Pitch Meeting
The Electric State
2025 • E12 Mar 20, 2025 5m
Netflix has become a powerhouse at churning out content over the past decade, and their latest blockbuster hit has all the ingredients to make a massive hit: big-name stars and directors, one of the biggest budgets ever, and… well that’s enough according to the algorithm!
The Electric State does raise some questions. Like why did they even base this on a graphic novel if they were just going to do their own thing anyway? Why didn’t the humans just deactivate all the robots if they didn’t believe they were alive anyway? How are the needs to sleep and to recharge that much different from each other? Did Mr. Peanut just sign a treaty with Bill Clinton?
