GAG only allows 7 poll choices, so yes, there is no choice for Action/Adventure, Mystery, Thriller, Documentary, etc.

I love most in their own way, but comedy is great by itself or in addition to anything else. Who doesn’t love to laugh?

Another great genre is musical.

Basically anything but horror. I’m interested in the concept of it, but in any media it’s nothing more than gross stuff and jump scares. Or disturbing, for example “Blood and Honey”. (Which is getting a sequel? What are those people smoking?)

[Rangers]

Well, I really like Tarantino's movies, I guess that would be under drama/thriller

Although, for a man who doesn't write comedy, he sure does make me laugh quite a bit as well, so he's got it all

[At3mis24]

I like sci-fi and fantasy, but not romance. Only for Halloween I watch horror movies ; I'm a big fan of Ghibli movies: Kiki's delivery service, Arrietty, Totoro, Castle in the sky, Spirited away, Whisper of the heart...

[Simslover92]

Fantasy, Romance and Horror. If I had to choose one though out of these it would probably be Horror.

[Lliam]

I hate most horror movies.

I like classic monster movies, as well as 1950s and 60s B movies.

Some sci-fi films are good, but I'm generally not into it. Fuck CG effects.

I'm not all that into romance. Most of it is schlock. Hallmark movies make me barf. But I love some romance movies from the days of classic film.

Rom-coms can be really fun. My wife loves that genre.

Some action comedies are wonderful. I love Mr. Right, Killers, Bullets Over Broadway, Miss Congeniality, and stuff like that.

I love some comedies. Think of Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Cheech and Chong, Monte Python, some Peter Sellers and Woody Allen. But many recent comedians SUCK!

My favorite genre is action drama with lots of realistic action and killing. Except I hate sword shit and unrealistic martial arts. Fuck Asian bullshit.

[RetroReviews]

So action movies are no longer a category? Like Rambo, Terminator, Die Hard, mobsters, time cop, hard target, action jackson, speed, point break, lethal weapon, tango and cash... Yeah today's movies just don't do it for me too much CGI I want to watch a movie a film not a video game. So like Avatar never watched either one no interest because I find it boring 🤮 That's why I always say stay frosty, keep it retro and come Lord Jesus!

[OtterMan68]

GAG ONLY GIVES YOU SEVEN CHOICES! I could have put Noir, documentary, musical, animation...

[RetroReviews]

Well the abbreviation for girls ask guys is appropriate because the with their category limits yeah just GAG me with a spoon

[more_than_a_guy]

Firstly, my top ones are fantasy, comedy and horror, I guess fantasy takes the first place because it's a broad term and there are many fantasy genres in it. Sci-fi, romance, historical drama and western are cool too, but not in my top genres.

Secondly, western is a genre? By the pic I assume you mean the wild west. And it's a setting, not a genre. If you mean western movies in general, from the western cultures, it's still not a grene.

[Nikki1989]

Horror out of those, but I like documentaries over anything else.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I'll watch kid movies. Robot & alien movies is definitely one, just no gore or anything like that.

[AviatorTom]

I like to watch a mix of genres, but Sci-Fi is my favorite, what I watch the most.

[WhiteSteve]

Comedy for sure. Not totally sure what’s second place, but whatever it is, it’s distant.

[Siri137]

Science fiction, even though so much of it is quite terrible.

[zagor]

I like a well-made movie with an interesting story that draws me in, whatever the genre.

OK, kind of a cop-out, but I have faves in most of those.

[Starrrboy]

Anything but horror or Romance.. which can be frustrating because girls always love horror movies and I just don't want to crush her world lol..

[DrPepper12]

It's aspirational and a grand narrative with the best setting you could ask for.

[strateguy632]

sci fi with action is ny fave.

a close second is fantasy with action.

[Fireguy17]

out of those choices cowboy, otherwise action adventure & classic movies.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Sci-Fi and Fantasy, but the poll doesn't let me pick both.

[DrPepper12]

I saw that too. I'm an ADAMANT believer than dragons and time travel MUST be separated.

[TheSpaceGnome]

@DrPepper12 I'm not suggesting combining the two, I'm saying a like both science based fiction and fantasy based fiction equally, so it should let me pick both.

[KostasKouvalis]

You didn't put Action/Adventure. Definitely more popular than historical drama

[Iron_Man]

Action packed, good dialogue, and drama, and that represents Rocky the Rocky movies

[exitseven]

I like Science Fiction.

[XXblack88]

Out of the ones above Fantasy

[itsclearlynicholas]

Comedies make my day happier :)

[Sonorous]

Nothing beats sci-fi for me.

[DryGermanGuy]

Thriller/Suspense/Crime. Which you forgot. 🙂

[OtterMan68]

GAG only gives you seven choices! I could have added action/adventure too!

[Lynx122]

action +drama is usually the best :)

[msc545]

I like thrillers and romance and sci-fi films.

[NathanDavis]

usually... comedy

[Xia1994]

All of the above except horror

[laly520]

sci fi

[LiamJHayden]

I'm a Sci-Fi junkie.

[WeAreGeth]

We are fond of Sci-Fi.

[Agent_Elflord]

Historical dramas, mainly Bio-Pics and war movies.

[Dongie]

I love History.

[Dongie]

It doesn't have be factual just based in the past. But of course true stories are the best if at least a 125 years ago.

[DrPepper12]

American or World history?

[Dongie]

@DrPepper12
World much more than young America. But the guilded age, 1870's to 1900, with the rise of Carnegie, Rockefeller and the first tycoon's along with what Tesla brought about (fuck edison) are very interesting. And the WW's are very good to my tastes.
But going back 800 + years really grabs my attention.

[DrPepper12]

A man after my own heart! I never wanted to teach US history because I think USA Americans are too young n too dumb to have a proper history! Give me the grand global pageant!!

[Dongie]

@DrPepper12
Yeah, I mean we have a very interesting start against THE world power. True Frace gave a helping hand but as an underdog lover that's great history. I don't touch the civil war. Puke. But 1812 is also, being American, extremely pleasurable even though they burned down Dolly's House. No insult intended if you're British, I love England, Churchill and my favorite accent. Well I love the Scott's as well.
