cultural literacy

It has recently come to my attention that I wasted my childhood reading the classics and creating various entrepreneurial ventures (most notably The Do-Fun-Stuff Club and Scrambled Factory, among others) instead of doing important things like watching movies and playing command-line games.

I know who Luke’s father is, and I know what Soylent Green is, but that’s not because I’ve ever seen Star Wars or Soylent Green. I played MYST right when it came out and I “I am rubber, you are glue”-ed my way through Monkey Island but that does nothing for my geek cred.

Help me catch up: What movies must I see? What games must I play?
