OMG, there is a Ph.D movie!

My favorite comic strip and procrastination strategy from grad school has been made into a movie! http://www.phdmovie.com/

[But wait! Keith says: "Another comic, Wondermark, has a coupon code to watch the PHD movie for half price:

http://wondermark.com/piled-higher-deeper-a-movie-about-academia/ "]

dr_pretentious, relive your agonizing experience with higher education here!

We can stream it and laugh (cry?) over memories of our vastly and artificially extended childhoods in the training halls of academia...

showingup, you too can relive your not-so-silent horror at our heart-rending years of indentured servitude to The Man.

Best scene from the trailer: "How's your thesis going?"

Wait - there's a character who keeps asking her friends why they stay in an abusive relationship with their department and committee, and offering to Underground Railroad them out of the state??!!

It does look fun :D
