Movie Discussion: Primer
I Netflixed this movie about 6 months ago. Watched it once, thought it was meh; it's one of those time travel movies that you have to go online and read a bunch of threads in order to "get it" (like Donnie Darko etc.) I TiVo'ed it the other night when it was on though to torture my girlfriend with it, and wound up watching it again. I really enjoyed it the second time around, especially knowing the budget and things to look for.
Really excellent movie for a first time writer/director (who also stars in it), but he has nothing in the works. Probably a one hit wonder, seems like the type of guy who had this movie in mind all throughout college (I read he was some sort of physicist major) and now has no fresh ideas. Anyone seen it?
