Imagine the Future

I had never heard of AI before coming to the class. So when I started to watch it, I did not know what to expect. I found myself feeling emotional, especially toward the end of the movie. The movie is about an AI that gets sent to a family who is dealing with a tragedy. Their only son was put in a coma of some sorts because of an illness. The family become used to the AI, named David, and was about to officially become a part of their family. However, their son wakes up and tries to get David out of the picture. When David escapes being destroyed, the movie is about a journey of finding the fairy to turn him into a really boy. The movie shows David on an adventure with Teddy the robotic teddy bear and a robotic gigolo named Joe.  The movie has many things that reflects the story of Pinocchio and even references it during the movie. The use of this famous story shows that "nothing new under the sun". Not just that, but it was also based off of a short story called  “Supertoys...

 I feel like I have seen the Fifth Element many times, but I also feel like I have never seen it. When the movie was beginning, I was actually confused because I do not remember it at all. Once class ended, I texted my friend (who loves the movie) that I realized the only thing I remember from the movie was Chris Tucker. Tucker played Ruby Rhod, a flamboyant character in both his outfits and actions. Now looking back, I only Tucker in the animal print bodysuit with the weird hair dancing and prancing around the spacecraft with an orange hair girl and Bruce Willis. So, it felt like I was watching the movie for the first time.  Another moment in the movie that I remember is the scene with the alien opera singer. The diva was named Plavalaguna and was played y Inva Mula, an Albanian soprano. The scene and the song in it are famous for being hard to recreate. When you look up the scene, the articles that pop up are about how "impossible" it is to sing and the few opera singers wh...

When I first watched Interstellar, I fell asleep. It was an almost three-hour movie and I started to watch it around 10 pm. It was the same situation as when I watched 2001 for the first time. I told my dad I had never seen it and made me watch it that night. However, we both fell asleep when it started. I did wake up very confused because Matthew McConaughey was flying around a bookshelf yelling at a little to not "let him go". So, when I watched it again after that, it made more sense. I found myself very emotional by the movie because of its central theme: relationships. The relationships that are emphasized are father and daughter, and human and home. In this case, the home is Earth.  This movie deals with how humans should treat their home with more respect and care more about it since it is hard to find a place exactly like it. We must take really good care of it and not take advantage of it. A thing that drew me to the movie and made me love it was the fact it was scie...

Ready Player One  I've seen this movie many times before watching in class. My dad brought me to see it with him and I remember enjoying it a lot. One of the main reasons I really enjoyed it was all of the pop culture reference. My parents made me watch and listen to stuff they grew up with. So, the songs and pop culture references were not only loved by my dad, but also by me.  A thing I forgot about the movie was the reference and reflection of Parzival. Parzival was an Autherian hero who went on another quest for the Holy grail after failing to get it for the first time. Obviously, the movie and Wade reflect the story of Parzival. Wade has been trying to win the prized Egg. He kept trying to achieve the games in order to get closer to the Egg, but he kept failing.  Just like his literature counterpart, Wade eventually achieves the his holy grail, or the "egg".  This element adds on to the many references in the movie and book.  The book was written by Ernest ...
