watched the movie last night. and then spent hours thinking about it. even today at the 3 hour crap meeting with no food, i spent most of the time nodding my head in agreement with the boss but i was really thinking about the movie.
can't wait to go home and watch it again.

I didnt get the part about the 3rd guy and how he got involved - explain.
- lifeinbinary0
yes it is, usrper.
and its one of the most complex movies i've ever watched. i think i got most of it but want to watch it again to figure it out some more. its like a fun puzzle.
all of this on a $7000 budget. that's good film making.

yum. cant wait till weekend.

spendogg, don't want to give too much away for the benefit of those who haven't watched the movie.
so anyone who hasn't watched it, please stop reading now. STOP IT I SAID, BITCH!

ok, so i think that the third guy is the main guy. he is the one who we see ever since the first bench scene. the 2nd guy is the narrator. and the first one - well he is the fool they keep drugging up. the rats in the attic is not a rat. all of this is speculation and i need to watch it again.

Everytime I see the trailer, at first I think its about a scandinavian garagepunk band.
I dont buy the budget, it costs triple that just to process the film for a feature length movie - any film.

i am not sure how he managed but thats what he claims. its almost a one man show. he is the writer, director, cinematographer, editor and actor.

i am afraid i don't get the question. i blame the hour of the day. and the lack of oxygen.

SPOILER ALERTT!

Ok life, why did they drug the guy - was he the one that built a third pod - who stole what from who and why?

buy the DVD and watch w/ director commentary. He did indeed make it for the said amount, there's alot of mess ups in the movie, but overall a stellar debut.

*****spoiler alert*****
spendogg, here's something from Shane Carruth's interview:
"The narrator is the second Aaron, so he doesn't have direct information about what happens after he leaves. There's a struggle between the second and third Aaron, and after that point [the narrator] is talking in very subjective terms: "How many times did it take before he got it right? Two? Three? 20?" He doesn't actually know. We're seeing information, but he doesn't have direct knowledge of it, so there's no way to know how many there are. There's at least three Aaron that he knows about, and at least two Abes. But it could be lots."

Fukin brilliant - you should have seen the look on my wifes face when that movie was over - it was like whaaaat theeee fuckkkkk.

Thank god somebody else loved this movie. Everybody I tell to watch it say it sucks.
Some spoilers. Not real big ones.
Anyway, it's fantastic. It's very subdued. No shitty over the top acting to get in the way. I am also very impressed that they didn't have to resort to CG for the time machine. It felt so real that afterwards I figured I would go build my own.
Absolutely one of the best movies of all time. Unfortunately it won't get the credit it deserves.
