I agree that dystopia is a genre of sci-fi (and my personal favorite). But I think what sets Eternal Sunshine apart is that it is so fantastical, it is not really sci fi, it is fantasy. It’s not really supposed to be grounded in reality at all, its just a way to explore the subconscious. It’s closer to Being John Malkovich or Synecdoche, NY than science fiction (yes, I know those are both Kaufman films as well).

So Star Wars is Sci Fi now?!?!

Although we will not put limits on what is or isn't a genre fulfilling film (Star Wars isn't a science fiction film), give it some thought at least. Comedies are easy, science fiction is a tough genre though.
You may have misinterpreted. I will edit out the confusion. Sorry, that was meant as an aside, not as a rule.
FWIW, no problem just edit your original post. I hanve't tallied anything yet.
