In this installment, I’ll be talking about the latest Black Mirror production, a choose-your-own-adventure movie by the name of Bandersnatch. The movie follows a young programmer, Stefan, who sets out to adapt a choose-your-own-adventure novel into a computer game. If you haven't seen the film, you should probably check it out prior to watching this video. It is definitely an experience. At the very least, I'll say that. Anyway, you can consider this your official spoiler warning.

As you might’ve guessed based on the title of this video, I have a few issues with Bandersnatch. Let's talk about it. You know, I don't like making videos in which the predominant activity is criticizing a work. It's just not in my temperament. And this is something I’d probably let go if it weren’t indicative of certain problems that increasingly seem to be endemic with respect to Black Mirror and storytelling in general. But it is, so here we are
