Here is a breakdown of the media that influences my thinking and keeps me entertained.
Top Movies
Films that illustrate ambition, technology, and human nature.
The Social Network
The definitive startup movie. It captures the raw ambition, betrayal, and speed of building Facebook. Fincher's direction and Sorkin's dialogue make coding look like an action sport.
Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber
A high-octane look at the rise of Uber and Travis Kalanick. It shows the aggressive 'growth at all costs' mindset and the sheer force of will required to disrupt an industry.
Ex Machina
A chilling exploration of AI and consciousness. It's minimalist, intellectual, and deeply unsettling. As someone interested in tech and AI, this film asks the big questions.
The Wolf of Wall Street
Pure, unadulterated chaotic energy. It's a masterclass in sales, excess, and the darker side of ambition. DiCaprio's performance is electric.
Catch Me If You Can
The ultimate cat-and-mouse game. It celebrates the art of social engineering and the hustle. Spielberg captures the 60s aesthetic perfectly.
Blade Runner 2049
A visual masterpiece. Denis Villeneuve expands on the original with stunning cinematography and a deep philosophical story about what it means to be human.
BlackBerry (2023)
The rise and fall of a tech giant. It's a gritty, realistic portrayal of the smartphone wars and how quickly innovation can become obsolescence.
American Psycho
A satirical deep dive into materialism and identity. It's disturbing yet oddly funny, dissecting the emptiness of corporate culture in the 80s.

A fascinating look at the 'cult of personality' in Silicon Valley. It explores the blurred line between visionary leadership and megalomania, and how a $47 billion unicorn can vanish into thin air.
