    Guys, this movie is silly. It's so silly. Why don't we talk about how silly this movie is?

    This film is like seeing Christopher Nolan with no clothes, just pure gleeful contrived psuedo science fiction with twists stacked on twists. You guys realise there's two scenes of these men reading each others diaries with the twist of "aha, i am adressing you, who i anticipated reading this!" and they're less than 10 minutes apart? You realise this movie cast David Bowie as Nikola Tesla? It's so fucking silly.

    I still don't know what to make of all this. the English dub is fun, tho I've a bit too much baggage with most of these actors, I remember feeling like Mahito was distinctly more prickly in JP? there is a slight vibe shift

    One day this will click with me and it's gonna be really obvious

    Hertzfeldt has come so far and yet still absolutely indentifiable in his sensibilities

    Absolutely hilarious combined with the other intro segments for the its such a beautiful day screening
