| chapset said: In recent memory I would go with ''In time'' they had a great premise but fuck it up so hard and ''Skyline'' was also very bad |
i just recently read that when Harlan Ellison heard about "in Time" he sued the makers for being in the credits, because the concept was very close to his short story "'Repent, Harlequin!' Said the Ticktockman"
...when he saw the movie he dropped everything and didn't want his name mentioned in it 
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
