Black Mirror

[heatmeiser]

Not the disappointing follow up by Arcade Fire (ooh controversial) but the mini series by the excellent Charlie Brooker.

Anyone been watching it?

I thought the first one was a superb bit of unsettling mind-[Poor language removed] TV. Summing up the vile twitter mob-rule mentality, power of social networking and 'figures' for the people in charge.

Just watching the second on sky+ and so far, so good. I'm a sucker for a bit of dystopian gloom, especially with a bit of augmented reality thrown in for good measure. You can tell Brooker is a total gaming nerd.

Anyways, back to the box.

I find this thread badly racist.

Un duex trois, dis miroir noir!

Black Mirror was a song on the album and the only disappointment is you.

 

[Roztitute]

Black Mirror is a good song I'll have you know.

 

[heatmeiser]

So nobody watched it then?

 

[RFUS]

I love Charlie Brooker so I'll check it out for sure.

Sorry, it's a reflection of how little that album/song meant to me that I honestly can't remember what it's called (and may well have a fair bit to do with the empty bottle of wine next to me).

I quite enjoyed the first one. I'll watch the second one at a later point

You horror.

We're not friends anymore.

Does it make you feel better that The Zookeepers's Boy is my ringtone?

Two steps back, one step forward.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Mine is "Fear of the Dark" by Iron Maiden.

Can we be friends?

 

[RFUS]

Only if there are also 'benefits'.

 

[heatmeiser]

Wow, did I really type Zookeepers's?

Jeez. I definitely shouldn't play skyrim tonight.

You know, I've never actually heard Maiden as a ringtone....
