If you could preserve 3 movies post 90s in a time capsule that will be open in 100 years, which ones would you choose and why?

Posted by CapitaineBiscotte

Movies are old but modern movies are quite young. We managed to preserve movies dating back to the last 100-150 years but we can also see how it has evolved over time. Maybe it will be completely different in 100 years so you are given the task to preserve 3 ‘modern’ movies for future generations in a time capsule.

Don't want to influence people playing this fun game, but maybe afterwards take a look at the movies accepted to the National FIlm Registry >[Movies in the past 30 years](https://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/library-of-congress-movies) >[The whole list](https://www.loc.gov/programs/national-film-preservation-board/film-registry/complete-national-film-registry-listing/)

There's not a single Marvel movie that they've considered culturally affecting. They need to up their game.

tough one, but i’d go with *The Matrix*, *Pulp Fiction*, and *Spirited Away*—those flicks really define storytelling and tech for their time and are classics for a reason. future kids gotta see what we were all about!

Interstellar, The Matrix, and There Will Be Blood. Pretty much covers the range of what modern filmmaking can do - visuals, storytelling, acting. Hard to narrow it down to 3 though

The Matrix is such a perfect choice - that movie literally changed how we think about reality and tech. I'd probably swap There Will Be Blood for something like Parasite though, shows how global cinema exploded in the 2000s and the social commentary is incredible. Interstellar definitely stays, that movie makes you feel tiny and infinite at the same time

I’d go with The Matrix for its cultural impact, Spirited Away for animation and storytelling, and The Lord of the Rings Fellowship for epic filmmaking
