      man - there are so many!

      pi - faith in chaos
      alien trilogy (yes, trilogy - the fourth abomination was not part of the alien series.)
      reqium to a dream
      matrix (one of the finest to ever come out of hollywood)
      true romance

      ...too many to list man. i can't pick a single all-time fav.
      The burden of originality is one that most people don't want to accept. They'd rather sit in front of the TV and let that tell them what they are suppose to like, what they're suppose to buy, and what they're suppose to laugh at. You have Beavis and Butthead telling you what music you're allowed to like and not like, and you've got sitcoms that have canned laughter that lets you know when to laugh if you're too stupid to know when the joke is. People are too lazy and too stupid to think for themselves because America has raised them that way.

        I hate saying it because it sounds so trendy (and I hate being trendy), but my favorites are "the matrix" and "fight club".

            the shawshank redemption
            schindler's list
            dr. strangelove
            fabuleux destin d'amélie poulin
            indiana jones 1
            indiana jones 2
            indiana jones 3
            godfather
            star wars the first one
            lawrence of arabia

                      I'll have to see it......

                      My favorite movie genre is the psychological thrillers, the ones that really make you second think reality.

                      I even liked "The Others" but it's a one time deal...

                        After seeing and reading "A Beautiful Mind", you have to think was John Nash on to something?

                        So it was kind of a psychological thriller without even meaning to be.

                          if you like psycological movies, chck out pi - it's a great flick!

                          "11:15 Restate my assumptions:

                          1. Mathematics is the language of nature.
                          2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers.
                          3. If you graph these numbers, patterns emerge. Therefore: There are patterns everywhere in nature."

                          Lightning rarely travels in a straight line or strikes in the same place twice. In fact, everything in nature seems to happen with a certain randomness. Often this is what make life interesting.

                          The natural world is full of different shapes and patterns, but the beauty of the perfect circle has always held a special intrigue for man. In his effort to define the form that he saw in the iris' of his loved one's eyes and in the glowing globes of the sun and moon, he divided the circumference of each circle by its diameter and discovered . In the continuing struggle to isolate an exact measure of this magic ratio, mystical meaning was attached to this omnipresent, infinite string of numbers that couldn't be defined by mankind's tools.

                          In , the movie, the pursuit of the infinite takes on a deeper meaning. Max Cohen is a number theorist living in New York obsessed with the pursuit of this potentially unsolvable problem. Yet, what the story and the age-old problem uncovers is the deeper link between the mysteries of life and other topics of consciousness as seemingly disparate as the stock market, the Kaballah, technology, our DNA, and the stars in the sky.

                          As we head toward the end of the millennium, science and religion seem to reconverge, attempting to answer the same questions. In the 21st century, technology and spirituality mirror each other. Living proof of this is found in Clint Mansell, who holed himself up in a Max Cohen-like existence, surrounded by old computer equipment and blinking CRT's, and emerged months later with the moving theme from . Tracks like Massive Attack's "Angel," and Autechre's "Kalpol Intro" are evidence of the living goo that fills the gaps between the ones and the zeroes. The dark, futuristic texture of tracks from Orbital and Spactime Continuum provide the ominous subplot and urgency of Max's journey. The desperate urban doom of David Holmes' "No Man's Land" and the third world ambiance of Banco De Gaia's "Drippy" all provide added texture to this profoundly stirring film.

                          The progressive electronic sounds of , and in fact this entire evolutionary trend in music, is the edgy and highly cerebral soundtrack to our lives. The artists that produce these landscapes of sound are the prophets that have come along to identify the bigger picture - to provide evidence of the soul in the machine.
