Is that a high-budget Ex Machina? (Off-Topic)

Because it sure as hell sounds like a high-budget Ex Machina


It sounds like a crap version of Ex Machina. Or maybe it's just a shitty trailer :-p


I thought Ex Machina was a crap version of good Kubrick film.


And which Kubrick film would that be? I don't recall any ever tackling the same subject matter.


Um, all of them?


I'm having trouble following you. Remember, Ex-Machina is not about robots and AI. It is about how men view women, and how even decent men inevitably see women as the 'other'. Eyes Wide Shut sure wasn't about that.

I don't understand someone who knows film like you ostensibly do making an argument that someone's work can't be heavily influenced by a director unless they choose precisely the same subject matter that director chose.
