Hey, for the first time, I'll be able to watch a PKD film AFTER reading the book the first! It's been the other way round for all other PKD-based films
I can't imagine how the book will translate to screen - it's a pretty weird concept in the first place. I wonder how many will see it without any knowledge of the original story and think "What the hell was that all about!"
Or they might just look at it on a purely visual level and think "Nice cartoon, but I've no idea what's going on" - that could affect it's overall rating in the same way that Blade Runner is under-rated.
I know what they need - a
VOICE-OVER version! Anyone got the phone number for 'Irvine the Explainer"?
It isn't released until 18 Aug in the UK, so I may have to avoid spoiler posts for a couple of months. They really ought to do simultaneous world-wide releases as standard nowadays - I'm fed up of having to wait 2 months to see a film that everyone has already discussed on the internet.
