I’M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANY MORE! Today on What to Watch Before You Die, it’s Network a poignant satire, and an incredibly prescient look at the state of TV journalism in America – http://goo.gl/9AGRm

Network is a must-watch for anyone interested in the state of mass media. Even though it was made in the 70s, a lot of the issues are still at play today (or more so!) If you’re ready to get angry, or have a cleansing moment of clarity (on national airtime or otherwise)you should definitely check out Network. Put it on your list of movies to see before you die (or get replaced by a younger anchor despite your years of experience).

Have you seen Network? Did it shape your career ambitions as much as it did Mackenzie’s? If you could change one thing about journalism (TV or otherwise) what would it be? What other movies should we talk about on the show?

We want to hear from you – Let us know in the comments below!

Here on What to Watch Before You Die, we’re bringing you the full scoop on one great movie a week, letting you know what movies you need to see in your lifetime. If you think there’s one (or more) movies that should be on our must-see list, follow Mackenzie on Instagram, and let her know what you’d like to see with using the hashtag #W2WBUD.

It’s hard work, keeping up with all the great movies that are on everyone’s must-see lists. You know there are dozens (or hundreds) of flicks that might be considered “best of all time” by someone.

CineFix is here to help you out! We’ll be breaking down the classics old and new, letting you know what’s really essential and why. We’ll cover the great genre movies, the films that shaped a generation, and the movies that changed the face of the entertainment industry. As well as movies that are just plain awesome.

If you’ve read Ready Player One (and we strongly suggest you do), you’ll be excited to hear that it’s one step closer to being a movie. Zak Penn of X2 and the Avengers is taking a pass at the script! Yay! Subscribe: http://goo.gl/9AGRm

Zak Penn’s writing credits might have resulted in less than killer movies (X-Men: The Last Stand, The Incredible Hulk), but we’re not inclined to hold that against him, because his “Story By” credits are pretty cool: X2, The Avengers… The Last Action Hero (which Christina liked. She was 10, okay??). And a good handle on story is exactly what this complicated, mythology-heavy novel needs.

So, what do you think? Have you read the book, and are you excited for a movie? Or are you a “the book’s always better” purist? What challenges do you see in adapting this story to screen? Any other novels you’ve read that you want to see turned into movies?
