all i can say isWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWW
a friend who had seen it rented it and we blazed and watched it that movie is very intense, if you listen to what they are saying its all very interesting
the best thing to do is to think is what you are seeing on the screen at one time a dream or is it reality. parts will seem reall then some f*cked sh*t will happen

i suggest it to any one that wants to trip

Yeah, definitely one of the better movies i've seen recently and is actually one of my favourite movies ever. I'll second that notion of avoid trying to understand everything in it if you're more than slightly stoned, it's quite fast paced, especially the professor bit.

I think i'll watch it again toady.

This movie is the heat. No real coherent plot just random characters talking philosophical about life. Basicly its "Slackers" with tripped out animation. The Captian of the carboat had me tripping out and the scene with the scene with the guy talking about lucid dreaming funked me up.

I agree with the Narc...Slackers, Linklater's first movie, is really a great film journey...I recommend that to all who enjoyed waking life, I think you will find Slackers even better...trippy, really something else!

Definatley one of my favorite movies... you can go here: http://www.prism.gatech.edu/~gte484v/wakinglife.html and read all the dialouge.

I really like this:

"I mean, it's like we go through life with our antennas bouncing off one another continuously on "ant" autopilot with nothing really human required of us. "Stop," "Go," "Walk here," "Drive there." All action basically for survival. All communication simply to keep this ant colony buzzing along in an efficient, polite manner. "Here's your change," "Paper or plastic?", "Credit or debit?", "Do you want ketchup with that?" I don't want a straw. I want real human moments. I want to see you. I want you to see me. I don't want to give that up. I don't want to be an ant. Ya know?"

That's so true. I love that. What's your guys' favorite scene?

My favourite scene would probably be with the professor, talking about Evolution. But damn, it's hard to follow if you're stoned.

Nice find Preztel. As I siad earlier the scene with the boat-car guy is freaking aswome, and will definately mellow you out. Great way to start a movie.

So what do you think about my little vessel? She's what we call "see-worthy," s-e-e, see with your eyes. I feel like my transport should be an extension of my personality, voila. And this (pointing to the windshield)...this is like my little window to the world, and every minute is a different show. Now I may not understand it, I may not even necessarily agree with it, but I tell you what, I accept it and just sorta glide along. You want to keep things on an even keel, I guess is what I'm saying. You want to go with the flow, the sea refuses no river. The idea is to remain in a state of constant departure, while always arriving. It saves on introductions and goodbyes. The ride does not require an explanation, just occupants. That's where you guys come in. It's like you come onto this planet with a crayon box. Now you may get the 8-pack, or you may get the 16-pack...but it's all in what you do with the crayons, the colors, that you're given. Don't worry about drawing within the lines, or coloring outside the lines; I say color outside the lines, you know what I mean? Color right off the page. Don't box me in! We're in motion to the ocean. We are not land-locked, I'll tell you that! So, where do you want out?
Wiley: Uh who me? Am I first? Uh, really anywhere is fine.
Bill: Well just give me an address or something.
Other passanger: I'll tell you what, go up three more streets, take a right, go two more blocks, drop this guy off on the next corner.
Wiley: Where's that?
Bill: Well I dunno either, but it's somewhere...and it's going to determine the course of the rest of your life. All ashore that's going ashore! Toot toot.

Yeah... I love that one. I've heard some people say that they think at that point Wiley, the main character, is still awake. Then that car comes and hits him and he's really dead for the rest of the movie, but he doesn't know it, and that's why he can't wake up. I think that's an interesting way to look at it.
