Ever wonder what it would be like to be able to grab the cereal from the top shelf? Wonder no more. For the low price of 100K you too can be slightly taller ...

    “Jerome never questioned my commitment again. I took my mind off the pain by reminding myself that when I’d eventually did stand up, Id’be exactly two inches closer to the stars.”

    Gattaca is a great film where he does exactly this.

      It’s one of my favorite movies of all time and has so many great quotes.

      “I never saved anything for the swim back.”

      “I was never more certain of how far away I was from my goal than when I was standing right beside it.”

      The style of the movie feels timeless as well. I like how they didn’t try to go crazy with fancy gadgets.

      Also, it has a soft spot because I was a younger brother that always felt like he was the lesser and never belonged.

      The only criticism I have is the romance piece, but the rest is just flawless to me.

        I haven’t watched that movie in such a long time, but i still remember so much from it. Eo many good lines.

        Gerome, gerome the metronome.
        Was my favourite “quote” when i was little. I always thought: one day i can use that. Obviously i never did and never will

          “For what it’s worth. Left handed men don’t hold it with their right. Just one of them things…
          You’re gonna miss your flight Vincent”.

          I love that all the way though the movie the doctor is dropping hints he knows he isn’t who he says he is.
