Blythe then touched on his favorite movies. He named Lost In Translation as the first one, saying that he felt he was in Japan whenever he watched the movie.

“My favorite movie of all time is ‘Lost In Translation,'” Blythe said. “I’ve always watched that in Japan. I love that movie. It’s a beautiful, beautiful work. It’s great, and it’s nothing, like, explains the feeling of going to Japan for the first time. Better than anything I’ve ever seen.

“Very calm [movie]. You know, I’ve been to a lot of the places in the film, like, whenever I’m in Tokyo, I go to the Park Hyatt, which is in the film a lot of it takes place in a bar at the top of this hotel. [It] has a magnificent view of Tokyo. And I go there every time I’m there and go up there and have a non-alcoholic beer and just look out a Tokyo and think about Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson. It’s a beautiful film.”

Randy Blythe said he is a big fan of vampire films, saying: “I’m a big vampire geek… you know, anything with vampires; I’ll watch that.”

Concluding his words, Randy Blythe revealed his love for science fiction movies, saying: “I love Science Fiction stuff. So, I love Blade Runner.”

“I’m not a metalhead at all,” he said. “I don’t come from the metal scene; I come from the punk rock scene. Those were the shows that I went to and that I go to, to this day. Our first gigs were with punk bands.”
