In the past three days. I bumped a couple of really old threads

Memento is the only one I didn't fully grasp mainly because I wasn't paying close attention at the beginning.

Se7en was nuts, inception was surprisingly easy to follow though it took me a second there at the end to realize wtf had just happened.

Any movie(s) you recommend that fall in line with these? I think I'll watch Primer next.

To a much lesser extent, Thirteenth Floor and maybe The Cell.

If you didn't fully grasp Memento you'll need to be nice and awake and on your game for Primer, that one can be hard to follow.

I'd suggest Timecrimes as one in a similar vein as Primer.

With your list I think you'll like: The French Connection, Marathon Man, The Fugitive, Misery, F/X, The Hitcher, Blade Runner, Witness, No Way Out, The Usual Suspects, and North by Northwest.

Slevin is badass. Love that movie.

And Primer is fricking awesome. It's confusing for sure, but it makes enough sense and there are sites that can help you understand the way things work. But it's a great movie and may be the most realistic time travel movie ever.

Primer and Timecrimes are your best bets.

I'd add

Headhunters - For Prestige
Oblivion - For Inception
Femme Fatale - For Memento
The Spanish Prisoner - For Memento
12 Monkeys
Open Your Eyes
Frailty - For Seven


And Ravenous - Because if you like cool movies, you'll like Ravenous. And for Seven.

Also - In the Mouth of Madness - Screw the haters. It's a great film. Tons of fun.

Loved Frailty and 12 Monkeys. I'd add Identity to the list.

Shutter Island would be a good one.

And those are some great movies. Inception,Memento, and Se7en are some of my favorites of all time.

If only these posts were cans, I could say about the person downvoting every single one, "He hates these cans!"

Thanks for the suggestions, most of those are the ones that came up when I did my search. I'll start knocking em out

Gone Baby Gone

It's not time travel or even sci-fi but I think you'll dig it. Don't read ANYTHING about it before watching.

Then go watch some Lynch. Start with Mullholand Dr
