Love to see Soylent Green on there. Both in a metaphorically and quickly approaching literal sense.
Idk it doesn’t look like we’ll run out of food and the population bomb turned out to be a dud. Maybe the food chain will collapse in the ecocrisis, but Capital will find a way to produce food more energy-intensively to compensate.
It’s a classic, but it reflects the anxieties of the time for sure.
I’m not convinced that tech and humanity can create enough food sources to make up for losses that climate change is going to create. I think the damage is going to occur much more quickly than any replacement food chain could be established.
Brazil is infinitely better than the US. Cope, Murica.
I hate 1984 on so many levels…
Lol not even close lmao 🤣
very weak in the subgroupings. There could be 2 axises of dystopia. 1. Autocratic vs chaotic 2. some attempt to mean well vs dystopia by design.
axes*
Some of these feel mutually exclusive…
FFS just put on the damn sunglasses.
No we need to have an unnecessary 10 minute fistfight instead of just trying it for myself.
And in so doing, we’ll have the greatest first fight ever committed to film.
Ah yes, the four cornerstones of dystopian fiction: 1984, Brave New World, Idiocracy, and Hunger Games
Where’s weekend at Bernie’s
Should have gone with Social, Political, Economical and (Post-)Apocalyptical.
I stared at this for a good couple of minutes trying to figure out why the new Captain America movie was in the diagram
Media is inspired by reality.
I’m in the Man in the High Castle universe,
but also feel like I’m a Belter in The Expanse
but also, feels like the Faction in the Travelers took over and are fucking up shit, which explains the Mandella effect
and personally, I feel like my family is fake and they are a bunch of people trying to mess with me (Truman Show), but also sprinkle a bit of Inception in there, since this feels so surreal
Okay, my conclusion: Y’all are fake, its just my imagination. Nothing exists. “I think, therefore I am”, I’m the only one here.
Wait. THIS IS THE BAD PLACE!
The “politicians” are just demons trying to torture me. 😱
I’m in Brazil and I feel this.
Those films were supposed to be a warning … NOT A GUIDE!
the matrix looks so cool though…
The hookup to the Matrix in this reality is located a lot lower in the body than at the base of the neck
kinky
Torment Nexus! Torment Nexus!
Throws in “Flight of the Navigator” to skip forward eight years.
Evangelion will let you skip ahead 14 years…
Oh, don’t be so dramatic. We’re nowhere near that yet. We’re just rapidly spiraling toward it like a disoriented skydiver tangled in the lines of their reserve chute.
Plunging toward oblivion while happily screaming, “10,000’ so far so good, 5,000’ so far so good…”
Don’t forget that we are actually skydiving in tandem with someone who either doesn’t believe in gravity, is trying to hit the ground on purpose, or both.
That person is actively stabbing at the harness with a rusty pair of shears while accusing you of sabotaging the jump. Sometimes they end up stabbing themselves, but usually they just end up stabbing you through the harness instead.
