Not a movie, but the new HBO show Westworld is really interesting so far. The themes in it remind of alot of the more far out ideas people get into their head in the context of the DMT experience and talk about here. Can you see the similarities too??

I think we all construct realities for ourselves already in different ways; it doesn't have to be through drugs or technology. But the show is working to explore what it's like to be a creator of such realities, and I think this can tell us more about the tales we weave for ourselves, whether through culture, emotions, or psychedelics.

Wow this show is philosophicaly interesting on so many levels. I havent even thought about the show in the context your proposing yet. For me it was the similarities to what some people experience during DMT that got me listening. For example when people get shown by enitites how our reality really works and getting permitted a look behind the curtain. Its like the hosts(the robots) in the show, that slowly start to experience more and more reality shattering events. Also the theme of forgetfulness reminded me of this forum. That sometimes its a blessing to forget the terrors one experiences. (https://www.dmt-nexus.me/forum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=13605 this thread fits in here well..) Then of course there also is the whole theme of who we are when we are freed from moral obligations.

I love Hunter S. Thompson! Everything he touches is weird and trippy and off the wall. Such a unique human. He left quite an impression on me for dang sure! Check out this documentary about him, it's pretty good!

just saw an amazing movie, it's soooo good i saw it 4 times in a row... cinematography, locations, costumes, editing, music, sound... blew my mind. i am not even mentioning direction and script. dialogues are very condensed, every word counts, literally, so without a good translation, or understanding the native language the movie is in, you'll be left with a scrambled mind... so be warned. "A Dragon Arrives!". INSANELY GOOD. the iranian david lynch++. any iranians to chime in with cultural background? what about the reality bending camel, similar but more powerfull to lynch's mystery cowboy ? what about the scary witch with weird mask (?) distributing psychedelic cigarettes (rue?)? and what about the sect, the witch belongs to, doing goat sacrifices and their scary medium shown in trance? and what about the dragon itself, is that really a "dragon" and how significant such a beast is in persian mythology/folklore? mind blown. worth procuring at any price. multiple viewings guaranteed

Another good (martial arts) movies is: Judge Archer (2012) Feat. Ju Yuan Hao(not a lead role, but NOT an extra), One(1) our personal aquaintances (intezam), about 01:22 mins into the movie (trad. ''kamaan'' horn bow archery is intezam passion). Also feat. his workshops at the end of movie. We think this movie is also to honor this bowyer. The movie itself is pretty weird, you may have to watch it moar then One(1) time. Quote:22:05 THE MOMENTUM OF THE TREE IS OVERPOWERING YOU !!? ....just One(1) of the great quotes from the movie....and there are moar.By coincidence we dreamt of (old) suitcases last night....   Quote:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2543698/ also featuring: nashi pear and accordeon (and donkey)..... How this movies successfully passed by the PROC censor is still a riddle to we.... since the link is not easy to find, we put One(1) here.

Terence McKenna's True Hallucinations (2016)
A lot of great material I'd never seen before.

I watched Adam and Paul again the other night. Plenty of pathos. It's kind of like a poor man's Trainspotting, only better. I enjoyed Trainspotting but it seemed to me to be a bit like a Calvin Klein advert for heroin.

Nashi pears and accordions? Sounds exactly like my backyard!
