And I think I still have a cowpoke around here somewhere, maybe... if he's not chasing sheep.

If he is, well, there's always Frunie. BC would probably trade for him.

well... hmm... I will have to watch it again. I understand the ladies impetus with Mr. Bloom and Mr. Depp...

The whole dead thing was a nice touch... as was Mr. Depp's grabbing a coin and becoming 'dead'... but there were a ton of stereotypes in it that... bothered me. The Pirate city was all up in arms and fighting amongst themselves... the rum drinking... etc. Maybe if I hadn't studied that time period as much as I have... I had a bit of a problem suspending all my beliefs.

Don't get me wrong... it was a very well written movie... but... there was something... missing.

Yeah, it's more like a fairy tale and you can let your imagination run wild.

Since it was Disney, it was pretty sterile. All those white uniforms and no dirt or blood on any of them. Even when they were getting run through with swords. :rollin:

And I love Johnny Depp. :love:

I-am-so-Johns-girl is right, a lot of those scenes were from the ride at Disney Land and Disney World (I go to Disney World) that's why they were in the movie. The Pirate City scene, when Depp was in prison with the other pirates and the dog had the key, that was was also from the ride.

The Second Coming of Philip K. Dick

The inside-out story of how a hyper-paranoid, pulp-fiction hack conquered the movie world 20 years after his death.

By Frank Rose

The unbilled costar of Paycheck, the latest Hollywood thriller from

Nicole Panter
FEATURE:

The Second Coming of Phillip K. Dick

PLUS:

Reality Check

The Metaphysics of Philip K. Dick

The Hollywood Treatment
the battered typewriter of Philip K. Dick, is a bullet. A crack engineer named Jennings, played by Ben Affleck, finds himself in a jam, as Dick's characters invariably do, and the bullet is headed his way. Spiraling through the air in superslow motion, it pierces his chest in a plume of red and bores into his heart. Or does it? Though the image recurs throughout the film, it's hard to tell whether it's actually happening or not. Philip K. Dick liked nothing better than to toy with the fundamentals of human existence, reality chief among them, so what better for the movie than a bullet that may or may not be tearing through the main character's flesh? Like other Dick protagonists - Tom Cruise in Minority Report, Arnold Schwarzenegger in Total Recall, Harrison Ford in Blade Runner- Affleck finds himself struggling for equilibrium in a world where even the most elemental questions are almost impossible to answer. Can the senses be trusted? Are memories real? Is anything real?

Paycheck, directed by John Woo and set to open Christmas Day, is the latest in a run of films based on Philip K. Dick stories that began 21 years ago with Blade Runner. The writer's hallucinatory tales make for suspense with an epistemological twist: full-bore action pics that turn on questions of perception versus reality. Having agreed to have his memory erased after completing a super-sensitive job, Jennings learns that he apparently signed away his $4.4 billion paycheck in exchange for an envelope of trinkets. Armed men are chasing him, but he has no idea why until he teams up with Rachel (Uma Thurman), whom he vaguely recalls meeting just before he started the job. Jennings, it turns out, is a man who has seen the future but can't remember it.

Dick died shortly before Blade Runner's release in 1982, and, despite a cult readership, he spent most of his life in poverty. Yet now, more than two decades later, the future he saw has made him one of the most sought-after writers in Hollywood. Paycheck, based on a 1953 short story Dick sold to a pulp magazine for less than $200, will bring close to $2 million to his estate. And movies based on more than a half-dozen other stories and novels are in the works - among them "The King of the Elves" at Disney, "The Short, Happy Life of the Brown Oxford" at Miramax, and A Scanner Darkly at Warner Bros.

Dick's anxious surrealism all but defines contemporary Hollywood science fiction and spills over into other kinds of movies as well. His influence is pervasive in The Matrix and its sequels, which present the world we know as nothing more than an information grid; Dick articulated the concept in a 1977 speech in which he posited the existence of multiple realities overlapping the "matrix world" that most of us experience. Vanilla Sky, with its dizzying shifts between fantasy and fact, likewise ventures into a Dickian warp zone, as does Dark City, The Thirteenth Floor, and David Cronenberg's eXistenZ. Memento reprises Dick's memory obsession by focusing on a man whose attempts to avenge his wife's murder are complicated by his inability to remember anything. In The Truman Show, Jim Carrey discovers the life he's living is an illusion, an idea Dick developed in his 1959 novel Time Out of Joint. Next year, Carrey and Kate Winslet will play a couple who have their memories of each other erased in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Memory, paranoia, alternate realities: Dick's themes are everywhere.

At a time when most 20th-century science fiction writers seem hopelessly dated, Dick gives us a vision of the future that captures the feel of our time. He didn't really care about robots or space travel, though they sometimes turn up in his stories. He wrote about ordinary Joes caught in a web of corporate domination and ubiquitous electronic media, of memory implants and mood dispensers and counterfeit worlds. This strikes a nerve. "People cannot put their finger anymore on what is real and what is not real," observes Paul Verhoeven, the one-time Dutch mathematician who directed Total Recall. "What we find in Dick is an absence of truth and an ambiguous interpretation of reality. Dreams that turn out to be reality, reality that turns out to be a dream. This can only sell when people recognize it, and they can only recognize it when they see it in their own lives."

Like the babbling psychics who predict future crimes in Minority Report, Dick was a precog. Lurking within his amphetamine-fueled fictions are truths that have only to be found and decoded. In a 1978 essay he wrote: "We live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups. I ask, in my writing, What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudorealities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives. I distrust their power. It is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing."

Viewed in this context, Dick's emergence in Hollywood seems oddly inevitable. His career itself is a tale of alternate realities. In the flesh he was the ultimate outsider, pecking out paranoid visions that place the little guy at the mercy of the corporate machine. Yet posthumously he feeds the machine, his pseudoworlds the basis of ever more elaborate entertainments doled out by the megacorporations we pay to stuff our heads. How he made the leap from pulp-fiction writer to Hollywood prophet is a tale almost worthy of the man himself.

Dick's career in movies did not begin with a bang. It was 1977, and a small-time actor named Brian Kelly wanted to option the 9-year-old novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? For a mere $2,500, he got it. "The works of Philip K. Dick were not exactly in demand," recalls the writer's New York literary agent, Russell Galen, "and for Phil" - then 49 and living in suburban Orange County - "that was enough to make the difference between a good year and a bad year." Kelly's partner wrote a screenplay and shopped it around. Eventually it landed on the desk of Ridley Scott, who'd just directed Alien. Scott brought in a new writer and sent it to Alan Ladd Jr., one of the top players in Hollywood. the rest of the article appears here (http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.12/philip.html)

Not to mention that new movie out called Paycheck - also a Dick short story.

I've not read much Harlan Ellison, I guess I know him best for that original Star Trek story. Harlan is an opinionated SOB, but a lot of times he is right. He went to Ohio State briefly (I don't think he graduated) and in a writing class was told he had absolutely no future as a writer and should give it up. Years later he was invited back as a speaker. He charged the university a huge appearance fee, and them slammed the school. I thought that was hilarious.

The first two books were basically just novelizations of the movies, with a little extra added in for flavor (more character insights, a few extra scenes that didn't alter the movie stories in any way other than to enhance, etc . . .)

From what I understand - baby boys urine is sterile. Baby girls urine is not quite so much, cause it has to deal with skins folds and such.

But if men's urine kills athelets foot - then it is not sterile.

Uggghhh, and here we'd hijacked this thread in so much better a direction... *sigh*

Well, urine from an undiseased bladder is sterile. If, however on the way out it passes through an area that contains contaminants, the urine will become unsterilized. This is why it has a greater chance of becoming contaminated coming out of a woman. Guy's for the most part are "exit only", whereas a female of the species, well...

As for peeing on one's feet to kill athletes foot fungus, I would suspect it is most likely the acid content of the urine, not the sterility that does the trick.

Believe it or not, I actually know the answer to this one. Its the urea in the urine that is beneficial to the skin. My doctor prescribed a foot balm for me that has urea as the main ingredient. Its perfumed and all, but I still feel like I'm applying something icky to the bottoms of my feet. LOL!

I have a question for the girls...Boys, be warned! :D

Previously (on Farscape...not really, just couldn't help it!), I mentioned that I had had my period every day since I got the first shot of depo-provera. I think I also stated that the docs had put me on an additional birth control pill to boost my hormones. Well, now I'm on the placebo portion of those pills, when you're supposed to have your period (if you're not on depo). I've taken 4 days worth, have 3 left, and I just today got my period again. Do you girls think it will go away once I start the regular pills again? I hope so. :( I don't want to go through all that again...

I'm not supposed to get one with depo, it's just taking a while to kick in.

I asked about Mirena...but, and correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the one that's only for women who've had children already and don't want more? Maybe I'm making that up...

It's not for those that don't want more but it's convenient if you want to restart again quick too. Being that there is no hormone you can have it taken out and start right away and have no problems. With a pill it can take a long time for the hormones to leave you system and with the shots you would have to wait til that wears off too. I don't plan on having another one but if I do decide to then I wouldn't have a problem doing so. In my case if I got tied then it's perm but with this I will still have an open option...

JadedLegend3
01-05-2004, 06:00 PM

I was on the pill for years but now I can't have birth control with a hormone...so I only have that one option...or take a few chances and that is something I don't want to do right now.

You could always try the withdrawal method... like my buddy and his wife used... and that is how their 2nd and 3rd child came about. Then my buddy was... snipped. Poor Eunuch.

Good to hear from someone who has one. Hopefully this month, I'll be going in to the doc's to talk about getting one myself. I can't take the pill or get the shots because I appear to have really bad reactions to hormone treatments. Personally, I can't wait, and I'm praying I can get one. Should be able to. I fit the requirements listed in the paperwork. Just have to see what the doc says. *keeps her fingers crossed*

The only problem I had to get mine was the insurance company didn't want to pay for it at first....The thing costs $$$$$. My doc had to tell them of the other medications I was on and that the pill or shots were not an option for me...Plus the fact that I went through hell with my daughter that a chance of the same problems with another child would be high...so I was able to get it for medical reasons and not just for birth control...

Plus the highlight is no periods....

Well, I don't have insurance, which is why I had to wait until this month (maybe next month) to do it. Had to wait for the up front cash to be available. Yes, it is expensive, but not bad when you look at the fact that it's good for 5 years. You're just paying for all 5 years up front.

Your reasons for getting it sound similar to mine. I had complications with the first child and shouldn't have another (very high chance of all sorts of badness.) But I'm not so sure that I want to risk the potential complications that can occur with getting my tubes tied, I've had a history of excessive periods, and who wouldn't like to avoid periods altogether, so . . . Mirena seems like the best option.

Mirena sounds interesting.

Although, I decided to have the permanent tubal option. Both of my deliveries were c-sections. I decided that two were plenty.........plus being over the age of 35........having another c-section would be considered high risk.

I will say, though, my tubal was much more painful than my two c-sections. So-called "outpatient" surgery........where they send you home the same day is awful. The meds just can't mask the fresh pain from surgery!!! I was so mad.........because the dr. lied and said that it would be nothing..........so I didn't get anyone to help me at home with the kids.

Oh that sounds terrible. Time to change doctors. I am only 34 so I am still young enough to have more if I so choose to. I remember after my daughter was born I begged to have the factory shut down. My doc talked me out of it and I am glad he did. So this method is right for me. :) When I slip over the 40 mark then I will have it done. Who knows...

Actually you should go anyways and make the apt yourself. At any age something could happen. It's always best to have an annual checkup just to make sure. I had my first visit at age 16...When I was 19 I discovered a problem that would not have been detected had I not gone for my checkup.....Better safe than sorry....

I compeltely agree with BrowderChick! I didn't go until I was 21 (and I'm only 22 now). I went for the first time this summer. It was nothing at all! Yeah, it's embarassing and can be a bit degrading, but it's nothing to get worked up about.

My mother never once talked to me about going, and still hasn't. I took it upon myself to go. I was having horrible periods and couldn't live with it any longer. So, I got the website off of my insurance card, found out who accepted my insurance and then scheduled an appointment.

However, I know that my adult friends always told me I should go, and I never wanted to. It's definately something I think you have to be ready for. But trust me, kiddo! It's nothing! Just a little friendly groping all in the name of science! LOL

Exactly right. I was very stupid for not going as long as I didn't go. My family doctor had speculated that I had endometirosis (sp?), and did ultrasounds to reveal my ovarian cysts. I should have gone long before I did.

Yup, you're right. Seems to me that in "man's fall" women have suffered more! LOL

The only way to detect endometriosis is to do a little surgery thing, where they go down through your belly button. I said, just give me a pain pill and leave my belly button alone! :rollin:

My maternal grandmother had cervical cancer and had a complete hysterectomy before she was 50, my mother had ovarian cysts and had a hysterectomy by 40, and my paternal grandmother died of ovarian cancer. You're right, grinner, there is a lot that can go wrong with women "down there."

Cysts? Yeah, my insurance company won't cover to have them removed because they'll mostly either grow back, and if untreated, they'll just burst anyway. Which one of mine did. The smaller of the ones I had then. Felt great. Frellling HMOs.

It's your choice to go or not but I really think you should. She is your mom and should understand your need to go. You can have nothing wrong but at least go and just make sure you are healthy...Your mom can go with you or you can have a nurse in the room with you. When I first went I had all kinds of questions I didn't want to ask my mom. I have been with the same doctor for over 15 years. I think he knows me better than I know myself.

I don't want to get into your business, but if you're over 18, or sexually active, you really should go. Yes, the risk will be bigger when you're, but young women can and do get cervical cancer. Surely your campus has a student health center that you could go to if you're embarrassed about your mother finding out? Student health services are pretty low cost at most universities.

I so agree. There is so much you can learn about yourself talking to a doctor and asking questions. Completely in confident.....

I am on my second Depo shot. I'd been on The Pill for 26 years and would have been happy to stay on it until menopause, except that I developed high blood pressure, and was experiencing increasing break through bleeding. My gyn has not been able to find a reason for this "disfunctional bleeding". She first put me on Micronor but I had annoying side effects, plus it did not eliminate the problem. Don't know how it worked as birth control, didn't stop bleeding long enough to have sex. So the next choice was Depo.

Depo slowed things a bit, but still had 3 week periods with only a couple weeks inbetween. Apparently extended bleeding is not uncommon for the first couple of shots, dispite what the Depo website says, according to the nurse at my gyn's office. When I went in for my second shot, I mentioned that I was still bleeding a lot and too frequently. The nurse suggested that I might want to try taking 2 ibupropen evey six hours while I was awake, for 3 days. This seems to help shut off the faucet. I have yet to try this (I hope I won't have to try it), but if you are having problems, you might give it a try. I think the dose was 500 mg ibupropen or naproxen sodium (Alieve), but not Aspirin. Of course if you have any allergies or reactions to such medications, or are on other meds where you shouldn't take these pain relievers, or have problems with stomach bleeding, consult your doctor first.......your standard pharmachological warning.

If I am still having problems I will get on my gyn more persistantly. If anyone is having heavy prolonged bleeding, they should definately get it checked out, no matter what their age. Sometimes there is no reason for it, so it doesn't automatically mean you have a serious problem, but then again you might, and the earlier you can get it diagnosed the more effective any treatment will be.
