Monty Python and the holy grail
DnD movie
And all three LOTR movies. Extended of course.
My cat is sitting on my lap so you get both of ours combined together
- The Fifth Element
- The Matrix
- Dark City
- The Big Lebowski
- Burn After Reading
- Fargo
- Lost In Translation
- Snatch
- Grosse Pointe Blank
- Thor: Ragnarok
No way I can do all time, because my tastes change. However, I guess right now it’s:
- My neighbour Totoro
- Grave of the Fireflies, even though I can’t watch it
- into the spider verse
- knives out
- everything everywhere all at once
The top two there never really shift but the other three do all the time.
- LOTR: For staying close to the book while still being amazing.
- The Matrix: Still can’t forget walking out of the theater, everyone so silent with their minds collectively blown.
- Cinema Paradiso: For the way it shows the love for cinema.
- Life is Beautiful: For showing that only we control how we live our lives.
- Children of Heaven: For its depiction of love in its purest forms.

Bring It On, Liar Liar, The Hot Chick, House Party 4, and Burn After Reading
With exquisite taste, I embrace a diverse spectrum of films, from the captivating cheerleading rivalry and wit of “Bring It On” to Jim Carrey’s comedic brilliance in “Liar Liar,” and the hilarious escapades of body-swapping in “The Hot Chick.” “House Party 4” evokes a nostalgic charm, while the Coen brothers’ “Burn After Reading” showcases their unparalleled storytelling, leaving me captivated. This selection embodies my discerning taste and appreciation for a wide range of cinematic experiences.

Dead Man: A film by Jim Jarmusch starring Johnny Depp and Gary Farmer and an all-star cast. Beautiful acid western about friendship in harsh circumstances. Wonderful original soundtrack by Neil Young.
-
The Fall: A film by Tarsem. This films story isn’t necessarily amazing, but this is a love letter to classic cinema. It has a plot about classic cinema, and it uses all classic techniques to achieve the effects. Tarsem famously went out of their way to ensure there wasn’t any CGI in this film. It’s one of the most vividly colorful and visually stunning films I have ever seen.
-
Dreams: A film by Akira Kurosawa. A montage of short films inspired by dreams experienced by filmmaker Akira Kurosawa. In partnership with Lucasfilm. Almost as visually stunning as The Fall but much more cohesive stories for being inspired by dreams. Come for “The Peach Orchard,” and stay for “Village of the Watermills.”
-
Brazil: A film by Terry Gilliam starring Jonathan Pryce, Robert DeNiro, Kim Greist and Michael Palin. A treatise on dreams in a totalitarian society. The only cut worth watching is the Directors Cut. The film was famously butchered by the studios to give it a “happy ending” because the original was considered too bleak.
-
Sneakers: A film by Phil Alden Robinson starring Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, River Phoenix, and Ben Kingsley. One of the only films that ever presented a semi-realistic portrayal of hacking. Good plot, good pacing, and arguably prescient considerations.
Sneakers was my favorite movie when I was like 12. Which is a weird age for that and yet. (my other fav was The Hunt for Red October, so I was kind of a weird tween…)
The Fall is such an eye feast.
