Given I had probably seen Battle Royale ten times in the span of a week as a teenager..... And Twister has been a hyperfixation since I was nine.... And Ringu still holds up to this day..... Ten times is waaaaaaay too low for these films

I could never, ever tire of this man's voice, not his words, nor his lived experience. Harrowing life reflected in most things he poured himself into. Dayum. Tearing up just thinking about him

Ugh. I don't care for superhero films. But as a kid, those first two Spiderman and X-Men films were top tier cinema, do let's go with this one.
Close second is Watchmen, this cinches it because I can be a kid again!!
X-Men 2

I'd normally say anything by Warning or 40 Watt Sun but couldn't narrow down my choices so went with this.
Tears every single time. Dayum.

I saw with a bunch of streamers for that year's Berlinale and my god did it have me grinning from ear to ear and filling my heart with pure joy. It's tough in places but this is happiness in film form

My favourite auteur. His work deconstructed form, genre, narrative, history, and traditions, reconstructing everything with pure genius.
Back when I used to be a semi-competent writer, I compiled this list. I highly recommend his Sapporo Winter Olympics film!

It's been a while since I gave y'all a horror film to gawk at, so why not choose the film that inspired my undergrad dissertation as well as my own existential ennui and overwhelming sadness, eh?

Shout-out to Ken Burns' The Vietnam War for introducing me to this and so many other choice cuts from the era. I freakin' love this record and it has been on repeat a fair bit as of late!

To say I quickly became enamoured with Masahiro Shinoda's work would be a gross understatement. And this one, though not quite my favourite of his, is a shining example of cinema at it's most deconstructed

Without resorting to bands whose members are no longer with us, I typically go for In Solitude for this category.
But not today, baby!

But I also realised: 2025 marks two decades since I fell head over heels in love with music. And Ayumi Hamasaki was one of those first artists I got into myself.
Twenty years of sonic voyaging...

When I say this film is responsible for the puny human I have become, I understand red flags to be raised for some of y'all.
But it is also a gross understatement. Nothing impacted me quite like this

Let's be real for a moment, I think everyone should listen to what I tell them to listen to 😉 and this has been one of those songs I go to first - the very definition of epic!

Does this count as a fantasy world? In an attempt to not go for the obviously obvious answer (you know the ones) I say that yes, yes this does. Goddamn I love this so much!

Have I picked a Doors song yet? No? Good. Because we are going with this one. Because I said so!
Soft, driven, slow and mad, like some new language.

Is this the healthiest film I could have picked for this? Far from it. But considering who I am, especially around the people I fall for, I saw a lot of myself in Miles. Hopefully not -as- pathetic!
