Jupiter Ascending

Event Horizon. Hereditary/Midsommer may be close seconds.

Favorite good movie: Shawshank Redemption

Favorite bad movie: Hackers

It's a tie between Goodfellas and The Big Lebowski.

Withnail and I. Ludicrously quotable.

One of my favorites that I don't often see mentioned is Upgrade. It's very nearly perfect as a near-future cyberpunk dystopia.

Being John Malkovich

the story is just so out there and it's excellently acted and directed. chef's kiss

The movie that is constantly being re-watched, and I guess has become my happy place in the last 10 years, is The Martian

Ratatouille.

Seven Samurai

Elysium

I re-watch from time to time to check where we're at.

Oh brother, where art thou?

Man of constant sorrow. Nuff said

No one ever mentions this movie but my favorite movie is The Fountain, with Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz.

It's basically a love story set in three timelines, with absolutely amazing music, dark storytelling, and an unbelievably satisfying ending. A lot of it is left up to interpretation but it's not overly complicated. Cemented me as a huge fan of Aronofsky even if he's not always a pop culture favorite.

Strictly Ballroom

Literally can't choose ONE. Have to be Babel, Y tú mamá tambien, Roma, and Cars (yes pixar). Even putting those out there, I feel mad not including the petrified forest, taxi driver, or Wall-E

My absolute favorite that I rewatch constantly is Supertroopers. If I only had 1 movie to be able to rewatch forever, it would be that one

I'll throw this one out there "Dogville"

Frozen II

Cinema Paradiso

Honorable mentions for Galaxy Quest and Heist.

Waking Life

Clerks, because when I was 22 years before I ever saw that movie I to ran my convince store just like that. Also totally relate to the crap customers you deal with in that setting.

V for vendetta

E.T.

I am absolutely charmed by the characters, the story, the optimism, and the connection to the unknown.
