The Matrix:Red Pill and Blue Pill

 Pro Blue Pill:

-to live in a state of fear or feel like you are a member of the losing side does not help an individual achieve a fulfilling life 

-I don’t believe the blue bill represents the ignorance of all just ignorance of some 

-when unplugged you see every lie and every truth

-in real life, you don’t know everything or nothing

-people in this state of ignorance can still, have power (old money, those in line for the throne, trust fund babies, etc.)

-if you don’t know about a problem who cares about solving it

While this only goes so far, I found it interesting to think about the ways in which we choose to ...

AI and Pinocchio Connections and Comparison

  Following the viewing and analysis of both the film,   AI,  and the original story,   Pinocchio,  one can connect the two plots by reevaluating their connection to the overall discussion of advancing technology and its display through the creation of a fictional “enchanted” or “robotic” boy. Through both narratives, the viewer follows as a “created” boy undergoes an extensive journey defining the aspects of their identity that bring them closer to the reality of being human.

The Adventures of Pinocchio , written in 1881by Carlo Collodi, tells the story of a poor carpenter longing to create a marionett...
