Oblivion is ok, but maybe too much 2001.
One thing that bothered me about Oblivion...

Tom Cruise is riding around in this jet thing, which is given to them by that mother ship... yet when he goes to escape he gets int he chase with the drones. Wouldn't you think that with all that technology they could just remotely take control of the ship and force it to land whereever they wanted?

That's what I was thinking during the film :)

    Ok a quick question about The Wolverine (2009): how the fuck could the kid Wolverine kill his real father, I mean doesn't he also have the same immune system?

    Nah, yo. Mutations aren't necessarily passed down generation to generation even if they are hereditary. Sometimes the gene has no effect or is dormant. Hence why dwarves can give birth to regular sized people and regular people can have kids with down syndrome.

    I need some mystery and mind fuck movies like Fight Club and Inception. Recommendations are welcome. :)

    I'm gonna watch Argo tonight most likely.
    If you are new to the mind-fuck genre - any Christopher Nolan movie. Guy was born to do this, nails it everytime. If you liked Inception, you should also like The Prestige and Memento. Both are great movies.

    If you have already seen these movies, then I'd recommend The Game or Twelwe Monkeys.

    The Place Beyond the Pines; good movie. Really liked how the story developed.

    The Past; Started very well, could have been ended in a much better way. There happened to be lots of mazes and mysteries throughout the film which the director tried to solve in the last 15 minutes.

    I grew to not like films of that genre. I'd avoid The Game btw :p

    @Dule90, L.A. Confidential, Insomnia, Following, Mystic River. Not quite a mystery but check out American History X if you haven't already.
