I dont watch a lot of TV/movies anymore, though I enjoy trying to draw the message from them when I do.
I watched 'The Matrix' the night before one of my early teen birthdays, and I remember thinking it over, perhaps this 'reality' isnt what it seems. I actually watched it again last night, and was quite surprised at how much I was thinking about LOO throughout it. Instead of seeing Neo realise he is The One, he is realising he IS One. I guess the film was quite the catalyst for me.
"The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth." - sound like the veil anyone?
"Neo, sooner or later you're going to realize just as I did that there's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path." - this one really speaks to me as I have read the Ra material but I need to be living it!
