  For the Japanese comment from the director, I think a better translation stems from relating the first thought he has right before the final sentence. He&apos;s asking if the world we live in is a dream, and the second sentence is him confirming that the world he made for the Playstation definitively is. So maybe a better translation would be:<br><br>&quot;Is the world we are living in a fleeting dream or an illusion with no foundation? At the very least, the world we built for the Playstation in &quot;The Book of Watermarks&quot; is.&quot;

  Weird box art for a PS1 game but a damn fine cover for a rapper&apos;s first solo album.

  I saw &quot;Prospero&quot;s Books&quot; at a local multiplex in the US. Miramax was concerned enough that people wouldn&apos;t understand the movie that an usher had been assigned to stand outside the theater door, distributing official handouts that explained the premise and characters of The Tempest for audience members to read while waiting for the movie to start. I still have mine.

  Walking around an art gallery is something videogames have been trying to do for a while but they&apos;ve never got the vibes right. This is a good try, though.

  I saw a live performance of The Tempest in which Ariel was played by three women at the same time. It&apos;s probably Shakespeare&apos;s most out-there play.

  I love your face edits for thumbnails, they are always so amusing.
