Nothing even remotely close like the 500 days relationship has happened to me but it still resonated with me. It was definitely my type of movie.

I can understand someone not liking SLP, but I don't see how anyone can dislike 500 DoS. I think just about everyone has been in one of those characters situations.
I think Zooey diminishes the movie for me. I know this puts me in the minority, but I can't stand her or her shtick.

Happened to me once in college and the movie portrayed it perfectly.

You participated in a flash mob after sex bro?
Haven't seem SLP yet but I own both [500] and Garden State. I like both, guess I need to see if SLP is just as good

I'm one of the few, but I agree, Garden State was not a good movie. It felt like it was made just so Braff could show how cool he was with indie music. The other two are much better.

1. that was the gayest thing I've ever seen
2. I hit one of my crushes in HS and....basically just stopped having a crush on her. I had a crush on the idea of hitting it.
3. I am glad I haven't ever seen that faggy movie after seeing that.

Zach Braff and Zooey Deschannel annoy the shite out of me.
That scene for 500 days of Summer looked fricking awful.
I am starting to think most of you guys are huge queers and like awful shite.

I enjoyed the scene, especially since it came out of left field. The rest of the movie isn't like that. JGL spends a decent portion of the movie in bitter as frick mode.

What is it about those three movies that connects them for comparison? Beyond offbeat stories about young adults, not much, huh?

Just watched 500 Days of Summer today for the first time. I feel like Silver Linings Playbook is so much better.

SLP is Oscar worthy. The other 2, though good movies are not.

If I won a billion dollar lottery, first thing I'd do would be to have sex with Zooey Deschanel and hire a flash mob to reenact that scene with me.

I really don't like Garden State, so don't take their word for it in at least that regard.

500 DOS is the only one I've seen and I absolutely loved it.
I've never even heard of SLP but the way it's getting talked about in this thread I guess I need to watch it. What's a general synopsis of it? If it's really that much better than 500DOS I'm in for a treat.
