Watch and Learn.

I just can't wait more for the DVDrip of Transformers 2 to come out, so I've decided to break the law of my own by downloading the Cam copy and watched it (I hate to spend on movies ticket). Then something came cross my mind.

I watched Terminator before and it brings me to this conclusion. Both of Transformers and Terminator are totally surreal. Unreal, and more likely something that are not exist in real world that we are living in. I don't even like these kind of movies because I do like something that is related to real life, less usage of CGI, and most of all, MAKE SENSE. But, two months holiday is forcing me to download any kind of movies available on the torrent websites, making my life miserable by staring the monitor almost half of my day (the other half I spend with sleeping). The differences that I've learned from this two movies :

Transformers - Created for entertainment, BOGUS, and something that you can't learn any values in it (for me). There will be no such thing as an Audi R8 or a Ford Mustang GT can change into a super sleek autobots like those shits in the movie (I'm a big fan of R8 and it does hurt me to see it sliced into pieces). There is no such robot in this world can be like those Transformers, even the Japanese can only create a robot who can clean the whole house in the whole day with no feelings at all (My mom will kick the heck out of the thing if she has one at home). But, those autobots just dropped off from some other planet of nowhere, and somehow is not an alien but a robot? When I watched Transformers, every scene will have me throw words like - bogus, ridiculous, nonsense and absurd. It is like not making any sense to me. I can accept the first movie of Transformers, but the second one seems like not making any sense anymore. If I go to cinema just to have some fun (I bet everyone does), and not to have my mind think of logic and ironically try not to get it linked to my feelings, it is going to be cool. Have fun, be happy with it. When I get out of the cinema, I'll smile for the satisfaction after paying couple dollars for the seat and the popcorn.

Terminator - Created for conciousness. I like it. The emotion, the feeling, is never been such a sensation or joy of happiness, but it does bring something deep from the center of nerves, of - fear, cold, endless hope, hatred and revenge (this is the real 'revenge') and redemption . Good choice for the title - SALVATION. It is too, does not making any sense but (still, the robo-sounds can make me pee in my pants if it is real), it makes me think - back far in the past or in the future. This is what we got, results of our behavior in the present, world when we keep on chasing to do something far beyond God's will, and against mother nature. We are the one who tries to destroy the world, which we believe in making the world a better place in disguise. It might be happening in the future, when greed, cruelty, and people no longer care for each other, creating something to get what they want and consequently creating own ferocious hostiles. I respect the values in the movies (I like the HK too). Well, it is well created story for my opinion (I used to play SKYNET, a game based on DOS platform and was the best in its class of the early years of DOS system of graphic game). I was like eight at that time, but I used to kill lots of LP600 (but never met any of its kind that has Arnold's face). I flied the HK of course, and even disarmed a nuclear bomb in the SKYNET Central. It gave a big impact to my life after all, which when I was nine I already had this awareness of saving the mother nature from the global warming (save the polar bear! They are cute and white - when I was nine I used to adore the polar bear from the TV ads of Fresh 'n' White). Yes, the point is, I've learned to understand the consequences of human greed and selffishness to the world when my age is still countable with fingers on my both hands. Not just tried to like the 'cool Optimus Prime' (the name itself sounds bad already). Psst, I'm not a hater, but a realist!

Sci-Fi movies might be good for me too - if I can learn moral values and give me the conciousness on something. Learn to love - watch A Walk to Remember. Learn to assasinate - watch Bourne's siries. Learn to be a drug dealer - classic one, Blow. Learn to rob - Ocean's siries. Cried to see a polar bear struggles to live - Earth (documentary). To feel innocent - Wall-E. I do watch and learn. You got yours?
