Paprika

[Ryllharu]

Just the basic premise of it and what other films the director has done.

He directed Paranoia Agent, Millennium Actress, and Perfect Blue, the latter being proof enough that Paprika will be an amazing psychothriller. I'm a huge fan of Perfect Blue, and though I was a little disappointed in the story of Millennium Actress, I loved its presentations.

From the three trailers I've seen, take Millennium Actress's seemless transitions and combine them with the thriller aspects and writing of Perfect Blue, and you've got Paprika.

From ANN:
In the near future, a revolutionary new psychotherapy treatment called PT has been invented. Through a device called the "DC Mini" it is able to act as a "dream detective" to enter into people's dreams and explore their unconscious thoughts. Before the government can pass a bill authorizing the use of such advanced psychiatric technology, one of the prototypes is stolen, sending the research facility into an uproar. In the wrong hands, the potential misuse of the device could be devastating, allowing the user to completely annihilate a dreamer's personality while they are asleep. Renowned scientist, Dr. Atsuko Chiba (played by Megumi Hayashibara), enters the dream world under her exotic alter-ego, code name "PAPRIKA," in an attempt to discover who is behind the plot to undermine the new invention.

I've been looking forward to it for months.

The plot certainly sounds more interesting than in the live action movie some years ago (The Cell was the name if memory serves. Never liked it much). Well, even though I've Perfect Blue on DVD, I can't say I'm a huge fan of it, as I'm not generally speaking a huge fan of any psychopath stuff. However, this doesn't sound exactly like that.

This bell pepper got a screener leaked, and subsequently released:

Paprika screener - jpn audio, eng subs

I haven't checked it out myself, but if somebody's interested, there it is. I'll most likely wait for a proper release, unless somebody watches this and reports the quality isn't bad and there isn't a big red cross over the picture...

I think I'll wait for the DVDrip myself too. I think it's always worth the wait for movies as the art quality is important in anime movies for me.

Just fell in love with the trailer for the movie, will definitely have to keep an eye out for an dvdr release
