I mean, I get the importance of Ed, but I always thought of Llewelyn as the main character.

Of all the post apocalyptic movies I've seen -and the 80's had a metric shit ton of them-loved both of these gems. And yes, it's a nice variation. I always thought the Mad Max series would prove prophetic as well. Mostly the first one.

Reply to Origin of James Hong's code name "Alpha" in "Everything Everywhere All at Once" by LawbringerBri
They came from the Alpha Verse, meaning everyone that joined them about halfway through the film was an Alpha version of their normal selves.
Hard to say who picked though.

From your list, The Matrix was easily the most impactful when I first saw it. Especially with the perfect opening, where you're wondering the whole time, 'what the hell am I watching?!'
From my list, The Matrix would still rank high, but it would probably be Mulholland Drive at #1. Other movies are mind-blowing because of plot developments. David Lynch movies are mind-blowing because they play out like fever dreams onscreen. Watching Mulholland Drive for the first time felt like a waking nightmare.

Reply to comment by OnlyMamaKnows in Does anyone thinks the pacing of Everything, Everywhere, All at Once was a little off at the mid point? by jcgonzmo
Terrifier 2 had a similar runtime, but unlike EEAAO, it was tightly paced and flew by imo.

The OG Ghostbusters is scary for a kid. Same for GB2. The “Flying ghost babysitter” creeped me out as a kid.

If I had to argue for who is the main character I'd probably say Turkish, but there are entire groups of characters that never interact with him.

Yeah, the soundtrack is badass too. I believe I used to use "Snake's theme" as my entrance music when my friends & I borrowed camcorders and made lame pro-wrestling videos.

Second act was good imo, it's actually the third act where the film started to lose me, and jokes that were really funny early on started getting repetitive. Felt at least 20-30 minutes too long and the action towards the end became less and less engaging
