I finally, finally, finally saw this for the first time last night. Wow.

That movie made me depressed the first time I saw it. I'm not even sure why.

It really makes you think. I've watched it countless times now. The most amazing was watching it on 2gs of potent . 
(edit I was thinking of I Heart Huckabees but Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a great movie also. )

Yeah. The most mindwarping part was when they heard the tapes, and they had just met each "for the first time" or so they thought...and they listened to themselves describe each other as they saw them later...and they experienced their entire relationship's destruction all over again in one moment. I constantly felt like the movie was twisting my head around, and I liked it.

Fucking good movie
I'm glad Jim Carrey is doing serious roles, because he's an awesome actor but when he did just comedy [or mostly, I dunno what all he's made] it was kind of stupid. Well, maybe not the first couple times, but then it got old

That was an amazing movie. Watching it the second time is interesting to see how everything develops. Carrey won me over as a serious actor in this role.

Yeah, that's a great movie. All movies written by Charlie Kaufman are great... it's odd how screenwriters are so often overlooked, he seems like the first screenwriter who has really made a name for himself.
See all his movies:
Being John Malkovich Human Nature Adaptation Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind... but that wasn't quite as good as the others.
Human Nature was definitely underrated... it seems like nobody saw it either. It's a little more silly than his other movies, but it's still good.

It's a great movie. Very depressing though. I was thinking of bringing it to the gathering....but that wouldn't be a good idea.

Decent enough movie. I recently saw the Felini movie 8 1/2. That literally blew me away.

I can't speak it well enough to watch without the subtitles.
