Yeah I have been told it's an awesome flick.

I never saw Patch Adams. I might have to rectify that soon.

I had forgotten I'd seen it. Honestly can't remember much about it. The clips from it trigger a memory that I seem to think I liked it. Who knows? Guess I'll have to see it again to remember.

I've never understood the hate Patch Adams apparently gets.  Not that it was this great film or anything, but I liked it well enough.  Williams plays such a positive and gentle soul, that his character is almost impossible not to like (I very much hope the real Patch Adams is similar in personality).

Bicentennial Man.  Awesome.  And made me cry like a baby.  And What Dreams May Come.  Said movie brings up a lot of questions I hope Mr. Williams was comfortable with the answers.

The movie is actually very different from the reality. Apparently, they filmed it with very little input from the actual "Patch" and this pissed him off pretty badly. I don't think he got any money from the movie either.
