Living with Toons

There is one very nice dream that I've had a few times. It consisted of myself, and all of the characters that I have created. Ronny Rabbit, Bobby Squirrel, Galileo the Evil Scientist Bat, Harry Rabbit, Snail, The Nut Brothers etc. This dream is most likely inspired by one of my favorite movies: "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?". This is a movie where cartoon characters (called "Toons") coincide with humans in everyday life. This is the gist of my dream. I'm in any situation in my everyday life (at school, at home, etc,), but my characters are following me around and talking to me like my friends. The villian characters are acting like villians, the hero characters are acting like heroes, and the neutral characters are, well, neutral. Every now and then, other characters appear from other shows that I watch, and talk to me and my characters like they are just as part of the group as my characters. This dream helps me see just how my characters walk and talk and react to certain stimuli. I have a feeling that this has been a lucid dream, since my brain probably couldn't come up with something this complex, without the logical side of my brain playing a part.

  1. I remember seeing Roger Rabbit in the theatre when it came out! It seems like such a long time ago...I was probably in high school. Sounds like you have very vivid and interesting dreams and that they help you in your work.
