i've seen the future, and you aren't in it

Code 46 (2004): it is eternal sunshine + american beauty + lost in translation + gattaca. the movie is beautiful with amazing colors and lighting. i can't believe that this movie basically got passed up last year. the music sets the most perfect tones in every scene. its a movie where you have to really think what is going on, but it all makes sense. its nothing like thx. the movie is set in the future and it is the most realistic future i've ever seen in a movie. its not spaceships and brand new concept cars and technology that probably won't come for another hundred years. it isn't hard to believe that life might look and feel the way they attempt it to be. the acting isn't the greatest thing i've ever seen, but it was still very good. ending isn't the happiest, but that's the point. the world of the future isn't the world today and people have changed. if we can control memories, then certain things won't begin to matter as much. who cares if bush creates another war because we can just wipe our memory of it and king george will just be another great prez. its a sad future, but a great movie. buy it.

while we are on this negative note, i just want to say that i hope that after i die, i can look down on this shit hole and watch us destroy everything. i want to have front row seats when the human race dies out because we are so retarded. every other day there is a new report about the ice caps melting, temperature rising, glaciers retreating, animals dying, forest disappearing, and more and more landfills getting full of tvs and computers. of course i'm partly to blame myself, but it just sucks. you would think that the tsunami would be a wake up call to the world about how fragile we all are, yet the memory of it will come and go. and of course the only person in the world that can make a difference is too retarded to join the rest of the world in fixing the problem (bush and the kyoto treaty and every other environmentally friendly act in the world). so while he and his cabinet drown in oil, guess i'll go back to avoiding public transportation. oh well.
