Imagine the Future

During the debate the main argument of the blue side was that ignorance is bliss and some people are unable to know the real truth. To counter this, taking the blue pill is simply taking the easy way out and being selfish. Yes, some people may mentally not be able to handle the high stakes and mental obstacles of being a nurse, or special agent, or in the case of the movie jumping between the matrix and the real world, but if all those people do not believe then the chance of finding someone who can possibly unveil the real truth about the world is greatly reduced and all will continue living in a world where the pure cause of fear and anxiety is the unknown. By taking the red pill, there are also different levels, different levels of involvement, not everyone will have to be in the middle gory part of it. Someone can contribute one way or another and in order to advance anywhere, the power in numbers to make a change is critical. During the pandemic, although nurses If only half of th

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.

Philip K Dick Research:  Philip K Dick authored 44 novels and short stories which adaptations were made to film redefining science fiction. Blade Runner was based on Dick's story Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. Much of his science fiction can in a sense be attributed to his disconnect from reality. He had troubles with mental health and saw visions he claimed were paranormal experiences. He creatively was able to tell stories that included the internet, virtual reality, and facial recognition which now have evolved but at the time was unheard of, unthinkable. He involved driverless, and flying cars both of which are still considered futuristic for our society. Dick also had the idea that we are living in a simulation which gives rise to possibility of the reality of all his futuristic technology portrayed in his short stories.  Review:  While this was not one of my favorite movies, it was interesting to see how Ridley Scott was able to twist the audience into multiple perspect
