That's really cool looking

I'm a huge Philip D1ck fan, can't wait to see this movie.

**Imran Siddiqui** · May 5, 2006, 10:45

I believe 'Dick' has become uncensored.

I hate gimmick movies.

ACK!

**Lorizael** · May 5, 2006, 11:20

I saw a trailer for this in theaters. I'm not sure I could sit through a full two hours of that animation.

Actually, it's not all that new. Waking Life used similar tactics, though their technology at the time was a bit more primitive.

What would be more interesting, in my opinion, is if they filmed a movie in HDR.

Welcome to the flickr HDR Group! The intent of this group is to feature pictures and discussion about HDR technology & technique. : : What is HDR? : : HDR on Wikipedia : : TIPS : : Shoot RAW, the more exposure data per image, the higher the dynamic range. Raw has much more luminosity data than Jpeg. Shoot as many exposures as you think might be required to capture the brightest highlight and darkest shadow in your scene : : TOOLS : : start here, ask around, or create your own post : : FAQ : : : : Where can I learn more about HDR? Please see the topic "What is HDR" for more detailed information on HDR specific technology. : : I'm using Photomatix or hacking photoshop (exif data) so I can create multiple exposures from 1 RAW file. Are those welcomed here? Technically you can post pics here developed from this process but only if you use the HDR development process. : : I'm doing HDR with Maya or another 3D rendering application, is this group just for photos? It started out that way, but your high-quality output renderings using HDR are welcome here. Especially if they help us learn more about what HDR is and how it is used in other mediums.

My cousin has recommended PKD. I might get my hands on one of this books or two...

**Lorizael** · May 5, 2006, 13:20

Dick was crazy. And so are his books. He will **** with your mind.

**Ecthy** · May 5, 2006, 13:24

Yeah, my cousin told me about one with some house were several people live in, and it's all one guy's mind

That's what makes him great

Still pisses me off that Hollywood screwed up my favorite short story ever ("Paycheck")

**Lorizael** · May 5, 2006, 13:31

Very few of Dick's stories have been made into good movies. His stories almost always take place in the mind of the protagonist, and mental landscapes do not generally translate very well into motion picture landscapes.

That's where the new Genesis camera comes in, currently the only movie using it, and the first to use it, is for Superman Returns.

Me too. I'm glad this is art instead of gimmick.

I'd hardly call Richard Linklater (Waking Life, School of Rock, Dazed and Confused, Slacker, Before Sunrise/Sunset, Bad News Bears remake) a "gimmicky" director. If anything, he's experimental.

No, it's a gimmick, if you see more than 1 or 2 more movies like this, then it's not a gimmick.

The very first Lord of the Rings movie used a pathetic attempt of animating live actors also.

ACK!
