I didn't really like Adaptation, but I really enjoyed Eternal Sunshine. It was an interesting premise, and beautifully done. It made it into the IMDB top 250 within a few days of its release, and it's at #93 right now. That'll probably go down when stupid people start seeing it.

If you arent a Kaufman fan then this isnt going to be for you. I liked Adaptation and Malkovich so I feel I will like this one. My wife on the other hand isnt a fan so im stuck.

Probably going to see Lady Killers tonight. Hanks looks good in this one.

this move is one that I'll never tire of watching really. I've seen it twice already and am still not sick of it. There is only one other movie that I can actually stand watching millions of times, and oddly enough it's Ocean's Eleven (the new one with Brad Pitt and George C.).

Come on, how can you rip on adaptation?

"But why would he have a picture of her on his porno site?"

I'm getting my fourth viewing tonight, and I doubt I'll stop. This film is like a drug. There's still no release date for the DVD, rumor has it that they will release close to when Academy will have a chance to revisit this film to refresh their memories before voting begins. Personally I think this strategy is pointless and selfishly, I'd rather have the DVD in my hands as soon as possible. The academy does not give awards based on merit, they have to find a film that will suit their current political motivations - and one will likely not be one to win many Academy awards.

Hmmm... I'm not sure if I'd believe that rumor. I'm pretty sure the academy members get advance copies of the movies in the categories they vote for, and for some categories they can only vote if they've gone to special screenings. I'd expect it to come out sometime this summer.

You're right come to think about it. I can't wait until I can my hands on it. Paying $6-10 each time is getting expensive.

This is a fantastic movie. It'll probably be the best movie of 2004.

I loved Adaptation, but Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was even better!
