I'm okay with balkanization, so long as it can be done peacefully. This country is too fucking big to be ruled by a central authority. No need to kill millions to get there.
Conditions can change so fast and cause people to realign in previously unpredictable ways, will be curious if the movie tackles that or nah
I think this will be not good, and fade from cultural memory fast, I dread its attempt at tackling race (if it even goes there), and I will be there opening night.
Didn't realize how expansive Alex Garland's career has been, writing novels, films AND video games? His list of original stuff is great, would love to see him take a swing at an 80's anime ova adaptation someday (Megazone 23)
I’ve heard some rumblings that Nick Offerman’s character comes into power due to a contested election and the country devolves into martial law.
