I used to like Cameron Crowe until I saw that movie.

You guys are nuts! Vanilla Sky is genuis! One of Tom Cruise's best ever! The soundtrack was fantastic, the story was amazing, how could you not like it? The whole time your watching you have this weird feeling that you aren't sure of- any film that can make you feel something is good. For those that didn't get it- here is the deal:
Tom Cruise's character is a rich playboy type who meets the Penelope Cruz character and falls in love with her immediately. He then gets in a horrible car accident that disfigures his face. Well, obviously since he has been in the hospital and so forth he loses Penelope Cruz(since they did only meet once its not like they were going out)- then he meets her again with his face all fucked up and she weirds out. That is where he passes out on the street. Now, after this he goes on with his life for a bit before meeting up with the Lucid Dream people although the movie doesn't show it right away. Still with me people? What the lucid dream company does is basically put your brain on life support until sometime in the future when you could possibly be revived from death(body death anyway). So...he kills himself with pills and I assume rushed to the Lucid Dream people who put him on the Lucid Dream program which was him being all in love with Penelope and being happy. Its a dream that you can make up before you die and not be aware of while you are "dreaming". You would think its real. Similiar to the Matrix concept. In reality he never really hooks up with Penelope or anything to the effect. He dies a miserable wreck with a fucked up face. In his dream he is king. Get it? How can that be boring to you? I guess if you are more into action movies you might not get movies where you have to use your brain. I guarantee this will be a reality before too long. You'll be able to choose the lucid dream as an option when you die. Sort of like cryogenics.
