I found "Virtual Obsession" extremely disappointing, actually it
breaks down like this:

1st hour: okay, this might be cool.
2nd hour: disappointment, why did they do this?
3rd hour: absolute disgust, but I forced myself to watch the
ending.

The ending was completely predictable, I thought a better ending
(for our interests at least) would have had the guy in the
wheelchair uploading, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Cryonics (initially made to look good) was made to look
ridiculous....

The ludicrous science versus religion fight.....

How long do you think it will take to lose the "exploding frozen
head" meme.

Thank goodness extropians and nanotechnology were spared....
