Title: Waking Life
Post by: Selkie on January 15, 2008, 02:09:46 PM
I watched it today.

It had a mixed effect, but regardless, a powerful one...

First, it made me think, basically out entire thought process is simply taking different concepts that we have memorized and blending them together. Our mind can't do anything but memorize, then connect the dots. And that kinda depressed me.


Then about 2/3rds through I fell asleep, and woke up and saw the last 5 minutes. And I had basically no idea of anything. I just got up and walked around for a while, went for a run, and I felt empty, like all my previous thoughts and ideas drained from my asshole or something. It was terrible.


I am normal now though.

God I don't ever want to see that movie again  gonk;

Watched some of it, good ideas but really just a huge talk fest with the weird cartoon cellshade effect. I may watch the whole thing but I doubt it.

I love it. I've watched it at least four times.
