Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory
The Day After Tomorrow
Snowpiercer
If you know you know
Apparently I don’t know. 🙁
I 100% buy this.
The video on Snowpiecer being connected to Wonka is what convinced me to watch Snowpiecer. Fun movie
Decent TV show as well.
Is it the same idea? I saw it was a show but haven’t looked into it at all.
Similar premise but very different tone. The show is more of a survival drama while the movie is much more surrealist.
I’ll check it out, thanks.
If you’re looking for surrealist survival drama check out Scavengers Reign.
Titanic, Inception, Shutter Island.
Momento, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and 50 First Dates.
There will be blood
Unforgiven
No country for old men
This is a trilogy that’ll give you a good idea about America’s relationship with violence. At least until they make a (good) Blood Meridian movie

The Judge is just going to be impossible to cast unless The Big Show is willing to shave everything and play the part
I could picture someone like Peter Weller playing The Judge. Or maybe Ed Harris.
Yeah, if they had the body shape… but The Judge is like 7 foot 280lbs. When I read it the second time I though, oh who might have that same build so I can imagine how it works… Those big fucking wrestlers like The Big Show are the right size, except if they were bald and look like a baby/man
Sounds like you need Hafthor/The Mountain.
Yes that would be a very good choice, thanks!
Film is a different medium than literature. If I were a casting director, I’d be laser focused on finding an actor with the chops, and let the makeup/effects guys worry about physical appearance. Have you seen Barron Harkonnen in the new Dune films?
- Total Recall
- Dark City
- Inception
And:
- Memento
- The Notebook
- 50 First Dates
I like the flow of the second group, but I worry it’ll be entirely forgettable. Hyuk.
No, I like it: serious, sappy, happy, but always a love story.

If Dark City is the lynchpin (and an inspired choice, I agree) I might put it with the Matrix and … Gunkata. Or maybe V for Vendetta.
the rumor around hollywood is that a party was trying to come up with a movie impossible to make a sequel to, and then titanic came up and then someone said they could do it and started writing inception.
so maybe titanic then inception and then maybe strange days?
Inception is almost 100% someone remembering someone else’s trying to describe The Neuromancer. The link is the top, but it is a throwing star in The Neuromancer. The Matrix is also trying to do it but they did it in a more personal way
- WaLL-E
- Big Hero 6
- Terminator 2
- The Lawnmower Man
- eXistenZ
- Avalon
- I, Robot
- The Matrix
- (prequel) The Terminator
eXistenZ! That movie is so weird, but I love it.
Three modern Westerns, in order:
Sicario
Hell or High Water
Wind River
- Stardust
- The Golden Compass
- Hook
Heathers Pump up the Volume Better Off Dead
Some Like It Hot
Victor/ Victoria
Johnny Stecchino
Blood Freak
It’s Pat
Curse of the Cannibal Confederates
Nobody mentioned the cornetto trilogy yet?
Not exactly unrelated, but still
I’m pretty sure Charles Foster Kane was gay, only married beards, & couldn’t come to terms with his attraction to Leland, leading to heart break…
As a fan of happy endings, I suggest:
- Citizen Kane
- The Proposal
- Grumpy Old Men
