-What’s a movie from the past 25 years that hasn’t gotten enough attention in your view? Something that punches way above its weight. 😇

-The spicier question. What’s a movie from that same time period that is very popular, including kind of in your own social circle, that you think is kind of mid or overrated but it’s too awkward to say, but you’ll drop it in a Nostr comment? 😈

The Fountain, an amazing SciFi Romance meditation on life and death. Highly underrated. Darren Aronofsky's greatest IMHO.

Overrated?

Interstellar. I fell asleep.

Interstellar was terrible. My wife and I almost couldn't finish it. I'm willing to give it another tey though, sometimes things change

Thanks for sharing this.

Looking forward to watching The Fountain.

Always on the lookout for good SciFi. A lot of junk dominates the genre, unfortunately.

I’ve not seen a SciFi Romance, that I can remember. This may be a first for me.

Both of the lead actors are great too, especially Hugh Jackman. He is capable of so much more than being The Wolverine. He did a great job of displaying emotional depth in this film.

For romance (more like romcoms; The Fountain is drama) with scifi: Safety Not Guaranteed, Kate and Leopold.

IMO, they are not amazing, but they are not bad either.

Cool, thank you. I usually watch SciFi alone. Safety Not Guaranteed sounds like something my wife and I can watch together.

I went to the movie theater one day and I didn't know what to watch. I ended up watching The Fountain, knowing absolutely nothing about it. It was a pleasant surprise.

Oh, I wish. I didn't learn of it until it had left theaters. Lucky you!
