Ah, I thought you meant branching in context of the main hook. Something along the lines of Primer.

Yeah, I totally agree with you regarding those points, it was pretty strange.

Btw, spoilers don't seem to work. I think the last bit of code needs to be on separate line.

Unless I missed something, there was never any branching in the movie. To be honest, it didn't see like that kind of movie, there was never a thriller/mystery vibe. In many ways it was a very straightforward narrative and almost classical high-level story format.

If you don't mind, please share what part you thought was branching (via spoiler tag?), I am genuinely curious. I don't remember being distracted, I enjoy the movie. 😄

Just watched this earlier today. I thought it was good, a little bit of "fairy tale for adults", but that's not a bad thing.

The social commentary is relatively toned down. IMO, the people who are complaining about the political elements are in a sense validating the critiques (one wouldn't complain if one didn't see any parallels).

So where does the sewage go?

[–] jbone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

That's a fair point.

It's a personal preference of sorts. I would rather they started a new project to highlight up and coming directors or focus on a special concept while putting the "Black Mirror" series on hold for 5-10 years.

That would be enough time for some novel n concepts around society and technology to become relevant.

No, of course we shouldn't stop making movies.

I just think they are not really adding much to their concept. And almost debasing some of their earlier achievements.

While I am a huge fan of Black Mirror, I think they need to stop making new seasons. Maybe an occasional one-off special in say 10 years. If that.

I feel like this is one movie that doesn't really need a direct sequel.

Were those pants and shirts comfortable for fencing or physical activity in general?

Never heard of Bosch. Might need to check it out. Cheers!

Good idea regarding adding tracks. This is music after all. 😀
