I decided to venture out last night and saw the movie "The Island." It is a standard sub-reality sci-fi movie. It was pretty good IMO and didn't have anything that was annoying. In the genres of movies to have become popular in the past ten years the "sub-reality" movie is the most coolest. Sub-reality movies are where the main character's are in a different world and figure out how to deal with the fact that they are being played by their creator. The Matrix is the biggest one. But even a movie like The Truman Show counts as a sub-reality movie. There are some older ones. George Lucas THX 1138 was a sub-reality movie. So was Total Recall. A lot of those movies make you think, "what if I am in a sub-reality?" As a Christian we actually do believe we are in a sub-reality where heaven awaits us. I think those movies like to take some religious undertones to make it seem cool, except the human is always smarter than their creator. The movie also brought up cloning, as that is a fairly recent trend in pop culture. Although no one really hears much about cloning nowadays. There was Dolly the sheep and a slew of cloning movies and TV shows and then we all kinda forgot about it. Makes me think our food is coming from cloned animals, we just were never told. It takes me back to yesteryear when I was into cloning. I remember at the science fair when I was in 5th grade I shot for the stars. I actually bought a cloning kit with the intention of really cloning carrots. Unfortunately I made a vital mistake. I left all my petri dishes out in the sun and they burned up. The name of my science fair project that year was "The Carrot that wouldn't Clone." I am glad it didn't. I hate carrots... I probably would've had to eat it in the name of science.
