So much of this makes no sense. How the fuck is lord of the flies a cross section between 1984, animal farm and faremheight 451, which also makes it Logan's run if you add Animal Farm to Logans Run? I've read/seen all of these and there isn't any commonality here

Throw in some Fahrenheit 451 and you get the Matrix.

My Thesis on Literature that I live by is that you can bend anything to any interpretation but the further your take strays from authorial intent the more you need to justify that take and this can be taken to absurd extremes if you are really good at bullshitting. This venn diagram proved me wrong
