2. The Matrix, just the original

Yes, it was stupid, but the paradigm of breaking out of a constructed reality into the real thing was a good metaphor for shaking off Astroturfed populism in favor of the real thing.

Back to basics, perhaps?

War and Peace?

4. No. please, No Mel Gibson flicks

Braveheart was crap, with a whole lot of gouged eyeballs, and pikes through faces.
Hateful Homophobic crap.

Do you remember the scene where the prince's effeminate "friend" got thrown to his death over a balcony, for comic relief??
The whole theater laughed.
I did not. I guess I have no sense of humor.
Inoccent youths falling to their death because they are limp-wristed, and lisp, just does'nt strike my funny bone.
