Now that you said, reminds me too, this can be a plot hole as well, from what i remember, they said that the memory was transfered to the program, not the conscience, so they would be in some kind of infinity loop, that is not what the episode shows.

I just posed on another thread - Playtest really reminded me of David Cronenberg's eXistenZ. in eXistenZ, there's a group of people testing out a new virtual reality game in which they have to have ports implanted in their body to play. They go into another virtual reality world inside the game and the line between where the virtual world ends and the real world begins gets blurred.

The Fifth Wave? awful movie. all i remember was it was just like all the other teen movies, but it was like they ran out of money and just put Hitgirl in the woods for an entire act of the movie. i watched it less than 2 months ago and remember basically nothing.

Nosedive is just like the Meow Meow Beans episode of Community, a sitcom that used to be on NBC. The episode was officially called "App developments and condiments" and aired March 6, 2014. The script was credited to Rashida Jones and Michael Schur, both who worked at NBC (Parks and Rec) around the same years as Dan Harmon and are very aware of his tv show. I'm sure Charlie Booker is also aware of the premise invented by Dan Harmon and his writing staff several years before Black Mirror Season 3 began production. Nosedive was amazing but not original by far.

Men Against Fire is almost the same as Outer Limits - Hearts and Minds. A group of soldiers has to take injections with supposed defense against alien virus. They're going to secure a mine where aliens are mining vital resource. Of course the aliens are just human employees of another company faction after skipping injection one soldier finds out. In the end they're all killed by the enemy soldiers. It turns out that the enemies have injection of their own and see them back as aliens as well.

Playtest is very similar to Brainscan (1994) but takes it one twist further.
