Media Literacy in 2074

Oh boy, here I go, imagining dystopias again. Ray Bradbury would be proud.

Also, me making this video right now definitely has nothing to do with the way certain people are reacting to Dune Part Two, haha. Paul Atreides seems like a nice fellow.

The AUDACITY of publishing a video over a minute long...

[spevenpave]

I don't understand why they keep putting new ances in movies. The old ances were perfectly fine!

[mustardjar]

i would rather die than to live in a future where black adam is considered an art house film

“I can’t believe the director would endorse that”

[lordpyromon]

This gave me heavy Fahrenheit 451 vibes

[averagesizedperson]

i have a friend who is absolutely obsessed with Black Adam and is convinced that one day history is gonna regard it as a masterpiece. i'm afraid of showing her this video.

[unpronouncable]

oh I know this phenomenon. I call it the Bolo effect. You essentially take some random data points from the past (like tank size in case of Bolo Universe) and draw a straight line to an arbitrary point in the future (the further the more ridiculous the idea you'll end up with) like 32, 000 tonnes of tank with 3 turrets that shoot atomic blasts and can drive around at the cruising speed of 115 Kph or 500 Kph in a pinch.

It's interesting that in reality movies are actually getting longer

[Samuel-p]

Bold to assume, that anyone remembers Black Adam in 2074

[backwardsguy]

"yeah, but i had like five other screens around to distract me" 💀

[jayoungr]

I mean, Stripe-shirt should realize that he'd had enough of White-shirt's attention by that point. Watching those old movies is giving him unrealistic expectations.

[MrMighty]

Is there a word when something is depressing and funny simultaneously?

[jermafitzgerald]

I was unprepared for Clarence's thickness

[hannahr]

This literally made me feel horrible. Excellent work.

[Yesica]

"new-ances"
Hahahaha, I'm glad I'll be dead by then.
Poor Clarence.

[realkingofantarctica]

Him brushing his teeth in twenty seconds as opposed to two minutes because he lost patience is peak storytelling.

[blackdragon]

The video loaded without sound, and I thought this was just some cruel meta joke where by the end you'd say "you skipped until you heard sound, didn't you?"

[Nukles]

I love how the guy took off his "smart glasses" and paid attention to the other guy for EXACTLY 1 minute before putting them back on lmao

[MrQuantumInc]

Unironically a great, but appropriately short, depiction of the dangers of extremely short attention spans. Bad media literacy is part of it, but getting ignored by your friend like that...

[casey]

Holy shit, the Fahrenheit 451 bit lmao
