Good question OP. What did you think?
it was interesting. Weird that a show was made about a subject brought up by Joe Rogan multiple times on his podcast while high. He would be like "Dude like in the future we will become so advanced as a society that we can create an algorithm that predict and create events in the past and future to an almost perfect degree." He also mentions Ex Machina as his favorite movie many times. hmmm
I liked it a lot, I guess. Good story and acting, great visuals, interesting concepts. Unsure how I feel about the ending but I guess it makes sense if Forest was actually wrong and the universe is not deterministic. Or rather, if I understand correctly, it IS deterministic. But there are infinite universes equally deterministic but with different outcomes, so the concept of "free will" become some sort of blanket statement towards the multiversal possibility of infinite variations.
OMG ITS REALLY CALLED DEUS AND HIS OTHER MOVIE IS CALLED EX MACHINA OMG THAT'S LITERALLY SO COOL HAHA
Lol I came here to comment that too. I actually kind of like it. It sort of bridges them together into the same [multi]verse?
It would have been better if the show didn't include Lily/Sergei/Jamie.
'no.'
Why would Forest set the sim to the time period where Devs is? His whole character was about him being trapped in the past. Wouldn't he set the sim to be those days he remembered?
Or is his family hanging now?
Or does "Devs" have to exist in the sim?
Or is it just lazy filmmaking and they needed to show that things "reset" while just reusing cast/sets?
In the simulated reality, DEVS doesn't exist. That's why the field is empty that Forest is playing with his family. Forest never needed to open DEVS if his daughter isn't dead.
