This movie is amazing. I think it's more enjoyable if you watch it assuming everything is real, and not just a dream. I dont think its that farfetched either. After all in the future we see they already have the ability to mess around with memories, so it seems pretty reasonable that he actually was a secret agent who's memory was overwritten.
>>223170449its very dickian that its exactly what it says it is. a memory adventure where he gets the exact chick he picked out and discovers ayys on mars
What do we think about the remake?
>>223170449the practical effects are awesome
>>223170449>>223170762Why does Hollywood think everything has to be a pew pew actuon movie?
>>223170449How did Richter get the actor from the Recall commercials to get to Mars? What was the point of the whole pill ruse if they knew where Quaid was?
If it was all a dream why would there be scenes without him in it and then him not knowing info from those scenes?
>>223170762not even beckinsale and biel could save that shitheap
>>223170762What does give good wife mean?
>>223170854This guy doesnt have expository scenes with secondary characters in his dreams. Pffffttt!!!!!
>>223170762ive tried to watch this numerous times and always fall asleep
>>223170854that was part of his dream
Mmmmm Sweaty Sharon Stone in tight workout gear.

>>223170788i mean i feel like it fits for this movie. the point is that its drastically different from his normal home life
>>223170762It had some cool parts like the robot soldiers. But removing Mars and replacing it with Australia was baffling and unforgivable

>>223170762Not as good as the original but I did enjoy it. Same as the robocop remake.
>>223170449can't be a dream because that would make no sense
>>223170449Ultimate fun movie. You can watch it infinitely and it never gets old. So quotable too."Man I got Five kids to feed!"
>>223170858>not even beckinsale and biel could save thatThey could have done it with a mud fight, but kate wanted more screen time
>>223170762Never seen it, never will see it.
>>223170818>the actor from the Recall commercialsthat was Dr Edgemar, the inventor of the recall memory implant process
>>223175110most people seem to think it is. like they think everything after he goes to recall doesnt really happen, because its just the recall memory/fantasy being played out.
>>223171416literally me when I'm digging for gold and I got a nugget that just won't come loose
>>223174563Good hotels get cheaper after terror attacks. less people too. Best time to go.
>>223170449>I think it's more enjoyable if you watch it assuming everything is real, and not just a dream.Agreed"It was all a DREAM" is peak Gen X nihilism
>>223174612No but i had a dream about oral sex with a girl with 2 heads today. I kept wondering if only one is into it and if the other has to play along.
>>223178839You could make each head cum whether she wants it or not
>>223170449My only complaint about Total Recall is Verhoeven doesn't really add much as far as the Dream vs Reality aspect. There are slight hints here and there, but the movie just plays out and you're left wondering. That could be good or bad I guess. Like, you can't rewatch the movie and find clues.You could assume that pulling out a grape sized object from your nose is unrealistic, but it's a futuristic Verhoeven Sci-Fi. Then there's the bead of sweat on the Rekall employee. Why would he be nervous in a dream? He's also the guy from the commercials iirc.

>>223178945watch it again, Kumar, you'll get it
>>223178974I'm an Indian, who dreamt he was a white man and loved it. But now the dream is over, and the Indian is awake.
>>223178945>You could assume that pulling out a grape sized object from your nose is unrealisticNo you can actually do this
>>223170449Total Recall is the best Sci Fi movie ever made. Also, it perfectly bridged the gap between 80s Sci Fi and 90s Sci Fi.
>>223177617Don't watch it. It's so fucking bad
>>223170677he dreamt of her before he even went to mars.in your plebbit version, here's the plot:>construction worker wakes up>goes to work>bored so goes to a video rental shop>has his mind fried and winds up lobotomised.the end
>>223170762Why is everything dark af. Sci-fi is new medieval.
>>223178781Maybe if the movie didn't star Schwarzenegger it would seem more ambiguous as to if he was just a construction worker dreaming in a bed, but I just don't really buy him as an average person so it's easy to accept he's not delusional
>>223179774>he dreamt of her before he even went to mars.yeah it's almost as he instructed lab girl to make her, his dream girl, who is a total opposite of his wife
Two Weeks
>>223170449The “dream or reality” thing is really up to each viewer I think, like most art. What I hate are faggots that are determined to say one is the real interpretation or whatever.I think it was a dream. Arnold’s Mars rebel gf is shown on the screen at the Total Recall clinic. There’s a couple other things like that too. But hey, it’s a movie and maybe they were cutting corners or made mistakes and it’s not a dream and people read into stuff too much.Either way it’s fucking 10/10 kino.
>>223170449>I think it's more enjoyable if you watch it assuming everything is real, and not just a dreamBecause it was. The film has no meaning otherwise. It's also Schwarzenegger's best film.
>>223179800way to ignore the synopsis of the reality of your boring dreck unimaginative version, dweeb
>>223179702I think you're right. it's in my top 3 films.i wanted to see it at the cinemas when I was a child, remember seeing the posters outside a cinema.
This movie plot confuses me. So he was an agent with artificial persona and bad guys expected him to go to dream corp eventually? then why do they attack him later and it looks like they really want to get/kill him every time and not just pretend to chase? and if he is a bad guy himself how does he have a real past on Mars with dark haired girl who acts like she knows him so well?
>>223179890it'll all be revealed in the sequel starring tom holland, coming out next year.>Total R3kall: The Unbecoming
>>223179890I'd have to rewatch it because I don't remember anything about the earth parts of that movie other than him pulling the thing out through his nose
just realized this movie was predictive programming for arnold’s own life where he cheated on his bitchy wife with the mexican housekeeper
>>223179960Arnold's marriage was political, he'd never become a governor without it. USA politics is a game of thrones with guns.
>>223179945he meets riktor in a bar on earth, riktor recognises him and starts chasing him. lots of bad guys fight him and then his wife tells him he was mind wiped. so he is disillusioned and rides the train, sees and advert for rekall and figures they can unlock his memory so he goes and they do but it is interrupted so they don't finish and riktor chases him again and he works out they must be tracking him so he buys a spy kit off a guy and removed the nose plug.then he flies to mars and slowly his memories come back
>>223179890>and if he is a bad guy himself how does he have a real past on Mars with dark haired girl who acts like she knows him so well?Hauser was a spy working with Cohagen to take down the Mars rebels. He bedded Mileena to get close to the movement.>then why do they attack him later and it looks like they really want to get/kill him every time and not just pretend to chase?Michael Ironside's character was not aware of the ruse, hence Cohagen ordering him to take Hauser / Quaid alive. Quaid wasn't supposed to go to Total Rekall.
Things hardly ever fuck up around herehttps://youtu.be/6f7v1xi7bCc?is=nlK82-VSTGAZpPkA
>>223179986wonder what kind of girl he might have married if he hadn't wanted to be with her.like anons in the past said, maybe an olympic athlete to produce supersoldiers.
>>223179988>he meets riktor in a bar on earth, riktor recognises him and starts chasing himlol wut the first time we meet Riktor is when he's coming up to take Quaid away after Lorie called Riktor.
>>223180016Arnold's marriage to Maria Shriver was awesome and I wish he had gotten away with banging the maid without that destroying it. Glad he wasn't the prez though
>>223180034you're thinking of the theatrical cut. directors cut is about 50 minutes longer and has a cameo in it by petter weller as the bar keep where he meets riktor>drink up fellaswas cool
>>223179986no? it's lobbyists and blackmail. there's not even any aristocracy in the us, it's all worthless peasants and kikes that think they're nobility.
>>223180058Wtf there's a director's cut? Thanks.
>>223180158you're welcome. it's sometimes called the unreal version, released only on laser disc.
>>223170762We don't think about that shit at all
>>223178781That shit concept existed way before their parents were even born, faggot
in the original short story, the recall process unlocks memories that had previously been hidden because Quaid was an agent who had undergone memory wipe after assassinating someone.The short story is also completely different.
>>223180195yeah that's bs
>>223179988Same anon, checking your double dubs. I haven't dl'd the dc yet but that sounds really lame thinking it over that that's what spurs him on to Rekall. The theatrical cut of him subconsciously knowing there's more for him than his current life speaks to the heart of every man (and maybe woman) who wants to be more than they are.
>>223180628there's also an extra scene on mars where he dances at a disco when he first goes to a club that bennie suggests. then he realises it's the wrong one when he goes back to his hotel room.for some reason it was about 5 minutes long of him just enjoying himself at the disco, I guess that's why they cut it.someone also has a weird pet dog but a mutant one with a head on each end of its body, but despite the effect being good, they linger on it for too long and it seems out of place.one more scene shows him on the rocket going to mars and him walking round the ship, looking in through a gym window where some women are exercising, and him hanging out in the cafe there. you see cuato in the background staring at him, but quaid doesn't know who he is yet. it's sort of a prelude to when you meet him earlier and you realise cuato was the one unlocking quaids mind bit by bit throughout the film until he has total recall.

>>223175984One was supposed to be sexy & sultry and one was supposed to be athletic and practical. The Schwarz movie accomplished this, but I couldn't tell you which was which in the Farrell one; they both look exactly the same.
