Well, this is some pretty low-hanging fruit, so why not?

It’s impossible for me to choose just one, so I tried to narrow it down to 5 from (fairly) different genres. My favorites today are:

  • Scott Pilgrim vs the World
  • Inglorious Basterds
  • The End of Evangelion
  • Ghost in the Shell
  • The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

I’m a sucker for cyberpunk, existential crises, slow pans and quick dialog. Do I have shit taste (probably)? What are all your favorites?

    For an out there take relative to my age, I really enjoyed the 1957 film Sweet Smell of Success. I especially liked the quote:

    The cat’s in the bag, and the bag’s in the river.

    It’s just such a fun inversion of “cat’s out of the bag” that it really stuck with me. (I believe it got an homage in Breaking Bad?)
    In general, the whole movie is filled with pithy remarks while all parties involved are horrible people. It’s fantastic.
