treewojima 11/09/19 11:34:50 AM #6:	BTW, it finally clicked that ~~when he freaks out at Rekall, it's because they undid his "memory cap" and he snapped back into his original identity as Hauser, which explains his whole "I'm not Quaid... you blew my cover!" moment~~ I got the rest of the movie and the themes just fine, but that little bit slipped by me until now. I guess they were closer to the PKD style of story than I thought lol Yeah, yeah, I know, they explained it pretty obviously right after that, but his quotes never really took hold until now <cite>treewojima posted [p:929888454] in the origin...
