Black Mirror..
« on: Friday, January 06, 2012, 02:27:20 PM »
Have any of you guys heard of this or seen it? It's a British show created by Charlie Brooker and it's freaking amazing.

The full second episode is on youtube, and I'm sure the other two are on there as well.

I've only watched episode 2, and it's eerie, and thought provoking. Check this out...seriously.

I've been watching the show since it started, caught wind of it early December. It's interesting, some good food for thought there. Very "Twilight Zone" like.

I've only watched the "15 Million Merits" episode linked, and that was a enough to make me a fan of the talent behind the show.  Being so heavily invested in the Xbox, it strikes a chord within me.  Take Kinect, avatars and corporate greed to the next level, and we're well on our way there.

Oh yeah, brilliant episode! It's remarkable how plausible such a bleak scenario could be!
