Maybe not changed my worldview, but David Schwartz' "The Magic of Thinking Big" had a profound effect on me. It's the only self-help book I've ever read that isn't schlocky.

Re: Name one movie, book or experience that changed your world view
My world view changed when I got my first paycheck, well over 25% was taken out for taxes! The foreman then took me to the local welfare office and pointed out all the Cadillacs that the recipients were driving.

I thought I was a lib before then (I wasn't), I've never had a lib thought since.

The books of Graham Hancock changed my Life. Especially "Supernatural" which has nothing to do with the Hipster-Tv series.

Also the books of robert anton wilson.

Re: Name one movie, book or experience that changed your world view
When i read this poem written by a young girl in her death bed i shed a tear, its so beautiful.


# Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a
butterfly's erratic flight?

Or gazed at the sun into the
fading night?


You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.



Do you run through each day
On the fly?


When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores
Running through
your head?


You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.


Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?

And in your haste,
Not see hissorrow?



Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die

Cause you never had time
To call and say,'Hi'


You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.
The music won't last.


When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,

It is like an unopened gift....

Thrown away.



Life is not a race.

Do take it slower

Hear the music

Before the song is over.#


I hope this makes you think about life even for a second

Re: Name one movie, book or experience that changed your world view
I guess the romance written by Colombian Nobel Prize winner, Garcia Marquez and his book is A Hundred Years of Solitude... because in that book you could see the history of a family unravels with repetitions happening during generations and everything was somehow pre-recorded like a film and few protagonists have glimpses of that fact. The first MATRIX film stroke me like a thunderbolt not just because of the Gaeta 360 degrees bullet/slow motion time special FXs but because the concept mixing Budhism and philosophy. In that sense I also liked the dream world of a schizophrenic mind in The Cell and everything about Altered States.

Re: Name one movie, book or experience that changed your world view
I liked Sitchin's books and I have read most of them, yet I was dissapointed after receving his 3 letters and acknowledging he was not a linguist as the books claim in the covers, so there's a lot of guessing without basis.

Re: Name one movie, book or experience that changed your world view
Experiences, difficult to say, so many. I've been in the desert in Egypt, in Atacama in Chile, in Peruvian deserts... rocks or sand landscapes, being in Valley of the Moon in Bolivia, saw the snows of Canada but I guess the odd place which did something within me was sleeping at night in cold weird alien environment about 4000 meters upon sea level and literally stepping on clouds at Marcahuasi, Peruvian plateau. Not even the Amazon jungle, the waterfalls in Iguazu or Niagara Falls had that effect. Though the Canadian side lit with spotlights at night are wonderful indeed. Yet the desert has something special running inside you, you feel insignificant before nature and you see falling stars at night in Middle East. spectacular sunrises and sunsets. Watching tall skyscrapers for the first time as an adult also provides a feeling of wonder about what humans can do.

Re: Name one movie, book or experience that changed your world view
Movie: Stargate, Matrix

Books:
1. Caballo de Troya (Trojan Horse)by J.J. Benitez (Spanish) the most amazing story about Jesus of Nazareth and for me the true history of what happened back then.
2. The Earth Chronicles by Zecharia Sitchin and Lost book of Enki

Experience: Out of body astral projection I perform myself and I haven’t been able to repeat.

This might sound farfetched or BS but I listed this movies and books because believe it or not they are somehow related and hide a big secret that it’s been kept from us since He came to wake us up. Who was He? The real Bar Nassa
agent
 Quoting: EnkyTJ


Like you, I've read those in original Spanish and Sitchin I have read it in English and Portuguese, I just can't include them in the kind of books which really changed my view. Sitchin replied my letters and I even drew an image of a bacteriophague virus T4 and I said he, Daniken (or Benitez) after watching that creature they would swear to God that is a lunar lander !!!!! Whenever they saw a depiction of ancient guy with a helmet on they must believe is an ancient astronaut ignoring what ancient Mayans or Incas thought and in many cases fhey still think the depictions are. These authors carefully SELECT the humanoid gods they want to manipulate the mob and create a package of truth which is repeated forever by millions and hence the "truth" is spread in movies like Stargate. Egyptians didn' wear helmets or armor like animal shape but actually used several animals and mummified them to glorify their hybrid hum-animal shapes which is a worldwide ancient concept. I could say old movies like Jaws which terrorized everyone to the point no one wanted to swim at the beaches during the rest of their lives.... or Star Wars which was equivalent to the time parents or grandparents saw Black and white SERIALS before the coming of tv... of course, they were important but I can't say they changed my life in a profound way. Saturday Night Fever could determine fashion in men and the whole generation of disco entertainment and that indeed changes your way of life... but I guess OP meant in a deeper way and not just the superficial way of living.
