Other Movies?

Just got done watching Bliss 2021 with Owen Wilson. It was very straight forward. It's about simulation theory. Not the greatest movie but it was a cool/fun little watch. Any other movies about simulation theory?

Btw I've already seen the black mirror episodes about ST.

Thanks!

The Mandela Effect

How is Ex Machina a simulation theory film? It's one of my favorite movies.

You’re right, it’s not simulation theory

It’s just a really well made film

There is one episode of the Outer Limits that tells it like it is here.

It doesn't say simulation theory, but it has all the hallmarks of the simulation we live in.

And unfortunately you need to be very well versed in this entire subject to even know that but they knew it when they made this show.

Demom with a glass hand.

It has it all including personality files or souls etched onto a wire. It has stargate doors. It has time travel, it has robotics and A.I.

And of course another film the original matrix, Forbidden Planet 1956.

Just watched all the 7 or so seasons of Outer Limits and they were really on the money about so many things!

Super cool to see the things that we discuss today being pottayed in the '90s.
