    Not OP. Making guesses here…

    • Idiocracy = humanity becomes catastrophically stupid / institutions decay
    • The Matrix = humans are reduced to resources inside a machine-controlled system
    • Terminator = machines actively exterminate humanity

    Idiocracy X Matrix: People are dumb & happy, caused their own problems, so maybe Wall-E?

    Idiocracy X Terminator: Our stupidity puts us in a bad situation of creating our own demise. Dr. Strangelove perhaps?

    Matrix X Termiantor: Machine dominate humanity out of existence. The cross here feels shallow, like these films are pretty similar with regards to humans, machines, and the outcome. Oblivon (2013) kinda works? 9 could also work.

    Center: I dunno, Robocop? Systems failing, corporations suck, lethal machines. Honestly Black Mirror likely wins, but it’s too broad a series.
