A-listers Ben Affleck and Matt Damon recently announced that they would be pooling their talents to produce a new television drama for the Sci-Fi Network titled “Incorporated.” The series, a futuristic thriller set in a shadowy world where corporations are imbued with seemingly unlimited power, will focus on the courageous efforts of one man to beat the system.
If this premise sounds somewhat familiar, you might be thinking of another Damon project called “Elysium,” a sci-fi thriller set in the shadowy futuristic world of Los Angeles, where a corporation with seemingly unlimited powers produces an array of weapons and murderous robots in an effort to keep millions of potential consumers in a constant state of crippling poverty. Elysium is the story of one working stiff’s courageous efforts to beat the system.
