The mannerisms and cadence in the voice is what does it for me, but I also watched The Crow while absurdly high on cough syrup because I was desperately trying to force the flu out of me and also I was retarded and 16.

Dark City thought it was smart, but actually it was dumb. However, I think probably The Cube took place beneath that city.

It is a lot like when a five year old walks out of a movie theater telling you Transformers 4 is the best ever when a few hours ago they were insisting that the video they were watching of Land Before Time part 19 was the best movie ever.

Heath Ledger's Joker was actually a lot like 1970s Tom Waits. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCSc6E4yG9s

Fight Club kinda fits in there as well. Same reason why the 90s had so much Tipper Gore "think of the children" moralising, identity politics, and Dale Gribble-level anti-government consporacy theories; Since the Berlin wall fell we didn't have a scary monolithic foreign enemy to distract us so we looked inward for conflict. Then 9/11 happened and our movies were about being brave enough to torture people.

I think Equilibrium was the last movie of that type. That movie was really badass but really stupid at the same time.

Dark City is like The Shining and Star Trek Voyager. I can't imagine why anyone would like them on any level, and when someone IRL says they do I actually think less of them as a person to the point of politely avoiding them in social situations.
