Game of Life

After watching it, I realized that this season has changed the production company. In short, I really feel the difference from the previous two seasons. The criticism of the first two seasons is biased towards social politics, suggesting dark humor, which is not my personal favorite. Even in the second season Season began to feel tired and tired, and the repeated accumulation of negative emotions could not be released, which brought people alert and reflection, and the sense of despair also sneaked deeper. At the beginning of the third season, the brisk macaron tone was really comfortable. But This kind of comfort is also short-lived. It is not only dark colors that can bring people to think, it is precisely the more ironic problems that appear in brighter times. For example, "laughing and crying" is often more important than "crying" It makes people sad.

This season has jumped out of the limitations of the first two seasons and brought in more sci-fi colors. Except for the lackluster third episode, the others have their own ingenuity. In particular, combining episodes 2, 4, 5, and 6, chat Let's take a look.

Everyone can be regarded as a part of the game. The "life" and "death" in the ordinary sense are actually just exiting from one game and entering another game. You don't know when the real game is over. (Episode 2);

Since it is a game, in principle, there should be game players, that is, the game controller. Who is the game controller? A robotic arm, hahahaha (Episode 4) A higher species of human beings.

Why do people not know themselves in games, fear death, and crave pleasure? It is the so-called "unbreakable"? It is because they are blinded and "indoctrinated" by good "people" who play games. "Justice" and "Evil". The game is very real. Even if a "person" discovers the secret one day, the "person" who is stuck in it still can't break free (Episode 5). The genetic screening mentioned in this episode, From this, I suddenly thought that it was popular to spend a few hundred dollars a while ago to use DNA to detect personal genetic diseases. I was very scared.

The sixth episode, a bit like a sci-fi suspense crime movie. It can also be used to fill in and expand into a movie. Yes. Following the above conjecture discussion, "doing too much injustice will kill oneself". The decline of human beings in the future (the end of a game), all the evil consequences come from the "evil deeds" of human beings themselves, nothing else.

    Why do so many people think it's ruined, the creator + screenwriter (4 episodes out of 6 episodes were written independently, and the other 2 episodes are also the main force) is still Charlie Brooker, except for changing the platform and using some American actors. The core content has not changed at all. In short, except for the 4th episode, I quite like it, the expression is gentle, and the views are quite deep.

    Originally, the story of the first two seasons was not as long as the previous two seasons. It would look a lot better if it was cut into forty-five minutes and one episode. The cheap horror of the second episode was just maddening.
