I just watched this episode of Blackmirror (Shut Up And Play)
HOLY FUCK, I DON'T WANT TO USE TECHNOLOGY ANYMORE, I WANT TO DESTROY MY LAPTOP AND CELLPHONES, TOMORROW I WILL MOVE TO A SMALL SHACK IN ALASKA TO LIVE HUNTING AND EATING SQUIRRELS, I DON'T EVEN WANT TO MASTURBATE ANYMORE

just put a sticker on your webcam user.

i hope the first episode of this season comes true. i hate all these people who stay on their phones checking facebook all day at work and while theyre driving

All you have to do is NOT beat off to cheese pizza. You dummy.

But seriously, if you don't cover your camera you deserve what ever happens

I feel like they really missed the opportunity to show the "trolls" and how they are disgusting people too. At least in the first episode, they show the kidnapper committing suicide, adding another layer to the story, but Shut Up and Play felt so one-sided.

Too late, faggot. We witnessed what you just performed.
Nice cheese pizza by the way, the police will surely appreciate it.

The kid was retarded to begin with and had it coming

>having a webcam at all

you wanted to see the fat, pimple covered, greasy trolls?
their actions alone showed how they are disgusting people, showing them would have been cheap

the point of it was how the villain was the character's own guilt, the trolls had no power they weren't given
also beyond that trolling has become a lot more common and this episode is a vague potential in the world currently

>missed the opportunity
>missed
you missed the point

also the kidnapper in the first episode (pm fuckin a pig I assume) was barely relevant, the whole thing was more like a thought exercise on how to logically justify shock and play it out realistically
the kidnapper was only there for the "first great piece of art in the 21st century", which could be explored further but really is just Charlie Brooker saying "yeah, that's my episode, it's art, fuck off"

Shut up liberal

>people who cover their webcams

you're not that important

>you're not that important
probably not, but he could be stupid enough to download some mystical russian keylogging virus from a program to watch movies and then proceed to masturbate pedophillically

did you even watch the episode?

Daily reminder that the Virtual Reality/Lesbian episode only exists because of OP and his ilk kept saying that Back Mirror was anti-tech and caused Charlie to snap and do a happy ending SJW episode to fuck with people

THICC

I fapped with the last scene

While it was a good stand-alone story with great performances, the lesbian episode was a mistake.

>faceless company builds a massive virtual reality world where dead people can live forever
>said company is apparently perfectly benevolent despite the entire series being about people using technology to abuse each other

In reality the "residents" would be ruthlessly monetized every way the company could get away with.

yeah but suspending disbelief, it's more funny that they introduced the concept of living forever in a virtual simulation without delving any further in to it
are the lifers there just the echoes of the consciousness that once lived in san fierro? present only for the comatose wanderers who get 20 minutes a month to experience it

I found it hard to pay attention to the episode since nothing eventful or interesting happened so if they actually explained this someone let me know how

The lesbian episode was lame. I couldnt sympathize with the characters, and it felt like there was no real drive for the relationship to continue like the way it did

why? what happened?

It was purely made so that the rad-fems and SJW's would say they enjoyed the season.

>are the lifers there just the echoes of the consciousness that once lived in san fierro?
Actually the lifers are using bikes, they go cross country cee jay.

>Shut Up And Play
I thought it was shut up and dance. but I also watched this today and was thinking why this hasnt happened in real life yet?

Unless you're jerking off to CP like the kid in the episode I wouldn't give a fuck. Everyone jerks off to internet porn.

Why did you switch The Waldo Moment and White Christmas?

>jerking off to CP

>racists are as bad as pedos

>there was no real drive for the relationship to continue like the way it did

what is love

absolute pleb, tells you a lot about reddit tastes

Do you people even watch this stuff?

>The show itself is saying that racists are as bad as pedos and not just that a high profile CEO would be persecuted about as badly as a pedophile
I hate the way people who react overtly to shilled political correctness are generally so fucking stupid
I know there are intelligent ones but you really make everyone look bad by being such a fucking idiot

The entire history of you is prob my fav.
whats the general thought on this episode

You can't get arrested for jacking off as far as I know, only arrested for making, possessing or distributing child porn. He could have told the hacker to fuck off then told his family he was jacking off to regular child porn and the hacker staged it to look like he was jacking to child porn. Case solved.

Also my favorite. I cried towards the end

It frustrated me that the black chick made this big impassioned speech about how she couldn't live forever in San Junipero with someone else after losing her husband permanently, and then she just goes and does it anyway.

The show explained why a never-ending party simulation would be hollow -- not to mention a betrayal of the woman's old love -- and then totally ignored all that so the ending could be "happy."

>lol never mind my big important speech
>fuck my husband
>fuck all the philosophical points I just made
>we're in loooove

>He could have told the hacker to fuck off then told his family he was jacking off to regular child porn and the hacker staged it to look like he was jacking to child porn. Case solved.

But they was also going to show everyone on the internet what he did, including friends and family. He isn't going o convince hundreds of people he isn't a pedo

The truth was that she didn't even believe in an afterlife. And her mind began to change as soon as she decided to apologize for ditching the white girl. That's when it started. It wasn't an instant change of heart

best episode, focuses more on characters than on techno-shit
