Reply #8: Network sounds tame and anachronistic these days.

Not it's prophetic message of warning, that was spot on and has only been superseded because it has come fully and 100% TRUE and things are now so far past that it boggles the mind.

But the "Mao Tse Tung Hour"? That lame-ass couple of minutes of video robbery couldn't even get on E! TV's Talk Soup, it's so tame.

:rofl:

1976, that's when that was made. A mere 41 years ago. And in that time a new Hitler, a new Caesar has risen, and using the awesome powers of psychology, PR, advertising, and marketing, they have driven a nation clincally insane for extreme personl gain. Not unlike the old Hitler and Caesar (who had no conception of psychology in acient Rome, but his political instincts were prototypes of such and would have made his machinations very recognizable to Dick Cheney or Karl Rove, today)

Network details only one tiny battlefield here, and prophesied it's outcome to ten, no twelve decimal places.

Unfortunately.
