World of Warcraft. I use to love the game but it became a slog and I got sick of making friends and getting to know people just for them to stop playing or for a guild to fall apart and then having to start all over again with new people. I met my wife in an mmo, and I would love to find a good one that can keep my attention and not be overly complicated, but I can't seem to find any.

I would pick something remarkably awful, like Valerian and the World of a Thousand Cities. And at the end of the movie would be a note that says "I have to live with this, and now you do too."

Never pass up a chance to fuck with future self's mind.

Probably the worst movie I have seen. Thanks for making me re-remember it.

Audiobook: Ready Player One narrated by Will Wheaton

That was a really fun book to listen to. He narrates the second one as well, but it didn't capture lightning in a bottle the same way.

Games: Nier Automata, Portal, and Ghost of Tsushima

Movies: Prince of Egypt, Confessions and The Prestige

Music: "Speak for Yourself" album, "Talent for Love" (Guilty pleasure), and, most musicals that I like (I love stumbling upon one I enjoy).

Probably Kid A, although I have memories so firmly attached to it that I don’t know that I’d want to.

If it's music with game: undertale times a billion

There are videos of people reacting to hearing Megadeth's Holy Wars... the Punishment Due for the first time. I enjoy the song, but I first heard it when I was probably like 10 and don't really remember the first time. Would be fun to hear it with a fresh pair of ears.

I think a Tribe Called Quests Excursions. Someone else mentioned that it's a shame losing all memories of a piece of music because we as a species associate music with our most precious memories. Here's the thing: Excursions is timeless and woven throughout my life. I've relistened to it so many times and got more from it as I've matured. I wonder how revolutionary and fresh it would feel to hear it today with my adult understanding of the world

Konstantine by Something Corporate, maybe.

Movie: The Guard

[–] random_character_a@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

From the top of my head I'd say Interstellar, but i don't enjoy movies alone. Needs another wipe or somebody who has lived on the moon.

[–] Xkaliber@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The Star Wars Franchise. I love A New Hope, but it would be ridiculous to Eternal Sunshine just that movie. Other standalone movies would be Oldboy, Martyrs and The Godfather. I'd love to revisit Nirvana's Nevermind, Pearl Jam's Vitalogy and MF Doom's Mmmm Food with a new generation. Imagine experiencing Joe Sacco's Palestine, Proust's Swann's Way, Harvey Pekar's American Splendor and Stephen King's Salem's Lot for the first time (again). I genuinely love this thought experiment...

In which order would you want to watch the saga?

[–] Xkaliber@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Same order as their release tbh. I personally prefer the 'big reveal' in Episode V compared to Episode III.

[–] ulkesh@beehaw.org 1 points 10 months ago

Firefly. Babylon 5. Avatar the Last Airbender. Lord of the Rings movie trilogy. β€œImagine” by John Lennon.

[–] iamanurd@midwest.social 1 points 10 months ago

Baby Shark. Take that, future self!

[–] dosse91@lemmy.trippy.pizza 1 points 10 months ago

Talos Principle, without a doubt. That game feels like it was made for me, I love puzzles, computers and philosophy and the first time was such a blast.

Og resident evil 2
