Rubber. The movie about the tire who woke up and chose violence.

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 12 hours ago

That movie is really terrible.

I always say everyone should see requiem for a dream, but no one should watch it. That film does more for stopping drug abuse than any government program ever did.

Wall-e

Bold of you to assume we'll be able to cooperate long enough to transport all of humanity off planet

They probably didn't. It's a single ship, not that big, and they only used one language on it.

The Hunger Games

[–] all-knight-party@fedia.io 28 points 23 hours ago (4 children)

Top Secret, by the same guys who did Naked Gun. I think it's somehow actually funnier on average than Naked Gun, even though that one's great, too.

Basically, I don't know if a human could watch it and not find it fucking amazingly funny. So dense with jokes, so creative with the execution, so many funny practical effects, you're constantly astounded that they created props and sets for such absurd humor, and it really works.

Children of Men is a madtapiece.

Everybody’s Everything. I knew nothing about Lil Peep and I absolutely loved the whole documentary.

[–] Samsy@lemmy.ml 19 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Since my movie taste is a bit of everything here is my colourful list:

  • Pans Labyrinth
  • Princess Mononoke
  • 12 Monkeys
  • Her
  • Parasite
  • Persepolis
  • The man from earth
[–] Drunemeton@lemmy.world 7 points 17 hours ago

12 Monkeys was unexpectedly good! Not many films can tell a story in that manner and pull it off.

Blade Runner

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 19 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Brazil. Should be mandatory after 9/11.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I came to say Brazil but what does it have to do with 9/11?

Flight of the Phoenix, the original B&W one from the 50s

Fantastically atmospheric, you can feel the tension all the way through the film

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 5 points 17 hours ago

To Kill A Mockingbird

And read the book.

[–] savvywolf@pawb.social 19 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. Not really the most profound or insightful, but it's just a good fun film.

Threads. Especially should be mandatory for politicians. To date one of the most accurate portrayals of nuclear war. It is not an uplifting movie.

[–] exocortex@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 17 hours ago

The Pianist

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 17 points 23 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

I've tried so hard to watch the film three times and always fell asleep. It's my bad for not starting it from where I left off but the intro is so good even if it's a bit slow-paced for me.

[–] million@lemmy.world 9 points 21 hours ago

Evil Dead 2

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 15 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

If you like dark humor, In Bruges is absolutely outstanding.

Last time a similar question was asked, I responded with Perfect Blue, The End of Evangelion, and Love & Pop.

So this time, I'm going to suggest Sans Soleil.

[–] lunarul@lemmy.world 7 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Some great ones were already mentioned. I'll add Life Is Beautiful (1997).
