I recall this movie releasing and people mentioning it is just a Matrix-ripoff. However, this movie did a lot different; especially the introduction of gun-kata and the extreme discipline required. When Beethoven's music plays, it immediately is louder than anything and really makes you experience the music. It is so well done! It is one of my favorite movies and it was done just right. No sequal or prequal needed. If we're looking for a remake: just look outside and how devoid of color everything has become.

[@jeremysmith4620]

This movie is really something else. It is like an edgy teenager wrote a screen play the same week he saw the Matrix for the first time and also finished reading 1984. That may sound like I am saying that is a bad thing, but actually I'm not. Equilibrium is a really fun watch with absolutely bizarre, but wildly entertaining stunt choreography that manages to be so derivative of so many different influences that it comes off as unique. The plot and storytelling is so over the top and ham-fisted that it has a "so bad it's good" effect. The film needed to dive head first into these levels of complete ludicrousness because anything less would have made the movie unwatchable. Go watch Equilibrium because it is a ton of fun and let your inner edgy 15 year old ask, "What if we replace god, government, and media with gun-fu?"

[@TheTechAdmin]

Maybe it was someone diagnosed with psychopathy, and doesn't think the majority of people can't handle emotion responsibly.

[@mish375]

​@@TheTechAdminIt's strongly implied that Brandt is a sociopath. So while the Prozium helps rein in his impulses, it's obvious that he's okay with that world because he's incapable of empathy and attachment.

Happy the puppy survived!

[@bejingmao]

I fake being emotionless all the time, but I am very bad at it!

[@WadeWilson_]

I've known about this movie for a long time, but only just realized this If we were suppressed of all emotions, society would collapse. We would still be able to think and act according to our biology, but everything else would disappear. That includes our sense of wanting something. Want is just a lesser form of desire, which is an emotion. If we were incapable of wanting anything, we would only act on our primal base instincts which is, get food, get water and be protected from the elements. We would lose any love/connection with our infants and that would lead to the extinction of the human race. If parents aren't able to feel anything for their children, they will neglect to take care of them. If we feel no emotion, including desire or romance, nobody would procreate and have children in the first place. If there was some governing force that made us do that, it would be from a point of desire to control the situation or a desire to keep the peace, but with no emotion you can have no desire. So basically we're all dead in 60-70 years if we eliminated all emotion

[@Martin_Chua23]

no. The elimination of emotion presented is factored that the leader (head of the entire society) is able to feel emotion. So he can manipulate the desire for his empire to grow and wouldn't be affected by a halt. But the way they did it is wrong. Since they are clearly in a time of greater technological advancements they should've had a base transplant on every human effectively gaining complete control over the population. What they did in the movie is just hive mindset. This indicating that one presents said pill and says = good so rest use pill = obedient emotionless person then people copy and so on

[@Pfromm007]
