I tried digging up the old thread where we were first discussing this, but I kept getting a "this thread does not exist" message so I thought I'd start a new one. Did anyone else pick up Paprika on DVD (or Blu-ray)?

I wasn't able to see it in the theaters (hooray for only having one theater in town show it and only show it for a week). I knew it'd be interesting though (based on Kon's other work and the trailer), so I went today and picked it up at Wal-Mart. I found it highly enjoyable, and I like how it plays a bit with what's really real and what's just a dream. I heard the movie was based on a novel by Yasutaka Tsutsui, so I may have to try and dig that up if possible. The whole story's interesting.

Anyone else care to share thoughts? [Smile]

Ooh, I was wondering when this would come out. I'll have to add it to my wish-list.

I've got you trumped.

The small theater in town here only played it ONCE, during my Physical Chemistry exam.

Grrr...

I'll be sure to check it out though.

Indeed it does. I'm quite glad that I picked it up. Still no luck finding the novel though. *grumble grumble*

On a side note, hooray for posting from school during my conference period. [Big Grin]

I dunno about this one, existential trips through somebody's mind via an anime conduit has yet to be interesting to me.
