Attention hollywood wieners

George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, etc; this means YOU.

I just saw what i think is the best science fiction film i've seen in years. And it required virtually *no* special effects at all. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Learn from this, people. Please.

have you seen "primer"?

Unsurprisingly, I was going to say the same thing. :)

Primer required neither special effects nor, apparently, budget! It was made on $7000 or some such. Totally worth seeing.

Havent had the chance yet. It's in the "netflix" queue, though.

I own it...

And I've been vaguely intending to get some people together to watch it again. Think you'd be interested?

quite likely. As you now know, we've got this nice spiffy LCD projector in our house...

i think you'll like it. i've got a copy and i've been meaning to have a daam for it.

It's true...

It certainly is SF. I mostly found myself thinking that it's one of very few films I've seen where I found the primary romance compelling. Definitely on my short list of favorite films.
