    When I was starting stand-up, I saw the Jake Gyllenhaal movie Source Code and there’s a scene where a stand-up comedian is tasked to make a full subway of strangers laugh with an improvised set before they all explode to death. And I was like. Man I hope I never have to do that

    Small aside, but the computer system that you can occasionally see in the background of the Source Code unit in that movie has a big label on it titled... Quan-Tomb.

Maybe you'll be able to get "Duncan" doughnuts during your commute, just like in the 2011 train film SOURCE CODE! I was so disappointed when the doughnuts turned out to be fictional.

    The film Source Code ends with Jake Gyllenhaal banishing an innocent man's soul into the outer darkness, a void between life and death from which nothing may escape, and stealing his body to bang his hot girlfriend and collect his union-job paycheque; and it's presented as a just reward for service.

    Source Code. It felt like such a refreshing breath of fresh air and something that was instantly rewatchable. Great stuff from David Bowie's son, Duncan Jones. It pairs reasonably well with the similarly themed post-2000 sci-fi adventure Edge of Tomorrow!
