You need to the read this book:

Checkout the improvement in the box office between the first and second movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...ce_improvement It's #5. Very good. What's amazing to me is I recently watched it and it loooked less fake than some of the recent movies I've seen. I"m not lying, some of these movies use CGI so much it's completely inappropriate. What's astonishing is movies from 60 years ago can get the effects balance right. Somebody needs to send hte memo. I couldn't stomach Avatar, for example. The CGI made my eyes hurt. The movie sucked anyway. ****** me off too because I like Sigourney Weaver and she deserved a better chance than that crap.

I've heard the argument that humanity peaked the moment we started farming. That is, the moment we started being civilized. Our whole worldview is twisted. We pass it on from generation to generation. I could pick any random topic to start spewing about and you'd all think (or know) I was crazy. Here, watch this Michael Tsarion talk instead. If you take notes you'll have a reading list for the next decade. Quote:

sounds like a philosophy 101 course taught by a TA mixed with a healthy dose of tin-foil hats. He contradicted himself a fair bit in the umwelt-mitwelt-eigenwelt section.. I don't know who falls for these nuts.

It is a six hour talk with about an hour of defining terms. Perhaps it sounds like philosophy 101 because he uses big words, but it is not. Precisely what contradictions did you notice making a 'fair bit'?
Though it is not the topic of the talk, he touches on how our collective worldview is malformed throughout the whole six hours. I'm not trying to give everyone philosophy 101. We're talking about things going downhill, and I'm saying that we've always been down the hill. It doesn't matter as much though because the concern now is the environment. | ||
