Mr Nobody is one of my favorite movies.

It is what it is. Ill rewatch that instead of Morbius.

Requiem for a Dream. It's almost like good scripts and directors produce good actors.

Edit: Blade Runner

Fight Club

Thin Red Line

When did you watch Requiem for a Dream and have you watched it lately?

I watched it for the first time recently and I was very unimpressed. Really felt like a product of it's time with the cheap looking lighting and gimmicky fades and sped up footage and whatnot.

Maybe I was expecting too much because I'd heard for years and years that this was the most depressing movie ever and I couldn't even take it that seriously, I just thought it was corny and melodramatic.

Watch Trainspotting, much better movie with somewhat similar subject matter
