Oh! I couldn’t download the songs. I will have to wait and buy the CD… But it’s a fantastic movie.

About “The Dreamland Chroniles Musical”… Some of the best musical ever made wasn’t planned to be a musical in the start. For example, “The Phantom Of The Opera” (the one I like the most) was a romance.

Maybe someday someone “convert” Dreamland to a musical. Or maybe you make an epilogue after the end with a party, like in Shrek movies. Or a “gueststrip” (a guestvideo).

Well, I know that animated musicals are a bit corny – but I recently watched “Enchanted” and it really reminded me of how much I miss and adore those kind of films. I guess most of us here grew up with the musical Disney movies and I believe that most of us still love them (in spite of Disney doing only very few good movies these days).

So personally I agree wholeheartedly with the idea that Dreamland should be a musical if it’s made into a movie. I also think that a 2D style on Dreamland would be interesting to see (as you can see, I really am nostalgic about this…).

My money is on a younger Nicole having been the child friend that
Felicity misses so much.

Oh, when I was a little kid and sick, I always wanted to hear the “record with the apple”, which was (of course) the “White Album” of 1968. Very very fond memories. I still listen to my MP3 CD with all Beatles songs ever recorded.

Now that is a very interesting theory of Silverwolf. What if the inhabitants of Dreamland are really just dreamers themselves? Perhaps comatose patients, cause they never seem to wake up…

Nicole: “You’re filling his little head with science fiction stories!”
Alex: “You mean like Jules Verne’s sci-fi, where some guy built a submarine that could go for months without resurfacing, or where a manned mission was sent to the moon? Gee, I can’t imagine we’d ever be able to do something like that…”
Daniel: “Oh, and there’s no possible way that there’s anything documented about Tibetan Monks doing things with only the power of the mind…”

Ooh, frightening idea…what if Nicole was really Nastajia, and she’s just repressed when conscious?

Even the Beatles were before my time, I still enjoyed Across the Universe quite a bit. My lack of prior knowledge on a lot of the songs did not stop me from appreciating how well done it all was.

Yeah, I discovered the Beatles when I was about thirteen. I then became the weird kid in school that listened to old music, like Motown, and Queen, and Simon and Garfunkle.
I didn’t care, I always thought that my eclectic sense of music helped me to become independent from the pop culture of the time, and I’m rather proud to be a bit of a kooky individual today.

… Anyway, That was a really well done movie. The choreography and cinematography was just as great as the music was. I love the Army Recruitment scene. It gave me the feeling some guy from the sixties wrote this, like he always had the vision but not the means to do it.
