Yet after watching it I have no idea what it about.
I bet it's about emotions and stuff.
And Turk.
So...I´ve read Transcendence absolutely sucks donkey balls. Anyone seen it yet? I was curious, but skeptic, and the reviews I´ve read have now made me think it really is gonna be bad. I´ll still see it, I just wanted to see Wally Pfiser´s first movie to be successful.
20% for Transcendence on Rotten Tomatoes
Well that's disappointing, it looked intriguing.
Some of the plot devices were a bit weak if you had any technology background. Still I thought it was a good movie that explores the possible benefits and downsides of sentient AI. Of course it's a typical story that's been told multiple times and anything that's not human is the bad guy. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
It's remarkable how Japanese and American fiction portray AI so differently in film.
America - Blade Runner, Terminator, Transcendence = EVIL AI
Japan - Ghost in the Shell - Cybernetics not only functional, but desirable
I completely forgot about this movie but apparently it's coming out this year!
This looks absolutely amazing:
2006 Me is pretty stoked for that. He was less familiar with what "screenplay by Frank Miller" portended.

hehe I get excited from that because it means it's pretty much lifted straight from the comics.
Yeah, I'm gonna see that with my brother and roommate I think. That looks like a good flick.
Another happy go lucky look at a future world.

Is it me, or is the premise of this movie just too dumb? I mean, the metaphor is quite obvious; social structure, now horizontally compartmentalized for your convenience! But on a train? really?
How are we supposed to relate (and therefore care) for characters that find themselves in a situation too different from our own (living on a train) or too abstract (seriously, living on a f*cking, train)?
On the other hand, John Hurt, which is always a delight to see perform.

I thought this was already released last year?
Might be the US release.
Definitely in. Looks fun.
Anything with Emily Blunt gets my movie ticket. I love her. She gets me.
Tom Cruise is starting to look too old for this type of movie, in my opinion.
Inception's Broooooooom really ruins every trailer out there...except Inception, so kuddos to Nolan, shame for everyone else. Come up with something new.
