The composition of the movie was excellent, but there's no way these subjects were treated with enough care. The director has chosen to include background elements from their lives, likely in order to humanize them a bit, but really just ends up making them all look like losers or sociopaths. I seriously doubt these people are this feckless in real life.

I think there's been a mistake -- isn't that a still from Bamboozled?

I admit -- I didn't see last year's version of this movie, so I can't say much about that, but DAMN, this movie was good,

I also think that this looks very similar to last year's sxsw hit Second Skin, which was excellent. Can't wait to see it!

Re: stormtrooper (btw, wtf?) Star Wars has had a role playing game for a long time. Also, this looks very similar to former UT lecturer and KVRX broadcast advisor Steve Metze's 2004 Über Goober. Will be looking forward to it.
