Reviewed: Netflix's "Love Death + Robots"
Here's another cross-posting from my cultural blog, The Order of the Inn of Ye Bench & Bar. Here, I finally got around to reviewing Netflix's "Love Death + Robots." Despite Netflix proudly slapping a "mature" label on it, and despite the endless army of media lemmings aping that description, the truth is that LDR is profoundly juvenile in the fashion of much of contemporary culture. Having said that, there were four episodes that I think were memorable and worthy of a thinking person's time.

"Whenever I watch some Netflix original production, I am reminded of the words of Omar Bradley who chided the world for being one of "nuclear giants and ethical infants." Much the same is going on in the world of contemporary entertainment where CGI giants and narrative midgets abound. Tim Miller and David Fincher's Love Death + Robots is a perfect example. While each of the eighteen episodes are brought to spectacular life with some truly astounding animation, the vast majority of the narratives are rather, well, juvenile."
