Thoughts?

woah, look awesome

Phillip K Dick novels are usually very enjoyable

I found it distracting, either make a cartoon or live action movie is what I think. This strange mixture between the two doesn't seem sure what it wants to be, it's almost like they've stuck a cartoon skin over live action footage or something.

I suppose it's all computer animated though; just scanned in the faces of each actor.

they have stuck a cartoon skin over live action, its called rotoscoping... like they used for the video game, 13

i just picked up the book earlier, going to read it and see what the film is like in comparison

couldn't see a release date though?

[Hywel Teague]

a few chapters into the book now, its very enjoyable.

ocelot is right, dick is a great author.

[SDonovan]

is it also fair to say that when your laying in bed at night or at the beach on holiday you like to have some dick by your side?

[Hywel Teague]
