Creativity can be stimulated through movies and television - any show that is thought provoking and expands your mind will do it! So what shows have made such a profound switch in your minds that your behaviour and worldview changes? Here are some of our favourites that we will be sharing this week and why each of them is so special.

The Matrix

A movie that is very much talked about today due to the recent release of the forth movie, The Matrix Resurrections, the original Matrix opened in 1999 and was considered one of the best sci-fi shows around. It was a time when computer-generated imagery was revolutionizing special effects, video tapes were giving way to DVDs and mobile phones were fast becoming a must-have. The Matrix captured all that. It's a movie everyone remembers -- even if they haven't seen it. Having the coolest action sequences that have never been captured on film, it had jaw dropping visuals that will not look out of place even if you watch it today. The movie brought many new ideas into our vernacular including bullet time, virtual realities, simulation theories and red/blue pill choices. Owing to its success, many similar movies about simulations and virtual reality started coming out from Hollywood which were also good (for example Cameron Crowe’s 2001 thriller “Vanilla Sky” with Tom Cruise to Christopher Nolan’s 2010 classic “Inception” to Steven Spielberg’s 2018 adaptation of Ernest Cline’s novel “Ready Player One,” about a near-future in which people leave the trash-filled Earth behind by going into a virtual gaming world) but the Matrix came first and really changed how we perceive technology and humanity.
