Types of brain fog:
- Brain is primordial sludge & you are drowning in it
- U are a ghost and nothing is real
- Mental equivalent of attempting to stream some high-res video game when all you have is dial-up
- The thing you want to articulate is *right there* but you're just scrabbling at it like a cat continually failing to catch the bird on the other side of the window
- The Void
According to director Dan Trachtenberg, Sarii’s presence in the film was heavily inspired by The Road Warrior, and “Mad” Max Rockatansky’s loyal dog companion from that film, known simply as “Dog.” So, giving Naru a dog was always part of the plan for Prey. What changed along the way was just how much Sarii would end up being in the film.
“We were trying to get Coco out of scenes but the opposite ended up being true, and we ended up including her more – even in some of the action set-pieces, because I just thought it’d be so fun,“ Trachtenberg said. “One of the great things about Road Warrior is the way Mad Max uses his doggy, so we wanted to have the same kind of fun in this movie as well.”
