What are some kinos about having a crippling addiction to the internet and passive media consumption, preferably those where the protagonist uses said media to stave off crippilnig depression.
Brokeback Mountain
Thriumph of the will
Paranoia Agent?
The Matrix

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (Ultimate Edition)
the closest thing I can come up with is All About Lily Chou Chou. Which isn't really about internet addiction, but the two main characters do use it as a coping mechanism and sanctuary from the real world.

it'll be cool when we start getting longevity data on the effect the internet has had psychologically on an entire generation. Some of the faggots on this site dont even remember life pre-internet.
the human mind wasn't developed capable of comprehending scope and scale. the internet has given every asshole a platform and everyone is going crazy because our brain is designed to seek out and shun antisocial behavior, and all we remember every day from the internet are the assholes of the day, without being able to keep track of the reality that sensational assholes are literally one in a million. When we see some edgy MRA faggot or some hysterical feminist we dont think "that person is crazy" we think "that person's group is crazy" and all the hiveminds are aflurry.
the humanity bubble is going to pop. Sentient apes where a mistake.

The zero theorem comes to mind. It's an often overlooked Terry Gilliam movie.

overlooked for a reason, it's not his best and an absolute mediocre film imo, despite the good performance by Cristoph Waltz
the story is nuts, even by Gilliam's standards
Is there any movie or show that portrays media consumption as a good thing? It seems hypocritical if they keep churning "tv is bad" messages yet there are no counterpoints to this overrated opinion.
