This last weekend, I got myself some sushi and a nice dry sake then sat down and watched the first episode of Amazon's 'Electric Dreams'. This is their anthology series based on the writings of Philip K. Dick and their answer to Netflix's 'Black Mirror'. Based on that first episode, the series will have a lot in common with Mr. Dick: mind bending ideas that supersede the character and plot. But they will not be direct visualizations of his stories. Just like every other PKD story that's been filmed: they will be sidebands to his fundamental concept.
Granted, I've only seen one episode, 'Real Life', but as I've said before, I have a keyboard and access to the internet. Being semi-informed (at best) is what goes on out here, so I'm going to dive in to a review-slash-tear-down-slash-ramble on that one episode.
