Movies I hope will make it to Singapore:
The Aristocrats - Comedy veterans Penn Jillette and Paul Provenza capitalize on their insider status and invite over 100 of their closest friends (who just happen to be some of the biggest names in entertainment, including Jon Stewart, George Carlin, Drew Carey, Steven Wright, Bill Maher, Eddie Izzard, Harry Shearer, Martin Mull, Hank Azaria, Paul Reiser, and Sarah Silverman) to reminisce, analyze, deconstruct and deliver their own versions of the world's dirtiest joke, an old burlesque routine, too extreme to be performed in public, called "The Aristocrats".
Thumbsucker - A high-school loser finds that fate (and modern medicine) plays some interesting tricks with his personality in this dark comedy.
Movies I thought would make it here but never did:
I heart Huckabees - A husband-and-wife team play detective, but not in the traditional sense. Instead, the happy duo helps others solve their existential issues, the kind that keep you up at night, wondering what it all means.
Garden State - When Andrew Largeman (Zach Braff) returns to his hometown for his mother’s funeral, he reconnects with old friends and - since he’s gone off his depression medication - himself. A chance meeting with Sam (Natalie Portman), who also suffering from various maladies, opens his world to the possibility of rekindling emotional attachments, confronting his psychologist father, and perhaps beginning a new life.

I saw Garden State... So good. Been listening to Frou Frou ever since the movie. Good plot, great sound track.
The boyfriend likes it a lot and has loaned me the DVD. To say I haven't had time to watch it would be an understatement. I haven't even had the time to hook my DVD player up!
