Pans Labyrinth

I especially love that it’s one of the few dark fantasy movies natively made in Spanish. Fun fact, the faun speaks medieval Spanish

The Big Lebowski if I’m forced to pick just one.

The fifth element, it was on cable a lot when I was a kid so the chances of me falling asleep while it was playing in the background were high and I guess it became a subconscious association

Ready Player One. It’s a terrible movie that adapts a terrible book, but for some reason the vibe just entertains me and makes me feel comfortable. I don’t know either.

The Mummy

Tremors is up there for me. Every couple of years I revisit it and have just as much time as the last.

God Bless America

Star Trek pre 2005 any series and DS9 only if i need to really sleep like a baby.

For the movies anything but nemesis

I’ve got Plex playlists that I sometimes just put on repeat when working or going to sleep:

Harry Potter

Star Wars

Lord of the Rings

Pirates of the Caribbean

Matrix probably.

Not a movie, but mysteries at the museum puts me to sleep every time. They reuse the same overblown words for everything so it winds up that every single item they talk about sounds alike. Between that repetition and the guys metronomic cadence and almost whispery voice, puts me to sleep every time.

Idiocracy has been my go to for the past several years. Before that, Super Troopers. Or maybe Dazed and Confused.

In no particular order:

• Sahara
• Hercules (1997 animated version)
• Mulan (1998 animated version)
• 27 Dresses
• Jurassic Park (although probably not for sleeping given all the screaming, lol)

Comfort movie: Matilda

Movie I could watch 1000 times: The Lion King (1994)

Jacob’s Ladder
