Eternal Sunshine is ace, but god, A Scanner Darkly just sent me to sleep. The book's way, way better.

Also, are you actually coming to Latitude?

i liked it! stylistically gorgeous rather than storyline, i suppose.

and yes, allegedly. if i don't have tickets in my hand tomorrow i get to create a fuss!

Mmmm yeah, it looks good, but Keanu Reeves can't even act when someone else is animating him!

Fussbot! Do it!
