Futurama Season 3 Episode 11 "Insane in the Mainframe"

Fry is falsely arrested and detained in a Robot Insane Asylum where he has to battle with technology trying to get a hold of ANYONE who can help get him out.

This Short literally uses the exact premise with mateo/Fry going crazy trying to prove hes not supposed to be in this facility full of technology/robots

Its very black mirror... but... again... futurama did this exact thing 20 years ago.

5/10 its not a bad little short, just unoriginal.

I must hand it to the people involved in this short. They made afilm which is both humourous, - and it's in that,whchits so very frightening.

A young ma's on his way to work, sometime in the not too distant future, when he's alerted- on his mobile phone- that he's under arrest.

He hadn't done anything, but, it's due to the impersonlaisation of everything that he's locked up, and faces up,to 4u years.

The 'public defender's is nothing better than 'Clippy'from Microsoft Bob - and it's due to the failure(s) of all the voice controlled services where Matteo (the main character)fights his battle.

Ideally hope that this short leads to a good future for those involved- from direction, and all those behind the camera, to theterrifi performance.

Brilliant short which brings modern technology into the glaring light.

Many take tech for granted, without thinking what the ultimate outcome may be. And therin lies the problem.

Tech is slowly but surely, taking over intelligence. People are beginning to forget how to think for themselves.

Ironically, technology has become the electronic Dementia, and very few see this.

Short well made look at a potential real situation in near future. Well made, told a lot in the short time given and reminded me of a situation i have been in where looked like proving my innocence was impossible, and would have been if i was not extremely lucky having a witness i did not know i had lol.

First of i would like to say how happy I was so see a indi short film on HBOMAX. Not something I expected at all but after watching it I understand why they would put it on there. What an amazing short film! A simple idea executed very well in the time it had.

I don't want to give anything away because if you have HBOMAX it's only about 20 minutes long so definitely worth your time. But long story short it is a sci-fi in the style of black mirror about a possible Dystopian future.

When my wife and I both agree on a random movie like this I'm really glad I trust my gut on the description and put it on. Also thank you to the HBOMAX recommendation section because that's how I found it!
