Wow, looks like Japanese animators have hit an all time high for a crazy and psychotic movie...I love it! Too bad I won't be able to see it in the movie theatre, though.

I probably won't make it out tonight and this weekend is beyond fully booked. will most likely check it out Monday or Tuesday of next week, but nobody needs to wait for me if you're interested in going sooner. :wink:

As I understand it, it deals with a device that allows people to go into someone else's dreams. I'm sure it leads to some naughty/horrific uses.

This is from the same guy who did Millenium Actress and Tokyo Godfathers, both great films. I plan on going on Sunday July 1st.
Any one else interested?

Yar, it's no longer playing in Shirlington (made it out there, wasn't listed at the theater itself) :mad: Paprika is only playing at the E Street Cinema in DC. I'd be down for a Sunday showing as well.

I'm planing on going.
I guess we'll have to nail down a time.
I think the 12:10 is my best option
