Intro

 Hey, I'm Jenna. I am originally from Pennsylvania, about an hour outside of Philly. Although I don't have much free time, when I do, I enjoy working out, listening to music, going to the beach, and watching hockey or college football.  From this class, I expect to learn how to delve deeper and understand the specific thought process of movie and tv show directors/writers. Typically, I just watch movies and tv shows as a form of entertainment but this class will push me to analyze films on a new level. Despite missing the first class and introduction to what the class will be about, the second class already had me intrigued and excited about what's to come in the future!

Artificial Intelligence and Pinnochio

Artificial Intelligence is by far my favorite film to have watched so far. The character development of David or should I say flawed character development really adds a layer of complexity to the film. David was created so as to be one of the first robots to be able to exhibit and show the emotion of love. In doing so however, the programmers failed to develop his complexity of love to only having an unconditional love for his mother. He never reaches past his love for this mother which when threatened with the return of Martin caused him to become mischievous and begin acting in what could be perceived as violent manner. Which can almost be connected to Bladerunner  in that the replicants are also mere robots and turn to violence unwillingly. Pinnocchio although does not turn violent he still has the mischievous nature to him in that he runs away from home and disobeys his father. This highlights just one of the similarities between "Pinnochio"   and Artificial Intelligence....

Love Death & Robots (Three Robots Exit Strategies)

Although all the shorts were entertaining, the sequel to "Three Robots", "Exit Strategies", resonated with me the most. This episode was directed by Patrick Osborne who decided to make the sequel to the original "Three Robots", two seasons earlier because of all the love and attention the first episode received. When Patrick Osborne was interviewed, the key parts of the first episode he really enjoyed was how it was apolitical, "it kind of says that all humans are idiots, and we're all gonna just kill ourselves and kill each other". For a lot of people, myself included, I do not think humans really understand the harm they are doing to the planet until they watch this short film. The robots in the film attempt to understand people through the decades and the reason why and how humanity wiped itself out. The episode really tries to highlight that politics aside, although people can have their opinions, us living our daily lives with unbeknowns...
