After watching I Heart Huckabees I started going on a Nihilistic bing reading nothing but Camus and Sartre.

Well, I was already Nihilistic-bending, but I think that the movie seriously triggered in me what was already there.

Also - I was in China and in complete and utter culture shock... So being able to isolation and alienate myself to total internal contemplation... So easy it was depressing.

Yeah, that happens when your not around people who speak a language that you do. I did alot of thinking while I was working on the racetrack with the mexicans, because most don't know a lick of english, so instead of them learning the language of the country, which I think should be a must if your going to work in that country(just my opinion), I had to learn spanish so that I could communicate with them. and then that led to drinking with them after work which made it so that i wasn't really thinking much... because I'm just dumb when I drink taquila. But now I'm rambling......

Now actually getting on the subject.... yeah I don't have that problem, I normally just think about the movies after, and there aren't really many that bother me. Two that did would were Audition( A Japanese flick), and Pet Cemetary. Mostly because I have a thing about ankles.... Though Saw1+3 didn't bother me much.

Oh... and Yeah Donny Darko made me think a whole shit load after watching it, it really stuck with me, and everytime I watch that movie theres always something I didn't notice that makes me think.

God I don't know if I helped, or if I made any sense just now.... so I'll stop typing.
