I know a highschooler that won't watch anything from before 2000, won't watch lotr for other reasons like broken attention span.

That's like saying "I refuse to drink wines older than 2000." Just because it's old doesn't mean it's good. But, some of the old ones are very, very good.

I watched Altered States for the first time a few years ago and that one got me more than most modern sci fi. It's a masterpiece imo.

iirc that movie is like a crazy abstract art film, it's surprising that Hollywood was willing to make it

It totally is but it's so engaging! I had trouble paying attention to things like Mad God, but Altered States drew me right in.
