Movie Mondays: My Top 10 Favorite Movies: Bruce Willis

Movie Mondays are back for the fall and winter months!  I'm going to start of the "season" with Bruce Willis.  I'm anxious to see his new movie, Loopers.

In doing my research for this post I learned that Bruce was born in Germany and raised in New Jersey.  Hey, I lived in NJ for 14 years!  Who knew!  I'm somewhat of a action movie junkie.  I think that's why I like Bruce Willis.  In most of his movies he plays a cop, a hitman or someone in the military.

Bruce Willis trivia:

~High School Student Council President
~Originally cast as Terry Benedict in Ocean's Eleven (Andy Garcia was a better choice)
~Worked in a Chemical Factory before going to college
~Ad-libbed many of John McClane's one-liners in the Die Hard movies
~Was considered for the role of Kyle Reese in Terminator (1984)

Favorite personal quote:

"I'm much more proud of being a father than being an actor."
