Indeed. I got about halfway through the book and had to put it down.

However, I'm really excited about seeing the movie.

It should be pretty interesting. Directed by Richard Linklater, they shot the film and then animated over every frame, so it's a live-action animated film. :)

looks cool...

Ever get that odd feeling??:|

I did last night..

I watched this trailer on Friday night, noticed this...

waking life was done the same way right?
i remember watching that movie while doped up on codeine cough syrup. good times.

waking life was done the same way right?

Duh! Some insurance company has been using that form of animation for their commericals too.

I look forward to it. Not necessarily because of Waking Life which I didn't mind as much as I thought because Linklater explicitly made it known he was aiming for nothing but the height of pretentiousness, but yea.

waking life was done the same way right?
Yes. As battletoad implied, same director.

yea thanks.
like i said, i was pretty sedated when i watched that one, i was so sick.
i thought i was making shit up in my head when i first saw it.

Don't feel too bad. You were part of the intended audience...
From the notes of one critic:
When he introduced the film at its Sundance 2001 premiere, Linklater posed one question to the audience, and it goes a long way towards setting the stage for Waking Life. "How many of you out there are on drugs?" he asked. When a number of hands went up, he added, "Good. This is for you. The rest of you, just bear with me."

I still think "Tape" has been Linklater's best work thus far.

So has anyone seen this yet?

Still trying to find somebody who wants to go with me.

yeah, i definitely want to read the book prior to seeing the film. but anything with Robert downey Jr i definitely look forward to seeing.

I forgot all about this thread . Anyone know when movie is coming out ?

It's out.

I dont know why but I keep thinking of the movie Scanners when see this title

It's out.


Thanks ,that was fast . I need to check papers . Much more imput though and I might blow a head gasket . So many conspiricies, so little time .

I don't think I saw that one . I saw Minority Report or something like that ?.

Scannersi is a old film 1981 David Cronenberg film. About people who posses ESP ability due to some side effect from a drug given in the 40's to help for pain in pregnant women.They can make your head explode with their own thoughts. It a pretty interesting sci fi film.

I saw that ,I just forgot .

Well I saw it the other day, it was really good. I keep thinking about it. It's a bit depressing, but it was very well done I thought.

The technique is called rotoscoping, it was developed at MIT and is used in a bunch of stuff. They've really refined the technique compared to how it was when he made Waking Life.

I thought the movie was pretty solid. mostly true to the book, whiich I enjoyed compared to most of the adaptations of Philip K. Dick's works. linklatter is a big Dick fan, so it makes sense and he did the screen play.

The movie was good, a bit less philosophical than the book, a bit dumbed down, especially the closing of the movie, not left quite as open as Dick did, but work seeing.

*Insert stupid, juvenile joke here*

The movie was good, but there were moments when the visuals became the only thing maintaining my attention. My advice: go watch Tape to see what this guy is really capable of.

i tried to see this at my local theater... and there were no showings... do i need to find an art house near me?

I just saw it. I really wouldn't all it wierd perse, because it's wierdness makes a lot of sense in the end. Messed up ending, but not entirely. At the same time you want to say, "well that was clever". I wonder what happens after. It clues you in, but you really want to see it for yourself.

Are we still talking about ,' A Scanner Darkly '? And where did you see it ?

I was able to get one of those free copies :|

So I guess Keanu is in movies that question reality.
The novels about an addictive drug taking over the world and a burnt out undercover detective?..its got my interest. Rotoscoping as in Sin City style or animation over live..that could get a bit hard to focus on though.
