This is a Friday, when I simply don't have TIME to write a proper SciFi plot, not even to remember a great writer, to read something. The weekend is fully packed, but I'll find Time to Noise... Time as a base tool for great SciFi is a stunning idea, but also a hard one. We don't fully understand, we can't control it, but we feel the quality, the use and the impression of it. That is why is a great playground for Science Fiction as well. Although next weekend will be the best time to rewatch the movie In Time (and I will) - because on the 1st November will be the 10th year of it's premier, but I'll watch this weekend, and hopefully I'll come with a longer article about the main idea. Time in the story is used as money... and the currency in a future society. The amount of Time everybody have from her/his life. Interesting concept and I'm curious if you see the same connection with crypto currencies ... because the time based value of a coin is much more visible than in the (also time based value) case of fiat money. Have you seen the movie? Did you enjoyed it? Are you watching as well this or next weekend? All the best for weekend, Noisers! #ScienceFiction

Oh, I love this movie! I've seen it twice so far and I disagree with the concept. I mean... having more time and live like an alive-dead, is not better than live less but literally. I found the concept very clever though and the actors were great as well!
I'm glad you liked it... and interesting your opinion... you're right, but there is plenty of "regular" stories with "real life" but now that you mentioned it... it can work in SciFi as well: as In Time... the value of currency can fluctuate (as crypto). Example: if you are living a full packed, great life, your time buying power is better than a boring time ... and so on. I have a concept with money/time that is why I noised about this movie and that is why it's on my tiny screen in a couple of minutes... so if all goes well ... We'll Noise about this later :D Have a great weekend! Oh, and your spinach pie got my attention... looks like a great deal. >D
Can't wait to read about it!!! As for my spinach pie, I uploaded the recipe in case someone wants to try it :)
