NZ accent is so hot! [url=This is how I react when I hear it][/url], well... almost... just melting. :#haha#: And since we're talking about pronunciation of certain words, I love how Jemaine says "

Hmm, I can't think where I've heard him say that... In the film or commentary, or the TV series? But yeah, the accent is preeeetty nice. :;
): I also like the 'yes/yis' thing, but I think everyone does.

I really like this film, my favourite bit is the foolish sucka bit, always makes me laugh. I really felt sorry for Jarrod he's obviously sensitive and he's had a lot to get through in his life. I got the feeling he was pushing Lily away to protect himself.
I can't believe that I didn't realize there's commentary on the DVD, will have to listen to that tomorrow!
and off topic - I love that video with Eddie Izzard!

Oh, that's an interesting reflection. I like it!
This is my favourite film ever. I always discover something new in it, especially when talking with someone else about it.

Which version have you got: the US or UK one?
I found the UK commentary more interesting, but I haven't listen to either of them for ages. Might have gone back to it and compare again.

Yeah, I definitely agree with you about Jarrod.
- Spoiler:
I felt really bad for him because he's obviously emotionally struggling, it's like, he's been bullied, he's got a dad who seems uninterested in his existence, a sibling that is horrible to him, and another sibling that he seems to idolise, but who isn't there anymore. Then he finally manages to find someone who actually cares about him, but he just really needs his dad, who only appears to care about his brother, to actually give a crap about him, so he pushes her away because he thinks that's what it's gonna take to make his dad care.
I think Jarrod also tries to make himself seem like he's uncaring, either because that's how he's used to everyone treating him, or (most likely, I'd have thought), as a way of protecting himself from getting hurt anymore. He obviously does really care about Lily though, and is protective of her, because why would he stay up all night waiting for her to come back, or take his sleeping bag thing over to where she is, so she won't be on her own?
If anything, I think that Jarrod is probably the most vulnerable character in the film, and it's probably more Lily helping/saving him, because even though her life isn't great either, she actually has someone, a brother who obviously really cares about her, and until Jarrod met her, he basically had no one.
Well, that's how I saw the film at least, no idea if any of that's actually right (probably not ).
I have no idea if any of what I just said contains spoilers at all, or if it even matters considering the film was made in like 2007, but I did the spoiler thing just to be on the safe side, and because I haven't had chance to use it yet )
