Here is a lazy overview of two dreams that I barely recorded part of:
Dream 1
In this dream I watched a 1980s action martial arts movie with my brother GC, and in this movie one of the male characters had a special move called The (something that I can not remember) Shuffle.
After the movie my brother GC and I went outside during the day to have a sparring match.
All that I can remember of this dream is that it took place inside a Walmart or a Walmart-like store, and I was in a competition with some other people including my female coworker JB.
During the competition there were a few times that I got to briefly see and say something to JB, I was really excited/energized at/by each chance to briefly talk with her (like someone you have not seen in a while who you really wanted to talk to), and she was the only person I knew in the competition.
“Total Recall” is an action thriller about reality and memory, inspired anew by the famous short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick.
Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories.
For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid, even though he’s got a beautiful wife who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs.
But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man.
Finding himself on the run from the police – controlled by Chancellor Cohaagen, the leader of the free world – Quaid teams up with a rebel fighter to find the head of the underground resistance and stop Cohaagen.
The line between fantasy and reality gets blurred and the fate of his world hangs in the balance as Quaid discovers his true identity, his true love, and his true fate. (Columbia Pictures)
My Thoughts
I think that I saw this movie in a movie theater back when it came out in 2012, and maybe my brother GC and/or one or more of my brothers watched it with me.
I have not seen the original Total Recall yet unfortunately, and so I had nothing to compare this movie to.
Critics did not like it, but I did not hate it and I thought that this movie was okay.
Colin Farrell did an okay job, I liked Kate Beckinsale’s performance and her character, and this movie had a lot of action.
