Bad dreams

[Cerebus]

I tend to forget most of my Dreams, and even those I remember disappear from my mind after a while.

The only one remember which was kinda bad was when I ended up being shot, crawled on the floor while the guy went and killed whoever else I was with in my Dream and got shot again, when he noticed I was alive. I think I died in this Dream.

I probably had worst Dreams than this, but I forgot them all.

One thing I really hate...
Dreaming about how life had become better for me in many ways only to wake up and find out that all this was fake.
The Dream World is a terrible place of false hope... even Nightmares are better in a way, because at least, you are glad you woke up from them.

I also never had a lucid Dream...

Dreaming about how life had become better for me in many ways only to wake up and find out that all this was fake.

Oh man, I hate that.

I've had a few lucid dreams. Supposedly you can increase the likelihood that you'll have them by constantly asking yourself "Am I dreaming?" even if you know you aren't. Eventually it will become second nature, and you'll catch on to the fact that things just don't seem right.

If you lucid dream, there's a strong chance you'll wake up soon after. You have to consciously distract yourself constantly, even if it means flapping your arms like an idiot. It's a dream, I promise no one can see you.

So, Morgan Freeman is a cop working late when people are starting to act weird. They are all standing around and staring at stuff, like in the middle of the street. Some guy drives right into a crowd of these people and Freeman gets out to arrest him. But when he gets up to them the guy who ran over the others stands up with a lot of slime in his face. Turns it this part was taken from that movie "The Invasion" with Nicole Kidman. Freeman realized that there's some sort of infection going on and starts running away from the infected people. But it goes rather smoothly, they just stand around and stare at him.
He runs along and searches for a car, and people are now starting to follow him, but they are all walking even though he's running. Like if they know that he won't find a useful car.
Then all of a sudden some other guy crashes his car into the street. Freeman runs over to that one and pulls out the driver GTA style.
The moment he gets into the car all the infected people are jumping on top of it. So he just gases and heads down the street. Turn out he did not want to kill anyone since they'll probably be returned to normal later.
 So he's speeding down the streets in a dark (I suppose) New york as he passes a bus stop. There's a guy there waiting for the bus, and a lot of infected people following Freeman. For some reason, Freeman decides to turn around and pick the guy up. So they drive down the street talking about having to bail and get to some sanctuary. The guy slowly transform into John Kusack btw, no clue why. Then all of a sudden this girl tries to cross the street, so Freeman stands on his breaks stopping the car inches from her, she looks terrified and yell at them for driving too fast. She looks terrified as the two of them get out of the car, thinking that she'll be mugged or something. Then she starts apologizing when she realizes that Freeman is wearing a cop uniform and even (for some reason) offering to do personal favours to avoid getting a ticket. Freeman explains that there's an infection going on and that she is not safe, she gets into the back seat and they drive on.

The three of them drive down lane after lane (kinda dull) when the girl suddenly says that now when she finally got a ride she can get that Crispy bacon and cheese whopper burger at Burger king that she's been yearning for all night. Kusack says no, but Freeman agrees, he wants something for the road.
They park their car just in front of the entrance of burger king and Kusack manages to talk the girl into taking another burger that takes less time to prepare. They all get their burgers and head back out to the car when they realize that there are infected people standing in a semi-circle around the entrance of burger king staring at them. There even is a military person there with a gun, but he can't aim the guy. He just shoots into the ground.
They jump into the car and drives off when the girl says that there's another person in the back. Freeman stops the car when hearing that and tries to get out, but the car is getting filled with some gas, and the other girl don't seem to be affected.

Morgan Freeman and John Kusack wakes up in what seems to be a planetary. They look around and finds Balthier from FFXII, he's rambling about the "Gems of the desert winds" and looking at the telescopes. Morgan Freeman tries to talk to him but he's a rambling fool who does one-liners and crap. John Kusack wakes up the girl (the other one is missing) and he notices a military clad person on the opposite side of him. Suddenly there are all these roman pillars everywhere and they are in a round room, with spiral staircases down to the lower floor. The military on the other side is standing at a control panel and the girl sees all these soldiers passing him and heading down the staircase. John Kusack manages to grab the first soldier and steals his gun. But when he fires it, there is no recoil and no sound, it seems like it's shooting air. But tosses it at the second soldier and does a body slam right into the formation of soldiers moving upwards. They all stumble down the stairs and only one soldier remains at the bottom. He got his gun aimed at Kusack but Freeman fly kicks the gun out of his hand.
Kusack then performs a haymaker at the soldier's head. But the soldier gets up, so Freeman punches him right at the nose, but he gets up again. So Kusack kicks him in the face. Now he's down.

The room is suddenly returned to be a planetary when Kusack and Freeman walks up the other staircase to see the military at the control panel. He's already dead and Balthier is standing on top of him saying nonsense about leading men.
The girl takes of the helms of the soldiers downstairs and realizes that they are all Morgan Freeman, and thinks that their Morgan Freeman is some sort of alien / clone / cyborg as well and grabs a gun.
Kusack turns on the control panel and a screen shows that Lunar Tear scene from FFVIII. Balthier gets all excited and says that the lunar tear is the gem of the desert winds and he needs to catch it when it reaches earth.
Then the girl shoots Morgan Freeman and Balthier shoots her, and to answer that Kusack shoots Balthier. They are all bleeding and apologizing for shooting each other. Then Morgan Freeman realizes that Kusack wasn't shot so he shoots him. All their blood is gathering at one point and it forms a gemstome. The gem of the desert winds.
Balthier acts all arrogant and talks about how he knew it would come to this and grabs the gemstone. Then they exit the planetary and cures everyone by placing the gemstone at the top of an SUV and driving around in town.

The end when I finally woke up.

Wow, that actually sound like it could be a semi-interesting movie. I wish my dreams were as awesome.

[SaiKar]

Yeah, I was sold at "Morgan Freeman."

I have very similar nightmares, sai. Where I know its a dream, but whatever is scaring me is still frightening as hell. And then the typical things like, feeling glued to your spot while something is chasing, not being able to scream, narrowly escaping death, those things still happen. They're almost made more real by being sort of lucid.

Not really a bad dream, but I remember this from a recent one:

Zombie apocalypse has started. Myself, a friend, and three or four other people ran to this hospital (I seem to recall it being quite homely with an orange tint on everything.) We ran up about twelve stories informing people of the imminent zombies and went to the roof. With the hospital, we had plenty of supplies and food, so the first night came.

During the night, my friend got the bright to take our roof Hummer. Because we had a Hummer on the room for some reason. So he drove it off the roof, landed perfectly on a road, and went off to get fast food. Out of everything we could've thought right there, we chose "wtf he took our car!"

So I slid down the side of the building in who knows what fashion. I landed and walked over to phone booth on the side of a small dirt road that passed by the hospital and called him. He said he was on his way back. I hung up, and the next thing I know, the Hummer comes sliding down the road. On its side. On fire. Ok, that part sucked.

So I started walking back to the hospital, and the people on the roof apparently forgot that I was down there. And suddenly had assault rifles. They shot at me (originally, I couldn't get a good estimate of how tall the hospital was for the first paragraph, until I thought back to this part and counted the floors from that memory,) and I dove for cover behind the corner of a small wing of the hospital. I shouted at them they it was me and that they were morons. I think their reply was "Oh."

The next that happened was that I turned around and suddenly my friend who took the Hummer was walking up to me. Then he turned into an old lady. Who was also a zombie. I remember being completely exhausting and not having enough strength to run away. I started trying to back away, and she reached forwards. Then I died. I'm not quite sure how. If I had to guess, I'd say my douche baggy team on the roof saw the old lady, went "ZOMBIE", started firing again, believing that assault rifles are accurate shots from twelve stories high, and hit me in the head.

I retract my earlier statement. I'd say any dream where you get killed, especially by asshats on your side being asshats, is a bad dream.

Dude I just dreamt an entire Disney/Kingdom Hearts related cartoon in my head. It was completely animated except Sora was involved, and even he looked slightly animated/cartoon involved.
It took place in at a really cartoonish looking castle, I'm assuming the Disney castle from Kingdom Hearts, but it was mainly gold and orange with red roofs. The castle was basically a giant clock. Little objects popped out at certain times like a giant running train station and those old school Disney rides.
It looked like there was some kind of garage sale going on in the front lawn/gardens. It was led by Minnie and Daisy. I remember seeing Donald as a wizard, Huey, Dewy & Louie, Horace if you know who he is, and Pete helping and holding things to sell. Mickey was dressed up in some kind of armor and was obsessed with protecting the castle.
The customers looked like disney villains made out of different pieces of different ones. One looked like Malificent. Another looked like the evil queen. All of the random villains here were wearing red/black like the queen from Alice and wonderland.
While making rounds in the castle you see the old witch version of the queen sneaking around. She's different from the ones on the grounds. Here it felt like I was playing Sly Cooper. She was popping in and out trying to avoid Mickey, sometimes hurting herself. I even heard music with oboes and clarinets. After about the 5th try Mickey finds her and is about to kick her out. They try to go through one exit when a woman walks past them. I couldn't see who she was from the angle I was at. I was looking down or something? She was wearing a shorter enough dress so I could see her legs. She also had some kind of cape thing. At this point I heard some horror music. I got a mix of the woman being hot and being scary. I could see the witch lady laughing and she was giving me the same vibe.
Next scene, we're back outside at the sale. Same vibe/nothing special, when mickey goes all paranoid and puts the castle on lock down. He even locked himself out. He was also more brownish? Everybody goes crazy and tries to break into the castle. Here Sora pops up. Him and Horace try to get Mickey out of the phase he's in and even slap him.
Suddenly I get this chill like there's a threat in the main part of the building. Like a throne room. Everyone else gets it too. Mickey tries to get in but he can't. Horace casts a spell on him and he turns into Goofy? Even Mickey is like WTF at his reflection. They said he wasn't trying to be himself or something, like how these cartoons usually have a lesson and that somehow gets them inside.
Here we find the actually Goofy tied up and chained to the floor. There are some other characters there, mainly Max and Clarabell. Goofy starts explaining that he tied everyone up himself to protect the castle. Here we see Mickey back to himself talking about his knights. They were Horace, Sora, Goofy, and even Powerline from A Goofy Movie! You could feel the threat getting stronger.
I'm calling it a bad dream because I didn't get to see how it ended. I mainly wanted to see who the woman was.
