Recommendations!
smack that isaiah:
I'm wondering if anyone here can recommend a good movie for me to watch with my girlfriend. She likes these movies with altered time lines and stuff where you have to think about it after watching, like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or Donnie Darko, or to a lesser extent The Butterfly Effect.
Also, any good psychological thriller would be appreciated. Or one of those weird movies that's still good (as in, not too over the top weird) and aesthetically pleasing is often pretty pivotal (this was one of the big drawbacks I had with Leolo).
Any good movies like those you can recommend to me for this Friday's Chinese-food-and-(weird)-movie date night?

Also, while I'm here, I'm gonna recommend a few books which may or may not have been recommended earlier in this thread (I was skimming) **Edit, some of these were recommended already. I'm now reiterating these recommendations:
American Gods by Neil Gaiman (I bet most people here have read at least something by him)
Hyperion by Dan Simmons (and the rest of the books in this series)
Ilium by Dan Simmons (particularly if you ever read The Iliad and loved it (also if you ever read any Shakespeare and loved it, esp his poems))
The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks (recommended to me on a dif't forum, very good)
JD:
Maybe she would like Once? I dunno
American Psycho is the best psychological thriller though
pogonrudie:
Darren Aronofsky's Pi
Inlander:
True, you can't go wrong with a film that lists an "ant wrangler" in the end credits.

Pi looks awesome. I remember seeing it in a dvd shop (packaged in a 2-for-1 dvd with something else), but never looked into the movie. Definitely renting that one. Thanks
American Psycho looks sweet (my sister's recommended it to me before, she's in love with Christian Bale (anyone seen The Machinist?)), but I doubt my girlfriend'd be too into it (violence-wise)
Once looks more like my kind of movie, and less like something she'd be into
Anyone else have any good suggestions?
