They Live
I grew up with Duke Nukem and later found a lot of his quotes were from that movie.
Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgement Day
*The Terminator […]
They dropped, for whatever reason, the The after the first movie.
Because there’s always more than one after that haha
He’s no longer The Terminator, just A Terminator
Thanks :) The The: also a good band, btw.

I fucking love In the Loop, but it took me a few viewings to understand what the hell was going on. I should watch it again.
The TV show was really good too, but the movie captures the absurdity so well.

My Neighbour Totoro over Princess Mononoke and Howl’s Moving Castle though?
My neighbor Totoro is a kids movie and probably one of the best one there is because it’s about them, it’s not a princess movie, the others aren’t really aimed at kids so they can’t really be compared.
My Neighbour Totoro is unique. In this film kids actually act and talk like kids. It is extremely imaginative and magical while not trying to be epic. It treats the audience as intelligent, curious people, giving a lot of quiet thinking space in between scenes.
It is a masterpiece of film making. The other Studio Ghibili films are good, but Totoro remains to be my favourite.
I watch eternal sunshine most times i see it on, but some days I just don’t have the energy. It’s so good, but also exhausting.

Equilibrium
Amélie
