Chris Pratt and Millie Brown are easily the most annoying actors around right now. Pass

Just watched this today - Overall its like a marriage of Peripheral and the first chapter of the animatrix. I'd say its good second screen material, but not a super rewarding watch by itself
- Drinker just released a entertaining review of it https://youtu.be/MVfdnOeM2Hw
  I mostly agree with it. He points out the electric state costs the same as 10 seasons of firefly would have.

Feels to me like they just copied the visual cues completely disregarding the overall mood of the art they're based on, making it just another Disney action family movie.

This is on my watch list. I'm curious how it compares to the Amazon Prime show, Tales From The Loop.
- It doesn’t, really. Tales From the Loop was a methodical and pretty deep exploration of human nature. I loved that show. Electric State is a basic human vs robot story with some fun action and not a lot of depth. The main similarity is big robots. It was still enjoyable to watch, I definitely recommend checking it out, but it’s pretty superficial.

I enjoyed it. I don’t think it was groundbreaking or anything but the story didn’t annoy me and the robot design was great, except Mr. Peanut. He’s so jarring compared to the rest.
- i liked Mr. Peanut! And his peanut mobile
  Though it raises the question do all the robots have the same intelligence? How do they choose a leader? Different personalities? Why not any networking?
  
  It’s not that I disliked the character, I just didn’t like what they landed on for his design. It’s like the first design of the 3d sonic but there was no fan outrage to get it changed lol

I just finished watching it. It's a decent movie on it's own, but it's a completely different story than what was in the book. They got the art style mostly right, but the plot points were totally off.
