Looking at these lists really makes me glad that I don't share tastes with the average person at this point.
Citizen Kane
Paprika
Forrest Gump
Synecdoche, New York
All that monty python shit tells me that I'm in curated reddit-land where white mediocrity rules.
I dont think citizen kane is worth watching just as a movie today. It was a pioneer in its day but what was revolutionary then is just standard now.
If you watch it now it's just a realy old movie unless you are a film historian and know the context from which it was made.
I watched it for the first time recently. It was enjoyable still. I don't mind the glacial pace of old movies.
You could share your movies without being condescending, FYI.
"I'm so original! I'm not like other girls!"
"Especially basic white ones. I'll take my upvotes now. I'm glad this isn't reddit!"
I haven't seen Synecdoche in ages. Such a good movie. Mentally I have it in a category with Schizopolis, Happiness, and Magnolia because I watched them all around the same time and are are very much not the usual stories told.
Pleasantly surprised to see Paprika in someone's list, no one i know has ever even heard of it. Such a good weird movie.
