      If I had to pick the two movies furthest away from each other in every way imaginable, it would be these two movies. You have broad tastes haha 😂

    For me it’s The Matrix.

    I never like to retread old ground, but this one’s an exception. It’s hard to overstate how much it blew our minds 26 years ago. I might have a soft spot for it too because I was raised sheltered and it was the first rated R movie I saw.

      I know they say it has nothing to do with them and their transitioning… but nothing can change my mind on how the whole movie can be seen as a struggle to choose who you really are…

      It’s a shame they didn’t make any sequels. The creators probably decided it was a complete story rather than milk it to death like Star wars. Guess that’s for the best!

    A Silent Voice/Koe no Natachi

    I’m currently learning Japanese, and this has been my go-to to rewatch without subtitles, picking up a little more each time I revisit it.

    Liar, liar.

    Nearly every single line in that movie that Jim Carrey delivers is not only funny but his delivery and antics are a work of art. It’s like watching Messi dribble the soccer ball. Cary ewles gets an honorary mention for playing the straightman and absolutely killing it.

        I’m so glad my gift could bring them closer together. My plan to phase myself out is nearly complete.

    Independence Day Rambo: First Blood North To Alaska Total Recall Open Season

    Yeah, my parents watched a lot of old shows while I was growing up so it kind of shaped my likes.

    As an oldster, I notice that almost all of the movies listed here are more than 20 years old. Most of the cultural references on Lemmy are much more recent than that.

    Most Villenueve movies are very rewatchable for me. Sicario, BR2049, Arrival, and the Dune films. Others like Incendies, Enemy, and Prisoners not as much, not because they are bad, but because they are pretty heavy to be watched repeatedly.
