8.7/10 out of 7,050 votes or some-such, placing #49 on IMDb's top 250 list. Wowsers.

So basically, Internet geeks still love it.  I'm surprised Lost in Translation hasn't taken a dip yet, which shows it's a rather universal film.  (Though you wouldn't believe the girls in my screenwriting who hated it because, well, for one reason, "nothing happened.")  Oddly enough, all the guys loved it.  I digress, though.  Point being, there was a time when even Punch-Drunk Love was in the Top 250.  Miss those days.  But once the mainstream got wind of it and heard Sandler was in it, once it was released on DVD, down it dropped.

Adaptation., though, interestingly enough, always hovered at the bottom of the Top 250 when it first came out.  Signs that most of the people saw it, appreciated it, but realized it was somewhat broken.  Odd thing is, with this Kaufman, once more mainstream viewers heard about it, its popularity soared, hence its high rating now.  Ditto with Malkovich.  It'll be interesting to see how the public really reacts to this Kaufman, come DVD release and Oscar season.

funnier than i was told.
cleverer than i imagined.
perfect as i hoped.

ps. can sumone tell me which pages of this thread i should read that hav relevant content discussing the movie?

[ono]

Page 12 has an interview you said you didn't want to read until you saw the movie because it's full of spoilers.  Godardian commented on page 12, as did neon and modage.  Walrus and Cinebunny on 13.  And I'm just mentioning people who actually wrote more than (WOW, OMG BEST MOVIE EVER!!!).  picolas and ebes on page 14.  Gloria on page 15.  I commented on page 16 and 17.  samsong on 17.  Mac on page 18.  Weirdo1769 and pete on page 20.  SHAFTR on page 21.  And last but not least, GT rips it a new asshole on page 21.  There's some more back and forth on 24 and 25, re: dropped subplots and the finer points of the film.  GT posted a Kaufman review on page 26.  RegularKarate on page 26.  ©brad freaks out like ebeaman on page 27.  Sorry for anyone I missed.  Sometimes posts that are longer than one sentence actually don't suck, y'know?  And yes, I'm bored.  Garfield was right.  Mondays suck.

holy crap, thanks for that summary Paella. i read it all now and u forgot the great interview on p27!

it seems those who didn't like it are bitter/stupid. GT, i'm afraid that movies are seriously not what u think they are.. it's almost as if ur stuck, or ageing rapidly.

-thank you to everyone for spoiling every image in the movie though their avatars.. much appreciated.
