blog 24 . . .have to type it

Many movies thru out our history have came out confusing human reality, making us question life. Many portray different events , such as a game [eXistenZ] , A virtual job [Sleep Dealer] or just making us question if were in the matrix in general. What these three movies have in common is that there all about getting plugged in “penetrated” like Cynthia Freeland would say. Theese movies make us see life as easier in some way.

Social Class
As known today , there’s been a lot of issues considering the fact that there’s to many immigrants that they seem they want to get rid of. But if you realize in the movie existens the Americans still want their service. Sleep dealer was a movie based on . . . . . . . . .

blog 22 . . . . not done.

After watching both films I believe both of them were culturally relevant. In some sort of way they both had their points and differences. In many ways they confused the human reality and proven to us that we don’t know if this is all a game, virtual reality. Many reasons for this is because of the technology we have now. Although I’m pretty sure we aren’t in the matrix or in a virtual game the movies still make us question ourselves and life.
Mentioning my point of view, existenZ was more interesting but the matrix was more culturally relevant in some ways. As they show the pink goo that we are supposedly in, and show the difference between the virtual world and the “real one” In many kinds of way in the matrix its showed that it can be true. An example being how the world we live in now we wouldn’t know if there’s somebody controlling us, or a society of undercover detectives.
As Cynthia does mention I believe the matrix is more culturally relevant especially mentioning the fact that it seem kind of sexist. The world we live in is unfortunally sexist, and although the woman’s have more right then before it still seems as though the man is still in power..
A lot of more human beings would accept playing a “video” game rather than having to make a decision between the blue or the red pill, because people are too afraid of reality. Some would just rather stick to what they are use to even if it’s fake. In ExistenZ the director confused the human being mind. As Cynthia Freeland had mentioned “we feel unable to difference between reality and illusion”. The point of the game was to make it out alive. But after they were out they weren’t sure if the real was real or if they were still in the game. As both of the movies had a few of similarities they were basically saying the same.
Seeing the movie ExistenZ let me understand cynthia’s Freeland’s point of view. Of course the women would have more play in this movie since she was the one that invented the game. Just like her I actually enjoyed watching existenZ more than watching the matrix.

Penetrating Keanu

In “penetrating Keanu” Cynthia Freeland mentions a lot of good points about the matrix. I’m not a big fan of the matrix as it seem like everyone else is. And I actually looked forward to watching ExistenZ. She does mention a lot of the book being sexist, which happens to be somewhat true. As she mention trinity came out to be like one of them but instead was like “neo’s sidekick” like she mention and was again the male was the hero.
