Plenty of those college philosophy classes tackle that kind of topic. I consider myself a fairly straight person (never done any kind of drug ever, never even smoked a cigarette and only drank once) but I like to think I'm fairly expansive. That very issue about the physicality of reality and the nature of the possible parameters or definitions is one of the things I enjoyed most about the movie. I can't imagine alot of more straight minded people thought as deeply about it as the movie explored, but I'm sure some did.
Recently watched:
Certainly very fun, and it can't be faulted in the slightest for the straight out mindless ridiculousness that the movie is full of. A quality zombie movie that is written and catered to the comic-con/xbox generation that at least shows that the zombie genre is still capable of being interesting. So as a zombie movie, it was very fun and enjoyable, as a movie movie though while still being good, it certainly had a hollow feeling. Out of the roughly four characters that inhabit the movie, two of them (both girls) were severely one dimensional. Easily Woody Harrelson is the life of the movie. He's the only thing that makes it truly enjoyable. Fun stuff.
I don't even know what to say about this one really. I would've loved to have read some of Simon's poem to see what drove people to chaos or suicide and see why it was so equally hated and loved. Loved it when he vomited on that girls ass. Lots of weird moments, not many sweet ones. A strange exploration into what it means to be a writer and what quality actually is. Parker Posey is amazing. Fantastic movie.
