    Interstellar. I so sincerely regret not seeing it on the big screen.

      It was a very intense experience in the cinema. Some sequences -docking, waves, tesseract…- were absolutely spectacular

        I got to see it opening weekend with my mom and stepdad who took me to see it because I wasn’t 13 yet but was absolutely obsessed with dinosaurs to a more academic extent than your average 9 year old even has any business being. The box office had a giant hand sculpted pterodactyl in a nest on top of it which was one of the coolest things ever.

        You should also definitely read the books, there is a much stronger emphasis on how capitalism makes everything shittier and endangers workers and compromises scientific integrity, which makes it especially shameful that toward the end of his life Crichton turned into a fuckin climate change denying right wing crank.

    it’s hard to pick, but i really like Possessor (2020), it’s a cool dystopian science fiction horror-ish movie that scratches a lot of my itches

    i also rate some of the Andy Kaufman movies really high, like Synechdoche, New York (2008) and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)

    most of my favourite movies are just mindfucks about identity or memory, because that’s the flavour of my mental illnesses, lol
