Hehe yeah - it's Blue Lagoon II that scares the caca outta me.

I just saw an awesome movie today, although I'll have to give it some time before I permenately place it in my favorite movies category. It's called Garden State. It's starring and written and directed by Zach Braff (from Scrubs) and with Natalie Portman. It's only in NY and LA right now, but it will be opening in more theatres starting Aug. 6, and more theatres as the weeks go on. I would reccomend it if its showing in a theatre in your area, great movie.
