well, i really liked "A Scanner Darkly", which came out last year. based on PKD (who is great) and done by Richard Linklater, using a very cool animation technique called digital rotoscoping. stars Keanu Reeves, Robert Downey Jr, and Winona Rider > Philip was an over-the-top crazy, a man with so many ideas > running through his brain that society is still trying to > absorb them all.
