I'd be curious to hear more too. Disappointed they didn't go fully customisable on the library. I mean, there are barely 3000 ps1 titles...how much work could it possibly have been...

No Twisted Metal 2 = no dice

I'm still so new to Black Mirror, but I love that it's a show you don't have to watch in order. I've only seen a couple episodes and loved both. But I think I'm ready to jump around to some of the best episodes! If you guys have recommendations, I'd love to hear them!

 

(I've seen the one with Daniel Kaluuya that's like a fucked up American Idol, and the one where your contact lens thingies record your entire life. Man, that last one is one I still think about often!)

Go for season 3 hands down! It pushes the substance of the series into every dark smelly crevice you can think of. Also Black Museum; it's like three episodes in one, and touches on a lot of the ideas that other episodes are dedicated to.

I just don't feel that any of the stories are...bleak enough. They don't have that gut wrenching sense of strangeness that the first couple of seasons did. Plus, a couple of them have happy endings and one has no discernible ending. Also, I felt the second one didn't really address the role of technology in our lives much at all. If you're bored, there are worse things to watch. But it doesn't compare to the early stuff.

I totally agree - there's a hopeful vibe to the latest season, which is a bit of a departure from what we usually get. I found the first ep strangely endearing, the other two sort of stale.

I heard mixed things about Arrival, but Blade Runner 2 is pretty much all I really know about/of him as a director...and was pretty ace. Plus, from what I can see, the casting is on point. Hopes will be cooking on medium-high 'till release

It must be weirdly liberating taking on a reboot where the only way is up...but at the same time, the threat of treading the same sprawling and confused path beckons. Fear is the box office killer.
