Terrible film making fun of marxism, the initial concept was interesting, but they spent all of the film's time to revolve around 5-6 annoying main characters rather than environment. They had a "marxist world" eternity sold out (eternities are somehow scarce?) and all these other obnoxious ones that were being advertised, but it never really explained itself, instead it just focuses on one meaningless relationship to characters I could not care less about. The MC was asking the right questions in the beggining but then just gave up and made it all about his wife. WHY?
The ending was just a random "happily ever after" ending, I would've preferred if the wife got sent to the void for being so indecisive. The entire "afterlife" lobby or system is not very precise and appears to be operated entirely by people. They never bothered to explain how any of that works, just completely ignored this new concept the movie brought and revolves around.
In short what they presented was:
You die, you are in a giant waiting lobby, you get to choose your own eternity which is a world in which you spend eternal existence in but you only get to choose once, if you choose one and then try to get out or switch they will try to catch you and if they catch you they send you to an eternal void, eternities are scarce and some eternities are "sold out" or "defunct" because they became full or are "outdated" (i.e. they mentioned racist eternities and a "marxist world eternity" was also shown to be "sold out"), the MC's wife somehow manages to switch eternities without being caught and we're left to assume she lives forever in the new eternity, some people don't choose so they have to stay in the lobby and do jobs. NOTHING ELSE IS ELABORATED. They didn't give a fuck to even play with this concept a bit, they made it all about a cuckhold husband, a wife and her former husband. They had this insane concept and turned it into the cheesiest lamest romance story.

>>47086we can actually test it by medically killing people then bringing them back to life to see what they report.
>>47087That's making a lot of mechanical assumptions that would be even harder to figure out with meat brains. Information could flow one way but not the other, for example.
Doing that test with an AI might be easier though, since you could make it as simple as a house spider to mitigate noise.
>>47088>Information could flow one way but not the other, for example.but surely if souls are connected to brains, then re-activating the brain would receive the soul in the body to allow for the report.
>>47089Well that's what I'm saying: the body might be able to write to the soul, but not necessarily the other way around, or information might be uninterpretable and just come through as noise, since souls wouldn't necessarily need to be neural, so it'd be like converting AC to DC needs a different device than DC to AC.
I retract the assertion of it being untestable, but it'd be trying to reverse engineer a black box (possibly multiple) using another black box.
