Ten Thousand Posts

There Is No Spoon ft. Andrew Law


Listen Later

Welcome back to the Ten Thousand Posts *Movie Club*! Get your favourite movie theatre snack (may I suggest some refried beans and a tin of Tilapia?), relax and enjoy. 

This week, we're joined by Andrew Law (@IllyBocean) from the BoontaVista podcast, to talk about the first Matrix movie. Released in 1999, the film is considered a cinematic masterpiece, not least because many of the predictions and thoughts explored by the Wachowski sisters are not only prescient today (we live in a simulacara, am i right, fellas?), but also show aspects of the kind of internet we could have if it wasn't just a playground for Facebook advertising. I want my posts dojo, Zuckerberg! 
Alongside this, we talk about our favourite parts of the movie, why the film is really all about a gamer who constantly gets tricked by a troll while simping e-girls, and, crucially, why its *completely fine* to bully a child if they are Australian.
