    Up In the Air. Great movie. Made a ngga slow down on tryin to make millions for a sec and appreciate just havin a job. They hired actual people who were recently fired for the 'You're fired' scenes

    At the time it also made me want to have grown and sophisticated flings when i traveled for business

    1.Crash as the OP mentioned it showed that people are not one way, that everyone is capable of good and evil. Random fact & spoiler:Larenz Tate scene was eerily similar to Enis Cosby death,Bill Cosby son

    2. Once were Warriors- made me really think twice about who you get into relationships with

    3. City of ? - just made me think of Karma and if you do the right thing it will all work in the end. You can't escape fate.

    4.Alpha Dog- makes me never want to hang or be friends with drug dealers, family, friends,etc nobody

    5. First 48..not a movie but two episodes stuck with me. One where a teen was dating a drug dealer and was a his house chilling, when a rival dealer came to the house and killed her. Made me not want to hang around any drug dealers or gang members.

    2nd- a guy killed two his friends while the 3 of them were chilling in the car, 2 guys and a girl. The couple robbed him at gun point before, they were in the car and they asked him "are you good?" referring to the robbery he said yes, but then he said the vibe in the car changed and he killed them because he thought they were gonna rob him again. If anyone knows this episode let me know Ive been trying to find it, I thought the court should go easy on him because he of what they did to him before.

    ^ both episodes made me rethink who I hang around.

    I don't know who was more stupid: the guy who still hung with people that robbed him at gunpoint or the couple who still felt like it was a good idea to hang with someone they robbed at gunpoint. Probably the latter since the former was probably only hanging with them to ? them.

    The Matrix and inception. I'd seen it before but never high. Me and my college roommates watched that, shutter island, and inception all in one afternoon on girl scout cookies and had somehow connected all the movies together. ? were really trying to figure out how one of us could fall asleep while the others could implant thoughts in his head. Is this world real? Smh Morehouse ? "philosophizing" while high smh. Good times

    I had lost my job not too long before i watched it. Really helped me get through some rough times. After that and the Descendants, clooney became GOATr. Up in the air and watchmen were the two best flicks I saw that year.

    Im not sure what won the oscar that year but im 99% sure that Up In The Air deserved it more.
