Hollywood seems to predict everything, but searching for prescient movies about cbdc's nothing specific comes up. Just super surveilled society backdrops
Black Mirror "Nosedive"
In Time
Minority Report
Discussion
minority report is kinda relevant because people's bank accounts freeze up too when they have a precrime report on them
In Time was quite good too... funny, i haven't seen that one in a while but it's almost like an allegory of inflationary money to the extreme
Just asked a mate about In Time, he remembers it well and said it was a good tragi-comedy. Added it to the list for winter watching.
yeah, it's a good one, a really good fable about time preference, shit i need to watch it again too but fuck i can't put 2h out of my day on this shit lol
also, what some people call "tragicomedy" is literally ironic
a story that highlights the contradiction in a situation, that is ironic, that is the definition of irony, and it can be funny, if it is a contradiction that you didn't expect
You should be a film critic. I'm more intrigued than ever by In Time. Now, get back to work!
