Has anyone seen the bonus disk to Inception? It's very good, Stephen LaBerge is interviewed in it along with many others.
Can someone explain to me how dragon age origins is about lucid dreaming?
Long time i didn't update this thread, let's ressurect it xD.
Don't see very well the relation between peter pan and lucid dream. From what i remember they didn't have to sleep to get to neverland. They went there flying.

The song My Enemy by Super8 & Tab feat. Julie Thompson. I've heard other references in some other songs, but either never found out the title, or just forgot it xP

Beneath the surface there’s a world that no one sees
A hideaway where I’ve got everything I need
eternal sunshine of the spotless mind has some lucid dream type stuff in it. but it isn't about lucid dreaming at all. if alice in wonderland is on the list I think this should be as well.
Season 5 episode 15 of American Dad
The recent Psych Christmas Special heavily featured lucid dreaming - about half of the episode was a lucid dream! Although they don't mention it by name, lucid dreaming was the theme of the episode. It even gets into Dream Guides and stuff like that.
That movie Ink looks incredible.. The cinematography, the plot, everything about it.Quote:

I vaguely remember that website but don't think I've read one of its articles before, but that was hilarious. Much of it was true or not far from the truth, or sometimes just ougrageous, making it funny.Quote:

The pure state of ecstatic joy in your brain will be unconquerable. Research has shown that spinning will prolong lucid dreams for 96% of people. It works best to rub your hands together and spin around at the same time. Finally, there's a use for the very actions that got you beat up in high school!"
Hahaha. Yeah. Cracked is great. :chuckle:
