    If you are a troll and your respect is measured in the 3rd decimal point it is time to move on to a new forum me thinks.

    Yes, time for you to move on.

    I was drunk last, Mick. Full of jokes I only find funny. However, if you're willing to create the account for me elsewhere I can look into posting there... Just too busy. Thanks and have a wonderful day.

After getting hit by a taxi cab he is in a coma for the short remainder of the film. In his coma, he dreams that he only has a badly fractured leg and that he is back to writing and playing music in a successful music career and that his relationship with Paltrow (Dora) is totally restored and better than ever and that his best friend Pegg (Paul) is also back with his own woman and they are hanging out comfortably having a nice barbecue in great weather (in this dream, it also shows Danny Devito to have written a best selling book about Gary rather than reality which is Devito mostly spending time in his apartment dreaming when he is not at one of his eclectic gigs). We are initially led to believe that he is not in a coma because the barbecue dream sequence is shown before the actual state of affairs.
    I just finished up revisiting this film.
    I like the way they ended it but I could of lived with him dying.
    It's clear that he made the decision to choose Real Life and his Real Life Relationship over his addiction to his Lucid Dream World.
    What isn't exactly clear is if he came out of the coma right before the end scene.
    I didn't run it back to see if he opened his eyes with Paltrow at his side as I was just enjoying the End Credit Music.
    I like an abrupt ending like that.
    And I kind of like leaving it open to interpretation.
    I feel like he is going to wake up at that moment since that is exactly how he wakes up every time throughout the film.
    Another interpretation could be that he lucked into Perpetual Dreaming which is what DeVito was trying to stumble upon or invent his entire life.
    Either way the hypnotic music and visuals bring in a nice flood to the emotions and I really like the jolt you get from the taxi/accident scene.

    An interesting note or feeling about this film is how it is directed.
    The story and characters feel disconnected as if you are in a dream.
    And when we experience the dream sequences they feel more alive or bright.
    Very Clever Story Telling in my opinion.

    DeVito/Mel Quote: Sometimes I wish that you could just hit the sack and never wake up.
    If your favorite song never ended, or your best book never closed, if the emotions mustered from these things would just go on and on, who wouldn't want to stay asleep?
    The guy who discovers that perpetual dream, he's my man.

    Great insights Monet. I don't recall seeing him come out of the coma. If he did, it was implied somehow or it happened as some sort of epilogue after the ending credits (which I didn't wait for). But, as you described, he clearly wanted to restore his real world relationship and Paltrow definitely understood this since she saw him try and run across the busy street to salvage things.

    Yeah, I missed some of the jokes the first go around back in 2007.
    A couple I noticed this viewing.
    Hobbit Joke when they are in the book store.
    Funny since Martin Freeman is Bilbo in 2012.
    Reading the Middle East Crisis Book (Mid-Life Crisis) before bed which was hilarious but I'm sure I noticed that in 07 but forgot about it.
    Or was it Middle East Conflict... same difference... all the jokes still work as he is constantly fighting with his wife/life.
    I'm not sure if they made an "Open Your Eyes" joke/reference but I feel like they did or they should have, giving a nod to Vanilla Sky.
    I did notice they certainly seemed to be referencing Vanilla Sky in the Dreams when they would intertwine Paltrow's voice over Cruz's.
    Just like they did in Vanilla Sky with Cameron Diaz and Cruz.
    You noticed that it was a Dark Comedy more so than I did but I see it now.
    The movie sort of disguises itself as a Drama but it seems more clear now that they are goofing and making fun of many things.
    Heck, I read somewhere today that they are spoofing on several Dream Type movies.
    I guess the biggest joke is that all you have to do to direct or get a movie in Hollywood is have a Famous A-List Sister.
    I probably missed many of the subtle jokes they were making.
    Danny DeVito sure did have a lot of jobs!

    A cult classic with all those subtle moving parts for sure. Great points. I would like to recommend the movie The Little Things (2021) if you haven't seen it. I would categorize it as a Mystery Drama.

    He wanted that swan to sing, but instead it laid a stillborn egg.

    What was he thinking, trying to pull his $1.5M jackpot claim off?

    As if...

    He posts at GF and I wouldn't be surprised if he returns here, most especially if KJ were to ignore him at GT: KJ is his primary target, but then Rob seems to be somewhat misanthropic.

    There's not much more to say. I took a check for $1mil and $500k+ in cash. I FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY gave the person I worked with a $20,000 tip. I asked my son to take the pictures of the screen, which he took literally. But I didn't care, as I was busy with all the paperwork and verifications etc. And all the chatter with the suits. I was politely asked not to return, which was a moot point anyway. My job and playing career were done.

    Now if anyone wants to make their usual stupid assertions because they don't like it or they can't live with it, then you have that right....and without me to insult you afterwards. BUT KNOW THIS: I AM ALL SMILES GOING OUT LIKE THIS!!!

    Singer.....OUT!
    Ron, you should take some of the $1.5M bank roll from your super big win (congrats again BTW - I hope you and your family are enjoying some of the proceeds) and go for the gusto at $10000 a spin 10-hand $100 denom UX. Even Cerveza Fria might be slightly reluctant to play at $10000 a spin for more than an hour a day. A natural royal dealt (and held) with all hands at 12x will pay you $48M.

    Don't think that guy won't fuck your wife. Rob Singer will do it! Don't trust that man with your wife or children.

    When Rob stole the double up bug claim, he told us that he couldn't provide tax documentation because he had throw away the tax documentation being that it was more than 7 years old. He told Shackleford the same thing in a video interview.

    So guess what. The above picture and claim is last year (2022). Rob should now have documentation from the casino in his hands as required by law and be preparing his taxes for the year in question. How about it Rob?

    How in the hell does weakness even prevail in the first place? If weakness prevails, then it is not weakness.

    The collective strength of the weak, vs. Rob as the Ubermensch.
