Do Movies Inspire You / Give You Hope?

[ilovenoodles]

The Lord of the rings movies inspire me, give me hope and make me feel happy.

One of my favorite movies is Amelie. It is just so beautiful, and I can relate to the protagonist a lot. I like movies that make me laugh or cry or both. Other favorites include Ghost World, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, About A Boy, Pride & Prejudice, The Young Victoria, Gran Torino, 500 Days of Summer, and Bridesmaids.

I think films give me a false sense of hope to be honest!

The Matrix

For those who have never heard of that movie, it is, as Lewis Black said, the movie that neoconservative politicians watch and think is real.

LOL the constant fear of getting your head bitten off by a walking corpse will dwarf and eclipse your social anxiety pretty quickly.

Movie thread!

These are all films that touch or inspire me in some way.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

It's one of my favorite movies, and I'm sure it would resonate with just about anyone afflicted with SA.

Alphaville

French new wave film. Dystopian/near-future scifi, has a very 1984 (the book) vibe. Worth watching for the philosophy alone.

Never Let Me Go

Technically scifi/alternate history, but only because of the premise (cloning). Examines the nature of love.

Moulin Rouge

Good god. Watch this. It (literally) changed my life.

Monsters

An alien quarantine isn't the usual setting for a love story, but it's surprisingly effective. Gorgeous cinematography. (I've a thing for scifi, if you haven't noticed.)

Blade Runner

You've probably heard of this one.

These are off the top of my head. I've a massive list of movies I keep somewhere, but I'd need to find it. Hope I can help someone with these though. ::

i think if that were to happen I'd just let them bite me so I can run around mindlessly eating people

I feel like people would be doing that even if they weren't zombies.

I like a lot French films, they are always very creative, deep and inspiring, for example "Amelie" is my favorite
