    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 saw The Matrix a few times in theaters and watched it regularly when the dvd came out.

          White Chicks

          Mean Girls

          The Devil Wears Prada

          The Proposal

          I like to shut my brain off and have simple entertainment that doesn’t require much thinking during watching watch time.

          My favourite movie of all time is Enemy 2013 and Black Swan but these are movies that go under your skin and everytime I watch them I have to go into spirals of overthinking etc while the above mentioned movies don’t give me that.

                There’s something about that close-to-home dystopian outlook that calms me. Now go away, I’m batin’!

                  Hackers. Yes, it's corny - cheesy, even - but it had a great cast with awesome chemistry, and it did a great job at capturing the zeitgeist of hacker/punk culture. Plus so many memorable quotes...

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

                          Romulus is better than it has any right to be. The Alien 3 “Assembly Cut” is also decent. Not good, but not awful.

                              The Thing (1982)

                              It’s my favorite movie of all time and I watch it every October.

                                  CLI + VR and specially GPUs to be able to hack in those UI... For a moment while watching Superman (2025) I had those flashbacks (Luthor's employees in fight scenes).

                                          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!
