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

      I freaking love that movie but actually think it has a lot of depth. It shows a cgi cartoon character dealing with inevitability of death, fragility of life and mortality and value of what’s truly important. Side storylines about families, adoption, forgiveness etc but man does that wolf kill it.

    There are many but if I have to name just one it would be the godfather.

      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.

      Good picks! I never heard of before I disappear, but based on everything else on the list, I should probably check it out! Thanks!

    We’re gonna get a lot of the more standard “Perfect movies” so I’m going to stick with some of the ones that may not be “perfect movies” but I found personally always enjoy

    • Ex Machina - Fucks with your mind through the entire movie, and leaves you bewildered at the end

    • Ocean’s 11, the Clooney version personally, I watch this regularly and is my favorite heist movie

    • Seeking a friend for the end of the world - Tears, but it’s a movie that’s worth a watch - but I can never rewatch it.

    • The Whale - just last year, another amazing movie that has to be watched, but you will probably never be able to rewatch it.

    • The Theory of Everything - Personally this movie is what started me out from “Movies are cool action things I go with friends to see” to “Maybe movies can evoke emotions that I didn’t know I could fully appreciate”, and for those here who have seen me comment on movies before, this is where Felicity Jones became my favorite actress. You forget your watching a movie, and she became Jane Hawking in it, and it’s the first movie I legit cried to. It hurt me deep. Eddie Redmayne did a wonderful job, fully embodying Steven as well, to the point that again you forget you are watching a movie.

    And one more because what the hell

    • Imitation Game - Bendlydoodle Cuddlefish and Kiera Knightley tell the story of Alan Turing. I say it should be mandatory watching for any computer/IT/programmer nerd out there, and I won’t say why it’s 100% worth a watch, but it’s there.

    None of these would I nominate as best movie of all time, I just went through my list of most watched movies and these stuck out

      I saw Oppenheimer in theaters and spent the entire time going: “this is just imitation game but everyone sucks and instead of saving millions of lives and being punished by your government for it… The man kills millions of people and then gets awarded for it…”

      I definitely need to rewatch it.

      That’s Alan Turing the traitor as played by Sherlock Holmes?

      It is a film with a great list of cheap tropes to avoid.

    Been watching a movie per day for quite a long time now. There are many great ones. Just watch all the genres from all over the world and from different decades, you’ll find them.
