Paycheck

"Paycheck," is the most recent of the PKD stories to become a movie, and "A Scanner Darkly," is the next.

The premise of "Paycheck" is that a man wakes up, after two years agreeing to work for a company, with his memory of the previous two years wiped. In leiu of his $50K paycheck, he is given a bag with several, seemingly worthless items in it. In less than an hour, two of those objects pretty much save his a$$, and he's left wondering about the others, and he's got an idea of what he worked on during those two years. Very interesting.

Maybe I'll have a Philip K. Dick movie marathon this weekend...

That Matt Damon is just dreamy.

Oh, wait. It was the "other one" of them.
