Threshold Concepts: eXistenz.

Well i'm trying to keep organised this year so thought id do my blog asap while the films still in my brain etc (:
I found the film quite interesting however it does leave you in a bit of a daze. The narrative is chronological which makes it easy to follow. There's alot of scenes that are linked by telling them what they need to do etc. This all makes it easier to follow except when it finishes andit all clicks in you start questioning the whole film.
I think the film is quite interactive as all the way through it is teaching you more and more, until the end when you know everything you need to know and understand the gaming concept.
The game and real life converge blurring what you have learnt as fact and fiction leading you to question all of what you have learnt to be fact and fiction. The film was futuristic and at times a bit gory with the pods being blood and guts and ripped apart, wierd animals being killed and holes being put in your spine, not very good if your squeamish but i found it rather interesting.
