<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 some of (if not <i>the</i> most interesting in any movie. There are so many things about this movie I love.</p>
<h4>ゴジラ ("gojira") (1954)</h4>
<p>The classic! I don't think any Gojira movie since has been able to capture the horrors of the atom like this one.</p>
<h4>シン ゴジラ ("shin gojira") (2016)</h4>
<h4>シンゴジラ ("shin gojira") (2016)</h4>
<p>Hideaki Anno made the only true Gojira sequel (in my opinion, but I haven't seen them all) a couple years ago, and damn is it good. Gojira isn't just some satirical tyrant of the sea, it is a monster! Anno understood this. The scale of Neon Genesis Evangelion with all the primal horror and technical evolution that comes with it.</p>
<h4>The End of Evangelion (1997)</h4>
<p>Bear with the beginning and you'll find this to be a very good movie. I don't consider it canon to Neon Genesis Evangelion myself but it deserves the respect the original series has.</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>
<h4>La Vita è Bella (1997)</h4>
<p>French movie set in the holocaust. I didn't realize it was set in the holocaust until the second act. Will make you cry, probably.</p>
<h4>A Boy and His Dog</h4>
<h4>A Boy and His Dog (1975)</h4>
<p>Don't watch this with your family unless they're all grown up. Nuclear war movie set tomorrow, in a year that happened already. I know not of what weapons World War III will be fought with, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. This movie tells of the sticks and stones.</p>
<h4>Dr. Strangelove</h4>
<h4>Dr. Strangelove (1964)</h4>
<p>A prequel to A Boy and His Dog, not in spirit but in events. Title character gets maybe ten lines and they're all flawless. I've seen this movie five times and I'll probably fifty more.</p>
<h4>Citizen Kane</h4>
<h4>Citizen Kane (1941)</h4>
<p>When I saw it at eight years old it was a snoozefest to me. When I saw it at fifteen I was enamored. Excellent movie but one that requires a certain maturity.</p>
<h4>A Clockwork Orange</h4>
<h4>A Clockwork Orange (1971)</h4>
<p>Banned everywhere, loved by everyone. Everyone gets what they deserve and some get a little more.</p>
<h4>Halloween (1978)</h4>
<p>A horror movie that treats the viewers with some respect.</h4>
<h4>Midnight Cowboy</h4>
<h4>Midnight Cowboy (1969)</h4>
<p>You'll cry during this one. Leave the kids at home, preferably outside the fifty-mile radius around where you'll watch this movie. Dustin Hoffman's in it, also it's rated X by the MPAA.</p>
<h4>Network</h4>
<h4>Network (1976)</h4>
<p>Fox News if it was run by Scientologists.</p>
<h4>Reservoir Dogs</h4>
<h4>Reservoir Dogs (1992)</h4>
<p>Non-linear storytelling got its start here. The best heist movie, maybe ever, and it doesn't even show the heist.</p>
<h4>The Great Dictator</h4>
<h4>The Great Dictator (1940)</h4>
<p>One of Charlie Chaplin's few speaking roles. His best.</p>
<h4>Taxi Driver</h4>
<p>God, I fucking love this movie. All incels wish to be the protagonist, and none ever could be.</p>
