I have but thought it sucked. The quality is nothing compared to that of Scanner Darkly and it's meant to be watched on drugs, but on drugs it is boring as fuck. Scanner Darkly was actually pretty good I thought.

I've seen a gazillion references to those two movies on here and the Shroomery. I probably wouldn't have checked them out otherwise. I'm not really crazy about either one but I did like A scanner Darkly fairly well. Too be honest I only watched waking Life Once and don't remember it well.

Waking Life is full of good info, its just presented in an extremely boring style IMO. It's all like monotone dialogue through the whole movie

Yeah I've seen it multiple times, I always discover something new I didn't notice before in it. I also love the music in it

well that's usually the general consensus to pay attention to dialogue during the first view. then afterwards, you notice the other details

Thanks but no. What I meant by behind is watching ones I've already downloaded.

Waking life is decent. Im usually not into gooshy pseudo philosophy (never watch what the bleep do we know) but waking life was slightly more fresh.

It's a brilliant movie, but it takes a few times of watching to truly appreciate it. Like snufkin said, you notice new things you never noticed before.
It's very similar to how we move through dreams.
