We like to praise birds for flying. But how much of it is actually flying, and how much of it is just sort of coasting from that last flap? - Jack Handy
Listen to Computer Love by Kraftwerk. From 1981. Tell me Coldplay didn't lift that riff wholesale. Time signature and chord progression can be similar, but riffs are like DNA. Larceny begins at 1:15
Could be fake, but it's a white wool cap and you can see it under his chest if you look quickly
Most folks are running away from a simple truth - the three characteristics of existence are suffering, impersonality, and impermanence. No one is the same person they were even as long ago as yesterday, yet we cling to the idea that somewhere, someone, something, anything, remains the same. It's a trick your mind plays to trap your heart.
You forgot to add “not that there's anything wrong with that”
Buried in the source code: Look, I know this code is hawt. And you want to steal it all. But let me tell you a secret. I stole this code from someone else. So it's not me who you'll be hurting, but some poor sap who is now not only getting code stolen by me, but now by you. Shameless.

I didn't read the graphic novel (I've never read a graphic novel, actually), didn't know any of the story going in. 8.5 at IMDB after 4000 votes is pretty solid so I went. I thought it was phenomenal. I always dread reading reviews of movies like this that I enjoyed because they usually explain why I can no longer enjoy the movie. Not this time. The movie is a stunning visual achievement, and like Ebert, there was so much going on in some frames that I don't think I will see it all in three viewings. I wish they would have developed Dr. Manhattan's quantum reality a little more, the love scene in the Owl was a little too earnest for it's own good, and the gore level could offend some, though all I see is movie props in service of a story so it didn't bother me. What this movie did have was intelligence, and a voice. It reminded me a little of Firesign Theater and how they twisted our own reality just a bit to come up with something completely alien, but familiar at the same time. Recognition of the normal in the weird highlights the weird in the normal. And character development - I thought the old newstand guy and the teenager's character was better developed than any of the character's in The Good German. All that, and I didn't look at my watch once.
