First time I saw SWINGERS it really put dating and the whole concept of "game" in perspective. Basically showed me that game is 99% mindset. You have to KNOW that you're money.

What's a movie that affected the way you look at things to this day?

    Clerks... It really made me think about dealing with people in the day to day setting. Its so funny yet so true at the same time how annoying people can be as customers about the most pointless things.

    The Color Purple. Great acting and it really showed you how life was for Blacks back during that time. I thought the whole Africa concept was ? but other than that, it's GOAT.

    Co-sign Clerks,I have been a clerk ? was like a documentary to me and my friends. Also Kids when i saw this movie in 95' it changed my perception on sex and how we as young people treat others(when they taunted the ? in the park and jumped the black dude)also how adults can neglect the thoughts and feelings of kids.You have to have constant communication with your children.

    Boys in the hood changed my perception on the ghetto,I was like Trey my cousins were like Doughboy and his crew.That movie made me want to do something with my life and not be a victim of the hood.

    co-sign,people think it's just an action movie, nah it's about life. Like when he talks to the architect that's supposed to be ? ,and the architect explains how this isn't the first matrix he had to make it less perfect because humans won't except perfection.Just like real life ? gave Adam and Eve perfection but they wouldn't except it so now we have today's world imperfect.

    After I saw that flick, I thought everything was a conspiracy. Wish the sequels didn't suck so bad.

    My Army buddy used to watch that all the time. Once was enough for me.

    I need to revisit that film. Not a big Kevin Smith fan, except for Jay and Silent Bob.
