I had a dream that I was fighting Darth Vader in a videogame running on the KOTOR engine. I knew the Emperor was in the next room, as the final boss. I wish that was real.

I had a lot of dreams last night/this morning.
The first one had a lot of dreams within dreams. In the dream's "real life", a hurricane was approaching Florida. I was visiting a vacation cottage in Florida. By the time I heard about the hurricane it was too late to evacuate, so I decide to wait inside the house and ride it out. However, I think this was just a dream inside the first dream. That being the case, when the hurricane actually hit, I was able to think, "Let's see if I would have survived that..." and the dream within a dream ended. The house was completely flattened, so I suppose I would have been killed. However, that still might have been some metadream, because later when I was only in one layer of dream, the house was still standing. Then I had at least two other unrelated dreams. In one, I (or at least the main character of the dream; I don't know if it was really me) was using the time machine from Back to the Future to deal with the Terminator. In the other, my mother had a ridiculously sprawling mansion, filled with servants, in the middle of square miles of woods (which looked like some of the larger parks around here, which may have been where my brain got the image). It was raining, and somehow some of the plants near the house started to catch on fire. The dream itself didn't offer an explanation for this, but my character within the dream assumed it must have been started by lightning. I tried to put some of the smaller fires out, because it seemed like a fire there could easily spread to destroy everything for miles, but no one else seemed concerned. Some even commented that the fire was "pretty". Before the dream was over, I visited my brother's room in the new house. It didn't look anything like his real room. He also was dressed in a camouflage uniform. "Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood." -Orwell |

Last night I dreamt that a friend of mine from my childhood kept trying to wake me up and bugging me to watch a parade that was going to come down my street. I just wanted to stay in bed, but she just kept bothering me. So I finally caved in and got out of bed, and when the parade came, it was just a goat pulling a small wagon full of hay.
I was like, WTF? You woke me up for THAT? And then the dream ended and I woke up for real. |

Some times my dreams are so literal.
I'd been reading a college literature book, but the front cover was torn off through excessive use, and it lost a couple of pages at the beginning (no stories, but some stuff on criticism). So, I looked at Amazon.com to see if they had that book available, or if they had different editions that might have different stories. That was in real life. In a dream two nights ago, I managed to get a different edition of that book. It was more like a junior high literature text in look (meaning, twice as tall, but half as thick), and had a sort of lime green cover. The edition was after the original editor died (I believe he's dead in real life), so all the original chapters on the theory of literature was gone (which annoyed me), but it had all new stories and poems and what not. Anyway, that dream was obviously based on a detail from my real life, which is often the case. I think I've been dreaming so much about my grandparents lately (or their old house) because my grandmother is getting older and I'm worried about her health. Last night, however, I had a dream whose origin is a mystery to me. I think that was a metadream, where the events in the dream were supposed to be some episode of The Outer Limits, despite that the dream never showed, say, me watching it. Anyway, the details are getting hazy, but it was about Orson Wells being approached by an older man to work on a movie. Wells wasn't terribly interested in the project for its own sake, but he needed money for a project he was interested in. The project he was interested in wasn't necessarily a movie, but some arcane studies that would give him greater understanding of the universe. He complained that if he spent his whole life trying to earn money for that project, that he'd never be able to actually use the money to work on it, and further complained that Isaac Newton was able to work on his studies without worry of funding. Then Orson Wells put on some strange glasses that were true black, and in the center of them swirled a galaxy. Supposedly those glasses were either symbolic of being in some brotherhood that performed those arcane studies, or the glasses were helpful with them. After his complaint, the older guy who was paying Orson Wells to make the movie took out his own black hole glasses, put them on, and walked away. The implication was either that he belonged to the same brotherhood but was higher rank, unbeknownst to Wells; or at least was also interested in arcane studies and the entire reason he hired Wells was some artistic idea he had could be finished in some form, while not detracting from his own time for arcane studies.

Here's a question...Has anyone ever had a dream that came true?
I'm almost sure I have but I can't remember any specific incidents, except maybe one time I dreamt I was watching a movie I hadn't seen for years and then the next day I'm channel-surfing and happen to come to a station that's showing it. |

I had a dream one night that I was watching The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and they did a sketch with Edd Hall and Bob Vila.
The very next night I'm watching the show and that's exactly what happens - they do a sketch with Edd Hall and Bob Vila. Very bizarre coincidence, I guess, since I didn't hear anything about the episode before I watched it.

My dream last night was that some people I know went to Detroit for some reason, perhaps to see a concert. If it was a concert, the building it was held in was odd: It was a skyscraper. And to park, we had to fly our car up to the top of the building, and hang it from a hook that would clasp around the hole in the door where the window was.
That wasn't all. For some reason, it wasn't enough to park our car; we then had to climb out and, from thousands of feet up, transfer over and climb into another car that was likewise hanging. The added weight caused the second car's door frame to begin to bend. Also, one of us was somewhat invalid and unable to make the transfer. We had to leave that person in the original car until we were done. "Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood." -Orwell |

Quote: Funny. My dad said almost the same exact thing. It might seem like a really strange coincidence, but there might actually be some logical reasons for it. For one thing, I'm pretty sure that was around the same time I saw an episode of Home Improvement where Tim purposefully loses a race to Bob Vila so as not to ruin a hot rod he had been working on restoring for some time. Tim says something like, "Spare the rod, the heck with Bob", which I thought was hilarious for some reason. So I may have had that on my mind. And I was also watching the Tonight Show on a daily basis back then, so I would've be familiar with Edd Hall. And since they were always doing sketches with unannounced walk-on guests, it was only a matter of time before the Bob Vila sketch showed up. More like a case of really good timing than anything related to psychic powers or molar fillings. And even if it was possible, the filling explanation wouldn't make sense, because unless I'm mistaken, the Tonight Show episodes are filmed in the afternoon before they air later on in the same night. I had the dream before the episode was filmed. |

This is just getting bizarre. I had a dream I was climbing a large mountain. It seemed like it was either Mt. Everest or Mt. Fuji, but I'm not sure which. When I got to the top, it was like a desert instead of snowcapped and there, of all things, was the torch of the Statue of Liberty poking up out of the sand.
WTF??? I don't whether this means I should visit the Statue of Liberty sometime or stay away from it. |

Maybe your subconscious is trying to tell you to see Planet of the Apes.
I had a really weird one last night. A two-parter. I have no idea where this dream was taking place, but I dreamt that there was this guy named "Brian" who was famous for throwing parties. This character did not appear to be based on anyone I actually know, he was more like Ferris Bueller. Anyway, I went to one of his parties and someone asked me if I was having fun, and I replied, "Well, the problem with Brian's parties is that once you've been to one, you've been to them all", so I guess the dream implied that I'd been to his parties before. (As for what was actually going on at the party, it seemed there was a lot of people dancing, balloons being thrown around, and lots of cake to eat. That's all I really remember. I don't think I even actually saw "Brian" in the dream.) I was about to leave when I suddenly bumped into my old art teacher from high school. He was carrying a folder containing some of his work and I wanted to look through it, but he wouldn't let me. Someone who was dancing bumped into him and he dropped the folder. A bunch of papers spilled out and amongst them were some of my old Image Arcane comics. They were complete, before I had cut them up, completely inked and colored in, and kept in extremely good condition. (In reality, this wouldn't make sense. I never actually brought any of my comics to school or college. I only worked on conceptual art.) I looked through the rest of his stuff and it also turned out that he had my Might & Magic maps (which also makes no sense in reality, since they're sitting right behind my chair at this very moment.) I didn't question the reality of any of this, though, I just asked if I could have them back, but he refused. I then asked if I could at least make copies of them for myself, but he refused that, too. (What's weird is that he communicated everything without actually talking.) I contemplated just taking my comics and maps and running off with them, but decided that wouldn't be the right thing to do, so I gave them back to him. At that point, I woke from the dream. I end up falling back asleep and I start dreaming that I'm putting all my game systems into a big closet (again, I have no idea where this dream is taking place, as the closet, nor the room it was in, did not look like anything from our apartment or my home back in NJ.) The thought occurred to me that it was very odd that he wouldn't at least allow me to make copies of my comics and maps. I deduced that he might be telling people that he actually drew them himself. So I went back to the party and looked for him. I didn't find him anywhere, but the folder with the stuff in it was still lying on top of a washing machine. I picked it up and looked through it and, sure enough, his name had been scrawled in the corner of every page of comics and Might & Magic map. I took them from his folder and was about to leave when someone from the party asked me, "So, you've got them back now?" My reply was, "Yes, but in dream only, since I know this isn't real", and then I woke up.

Re: dream | |||||

I had a dream this morning that I was staying in a place where there were threats of industrial espionage and sabotage. We woke up one day, and the car (which was somehow supposed to be special) in our driveway was totally burnt out.
Somehow I had the feeling the arsonist would strike again, maybe because he so brazenly struck under everyone's noses. So, I simply stayed away at night, and every time a person would walk past (and it just so happened the sidewalk in front of our house was as busy as my old neighborhood would have been on Halloween when I was a child), I'd raise my head to look out the corner of a window. It occured to me that maybe I should just keep my head at that level, even if it was always exposed, because the human eye is especially good at detecting movement. We had another car left in our driveway, which was not as special as the original, but which we nevertheless felt could serve as bait. Several days later, in broad daylight, the arsonist appeared. He was a little humanoid smaller than the last joint of my pinky finger. He was accompanied by a spider of about the same size, and an insect like creature that looked like some sort of ancient mask for rituals, covered with horns. I don't know about the spider, but the horned creature was intelligent and could communicate (either vocally or telepathically) in English. The only advantage the little guy had was how small he was, so once I saw him I easily apprehended him. However, the horned insect had an agonizingly painful bite. I don't think the dream came to a real conclusion, but at the end I was trying to figure out how to keep them all trapped until I could do something with them. I tried simply putting them in a garbage bag, but it was too big and they could get lost in it, plus the one I tried already had a rip in it which was many times bigger than what they'd need to get out. I should have tried a sandwich bag. "Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood." -Orwell |

I think I've been reading too much of this topic. I also had a dream that involved the Statue of Liberty. I dreamt that, for some reason, they were moving it here to Northridge, CA, and I was on a panel of people trying to figure out how best to do it.
Finally someone asked why we even needed to move the Statue of Liberty and we turned on the TV and the news showed us that a really big volcano had popped up out of the Atlantic Ocean, just off the coast of New York. That's where the dream ended. O_o |

I've had dreams about a big volcano suddenly appearing somewhere, like in the middle of the football field that was down the street from my house in NJ, but I haven't had one in a long time.
I did, however, have another really weird coincidence dream last night. I dreamt that I bought a full season of The Muppets show on DVD and was watching it (I probably had this dream because I had earlier told Crawl that I wished they had released a full season on DVD instead of just a few episodes.) This morning, after I woke up and checked my usual stops on the internet, I went to imdb.com, and I don't even know why because I don't regularly visit it and usually not in the morning. And right there on the front page was the announcement that the first season of Muppets was out on DVD. (And I had heard nothing about this beforehand.)

well... i recently had a dream where i cracked open this guy's glass skulll and stole his brain. then a copper passed by and i managed to disguise his cracked up head as a badass nigga and the copper felll for it.
then i transplanted the brain to a robot, and we both escaped from an alien base which looked a hell lot like something cheap from "V: The Final Battle". the final melo-dramatic scene had the human brain robo dying and begging for love. so i plucked off a head from a neighbouring dying robot and both heads kissed while i cringed. and the human brain turned into mush with indian houseflies and all. the dream finally died. ![]() James Joyce once said, "There is no heresy or no philosophy which is so abhorrent to the church as a human being."
