Lefties are the book-burners. They aren’t gonna like this.
>>The written word is considered illegal and mass media is the sole source of information,
Sounds like MSM’s war on the internet.
None could replace Cyril Cusack. He was great in the “Spy Who Came in From the Cold” too.
We even have a freeper here with the leading character’s name. LOL
For later.

This will be very interesting. Have you ever read the book? It is a short read and one everyone should check out if you value freedom of thought and what can happen when everyone thinks the same way. Back in the 50’s this book envisioned Facebook and the intentional dumbing down of society. HOWEVER, the ending the book will have you laughing because the “saviors” of this future society aren’t anywhere close to reality. Yet, the producers of this show probably view things exactly the opposite as we do, in which case the “saviors” (or resistance) will make them feel good about themselves. Trump will be seen as the one who wants to burn books, even though the scrubbing of history is done almost exclusively by leftists.
Under-impressed by the trailer.
Ok, I suppose for a tease.
Hopefully, the next one will be better.
Does EVERYTHING have to be #BlackWashed?
The Brits did this in 1966 and the director was a Frog who made a great flic. I saw it when it was first run and loved it. HBO must be really hurting for creative capacity to fund a re-run like this.
A classic IMO...one of my favorites.A TV show? No thanks...you simply cannot remake a classic.
I made my rising 10th and 7th graders read this book last summer. We read it together and had some great discussions about it.
I hated the original movie.
Let me guess. The book burners will be Breitbart readers and Trump supporters.
