message: I have a few problems.. "In a distant future"  I don't think that this is necessarily the case.  To me this film evoked that fantastical industrialism of final fantasy seven.  The battle's and so on, the roles of each player/actor.  Maybe "alternate universe", or something similar, would be more mysterious than "distant future".  Then the next sentance begins "In a kind of.." which sounds repetitive and well..  tired. 
It really is a story peppered with contradictions and therefore quite difficult to eloquently re-tell.  I have trouble putting into words what that movie was about.. but I know it was damn cool.
"Especially in higher levels the spirit of the player may stay inside the game, and the body stays vegetating in hospitals in the real world."  I think more points like these would be good.
Is it ok for me to edit the article a little bit?--Tapsell 03:01, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: You don't need permission as "Be Bold" is one of the credos around here. I'd advise to steer clear of speculation, however as that's a no-no. If the film doesn't specify an alternate universe then we shouldn't say so; similarly the film never really specifies if it takes place in the future, either. Describe what is seen on screen and you'll do fine. Of course if you can provide a cited article or other source in which the writer/director makes comments about what it all means (especially the little girl), please add that as well. 23skidoo 03:41, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  I also think this film is not placed in a fare future. It is more like that people are addicted to a game which became "there reality" and Ash is going back to the real world at the end. -- cu AssetBurned (talk) 21:50, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
