The Fifth Element.
No one’s said Network (1976) yet. It’s so prescient it’s kind of scary.
The Burbs.
Office Space
Children of Men is a madtapiece.
Everybody’s Everything. I knew nothing about Lil Peep and I absolutely loved the whole documentary.
Wall-e
It’s our future if we don’t fix shit.
Bold of you to assume we’ll be able to cooperate long enough to transport all of humanity off planet
Touche
Idiocracy
Idiocracy is a funny movie that I enjoy. However I’m disturbed by the number of people who say it’s a documentary, or a warning. That’s because the central premise of the movie (that humans breed wrong and if nothing is done, we’ll devolve and society will collapse) also happens to be the central premise of Eugenics.
Hey, at least in Idiocracy, once they determined the guy to be smarter than everyone else, at least they put him in charge of things…
Honestly, I’m kind of put off watching the movie due to those weird eugenicsy undertones… Feels like one of those “i am very smart” Reddit people looking down on the “lesser masses” and saying they shouldn’t reproduce.
Welcome to Costco, I love you
That’s just movie to prepare you for the future.
To prepare for the future, all you need are electrolytes.
Camacho for president!
You spelled present day wrong.
The future is already here. It’s just unevenly distributed.
The Blues Brothers (1980).
Since my movie taste is a bit of everything here is my colourful list:
- Pans Labyrinth
- Princess Mononoke
- 12 Monkeys
- Her
- Parasite
- Persepolis
- The man from earth
Brazil. Should be mandatory after 9/11.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. Not really the most profound or insightful, but it’s just a good fun film.
That movie had no business being as good as it was.
I freaking love that movie but actually think it has a lot of depth. It shows a cgi cartoon character dealing with inevitability of death, fragility of life and mortality and value of what’s truly important. Side storylines about families, adoption, forgiveness etc but man does that wolf kill it.
- pulp fiction
- before I disappear (my personal favorite film of all time)
- Donnie Darko
- Momento
Good picks! I never heard of before I disappear, but based on everything else on the list, I should probably check it out! Thanks!
Definitely give it a watch. It’s actually on YouTube for free last I checked, well free with ads but just use an ad blocker
I always say everyone should see requiem for a dream, but no one should watch it. That film does more for stopping drug abuse than any government program ever did.
Top Secret, by the same guys who did Naked Gun. I think it’s somehow actually funnier on average than Naked Gun, even though that one’s great, too.
Basically, I don’t know if a human could watch it and not find it fucking amazingly funny. So dense with jokes, so creative with the execution, so many funny practical effects, you’re constantly astounded that they created props and sets for such absurd humor, and it really works.
Blazing saddles is up there with those movies too with just a bit more colourful language
If you like all of those, check out “The Wrong Guy”. Also if you like the amazing wonderful pure Dave Foley.
The joke with the boots is magnificent. Need to watch that again, been a while.
That one is pretty good! The entire scene with the shootout where everyone keeps breaking windows is my favorite. There are so many good gags in that scene, it’s ridiculous.
