Really? I absolutely hated that movie.

BTW, I'm not a big movie crier either. Real life things make me cry more.

Is that with Jim Carrey? I had to turn it off after about 20 min. Had no idea what was going on.

I'm just shaking my head.



ESOTSM is one of my top ten movies of all time. It's my wife's second favorite movie...possibly her favorite.

That movie is amazing...turning it off because you don't get it just makes me scratch my head. I can understand turning off White Chicks or Fat Albert or something like that because they are crap, but Sunshine is a fantastic movie. Kaufman's best ever, just ahead of Adaptation.

I liked ESOTSM....good flick. Got a lil' choked up. If I watched it tonight I'd cry like a 17 year old girl.

I watched the whole thing. I just didn't enjoy it -- at all. Thought I would, but didn't.

During Rocky, when he gets knocked down and Mick tells him to "Stay down, stay down," and he gets up anyways. I like that part.

I don't "cry" in movies, but I do get emotional and choke up in scenes of intense love...especially for the character's children. I get tears in my eyes watching scenes from Father of the Bride.

I like Titanic...there are a couple of scenes where I smile with a lump in my throat. It is a beautiful film...maybe not the best written, but one of the best shot films out there.

tennyson's ideas on love and loss are beautifully and relevantly summed up in this movie. i can't imagine anyone who couldn't relate to the emotion in this movie in some way, not to mention the brilliant way it is scripted.

I freaking LOVE Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

I absolutely ADORE it.

I could watch it over and over and over. And then over again.

D-Dogg's rec in his movie-a-day really set the wheels going for me to rent it - and I ended up loving it.

LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe that movie

Very much agree with the Green Mile.

The biggest one for me was John Q. When he is in the hospital, getting ready to give his heart to his son, so that he could live, gets me everytime.

I know I would do the same thing with my son or daughter.
