I almost died from laughter at the 'Have you been here before' guy who said he was dead and when asked how he replied "got killed". I'm still on the floor, send help.
If hypnosis can give us a first hand account of historical events, why are there still archeologists? All that digging for small objects seems like a big waste of time and effort, when they could just relax on a couch while a silk-smooth voice asks them leading questions about past lives. I bet if they tried that on me, they would realize that I had once been a warrior of Rohan, riding just behind king Theoden to break the siege of Minas Tirith.
That vaguely Scottish ex-warrior has to be the greatest storyteller who ever allegedly lived! Not a very bright soldier, though. No clue who he's fighting, where he is or even what century he's in. Small wonder he was killed.
It worries me that I like the idea of a show in which Barry Shitpeas is actually sick on a widow. It could be an investigative reality show in which Barry travels round the country excreting, vomiting and pissing on members of the public and then talks to psychologists about the significance such acts have on society and then somehow connects it all to current events. Whack in some shots of Barry looking reflective with a bit of Coldplay on top and you can count me in.
especially since if it's around the first Jacobite uprising, like it sounds, pretty sure Clan Campbell was mostly fighting AGAINST the Jacobites. I mean, if he had a past life it would at least be a historically accurate one, no? or was this past life part of a whole freaking past universe?
Not that I'm defending this "past life regression" nonsense, but that's not necessarily the craziest mindset for a peasant soldier to have. If you're an illiterate subsistence farmer, you don't really care what the year or political situation is. You care whether it's time to plant or harvest, and how you can survive the latest war your landlord's got involved in without being killed, crippled, or done for desertion. Modern levels of information access are really revolutionary.
