I did indeed enjoy Gattaca, I'll check this out sometime.

My backlog of movies to watch is building at an alarming rate ._.

what in the hell, The clockwork orange has absolutely nothing to do with anarchy, its a movie about "ultra violence" and pavlov conditioning.

A great movie with anarchic tones would be V for Vendetta

Wall-E


it carries such a powerful message of where we are heading towards our future, and i'm very impressed by the animators and director of the film for their ability to convey emotions through the robot body language far better than most real-life acted movies.


Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, is highly recommended as well.

about intellectual movies, probably one (if not the most) deep thought provoking movie is Revolver

Its such a superb and intriguingly confusing way to expose the absurdities of the ego, all wrapped in a tarantinesque smoke curtain.

Watched all but I will want to add "21" to that list .. I dont see any in the recent posts adding that but i'm sure everyone watched it... and try to research something called "Variable Change"
and recently I liked the speech given Gerald Butler in the law abiding citizen... he gives it back to the judge.

A beautiful mind
Goodwill Hunting
Pi
Memento


the reason nobody in the 'recent' posts added "21" is cuz this thread is 5 years old lol.

that being said, I liked the usual suspects. interesting and underrated movie

I recently enjoyed Moon as well. Anything with Kevin Spacey and Clint Mansell has my definite interest. Mentioned earlier was The Fountain; had me ugly-crying in front of the 'rents my second time seeing it =\

My list of movies-to-watch just got a lot longer.
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

This movie was ok for 30 minutes, but once you realize what is going on it's just filler. Would have been better as a video game plot imo.

Hm, just read through the thread, and didn't see it there, so I'm strongly going to recommend American Psyco. Cool plot, and funny in a weird way.


This movie I always thought was either a huge troll or a dark comedy. I cannot believe it is meant to be taken serious. How is this intellectually stimualting?

Compared to Primer or Memento or Cube, nothing in this thread is intellectually stimulating though. We need more good movies like these.

edit- I forgot to mention The Man From Earth.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

I'm not really sure what the OP meant by 'intellectual movies' but I just listed some here that made me think.

Philosophy:
Being John Malkovich, I Heart Huckabees

Other ones that I liked:
Watchmen, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, No Country for Old Men

already mentioned once, but Oldboy is unbelievable. maybe the second best korean thing ever besides the sc scene. Spirited Away too, which was also already mentioned. And Princess Mononoke which is by the same director.

This was already said. "2001: A Space Odyssey" transcends existence. It will change your life.
Human teleportation, molecular decimation, breakdown and reformation is inherently purging. It makes a man acute.

Sans Soleil by Chris Marker (the guy who did La Jetee). It's in noway a traditional movie. It's more of an essay brought to life. I enjoyed it just because it's a change of pace.

Edit: For those about to read the next post. La Jetee was the inspiration for Twelve Monkeys

12 Monkies, a great portrayal of what it is like to be insane. Impressed me tons when i saw it. Not sure who bumped this 5 year old thread but lol@op for saying "nothing recent impressed me" then listing movies that came out within like three years of his post !_!
