Feel better…

Also, I haven’t seen electric state yet, but as someone who has read the books this should be done more like McCormack’s The Road as far as tone… no cannibalism of course, unless it’s about us being zombies to our screens. It shouldn’t be some action movie like ready player one which it does have those dystopian future hallmarks as well. It’s more about isolation and the loneliness of a society that is perpetually online. So the fans of the books are going to be annoyed if they go too far off and it’s pretty weird as far as the robots looking like Five Nights at Freddie’s for mass appeal and the budget they probably had. Also Chris Pratt as an added character to help the female lead on her journey is questionable since in the book the woman doesn’t need a man to help her on her journey.
