I am not perfect with my listening. I'M NOT PERFECT OK?? I tend to get behind on all -- then binge listen to catch up. Just like TV (in which I'm years behind on everything.) I'm also subscribed to thousands more -- and will subscribe to more based on other people's posts here. Because I have FOMO.

[Her (2013)]

I liked it a ton. Basically felt the same way you did Dave. Thought it was a great prequel to THE MATRIX or TERMINATOR. A little too rosy vision of AI for my tastes. Great filmmaking -- beautifully shot. Loved the exploration of what relationships are -- are they a projection of what's inside us? Is it inevitable that they break up when they stop being that, and the person takes on their own consciousness/interests and are no longer just a reflection of us? And then there's the layer of -- where does the love go when you break up with someone .... lots of layers in this piece, which is why I liked it a ton. Not my favorite film of the year, though, which it was for a lot of people.
