⏳🎬 MERCY
Details
🧑⚖️ If the future means swapping out judges for hot AI, well, let’s just say we might end up screwed in more ways than one!
👋 Hey guys so if the future means we get judged by gorgeous AI instead of grumpy old judges, we might be in for some hot trouble! In other words, Mercy might just prove that getting a fair trial in the near future is going to come with a whole new level of eye candy and probably a lot more confusion!”
So just to fill you in: the movie is directed by Timur Bekmambetov—yep, the guy behind Wanted and Night Watch—and it’s set in a futuristic Los Angeles. The gist is that Chris Pratt’s character has to prove his innocence to an AI judge, played by Rebecca Ferguson. If you’re into a mix of sci-fi twists and a little courtroom drama, this one sounds like a lot of fun.
We’re keeping this one laid-back and easygoing—think of it as a chilled movie hangout. We’ll meet for pre-film drinks at Victory House Wine Bar, then head to Cineworld, Screen 2. I’ll be in seat A7, but pick whatever seat you prefer. After the film, we’ll gather for a Letterboxd review!
For now, just keep in mind that swapping out human judges for AI is still more sci-fi than reality—at least for now—thanks to a whole bunch of ethical puzzles. But hey, it could still happen someday soon, so be very afraid… or at least very amused! LOL.
See you guys at the meet up!
