I think for me it's alien: covenant. I was really interested in the ideas explored in prometheus and covenant just expanded on them. I don't get much into the details of why it is or isn't a good movie.

Luckily, though, HBO ran raised by wolves which really delved into ideals about AI and planet seeding etc. So that itch got way scratched even if the run was cut short.

Freddie Got Fingered. SOOOO ahead of its time. I love Tom Green.

    I understand praising the movie, but what about it was "ahead of its time"?

    The movie was filmed down the street from where I grew up, so maybe for that reason or just for whatever lack of parenting reason, I watched this movie multiple times at the age of like 8 or 9.

    I turned out okay, everything is fine. I think I need to rewatch it to check exactly in which ways it fucked me up.

    You're probably being sarcastic but the two guys that already commented on here are totally Fanboys of Freddy got fingered which is you know probably not good.

    Darn it! Sarcasm just doesn't come through in text... But you're probably dripping with it! There's no way a real person can say "I like Tom greens comedy" with a straight face.

    Hahaha I’m serious! I didn’t see the movie until recently, after it was critically panned from basically every reviewer. I watched it tripping with my partner and it was the fucking hardest we’ve laughed in a long time. Absolutely batshit. Love it.
