    Woah. Just read through this f***ing long list of movies and all. Anyhow, here's my contribution. I don't know if many of you have seen them - or liked them in this case - because I haven't seen them around this thread.

    The good:

    Pretty Persuasion - an angel-faced, nasty and manipulative girl tries to see how far she can con her friends, her school and the media on a sexual assault case. It's a comedy but the several layers of motives/intentions that hide the real motives behind all her actions is what makes this one of my fave movies. Also attacks racists. Many racist slurs actually. ex: "I'm very glad that I was born white."

    Closer - just because Natalie Portman is awesome and Jude Law portrays, as usual, an anal retentive player.

    Donnie Darko - The whole atmosphere of the movie was right. The music enhanced the experience. And the time-travel theories drive you crazy , even it it somewhat makes sense at the end. I'd love to discuss this with someone one day. I think this was on a couple of ppl's fave list.

    Heathers - Winona Ryder and Christian Slater when they were young, nimble and violent. Lots of different methods to kill people and each other.

    I just realized that 3/4 of these movies are semi-teen flicks with violent tendencies and promiscuous girls. Do you see a pattern? My brain and tastes are regressing...

    Blood the vampire - the 45 minutes version. The plot kind of sucked because it was too short and badly developped, but it's worth watching just for the graphics. The first scene in which she kills a demon/werewolf in the subway is unforgettable.

    Leon the Professional - Kite (the anime) is awfully similar to it. The gun in the lunchbox, the bathroom scene and the child assassin. What's different: girl gets raped by 'Leon' and the gore is so overdone that it becomes comedic. And 'Leon' gets shot several times in his southern regions...Still, the timing in Kite keeps you on the edge throughout the whole anime. Leon the Professional still remains the best.

    Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - I was never more confused then the first time I watched this movie. And then I felt illuminated the second time around. And by the third, I was simply happy.

    The bad:

    Most of the movies I disliked/hated have already been listed so I won't repeat them.
