An international co-production between Canada, the United Kingdom, and France, it also stars Jude Law, Ian Holm, Don McKellar, Callum Keith Rennie, Sarah Polley, Christopher Eccleston, Willem Dafoe, and Robert A. Silverman.
Existenz and Avalon(2001), My two favorite millennial badass gamer chick cyberpunk virtualware flicks. Probably watched them each a dozen times back in the day.
And I don’t even remember Willem Dafoe， looks like I got myself a good excuse to watch them again.
I mean I only need to watch this one for Willem Dafoe, but, while I’m at it, you know.
Avalon, ehhh. Thanks for the tip!
…avalon, like the live-action film by the director of ghost in the shell?..
…i remember passing it over the shelves of blockbuster for several years, but never watched it…
Boy do I have no idea, haha. I watched that before I even considered the film crew behind the movies.
Guess I need to check out Avalon. Never even heard of it until now, but being mentioned in the same regard as Existenz is enough to get me interested :)
