Two things.
1. I had to cut one option out of the video and revert another to screenshots due to copyright claims, so if you left a comment on the last upload, it got deleted. I'll find a way to get the suggested movie into the next video like this.
2. As for Mullholland Drive, be sure to watch the 2001 release, as opposed to the 1999 pilot, which is different. Although, I think you might be hard-pressed to find the original since the theater adapted version is widely sold. (I think someone uploaded it to YT years back, but I don't know if it is still round).
Being John Malkovich isn't nearly talked about enough, I absolutely love it so glad you mentioned it. Will watch upstream colors soon you definitely sold me on that, love the others too expecially Mulholland Drive but personally I would've put Lost Highways . Thank you, love your work keep it up ✌️
Thanks! Hope you enjoy it! It's pretty unique and mostly overlooked.
Mr Nautilus you have such a good narrator voice and your vibes are very chill.
Thank you :)
I think Coherence would fit here, not about memory but the themes of identity and what people are willing to do are prevalent. It's a great low-budget Sci fi film about a dinner party that takes place on an evening when a rare cosmic event occurs.
Primer Shane Carruth (Upstream Colour director/writer) first film also has some Severance adjacent themes and vibes to it.
Yes. Coherence is great!
Coherence and Primer are both terrific!
One show I didn’t see pop up in the tv show lists was The Resort. It’s not as heavy as Severance but it’s got some good mystery, great characters, and a lot of great visuals and jokes along the way. I feel like it got overlooked. But it’s got Chidi from the Good Place and the lead from the USS McAlister episode of Black Mirror in it.
I think Mulholland Dr. is the best movie I've ever seen. It also benefits enormously, more than any other movie I've seen, from repeated viewings (even more than Memento, which also benefits tremendously). It's much easier to follow and digest when you can watch while already knowing what's coming. I've seen MD at least 10 times, and I still find new connections and allusions every single time I watch it.
To me, part of the key to enjoying MD is realizing that the multiple meanings are intentional. It's not supposed to have one specific meaning, nor does the viewer have to choose or build one interpretation to adopt. Instead, it's supposed to mean many things at once. It's not this or this or this... it's this AND this AND this. It's truly a masterpiece. 👍🏻
Brooooooo so happy to see Upstream Color on this list. No one talks about this film, it's a tragedy. I saw it twice in theatres, and the second time Carruth was there and did a Q&A. Loved loved it.
edit; Every single one a banger. Great list. I've seen all of them, but some I'm *long* overdue for a revisit so this is going to get me to do that.
Oooh. Dark City was wild. It's been like 25 years since I've seen it. Might run that one back again.
These are some great picks. Thanks for putting this together.
Some others movies that I think are cool are “Waking Life” by Richard Linklater, “The Thirteenth Floor,” by Josef Rusnak, and “The Fountain” by Darren Aronofsky.
A friend of mine and I saw The Fountain in the theater. We were the only ones in there and were also on psychedelics, so it was a truly amazing experience 😂. Waking Life is also fantastically trippy
Love your videos!! So good. Cant wait for season two!!!
Just throwing an idea out there- maybe a video on shows or movies like Silo? But kinda like severance too. With the bigger overarching theme about a protagonist who starts asking the “big” questions and unraveling an interesting story or background
One thing I want to mention regarding Being John Malkovich is that it played with the idea of "15 Minutes of Fame" so consider that when you're considering everything else. That film was bizarre tbh
Cool, another recommendation video! I throw one thing into the ring as well: the anime "Paprika" (2006). The tone is maybe not so much comparable, but the themes definitely are. You never know what's real and what's not in this movie! Probably the most mind-bending piece of media I've ever watched.
Love "Paprika". It came out the same year as one of my other faves "Tekkonkinkreet". Just as trippy and introspective.
Magnificent job!!! I’ve seen most of these and I’m so glad to have some more movies to look for while we keep waiting. Mulholland, Eternal Sunshine, and Memento are the greatest in my opinion. You do such a wonderful job every time. Thank you!!
If Severance was produced in the late 90's or beginning of 2000's, Jim Carrey would be a perfect fit for Mark's character
Anyway, Eternal Sunshine, Memento and Mulholland Drive are in my top 30 ever. Eternal and Memento being top 10 and Gattaca being my top 1, and this one I think is somehow correlated with Severance
What an absolutely delicious and delightful list of movies. Absolute bangers! 3 that I've seen and will now watch again, 2 that I knew about but forgot to watch and 1 new one. All of these movies will get watched again. One movie I thought about was "Upside Down" with Kirsten Dunst and Jim Sturgess. Great video as always.
Good picks! I might add Bergman's Persona to the list, too.
I've been hitting the DVD piles at my local Goodwill and Salvation Army thrift stores as this is prime shopping season for used DVDs. (Spring cleaning, you know.)
I love physical media because it is so easy to stop, pause, and replay certain scenes. And with these kinds of movies, like MEMENTO, I needed to do that a lot!
I just recently viewed ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND for the first time, and I'm glad I saw SEVERANCE first, because I would have thought it was really wacky otherwise. I definitely got the SEVERANCE vibe while watching it despite it being its own story. Two thumbs up!
I also scored a copy of the elusive MULHOLLAND DRIVE at The Goodwill. I can't believe I found this one! I have loved David Lynch's movies ever since I saw ERASERHEAD at a midnight showing at the Waverley Theater in the 1980s. MD is the kind of movie where I never know which side of dreamworld I'm on. Kind of like an Innie in the outside world...or an Outie in the inside world. MD is that kind of mind-bending experience.
DARK CITY was Roger Ebert's favorite film, so much so that he would go to a DARK CITY convention periodically. Of course he does the commentary on the DVD, and that makes all the difference.
I have had MEMENTO since it was on VHS tape, and it doesn't matter how many times I watch it, I always find something new. The story is told not only from the standpoint of someone with no memory but kind of backwards and forward. (Christopher Nolan films are always available at The Goodwill because Nolan believes in the medium, so there's lots of them and because his films are sometimes the kind that need multiple viewings. This is the granddaddy of Nolan films.)
I know I saw BEING JOHN MALKOVICH in the theater, but in that kind of environment, I can't really pay close attention. I found a DVD at the Salvos, but I haven't watched it yet. I guess I'd better.
Thanks for the recommendations!
P.S UPSTREAM COLOR is the only one I don't have, so I guess I'll have to stream it.
Great video! Thanks for the suggestions.
* sighs * * adds to watchlist *
I've been on Reddit too much.... Was almost like .. uuuh what.
@@orionishi6737 true... *zips back*
Are you going to watch Dark Matter? Its giving Severance vibes! Holding me over until season 2 😄
Mulholland Dr. is good but I highly suggest David Lynch's lesser known Lost Highway.
Not only is it about two intertwined stories that blurs how reliable the narrative is, but it also stars a much younger Patricia Arquette. Excellent movie and one that is worth watching more than once.
Watched a Mulholland Drive video that said the movie was about the casting couch. It was very well done. Thank you for these recommendations.
I’d humbly suggest a movie called Advantageous from 2015. Themes of identity and mind/body dichotomy tied into a work related story set in a vaguely futuristic world with an interesting twist. It gets mixed reviews but I loved it and have never stopped thinking about it. Love the channel!
Thank you for bringing this one up! Great suggestion! I'd forgotten about that one. I will add it to a future video.
Great list. I've seen 5 of the 6 and love those 5.
You what I just realized, I realized that this is the kind of conversation you’d have in the video store.
Damn you streaming and internet! We need a movie that really hits at these kinds of interactions that only happened before the internet as we know it now. And then stream it cause everyone needs to know….. *sigh*
Dulcet Nautilus - ya done got me with Upstream Color 😅 - bless your epiglottis!
🎉😊❤
*Bows*
I was hoping that would be the one! 😁
since you mentioned Prisoner, here are some others , Mr. Robot, Person of Interest, Fringe, Eureka, Counterpart, and The Umbrella Academy.
I'd add The Game with Michael Douglas
I remember Mullholland Drive.. that was a good movie!
I appreciate this video a lot! Believe it or not, I've seen every one of these except for Upstream Color. Guess I'm on the right channel! Lol!
My recommendation to add: The Congress. That one is a real trip, it's half live-action and half animated in a very trippy way. Explores things like identity and the loss of it, and what the purpose of life is. Think it fits!
That one is on my list to watch, so maybe I'll bump it up the list. The trailer for it really got my attention.
There's so many movies that can be on this list, basically any Gnostic-themed movie. Two obscure notables: The Game and Mother!
Dark City was one of Roger Ebert’s favorite movies, and in the years before his passing he taught classes on it to film students.
Glad to see Upstream Color here. It's a shame Shane won't be making any more movies. A Topiary was a wild script.
Love the channel dude. I apologise if you've already covered this in a prior video, but have you seen Silo? It's another amazing puzzle box style of show on apple tv
I actually watched recently some really interesting videos about Silo on his channel you should check em out
Oh yes, and I have a few videos on the channel. I'd say that and "Yellowjckets" are similar enough to recommend.
@@nautilusfiles oh shit, my bad! I'll check them out!
Have you seen the explainer video on mulholland drive by twin perfect? I literally finished a rewatch of that 5 minutes ago. That guy has it figured OUT man! He did one on twin peaks too, it’s 8 hours long and I’m convinced he cracked the code!
DARK CITY! Great choice. Truly incredible movie. The original director's version without the exposition at the beginning is the way to go.
Upstream Colors sounds interesting. And I’ve been meaning to watch Memento for years. Thanks!
Oh, Memento is a must if you like plot twists at decent pace. I think you'll like it!
Upstream Color and Primer are both worth a watch.
Does anyone know why season 2 is taking so long?
I think it was a combo of Ben Stiller’s schedule and also the writer’s strike?
been watching Dark Matter, and i'm starting to think something similar might be going on at Lumon. may explain Ms Casey/Gemma. i mean, remember Ricken's book reading when he mentions Schrodinger's cat? ((💡))
just an idea! ☮
OK, I need to check out Dark Matter. I've heard things from a few people, and I'm interested in find out for myself.
@@nautilusfiles it's really good!! the latest episode has a killer cliffhanger! Airs on Wednesdays on Apple ☮
You forgot to call us innies, thrill seekers of the other side
Thank you!!
John Malkovich was great in that jewel thief movie.
Gonna have to stock up on some movies now!
duko! Good to see you!
@@nautilusfiles always good to see you too!
“Carrot juice, my boy!”
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was released in 2004, not 1999.
Mistakes were made
They really should make a Bioshock movie, they could really make i very severance and lost
Thanks
Upstream Color is a fascinating film, yet quite tainted since it came out that Shane carruth stalked and harassed his co star of this film and apparently likes to choke people? It’s messed up
Eternal sunshine is my favorite film! But it’s not from 1998 😄
I loved Dark City!
Predestination
I’ve seen all these 😢 more, Nautilus, more 😂😂
Alright alright! 😂
PREDESTINATION
Clear your throat dude 🤢
Bravo stuff
