Some people want to be able to watch a movie “for the first time” all over again. Others want to forget a rubbish one. If you could remove just one movie from your memory, which would it be?

    The Matrix. Blew my fucking mind the first time I saw it. It’s awesome on repeat viewings, but that first watch is magical.

      Could you imagine forgetting The Matrix, but not the sequels?

        Wait, is this a good genie wish or an evil genie wish? I feel like the spirit of the wish would make me forget sequels to any movie I specify or that’d just make it impossible to properly forget.

        Perhaps you did saw it but managed to gmforget it to watch it again.

        Realistically the matrix is a bad idea to forget, if you watched it when it came out it was awesome, if you watch it for the first time now it’s sort of obsoleted and slow. I still like it, but I think it’s because I first saw it when it came out.
