Somewhere I'd like to go: a Buddhist temple or monastery in Japan
Someone I know: hmm that's difficult actually... I can't think of anyone with B right now
A film I like: I am tempted to write Batman Begins but I have Bruce up there already so I'll go with Billy Elliot :-) which I loved for the music and the dancing and the Northern accent!
A book I like: Brimstone - one of many installments of Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child's series around a FBI agent (the first one was made into a movie: Relic). I started reading this while still at school and it expanded my vocabulary in the field of crime, anthropology and many other fields *g* The books are well written and you always learn something (usually history, anthropology, science...) I also like the characters a lot, many are introduced in the series, some pop up now and then, some are regulars. Now that I think of it, part of the reason I like this so much is because it's basically another Holmes-inspired crime-series. The agent is frighteningly intelligent and constructs his cases from details others miss. :-) He doesn't really have a Watson equivalent but there's a police detective he works with for a couple of novels who fits Lestrade and Watson elements.
