The Future

On Monday, after watching a bit of the film Blade Runner and seeing what the future might look like, it reminded me of the film Idiocracy. I had seen the movie last year and found it funny that we watched some of it this past Thursday. When I first saw the movie Idiocracy, I really thought it was a horrible movie. It made me feel like I was becoming stupider as I watched the film. Even though, I thought that movie was retarded, it still made me laugh and realize that this is not what our future would be like. We are a very smart society and we would never allow ourselves to turn into morons. We also won’t let machines do everything for us. Every time people think of the future, they think of flying cars and life like The Jetsons. However, now that it is 2008, I do not see flying cars and machines running everything coming soon. I also do not think in the future our society will be anything like the people in Idiocracy.  We are too smart to ever turn into that.
