>>223743391any movie where a crime is committed and the perpetrator is not caught within 24 hours. flock cameras and palantir are going to make it so you can't even do shit in your own homes.
>>223743424Basically person of interest if the machine didn't only give a number
>>223743391why couldn't they just set it in the 80's ?
>>223743463Keanu wasn't old enough then. They'd have been screwed
>>223743391>Everybody would have a smartphone>And GPS>And there's such things as drones>And AI>Satellite view of everything>The police technology and practices and procedures would be vastly improved toook how would this prevent the movie from being made?
>>223743391Lord of The RingsSauron would have a smartphoneAnd GPSAnd there's such things as nazgul dronesAnd AISatellite view of everythingThe police orcs technology and practices and procedures would be vastly improved too
>>223743424Very possible we have cities now where the cops are lazy and don't do shit
>>223743391You could make present day speed>ex cop terrorist is an fbi patsy/white supremacist>black hat feds are interfering with surveillance panopticon to keep the false flag op afloat>swap keanu reeves out for zendaya
>>223743391>Movies that would be impossible to make todayAll of them.
>>223743682No interesting story could be told with those premises. Unless you are making a period piece, and they are all shit nowadays
>>223743391Whatever happened to Jan De Bont? Feels like he put out some bangers and then disappeared.
>>223745899He retired. Looks like he had a slew of unrealized projects, including a chance to direct Minority Report.
>>223745934>Minority Report directed by Jan De BontGoddamn... we really missed out.
>>223743762why didn't they just amazon drone delivery the one ring into mount doom?
>>223743391>>223745521But the movie was a hostage situation involving a bomb. How does the existence of smartphones make this an impossible scenario?Explain in 25 words or less.
>>223743391>And GPSHow would that change anything people knew where the bus was and saw it the whole time?
>>223746027How so? Spielberg's version is probably the best film he's done in the last 20+ years.
>>223743762No one has refuted this
>>223746719Everyone can contact everyone, every facet of the situation would be perfectly known, no mystery, no suspance
>>223743424It's cute that people are up in arms over flock cameras while constantly having GPS enabled devices on them at all times while all of your internet activity captured by marketing firms to know everything about you to optimise advertising.Privacy was given up a long time ago.
>>223747231And?
>>223746826Less schmaltz, possibly a quicker/steadier pace.
>>223743424Gang members nowadays are so stupid they record their own crimes and post them on social media
>>223743424>and the perpetrator is not caught within 24 hoursyouve been mindbroken by csi shows. the law is more incompetent than ever but you think theyre like omnipotent gods. just leave your phone at home
>>223747403>no mystery, no suspance>and?
>>223743391>>223747231It is still a movie, you think you can't insert a 1 line plot device to fix that?>there's a bomb on the bus, it explodes if the bus reaches 50MPH>I have also installed a cellular, GPS, drone and AI jamming device on the busHell this even provides opportunity for an additional stunt scene where keanu reeves is rooting around for this other device
All that technology might help the bus before the bomb gets armed but what happens after and the bus has to stay above 50?
>>223743424>any movie where a crime is committed and the perpetrator is not caught within 24 hours. flock cameras and palantir are going to make it so you can't even do shit in your own homes.Unless you are a negro
>>223747811The fact that you have to create a plot point to neutralize modernity so your plot and atmosphere can happen is not the best argument
>>223747648Smartphones would not have helped the situation, dumbass. The bus driver would've still gone over the limit. Keanu would've still been in phone contact with his team. Et cetera et cetera.You are dumb fucking retard mindlessly repeating the same talking points from social media with no thought or care about how it applies to the current conversation.
>>223747811But you don't need to do that. Keanu didn't know anyone on the bus so it's not like he could ring them up.Also if you watched the movie you'll notice Keanu had a cell phone. And it didn't fucking matter. Hot shot.
>>223748098Everyone would be filming that shit in any moment and everyone would know all the time what's happening, retarded zoomerEveryone say this on socials because it's true, an you would know if your normality wasn't 24/7 online surveillance state + capeshit
>>223748118You are retarded
>>223743424Just because they know who the perpretator is it doesnt mean hell get caught. Also, police can be overloaded with the amount of occurrences depending on the crime rates where you live, so some crimes will inevitably slip by.
>>223748178So what if everyone knew? How does that help them solve the situation? In the movie they had constant media coverage, until the end, that was broadcasting the whole event to everyone >>223748187I accept your concession.
>>223746637the eagles drove amazon out of business
>>223747811Then how does the fucking bomber contact them?
>>223743391How does any of that prevent a terrorist from putting a bomb on a bus that detonates if the speedometer decreases beneath a certain amount?
>>223743391Mite B. Goode desu Have the whole thing turn into an enormous media circus that captivates the whole city while the bad guy does the other heist part of the plan. The whole point is to make it so everyone can see what's happening to the bus right away.
>>223748220Again, no mystery, no suspance. Everything is obvious all the times.
In this case wouldn't technology actually benefit Dennis Hopper because of how they beat him?
Just a threadly reminder that smart phones would not make Speed impossible.
>>223743762I don't see how any of that would alter the movie even one bit?
>>223748473It actually would because now even if they tried to loop the footage, the terrorist would still see everything from other people live streaming or shit since cameras and smartphones are everywhere
>>223747956Listen hear retard, no mystery, no subspace, everyone has drones. Keanu replaced by Zoe Kravitz, Sandra Bullock replaced by a fat guy like spider man's friend or jonah hill, Dennis hopper replaced by Jake Paul
>>223748248he slip in through the subnet
>>223743762What would Sauron even do with a smartphone? He can almost see everything already.
>>223743391He just makes an additional demand that Keanu collects all the smartphones on the bus and throw them out the window.
>>223748764That would be a detriment to him.
>>223743391>keanu gets ipad
>>223748546>it actually wouldYup I agree
>>223743391They could just remotely control the bus...
Yeah if all the bus passengers had smart phones they would've known about the bomb and told the driver to not exceed 50mph. Movie ruined!
>>223750145but>>223747956
>>223743424I'm ok with it. Feel bad when my watcher has to watch my hairy, obese ass jerk off for second or third time in a day while covered in Cheeto dust. I will personally make it a requirement that each watcher get monthly mental evals
>>223743424Then they better spray fungicide across the world, because there's mushrooms out there that don't kick in their poisons until a week or two in.
>>223750204Keanu could use his smartphone to stay in contact with HQ and coordinate his various ideas/actions, thereby removing all challenge and suspend
>>223743391Literally could not be made today
>>223750347He already had a phone talking to HQ...>>223748118
>>223750381Yeah if he had a smartphone he could just walk away
>>223750405Then he would get shot even faster
>>223750381This was already remade as a cell phone movie in 2004.
>>223750369oh wait....that's right!Having smartphones would change NOTHING >>223750381This wouldn't work today because Gen X would be too anxious to pick up the phone.
>>223750497But phone booths don't exist anymoreThis just couldn't be a movie
>>223743424The legality of flock camera footage is questionable at best. There are still court battles over whether traffic cameras are legally admissible for running red lights.
>>223750513>But phone booths don't exist anymorethey're still out there. actually it's more likely to work today because of the sheer oddity of seeing a working phone booth. It would draw more attention. 20 years ago you're more likely to just ignore a ringing phone booth because you got other shit to do.HOWEVER, millennials and Gen x would be too anxious to pick up a ringing phone so...
>>223750485nah he could order an Uber
>>223750512But what about gps, drones and satellite?
>>223750825What about them?
Not a movie but a TV show>The department now works remotely>Due to AI usage there's only the need for 2 of them>They interact entirely in Teams and the CEO works from home all the time
>A film built around all the funny shit that happens in an Airplane when 50 or so stereotypes collide, up to and including denigration of Muslims, Blacks, Jews and Women and involving violence towards all parties, day saved by 3 White men, and sexualising every woman in the filmAmericans and leftists would have a heart attack if this got a shot for shot remake
>>223751398>that old lady that spoke jiveKekakroo
>>223743762I bet he would have just talked with Denethor and Saruman with a wireless device to corrupt them!
>>223751345Damn, spot on
Jack get iPad
>>223751398>Americans and leftists would have a heart attackFa/tv/irgins still throw hissyfits over the coffee joke
>>223752984There would be no Internet or power just like how he couldn't watch TV
>>223753104Jack get generator
>>223753363Jack get Starlink
