Shaun of the Dead is really fun, but very slight. I doubt I would glean anything more from a second viewing Magnolia is over long, self indulgent and pretentious. It is one of 2 or 3 films that I utterly despise. Life is so sad! Now cry at the lives of these pathetic characters. The best thing about it is the Aimee Mann songs. Zodiac is the my pick for The Canon. Yes, it is the most traditionally dramatic. However it is probably Fischer's most restrained and mature work (pee Social Network). And he gets fabulous work out of Robert Downey Jr, Mark Ruffalo, and Jake Gyllenhaal
