Quote:

Shane Carruth, writer and director of the lo-fi scifi flick Primer, has uploaded the entire film to Google Video so you can watch it for free. If you liked the time-twists of Inception, you'll love Primer - it's even crazier.

Carruth wrote, directed and starred in this understated, weird movie that came out in 2004. It's the most realistic depiction of time travel you're ever likely to see, and it leads to a temporal paradox that gets more interesting the more you think about it.

This is one of the most amazing films I've ever seen. I watched it after reading Wil Wheaton go on about it in his blog, and I still think about it to this day.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

I can get my head around roughly 5 of the 9 timelines, but after the bit where they go to the party I start to lose track about which of them was actually there.

Primer is amazing. Watch it a few times, then watch it with someone else who hasn't seen it before so you can watch them flounder.

That basejumping programme on Channel 4 was good, the crazy bastards. I'd never have the balls to do anything like that.

I wish they hadn't shown the accident three times, though. It made me feel a little sick, bringing back almost the exact feeling I went through before I crashed.

I knew the accident coming as soon as they said they were going for one last go. Years of riding wee bikes & planks of wood around taught me that if you go for one last shot/trick you'll slam!

Yep. You let your guard down, get a little cocky and push yourself further without knowing it.

No, I can well imagine lots of people seeing black people in a new light after something like the Cosby Show.

There's definitely some truth to this, people slam more when it's nearly time to go because they're tired. But it's also a bit like saying that your keys are always in the last place you look. If you don't have a colossal slam then you'll usually have another last go, and another etc.

But apart from that BASE jumping is just a ridiculous hobby, how anyone can get into something with such a high mortality rate is beyond me. Definitely some wrongo brain-wiring somewhere.

Yes, there's a world of difference between thinking that and actually throwing yourself of a building, though.

You know how the hills we drove up in the Tomcat look like little slopes through a camera? The same applies to the jumps the X-Fighters do. It's well worth £48.

I really want to go and see it. I saw the Crusty Demons do a similar show inside the MEN Arena in Manchester a few years ago, and it was a bloody great show. The height and distance they get is incredible.

~£50 is fine with me for a ticket, but factoring in travel and accommodation costs brings it well out of my price bracket right now.

Someone remind me about Primer later eh? I'm at work just now and I'm quite interested in watching it but I'll have forgotten by hometime. Tweet me! :kiss:

Also, Londoners. We are still quite likely for a weekend in London in August but it may now be 26th-29th. I would imagine we would want a night out on the 27th (Friday). I will let you know when it is confirmed.
