but netflix are billing this as an event, I saw you can choose endings, but maybe more than that?

I assume you get to a point in the film (TV show) where you can chose two or more different paths using your TV remote.

I assume technology has now caught up with the times, and can now beam different paths and outcomes of the show as it progresses, in real time, to your house. So you can have multiple versions of the show.

This was actually pioneered on a few lazerdisk run video games in public amusement parlours back in the early eighties with the game Dragons lair, and later on Space ace where you controlled the number of possible senarios and outcomes, mostly ending up with death scenes  (I was useless at it)

Oh wonderful, neither my smart Samsung TV, my FireTV stick or my Sony Blu-ray player support this interactivity, I don't want to watch this on my laptop. :(

I could do I guess, at this point it's starting to become less of an event and more of a chore.

Maybe I'll just play the Spectrum game instead...

Finally started watching the three new episodes that dropped on Netflix.

Striking Vipers (I guess inspired by the arcade game Fighting Vipers) was a bit of a slow episode, interesting in the way it didn't fall down into cliches.

So, the other night, I fancied watching Death to 2020. I realised I hadn't actually watched Bandersnatch or the last series of Black Mirror!

So the last few nights I watched them, I enjoyed them, they were good, but not up to the previous high standard. Also, despite not being that "Black Mirrory", I think I'm in a minority, but enjoyed the Miley Cyrus Vs. Nine Inch Nails one the most :)

As always, made you think, interesting how the 2nd one reminded me of how when we were kids, drink driving is bad, was drummed into our heads, but there doesn't seem as much effort to drive the message home about "texting and driving" etc.

I really enjoyed Death to 2020. Especially the soccer mom and Samnuel L Jackson, they were both excellent. I liked the way the first 30 mins or so about covid were quite funny, then as the subject change, it sobered up, before slowly getting back into comedy.
