Default Blind Buy, which is better?

I'm trying to decide on Amazon which would be the better blind buy as my 3rd movie in the B2G1. I'm deciding between Blood Diamond and The Fountain.

I've heard Fountain is one of those love em or hate em, but would it be kind of like Donnie Darko (which I loved) in that it doesn't quite resolve everything and is a kind of thought provoking movie that the American public as a whole seem to hate. I don't really have a certain taste in movies, tend more toward comedies, thought provokers, or just interesting story lines.

Blood Diamond was my favorite movie of 2006. Nice to see you liked DD! My favorite movie of all time!

Can't lose either way. Fountain does require some thinking though

The Fountain. Even if you don't like the movie, you'll enjoy the PQ.

Have not seen Blood Diamond, but The Fountain, as stated, has awesome PQ and a "What the heck just happened here?" ending.

Blood Diamond is an excellent movie. 9/10 in my book. Haven't seen The Fountain but I hear it's an instant classic for fans of director Aron Daronofsky (or however you spell it). I'd say you're better off with Blood Diamond though on a blind buy.
