I saw Donnie Darko not too long ago. One of my new favorite movies for sure. It's the first movie I've seen like it, where it makes you think but not quite so much where you have to watch it again.

Just rented Elephant today as well. That was amazing. I didn't find it quite as slow as everyone made it out to be, though the walking scenes wore on my nerves quite a bit. Didn't understand the use of the Benny character either, that scene might've been more effective if they used John or Elias or even Acadia.

im a huge donnie darko fan
garden state is also a really great movie

You have excelent movie taste. Those are pretty much my two favorite movies. And Rain Man, that one is amazing. American History X was pretty good too.

I forgot the Harry Potter movies. They aren't really brilliant, but I like them just the same.

donnie darko is probably my favorite movie. ever.

i second garden state. i also like eternal sunshine of the spotless mind if you haven't seen that.

rain man is a good movie, but not AMAZING in my opinion.

i've never heard of elephant... maybe i should rent it.

and i am obssessed with harry potter, books and movies. huge harry potter fan right here

I loved Eternal Sunshine. Was great to see Jim Carrey do drama, I really doubted he could do it, but he was amazing.

I didn't hear about Donnie Darko until long after it was out of theaters. But I plan on getting the directors cut as soon as possible.

How about Fight Club? I'm a little biased, being a Palahniuk fan, but I thought it was amazing from start to finish.

YESSSSS. Some nights I stay up late looking at fan sites.

Westworld is pretty good. I'm a HUGE Michael Crichton fan. Read all his books currently in print. "Travels" is my personal bible. I'm serious.

Ah, thanks for the compliment LikeItNeverWas! Didn't see that. I just pretty randomly rented these after getting free coupons. Was curious, but never went for it. They're some of my favorites now.

'american history X' is amazing. i also loved 'the motorcyle diaries'.

'garden state' was just...ok. i think this is because everyone at school said so many great things about it, i raised my expectations. i did fall asleep while watching it.

i thought garden state was a great movie. it does seem overrated, i can totally agree with that. "omg you have to see garden state!"

its totally fucking cliche, but you gotta ignore that.

Wow...there is some great taste in movies here...I saw Elephant when it first came out and thought that it was amazing....Garden State was good, too....and i really like the Harry Potter's but think that they should have kept them more consistant because the new director changed everything. American History X is one of my all time favorites...Oh and I love The Nightmare Before Christmas...Tim Burton is a Genius and I can't wait for Corpse Bride.

Last movie I saw was Wedding Crashers, and it was a lot of fun.

Agreed...except for the fact that my friends think that the creepy art dude reminds them of Conor Oberst...that makes me sad...but all in all a very funny movie (I like the funeral crashing part) LOL
