Oh hi,

This week on FilmSack we get a full dose of ELYSIUM right to the face and boy does it burn like a space lord mother mother. Now, quick get the “down-here-on-earth-dystopic-future-factory-med-bot” to drag us to the nurse’s office where we can get some of those “rub-some-dirt-on-it-cause-you-already-dead” pills tossed at us with all the bedside manner you would expect from a sentient forklift in this 2013 Sci-Fi Fantasy starring our favorite Matt Damon in an exoskeleton performance now streaming on your ex-roommates Netflix account… wait… am I the hippo?

Anywho, Free healthcare for all! Now if you will excuse me… I have to not speak to you people any longer.

Randy, that palette shifted… could you go into the radioactive death furnace and you know… kind of… kick it.. what’s the worst that could happen. RANDY!! NOOOO.
