    Question The Box

    Hey, Guys, there's a new movie coming out called "The Box". Its got Cameron Diaz and James Marsdon. The plot goes something like this, they receive a mysterious box with a button inside and some guy tells them if they press the button, they get a million dollars, but someone who they don't know somewhere in the world dies. It looks pretty okay. If you can't wait to see it, check out the Twilight Zone episode that its based on called "Button, Button", its on youtube or check out another short film called "Black Button", which is also pretty good.

    Anyway, I got to thinking, would you press the button?

    No.

    And if I did, I couldn't live with myself.

    I have a Catholic sense of guilt.




    On the other hand, everyone dies eventually...

    I would press it multiple times.

    There would probably be some twist to it like its someone you dont know, but someone really close to you knows. Or maybe it would be someone who is pretty important, and you would hear about it on TV.

    I'm actually pretty torn. Confronted with the money, perhaps, greed is a bitch. Then again, probably not.

    Actually this movie looks pretty cool. If I recall this was a book long ago.

    I'd press it, donate some money to save a village in Africa, and enjoy the fact that I had played God.

    I could have sworn I read this as a short story like 5 years ago. Coq is right here. Someone dies, and that person ends up being who ever presses it.

    It's based on a short story. The person you 'don't know' is your significant other, because how well do you really know them? And the movie looks like it's about aliens, for some reason, which is just weird, but who knows. Richard Kelly, if nothing else, makes interesting movies.

    And no, I wouldn't press the button. Don't want to get Affluenza. Earning my money keeps that at bay.

    if that's the case I'd press it a hundred times.

    cause after I get the money, I can get as many bitches as I want

    I may or may not see it, most likely wait until it comes out on DVD. I know I've seen this concept before, I guess I have seen the Twilight Zone episode it is based off of. Though I mean that was a LONG time ago.


    I generally figured if you pressed the button the last person who pressed the button dies. So your greed eventually catches up to you. However I don't know the ending. *shrug* That is how I would do it.

    thats a bit of a cop out if by 'someone you don't know' is someone you do know, just because of the whole 'how well do you really know them'

    sure, there is a point there, but i know my significant other a damn site more than someone i really do not know.

    What a twist!

    If you gave me a million dollars to shoot a guy I'd do it, fuck ya I'd push the button.


    Unless the person can be a family member or something. Is it completely random? Cause I like those odds
