In this episode, we explore the 1975 sci-fi film Rollerball through our SMART framework, focusing on its portrayal of a dystopian future where corporations control everything, including the brutal sport at the center of the story. We discuss the journey of Jonathan E., a superstar athlete caught in the deadly corporate-controlled sport, who struggles against a system designed to strip him of his identity and freedom. Our conversation delves into the film’s commentary on power, societal control, and the role of entertainment in pacifying the masses. We also connect these themes to relevant biblical passages, offering insights into the ethical and spiritual questions the movie raises. Whether you're a fan of classic films or interested in deep discussions about culture and theology, this episode is packed with engaging analysis.
