A Scanner Darkly
Just grabbed this cool picture from a "crew t-shirt" for sale on eBay here. I was jumping with joy when I saw it. I loved Richard Linklater's Waking Life, which used the technique of filming live action and then animating it (see my icon). I had heard that they've improved the technique and if this t-shirt design is anything to go by (it may not be, of course, it may be merely a photoshopping of a still photo that even I could do), I'm even more excited to see it! I also noticed in reading through some of the old interviews (from the early 90s), that author Philip K. Dick was mentioned more than once as being one of Keanu Reeves' favorite reads. You know they always say that sort of thing: 'I've loved this author for years yada yada yada' when an actor works on a "book" film, but in this case it seems to be true. If you were wondering, I'm not going to bid on the t-shirt. Not bidding, not bidding, not bidding...just...watching.

Oh and the book, A Scanner Darkly? I still haven't finished it...( bad Nudel, doesn't like to read depressing books)

My god does he ever look sexy in that picture. I think this is the first time I've ever wanted to have sex with a cartoon. There might have been Spiderman, but I was too young to think about sex when I was watching him. ;)

And I agree with Ni, you can't be bad for not liking depressing books. You need to be in a certain mood, I think.

By the way, if the movie looks like this, I'm buying the DVD (natch) and grabing the hell out of it. ;9

Thanks Nudel! I´m just way excited to see that movie. I think Keanu will rock as Arctor... and, I understand that you don´t like depressing books, but Scanner is way special and the end is just astonishing. I hope the movie does the book justice.

Bye
Ale
