I really liked that movie.

This seems to be the major concern people have about "over there." Will I still be me? Will I still have my body?

Why would you want the wings of a Sparrow when you are given the wings of an Eagle? YOU is a suit of clothes you put on for a time, and YOU are not in there any more than Beethoven is in a radio playing Beethoven's 5th.

When you get tired of the body and bored with "playing house", you can let it all go, and it is then that the real adventures can start. There is MUCH more beyond The Park, beyond Focus 27. In fact, most of it.....

However, any activity out of the physical body, even if it is in a virtual duplicate, is good practice and builds your energetic self, your spiritual self. And the key is PRACTICE and INTENTION.

Just my 2 cents.

I was deeply moved by the movie, even though its cheezy ending tainted it for me. Though I have a reasoned rejection of reincarnation, I did not mind the insertion of this theme, just the silly way it was done: "I found you in Hell; so I should be able to find you in New Jersey."  Yuck!  Also, Heaven was portrayed as a dull, static place, despite the projection of motifs from the imagination of the deceased.  I longed for some sense of purpose, some hint of new educational options. 

What I really liked was the exploration of the father's postmortem relationships with his 2 chilldren.  It was interesting that the children impersonated someone else when present with Robin Williams, their Dad.  Robin's determination to "retrieve" his suicidal wife was exquisitely sensitive and provocative, if not accurate.

For 2 years, I sponsor a monthly potluck dinner and movie night that draw a good crowd from the community.  I show only great movies that express spiritual themes.  I am still debating whether I will show "What Dreams May Come."  At present, "What the [Bleep]" strikes me as a better choice.

I too just wanted to say that What Dreams May Come is probably my favorite movie. It has some problems, but I really like vision of what might be out there. If I can have a body in my dreams then I figure in the dreams to come I will have one if I want one.
