Looking for some ideas of things to watch I like: animated, SF and comedy movies :)

    For SF, I recommend Primer. Its definitely a challenging movie as there’s no clear exposition, but I found myself wanting to watch it several times to piece it altogether.

      One of my favorite movies, it’s a trip. Anyone curious curious to watch it, don’t concern yourself with understanding every little thing. It’s a lot of implied ideas /throw away lines to give the scenes more natural qualities, allusions to stuff you’ll never hear about again that aren’t plot-relevant. Just soak it all in and then watch it again :)

      The only sad thing in hindsight is it has a pretty unnecessary slur (f—) in one part but it’s quick and, again unfortunately, pretty typical for the time it came out. Also kind of a tasteless joke about making their kid “wind up in the closet.”

      Still, well worth the watch. Short too! Like 80min.

      “They took what was needed from their surroundings and made from it something more.” (I think that’s the line lol)
