independence day (1996)

still a classic, still slaps, but it is a little jarring, coming from modern digital funhouses like the mcu and whatnot, to see these laughably bad 90s computer graphics being given such a prime spot on screen.

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
