Are there any movies about a world we might be heading to with total surveillance and control? I don’t recall what ultraviolet was about … maybe that 🤔

Minority Report. At least surveillance regarding crimes

Saw something about tech like that here already

Not a movie, but many black mirror episodes.

Seen all

An interesting UK tv series a few years ago, called ‘The Capture’, about AI manipulation/generation of the surveillance already in place, that provoked a few thoughts…

Many have indirect elements about it 😅

- Enemy of the State

- In Time

- Dark City

- The island

- Logan's run

- Soylent Green

- The Truman Show

- Minority Report

- Surrogates

Equilibrium, V for Vendetta, and Gattaca come to mind

Nice. Watched 3/5

Oh wait there are 2 more ..

A bit more of a stretch but: The Walking Dead https://www.imdb.com/title/tt152021

🧟‍♂️

Brazil

🤔

Fantastic movie

And ahead of its time…

I thought you guys were teasing me but then saw the trailer

No, it’s great; my philosophy professor recommended it to me when I was 15 and was full of stupid statist ideas

The best thing of the movie is that there is a superhero who is just a guy who fixes small things in people's houses completely against the law.

It's actually a horrible movie for my taste, but it does the job.

That I remember now:

Films

Minority Report

Code 46

Ex Machina

The Island

Series

Black Mirror

Westworld (S1)

Enemy of the State staring Will Smith.

Kafka by Steven Soderbergh. Not exactly on topic, not entirely off

Yeah just watch Leave it to Beaver- that’s roughly what we’re headed towards

Idiocracy comes to mind. 🤣

Demolition Man 😏

John Spartan, you are fined one credit for a violation of the verbal morality code!

Also, Equilibrium, released in 2002. 🤙🏻
