+1, love the sigur ros song and the skyscraper scene to death

seen the original, thought it was OK. +1 on falling in love with Penelope Cruz's character. Same for Natalie Portman in Garden State!

Even though I like the remake "Vanilla Sky", I definitely believe the original Spanish film "Abre los ojos" is a lot better. Maybe it's because I saw it first before the remake came out.

Anyway, both movies are great because Penelope Cruz stars in both versions. How cool to play the character of Sofia twice once in Spanish and the other in Spanglish. Just kidding I love her foreign accent! LOL

Penelope Cruz was 10X hotter, sexier and more beautiful in the original. Simply because she was younger in the first film. Nothing can take away the innocent beauty of youth. As people have already stated her character Sofia was the 'perfect girlfriend'. Sofia would be my type of ideal girl, but not necessarily the actress Penelope Cruz. If you know what I mean...;)

Just watched it again to get in the mood for the Sigur Ros gig I'm attending tonight. Definitely one of my favourite films and criminally underrated. The ending gives me 15 minutes of goosbeumps each time. Soundtrack is outstanding if perhaps too packed. And while I usually dont like Penelope Cruz too much, I can't help but falling in love with her every time I see that movie.
Seriously its getting better as it ages!


Only seen it once but seem to remember it being not too bad.


oh and I discovered Sigur Ros on the weekend, can't believe its taken me this long to find them, absolutely in love with their stuff.

What does Vanilla Sky have to do with Stanley Kubrick?

He probably mistook it for Eyes Wide Shut.

Hehe... I was at the concert too. :)
In my opinion Cameron Crows remake tops the original which is mainly because of the Soundtrack ( which is awesome in every of his movies ).
Normally I am a remake hater and since Crowe did an 1:1 remake I should hate it. But in this case I cannot.

How did you like the concert?

Saw them twice within 4 days, magic!!! Couldn't believe this kind of music could be enjoyed live, but how wrong I was!

Twice? How did you manage that?
It was an overkill of feelings to me. I had goosebumps for the first 30 mins without a break and couldn't push that any further. And after them playing Gooblegidook and then Untitled#8 as encore I diiiiiiiiiiiiiied like some people do to Tiesto. :p
It was and will be the best concert/party this year for me.
