Heh, I remember when that movie came out. Another one I never got around to seeing. I always wanted to though, more than I ever wanted to see the other Crash.

I've seen that Crash by accident. I was hoping it was the other one and I popped that one in going wtf the whole time.

I'm not even trying to compare it to Brokeback Mountain. I just don't see how that film did anything different. It was cookie cutter "RACISM IS BAD" in every scene. The acting was great in moments, especially from Dillon and Pena, but my god the actual structure of the film was like the most forced shove it down your throat theme I've ever seen.
Out of all the films that year it actually evoked strong feelings from me after watching it. I'm sure it did the same thing for the members that voted for it. It might have seemed like Racism by numbers to you but I fucking loved it. I loved it so much that I thought the tv series could capture the same magic in the bottle that the movie did and boy was I wrong.

I still watched the tv series until it was cancelled but by no stretch of the imagination was it even comparable to the movie. Dennis Hopper couldn't even save it and he gave some great performances throughout the seasons.

wtf is this Cache movie that you guys keep mentioning? Never heard of it. Does it have a Best Picture award? I think NOT.

No but seriously what it is?

I've never seen it but I know it's a Michael Haneke film about a family that keeps getting blackmail video tapes mailed to them or something like that.

Brick was the best film of 2005.

Incest>murder bro. Brick is phenomenal though.


Coherence

Well wasn't that just the most mind bending experience I've had since Primer. Great understated and dialogue driven film that I'll be watching a few more times.

If you haven't seen Cache, watch it immediately. Twice though, because it doesn't really set in the first time. Then come back to us and tell us how you agree that Crash sucks.

I like Brick but I'd pick Broken Flowers over all the 2005 movies mentioned so far.
