<p>If I were to make a "kin"list as the kids say (though, in the sense that I identify <i>with</i> the character rather than whatever frightening thing originated on Tumblr) Dr. Strangelove would be at the top of the list.</p>
<p>Fitting end. Most people don't like it. Those people are wrong.</p>
<h4>American Psycho (1991)</h4>
<p>Timeless.</p>
<h4>Reservoir Dogs (1992)</h4>
<p>Non-linear storytelling, popularized. Good heist movie and it doesn't even show the heist.</p>
<h4>Pulp Fiction (1994)</h4>
<p>Fun vibe.</p>
<h4>Hackers (1995)</h4>
<p>The classic. Gets too much hate. PowerPC is indeed the future.</p>
<h4>The End of Evangelion (1997)</h4>
<p>Bear with the beginning.</p>
<h4>La Vita è Bella (1997)</h4>
<p>Good comedy until halfway through. Definitely worthy of its accolades.</p>
<h4>Buffalo 66 (1998)</h4>
<p>One of the most underrated movies of all time. A bit much at some points. My grandparents didn't like it, but I did.</p>
<h4>Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998)</h4>
<p>Nevada, captured in one movie. Or at least, how I imagine it.</p>
<h4>The Matrix (1999)</h4>
<p>If you haven't seen it you may not be old enough for the whole world wide web thing.</p>
<h4>Kill Bill (Vol. 1, 2003; Vol. 2, 2004)</h4>
<p>A samurai western set in the early 2000s. Defined the decade. There is more perfect irony that it's played by someone named Uma (馬 (うま, "uma"), is Japanese for "horse" - samurai western, remember?). Maybe the movie was made for the actor (possible, considering Tarantino worked with Thurman on Pulp Fiction), maybe the actor was made for the movie. But I can't imagine Kill Bill being the same with any other star. The stylization is incredible and the fight scenes are well choreographed. There are so many things about this movie I love.</p>
<h4>Borat (2006)</h4>
<p>Funny but offensive.</p>
<h4>No Country for Old Men (2007)</h4>
<p>Music is used as a prop rather than a distraction.</p>
<p>There are two types of 80s business-driven sociopaths. Jordan Belfort is one and Patrick Bateman is another. You can't take your eyes off either.</p>
<p>Finally, a sequel made well after the original movie that's actually good. Watch it in high definition, the DVD doesn't capture the feeling as well. (I watched it in the theater myself but from what I've seen the Blu Ray does look nice).</p>
