Oooh! I think that's my favourite so far. It would introduce several eras including the ones we only envision in our future, and would introduce a number of concepts about myths, stories and social structures.

Nobody has mentioned porn. We try and say things in our great works of art but maybe they'd learn more from what we make when we're trying to say nothing at all.

Fellowship, two towers, return of the king. Tell them it's one movie showing how the littlest person can make the biggest difference.

An interesting choice, but they'd be pretty mislead about how our economy works 90 years on.

L'Arroseur ArrosΓ©. That will show them not to block the sunlight with their ship.

(It would also show them our love for beauty, aour dependency on water, sense of humour and sense for justice.)

Teaching them our sense for justice worries me. Either they understand we can police ourselves or they start holding us accountable for wrongdoings under their legal system with no warning, assuming we'll understand.

Nothing summarizes the dream of freedom and creativity of the human species in the face of incompetency like β€œAmerican Movie”

A documentary about a couple of regular dudes trying to make a horror movie
