Just watched it for the second time. First thing that came to mind is that this will happen sometime down the road based on privatized prisons. As soon as someone can figure out how to make it work where it will pacify the public outrage using the entertainment value as the compromise. Hell, half of the population today would get off on this concept.
Secondly, for some reason it made me think about the killer whales at Seaworld here in San Diego. Paraded out each day to "perform" unnaturally just to amuse the public and make someone profit.
