“Where shall I go? The net is vast and infinite.â€
One of my favorite films of all time:
Thoughts
- Fantastic ideas on love and friendship (between Batou and the Major)— Batou has got “skin in the gameâ€(literally) when saving the life of the major.
- Excellent sumo deadlift form by the Major when trying to rip open the hatch of the spider tank. +1 to doing Sumo (instead of conventional) deadlifts.
- Unfortunate idea that the soul (your “ghostâ€) is somehow separate or separable or transferable. Perhaps this is what drives Silicon Valley thinking on trying to reach “immortality†by transcending our body.
- Beautiful melancholy mood, colors, cinematography.
- Truth: humans have (and always will be) trying to continually augment themselves with technology to give them an edge.
10/10
Masterpiece. Watch it now!
