Message: [QUOTE="TechnologicalMF, post: 147220, member: 103637"] [ATTACH type="full" width="288px" size="548x800"]47858[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" width="713px" size="1280x544"]47859[/ATTACH] So one of my favorite movies Dark City (1998) has an imo very direct inspiration on Persona 3 which has surprisingly to my knowledge only been brought up on 2 GameFAQs posts. I won't go into it too much as Dark City just has some of my favorite premises and plots ever, doing a lot of things Matrix gets praise for way before it, but basically in Dark City there is imagine a group of characters that wait for a countdown on a really old school clock to 12 AM and then time basically stops along with electronics etc. and only that organization (and those who wield the powers as them) can interact with the world. If you've ever played Persona 3, this should ring a bell right away as this is basically the exact concept of the Dark Hour (even the name lol) with how only Persona users can really interact with this period while the rest of the humans turn into coffins. Also, the clocks in general have a very similar aesthetic too.

[/B]Not only does it not have an opening narration that literally spoils a twist in the movie, but it has 10 minutes extra of atmospheric world-building. If you have no way of watching it and have to make do with a theatrical cut, I recommend you mute temporarily and then unmute as soon as the narration stops. I can rewatch the opening to tell you exactly when to unmute as it has been a bit since I watched it [/QUOTE]
