    Figure 8 is probably the most accessible

    Ah now there's a question. I probably have to go with Can't Make A Sound, it's simple, like a hammer to the face.
    I could have gone with Angeles, Waltz#2, Everything Means Nothing To Me, Between The Bars or Needle In The Hay.

    What if it's only the hardware that's a simulation and the software (or consciousness) is a virus that's evolving?
    Humans are, by and large, equipped with the same biological hardware but the variation comes with experience. The synths in the show seem to have evolved and developed differing personalities in the same

    It's emotional lockdown as a coping strategy and part admiration. Sophie see's the synths as perfect creatures. They don't get upset, tired, angry, feel pain. Someone who feels all those things would see that something they'd like to copy.

    Do you remember all the optimism for Wrestlemania 4 months ago? Feels like a long time ago. This Wrestlemania is looking like it could be worse than last year.

    I'd settle for them taking his Verification Tick and watching him lose his mind.

    Well as I was talking about this very scene on here last week I can hardly avoid this.

    "(no one in the WWE would dare steal The Undertaker’s tombstone piledriver)"

    I would absolutely agree with you if that was reality and everyone was just weird, stupid etc. That is the other reality though, the one where everyone is being manipulated by some unknown force.
    I kinda wish Richard Kelly had cleared up whether Swayze's character is actually a real paedophile or it's just in the Other

    The latter then. To me "Death fantasy" suggests the whole thing is just the delusions of a suicidal kid, which is patently not true.

    That's… not what it's about

    Not a death fantasy. Everything in the time bubble is manipulated and designed to trap this kid into killing himself and ending the bubble.

    It's a waste of time. A Tales From The Crypt episode stretched to cinema length, and not even a good story.

    Seth Rogen was in Donnie Darko?! I'm gonna have to watch it again, although not in the cinema, because I'm in the bloody UK.
    Also, why is this happening? It's a Halloween film, the anniversary was last year. This seems random.

    He didn't buy her.

    Add Revolutionary Road and Mystic River to that list.

    I'm talking about something larger that affects everyone and is a scar on the country. Historically it takes a war or a dictator for a country to grow up, look to Germany/Japan/Spain/Italy etc for examples. You can't learn from your mistakes until you fully suffer the consequences of them.

    They'll only learn by suffering the consequences of their stupidity. This is something I think every country has to go through before they grow up, and now it's time for the US to have that "Never again" moment.

    I just don't get Bon Iver in general. Fantastic songwriter but the voice just leaves me cold, it's Neil Young all over again.

    Joni Mitchell has done it to me twice. It's been a long time since I listened to Court and Spark but I remember feeling confused and bored by it, even moreso by The Hissing of Summer Lawns. Then she grabbed me back in by Hejira, which I love and immediately lost me again with Don Juan.
