Feed

Cool premise: three quarters of the world have a "feed" implanted in their head. This provides entertainment as well as non-stop shopping opportunities. It is able to analyze every last detail of their interactions, life and purchasing habits to provide the perfect set of recommended purchases. (Based on a recent Wall Street Journal article on x+1, this may not be too far off.) However, it also has the downsides, with some people having their feed get "hacked" and forced to chant the desires of some eccentric.
Lame execution: He tries to provide 'contemporary teen' characters. They try to talk and act like reject early 2000s mallrats. It seemed like a good idea, but without a good story, it gets tiring. And the characters are fairly flat. Then the plot. The loser dude finds some girl on the moon. They become a couple. She is about to die (some feed issue that the corporations wont fix because she doesn't buy enough.) She becomes really attached to him. He just wants to drop her. Pretty lame.
