I thought DC was oozing movie magic out it's pores, man. Great sets, costumes, a wonderful pulsating score with an incredible climax, and that gorgeous love theme at the end. I thought the reveal of just where you were was pretty neat, too. But then again, I'm not one of those that had The Sixth Sense figured out after the main titles got done playing. I figured out The Sixth Sense during the restaurant scene, where he sat down without moving the chair... the director of Dark City was not pleased that the studio SUITS made him add the preamble narration at the beginning... but it didn't give away the neat twists and turns along the way... the story reminded me very much of a 1970's novel by a British author named Edmund Cooper... Michael was quite young when he discovered that some of his playmates bled if they cut themselves, and some didn't. For a long time he didn't think about it. Nor did it seem strange to see Zeppelins being attacked by jet fighters above London's force field, or glimpse Queen Victoria walking with Winston Churchill in the Mall. Not at first I was quite surprised to see a whole bunch of his novels re-released by iBooks from 2010 onwards. Never heard of him and I used to read SciFi regularly then. Guess his work didn't ross the pond. In a dark city like moment after looking and not finding it, I found it with the exact same paragraph. The Overman Culture by Edmund Cooper
