The Film Thread

[Letters]

I just don't see how it has or ever will have any effect on my life. I post how I want, I go where I want, I don't feel anyone is "tracking" me by CCTV or GPS and even if they are it is having no effect on my life nor do I think it ever will. I guess it could in some distopian future but I think that unlike. These sorts of predictions have been being made for decades and I see nothing yet.

If you think this is dangerous then you need to explain why, what freedoms does it stop you enjoying.

If I need to explain it to you then I won't actually be able to explain it, because we must both be operating under different perceptions of reality that are entirely incompatible. But, Snowden gives it a go in the movie, although with a bit of a sneer. Watch it, you might catch a glimmer of something.

Also, just so you know, you're already living in the dystopian future. As a Christian it's literally quite unbelievable you don't realise that.

Blade runner 2049


Thought the first one was overrated garbage so I suspect this one will follow suit.

Overrated garbage? Overrated maybe, but garbage?

I don't hold out much hope for a remake of a one-off film either. Bute surely there has to be at least one half decent film in 2017? Maybe this will be it.

The sequel held it's weight. It's a bit too long but a worthy sequel. That's rare these days.

I was about to say the same thing.

You may want to read Revelations again and do some research on the theories surrounding that book. As a Christian, this sort of thing should be on your radar. I can't understand how you feel it has no effect on your life. Surely someone in your circle says we're in end of days territory with what we're seeing in the world?

Speaking of Phillip K Dick inspired stuff has anyone watched the Electric Dreams series on Channel 4?

Worth a go?

Yeah I saw the first 3 episodes. Not bad for sunday evening TV.
