@NerdyPotato do you have any movie ideas ? I'm really off the trends nowadays and have no clue what's going on..

@being one that popped up randomly in my head: "The Fountain". I think that could lead to some interesting conversations.
Three stories - one each from the past, present, and future - about men in pursuit of eternity with their love. A conquistador in Mayan country searches for the tree of life to free his captive queen; a medical researcher, working with various trees, looks for a cure that will save his dying wife; a space traveler, traveling with an aged tree encapsulated within a bubble, moves toward a dying star that's wrapped in a nebula; he seeks eternity with his love. The stories intersect and parallel; the quests fail and succeed.

@NerdyPotato wow that's a great thing here!:))

@being it's been many years since I saw it and still remember some of it, so that's certainly a good sign. It's both a cinematic masterpiece with the way the stories switch into each other and a interesting philosophical case study. I think you'd really enjoy it.

@NerdyPotato I'll watch it tomorrow..:)

@being I just watched it again and it's even better than I remembered. It's a bit of an acquired taste, with a rather random beginning and it gradually starts to make sense along the way, and even in the end it leaves things open for interpretation.
It absolutely flopped with the big public, but gained some popularity later on in more alternative circles. I think you can appreciate it though if you're tired of the typical Hollywood movies and would love to hear your opinion about it tomorrow.
