Pick up the book. It is great, much better than the movie. Though both are good, the book just explains everything better.

i was highly disappointed with the movie :smirk:
i watched it two days ago after about 7 months of waiting!

i expected much more depth and thought provoking material...
still i have to watch it a couple more times though (unfortunately my damn DVD isn't working :crankey:)

The depth is in the conversations that the characters have. Like most Richard Linklater movies.

I've yet to see the movie, but i did enjoy the book.

I never like the movie after I read the book, so I've been putting it off.

After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action.  If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it.  - Ernest Hemingway

If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it.  In the law courts, in business, in government.  There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent.    -Cormac MacCarthy

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.  - Aeschylus

I'm really not understanding why everybody has to watch this movie again. Unless you were really high or just not paying attention, there's no subtlety to the movie at all.

I tried watching Waking Life on mushrooms once because everyone was telling me "OMG THE MOVIE IS SO DEEP" and bullshit like that. It kind of just pissed me off and made me not want to watch it, however I did enjoy it while stoned/sober.
