I download a lot of movies and in my opinion ESOTSMind disappointed big time. To each their own an all that. I DO like Jim Carrey (excellent in the new Lemony Snicket film). Suprised that anyone could call it one of the movies of the year though.

If I may recommend a good movie then please check out 'The House Of Flying Daggers' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385004/?fr ... ;fc=1;ft=1 .

In the vein of 'Hidden Tiger Crouching Dragon' and starring the beautiful Ziyi Zhang http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0955471/ . I watched it with the good woman and we both agree that this is a great piece of art.

I quote "Stunning! Beautiful! Opulent! Visually breathtaking! Aesthetic perfection! All these words and phrases could be used to describe Zhang Yimou's latest action/love-story blockbuster, House of Flying Daggers, which I had the pleasure of (and believe me, pleasure is the exact word) seeing last night at the cinema..."
The soundtrack album is as beautiful as the film.

Truth is Eternal Sunshine was a big surprise for me as I can't stand Jim Carrey. I don't think I'd be much for the Flying Daggers as I'm not into Martial Arts stuff (I found Crouching Tiger a bit dull to be honest).

I liked Eternal Sunshine because, at times, it was very Philip K Dick in tone - more so than any of the films that have been made of his books - and uit had a good supporting cast.

I hated Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Which is funny, 'cuz I love the Matrix, The One, and all the old-fashioned Kung-Fu movies (Bruce Lee owns). but Crouching Tiger stank like no other.

My wife trains in various styles of martial arts (over twenty years now) and I have seen too many movies of that genre for comfort but HTCDragon was one that we both enjoyed. HOFDaggers is far superior.

Hey SnowDog, you better hope my good woman doesnt see this post, she'll kick your butt mate! .

I fence... bwa...?

er...

Anywho, just sayin' what I think.

Lol, no problems with one's opinion. You may have noticed the smiley which is indicative of humerous undertones, yes? .

and perhaps you noted the 'bwa...?' meant to signify my understanding of said humorous undertone.

that being said

HAVE AT THEE!
