Huh, this whole time I've been trying to make the conscious unconscious because I'd rather be asleep.

If you're curious about this you might like the book "Free will" by Sam Harris.

I remember seeing that movie as a kid. The scene where the concept of will jumps over the kid wasn't nearly as cool as that whale movie though.
