This is correct. The Entire History of You is a
masterpiece. There's no way the feature length version of it will be nearly as good, because you know it's gonna be about secret societies and hidden conspiracies and the one man who can get to the bottom of it. Instead of a very small, very real, very human drama about incredibly well drawn characters living real lives.
White Bear is a fun ride with a very shocking twist but really does not hold up to any thought. It's not saying anything about society or anything, it's just a "here's a crazy and mysterious situation... AND AN UNEXPECTED RESOLUTION? Eh? Eh?"
Entire History of You
Be Right Back

National Anthem
White Bear

15 Million Merits
