First off, a big shoutout to my creepers—love those little guys. Just a bunch of weird, shuffling lil' dudes, lurking in the shadows like they’ve got secrets but no real game plan. They kinda reminded me of the Ohms from Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (1984)—if the Ohms were just a little more confused and liberatingly unemployed.✊🏾With that out of the way, this was a sharp, existential sci-fi satire, peeling back the layers of corporate exploitation with the…
