Is this pro-communist in the era of woke? Or is it faithful to the original material?


Is it worth a watch or is it another commie revisionist remake?

reply

God forbid you should think for yourself!

Calm down mad lad. I’m asking because I don’t have sub for it, and want to know whether it’s commie woke garbage or not before I pay for it.

reply

Neither. It's a pile of trash with scarcely any connection to the book. Apparently it's very difficult to adapt. But no, it isn't pro-communist or woke in any way. It's not intelligent enough to take a position either way on those issues. It's so bad I actually watched three episodes in disbelief at how awful it really is, but it isn't even entertainingly awful. Don't waste your time watching it.

reply

Damnit, that’s a real shame.

Was this the one with the soma drug, and people kept asking each other if they wanted to "engage" (i.e. play hide-the-salami?) And then they find Peter Ustinov up in a cave in the mountains with a bunch of stray cats? (Actually I think that's Logan's Run)
