So I'm supposed to see this and think it's "just a movie" and not prophecy for mankind?
No. You’re obviously supposed to read the books.
>>222619469Only certain movies get greenlit.
>>222619469Mankind is fucked, we've destroyed ourselves through greed and vanity.
At some point humanity will make some kind of evolutionary leap to something else. Everyone has written about it. Everyone has made movies about it. We all know its going to happen, we can feel it. How it will happen is the question. Natural, technological or something else. We know its coming
>>222619503Weird.
>>222619515evolution isn't a ladder. it doesn't go anywhere.species evolve into a niche and then stay in that niche until they die out. no exceptions.
>>222619515This has already happened. Most of your ancestors were illiterate retards with no awareness of the world outside of their hometown.
>>222619601How would you know? You've likely only been alive for a couple decades. You have no idea what is possible
>>222619515Doubt evolution is determined by entertainment.
>>222619625Changes through natural evolution is too slow. They take million of years. We will fucked up the planet of kill ourselves in a big war before that happens.
>>222619672Nah, all the golden and silver age sci-fi writers were modern prophets. It's a mixed bag of all of that. For better and for worse.
>>222619504>weyou mean the top 1% of the population that regularly spits on everyone else and destroys the planet for profit
>>222619820Don't say anything if you aren't driving electric and using reusable bags.
>>222619601Unless you accidentally evolve into sapience sufficient to take the reins into your own hands. That’s what’s really implied in Clarke’s books.
>>222619874>Don't say anything if you aren't driving electric and using reusable bags.
>>222619978Yes, fail to take responsibility for your own choices. Blame rich people for everything. Spiteful mutant.
>>222620039Yes, fail to hold the rich accountable for ruining the world. Blame the broke plebs that are constantly lied to about everything. Bootlicking faggot.
No, you're supposed to laugh at the space baby like a low IQ who didn't pay attention to the movie and was on their phone waiting for unc cinema to end.>>222619504>WeSilence, nigger.
>>222619469He defo filmed the loon manding.
>>222619563In Footprints on the moon 1975, an ex-UN interpreter has a breakdown and her recurring nightmares is on a SET big enough to seem like the moon. Kinski is experimenting on her from the control room!
>>222619723A decontextualised element is that you somehow supposed to know in the opening frames in space that the satellites are all carrying nuclear weapons.But the truth is I much preferred 2010: The Year We Make Contact. Surely enough time has passed for a revisionist take on it.
>>222619601>>222619723who says it will happen naturally? we will probably do something like upload ourselves to a simulation or move to the 4th dimension
>>222619504On the same moment you typed this a hyena disemboweled a pregnant antelope somewhere in the savana
>>222619469Yeah we'll read newspapers in space
