Posted: 9/19/06 at 12:08amAm I the only one who is going to love this movie? It seems as if everybody I know is calling it 'A bad version of Garden State'.

It's going to be awesome.
And Garden State was the bad version of Garden State.

Posted: 9/19/06 at 7:10amI'm really looking forward to it. There was a really great, long feature about Gondry in the Times that I read online yesterday. At this hour, I can't recall where it was exactly, but there's a gallery in Soho featuring some of his art, that sounds like an interesting accompaniment to the film.
But when did New Hampshire become--Such a backward wasteland of seatbelt hating crazies?...I mean, only 40 people actually live there. The others are just visitors who come for the tax-free liquor and three inches of novelty coastline. John Hodgeman on The Daily Show (1-30-07)

I can't wait to see this - I am obsessed with Gael Garcia Bernal

Posted: 9/19/06 at 3:42pmWhy Garden State? The comparison I've been hearing is much more obvious- Gondry's previous romantic head trip, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. (Though that movie had the benefit of a Charlie Kaufman screenplay.) This movie looks wonderful in theory, but I've heard the ending is horrid. We'll see.

And how is GARDEN STATE bad? It's a cute little movie - it didn't try to be anything else.
THE LIBERTINE is brilliant, yet GARDEN STATE is bad? Kay.

Who the heck said The Libertine is brilliant?
Anyway, back to Gondry.

*shrug* This thread isn't about Garden State, though. So you think he has bad taste in movies. Take it up in PMs.
Though I guess since no one's seen this movie yet there isn't going to be much talk about it...

Posted: 9/19/06 at 3:56pmI thought The Libertine was horrendous! Garden State was very good. I can watch Peter Sarsgaard in anything. I think Natalie Portman was a lot better in GS than she was in Closer.
