Bandersnatch: Interactive TV or just one big mind fuck?

in blackmirror •  6 years ago 

I think almost every person into crypto and a bit of chosing alternative paths is familiar with the 'Black Mirror' series. If you are not? Shame on you, and make this happen ASAP!


Now Black Mirror came with its first 'real'movie, which is actually not that different from the loose epiodes. A lot of the Black Mirror episodes are already having a duration of longer than an hour, and every time tell a totally different story, so what is then different about this movie?

The cool thing about Bandersnatch: It is an interactive movie. As inYOU decide what paths the main character takes. To me that is a real cool concept, one that Black Mirror always has a little nose for doing something new. But that also means you can not watch it on everything. Apple TV and chromecast are no-gos on watching this one one. You need a HDMI cable or just watch it on your laptop or playstation.


So choices what do you mean?


I mean that you decide on the fate of main character Stefan, as in what music he listens to, what kind of breakfast that he eats, and later in the story if he buries a body of cuts it into pieces. The movie has 5 possible outcomes which means that the 1.30 hour duration can be a lot longer is you check out all possible endings.


Also Charlie Brook wouldn't be Charlie Brook if in the whole movie it wouldnt have all kinds of possible referrals to other Black Mirror episodes. I saw Nosedive popping by (the episode about the girl who looses her life ranking and gets nothing done anymore, which currently also is real life happening in China in some kind of way) USS callistor as a poster on the wall of Stefans bedroom (the spaceship episode, which always pops by in all kinds of discord jokes) and Metalhead (the episode about the AI metal dogs taking over the world....arghhhh reality!!!!)


In other words, don't expect any magic from this extended episode, but on the other hand it is a must see in terms of revolutionary ideas.

    Yeah omg... what a episode... 🤣😂🤣🙈 I'll will give you a worse mind fuck. What about this.... we all got a spirit the bible sais.. in headspace you let your mind go and learn from it.. so you have a body that just do everything.. the spirit takes control of the body. Maybe our body got invaded by a spirit for the experience. We don't control ourselves but are controlled by suggestions. 😈😈😈😈😈😈

        How many times have you seen it? I liked it. And am now really curious what happens if I pick some very different options in the very beginning. I read there are 5 main endings - that's enough to be able to play with this episode a bit more! I felt like it 'steered' me in one direction a bit, but then I read about the 5 endings and now I'm not so sure... So I'll watch it again :-)

          I saw 4 different outcomes in the end out of the 5. And yeah with some wine and a good dosis of curiosity I really had no issue with seeing a lot of the pieces again and again :D

          I also had the feeling that I was directed in a certain direction, so I often chose the other one... or was that the point of them for you to choose the other one ...hahahha ARGH!

              I thought the movie was fun. I think we got like 3 or 4 endings before the credits started to roll, I wonder if there's going to be more films like that.

              I guess the only thing I wasn't a fan of is that they had to jump off the balcony while on acid which is such a played out scene in my opinion.

                I guess in the end more movies like this will be made, giving you choices and option and turning it more into an interactive videogame. (getting the remote every time to make a choice... lazyness took over every now and then :D)

                Yeah I also found that scene kind of strange, and not in line with the rest of the movie for some reason. As if it was put in mandatory. On the othere hand it refers to Nosedive again... i dunno hahaha

                      Muchos de mis amigos que la vieron me dijeron que no les gustó, pero yo la he visto ya varias veces es buenísima.

                        Sí, eso también fue cierto para mí. No todos estaban igual de entusiasmados, pero eso no importa. No nos tiene que gustar todo el uno del otro, creo. Y me lo paso muy bien viendo!
