I don't understand what you're getting at.. What are we supposed to discuss about it? Yeah, it was a great movie and had a very original concept, but was it neccesary to make a thread?

Even more impressive when you think about how this movie was made in 1998, two years before Survivor sparked the current obsession with reality TV.

I've seen the movie and I loved it! I thinks it's a perfect role for Jim Carrey to play.

i think it was amazing but i thought there may have been a better actor possible, as he(jim carey) made it less serious with the way he acts

The metaphysics of the movie are much older than reality Tv. It seems that about 90% of philosophy is in coming up with scenarios like this to illustrate an idea. I'm pretty sure the ideas in this movie and the idea of reality tv are independent, and the similarities coincidental.

It is a great movie, by the way. I really loved it, saw it when it first came out. It's an age-old question... what if they really are all out to get me? Or be entertained by me, in this case?

I've always wanted to see this movie, but whenever it's on TV, I miss it.
I saw parts of it, and the concept just really got me interested.
