Is 'Eternal Sunshine' really that good?
Posted by lau, 12:13, 9th August 2004:
 
17. But there a quite a few in there that are on my "movies to watch" list.
Posted by su, 12:44, 9th August 2004:
 
are there any on your 'movies not to watch' list
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 12:46, 9th August 2004:
 
I have seen 26 of them. ;)
Posted by su, 12:50, 9th August 2004:
 
Someone here has to be more of a movie geek than me and seen them all
i mean these are not even obscure
Posted by Foghorn Leghorn, 12:53, 9th August 2004:
 
Perhaps not obscure but some are very fuckin boring (Pianist, The )

:)
Posted by lau, 13:34, 9th August 2004:
 
No, I don't have a "movies not to watch" list. However, there are a few movies on there that I have no particular wish to see.
Posted by Alfie, 14:23, 9th August 2004:
 
Me thinks that Eternal Sunshine is on there cos it was fresh in people's minds when they conducted the poll, or perhaps only people who really love it have ranked it on imdb
