It does, but has there ever been a movie that successfully portrayed a compelling drama that takes place entirely on a computer monitor? It's hard to even imagine. It's why I think the novel is still relevant in our age because all the great stories that unfold on a screen can't be acted out on a sound stage.


Searching [0] gets you halfway there: its about a compelling drama which takes place mostly in real life, but is portrayed entirely on a computer monitor.

I liked "How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast)", first season.

Generally speaking, you can use the xz story as a background for every type of movie set in the present, an eg.: think about the God's Eye story from the Fast & Furious series. Theoretically, the xz rce can give you more or less the same power God's Eys gives you in the film.
