Final

Movie and Process:

For the final, my group and I chose the movie Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension. At first, we were struggling with finding a movie to do, but we somehow landed on this when thinking about movies from our childhood. 

The movie is based on a show about two brothers who try to make their summer last and have fun before going to school. In the movie, the brothers help out the villain of the show/movie by making a machine that transports them to another dimension. 

Even though the movie is fun and family-friendly, there is still a deep meaning behind it. It talks about growing up, youth, and what makes a person evil. There are parts of the movie where the characters talk about growing up in the dimension and being and acting like a kid.

The movie also displays science fiction features and things we talked about in class. This includes the three robotic laws and cyborgs. 

Conclusion and Thoughts: 

Overall, the movie displays many things that relate to the class. However, the movie also touches on humans and is a kind of philosophy. 

Even though the movie touches on technology and sci-fi elements, it talks about what it means to be a kid. It also talks about growing up and getting rid of that part of your life. Phineas-2 and Ferb-2 show life without that aspect of growing up, without fun and childlike behavior. It also talks about what makes a person evil. This is embodied in the character of Dr. Doof and his evil doppelganger in the other dimension. 

The movie combines science fiction with a reflection of humans. The movie is for kids and families, but it is a movie that can still be watched by everyone. People can relate to it and the message about childhood and personality.
