Just curious as to how many people have seen the movie Waking Life directed by Richard Linklater whose other films include Dazed and Confused and A Scanner Darkly. The movie is very surreal and it's about a dream within a dream within a dream within a dream... all of the characters in the movie are actually dream characters created by the main character. At times he is aware he is dreaming (lucid), and even has a conversation about knowing he's in a dream with one of them (something i've done before ) Im fairly certain watching this movie, and the string of circumstance that lead me to it is responsible for stimulating my lucid dreaming, which started about 7 months ago now: |

AND GestaltAlteration, who is back
It was a nice movie, but I never finished it. Had a lot of meaning to it. At first, I hated it, cause I expected more of it, haha. |

Is this what lucid dreaming really looks like? I've never experienced one so I wouldn't know |
|
Good, because this movie was trippy with all the characters/objects floating around while the walls and such stayed stationary. |

I'm glad you took it upon yourself to seek out and watch the film vetuxo! Hopefully it will have the same effect for you that it had on me... and if it does... you are in for a treat... because i've nailed down my own personal process to having WILD's (wake induced lucid dreams) down to a science. I know exactly when too go to sleep so that i'll wake up naturally 4-5.5 hours later and then i'll lie awake for a while (30mins to an hour) before trying to go back to sleep. Probably 3 days a week i'll have 3-6 hour long sessions where i go back and forth from being awake directly into lucidity sometimes 6 and 7 times a before im too awake to get back to sleep. So ya... over the past seven months i've probably had close to if not more than 100 lucid experiences, and i've been able to do anything and everything i've wanted to so far except for Throw a Fireball and Total Dreamscene change (except the time i climbed through a mirror and found myself in the kitchen of a really nice house where a bowl of cereal was waiting for me on a countertop), but that's a bird of a different feather |

I watched this film last night and I loved it. Also, it gave me my first lucid dream which is really cool! |

Well worth the watch, though i diasgree with the cartoonish sort of effect it doesn't ruin the film completely, go buy it |
|
I started it last night. I had a lucid, and also had a weird dream where Marlon Brando was saying all kind of profound things, like the characters in the movie are doing. |
|
I watched it. It didn't give me a lucid-dream though. I liked it a lot. I love that kind of movies. All the weird talking. Talking that doesn't make much sense, yet it's interesting. |

Lost count of how many lucid dreams I've had

i found it really hard to understand although my favourite bit is when there lying in the bed talking about the last ten minites of brain activity before you die, and how all this could be those last ten minites looking back. it reli got me thinking |
|
My favourite part is when the girl in the street starts talking to him about the connection between people being inexistent and that she wants to change that and they start talking about how it feels to be in a lucid dream. Really cool! |

I like it, when those 4 guys walk through the city and see that old man on the pole. Also, when he's in the cinema, watching those other 2 guys talking about certain moments. When they turn into skies. |

LD Count: 7
Longest time in a lucid dreamstate: ~6 seconds
Still, the most epic six seconds I have ever experienced...
Waking Life is really a Fantastic Movie with a Fantastic Tango soundtrack. Very Mysterious and it really sends you away bewondered and in deep thought about the nature of this thing called ''reality''. Always a good thing to doubt ''Reality'' cuz what's real may not all be that real and what's rediculous may not all be that rediculous. |
