Every time someone says the shit's really hit the fan I think of that scene in Airplane. 11 year old me never laughed harder.

u/dwiyantobo 1d ago

It won best screenplay too. No dialogue in the entire film. We got warned pretty specifically

I really wanna agree with you, but unfortunately that’s how we got here.

Terminator is step one of The Matrix. 

The Matrix is what Skynet does with the unterminated humans. It milks them for energy after the war is over.

u/Mean-Career-6509 1d ago

Accurate

u/darrenislivid 23h ago

So the progression is probably Idiocracy > Terminator > The Matrix

u/RelativetoZero 22h ago

How does any Idiocracy invent the Skynet?

3

u/darrenislivid 21h ago

The same way AI is being developed now. When we get to the Idiocracy timeline, skynet doesn't need human intelligence anymore

I mean who do you think codes and maintains all the information tech and systems in Idiocracy? Sure as hell ain't the humans.

u/RelativetoZero 22h ago

I think its more about the entropy than the energy.

u/jutlandd 22h ago

Jeah but I only read Asimov and Ian m. Banks, so I know it will be good instead..

u/FollowingMinute95 1d ago

Terminator built it, Idiocracy raised it, Matrix runs it

u/jadedlonewolf89 1d ago

There’s this movie that I can’t remember the name of.
The plot is that the cast is trapped in a game and being killed off. The guy who escapes at the end, sees green lines when staring out at the city.
So he escaped one simulation, just to find out he’s in another.

Which is more or less how I feel about life, especially after looking into multiple religions that have way too many similarities.

u/blisstaker 1d ago

the thirteenth floor, except in that they purposely went into a simulation only to realize they were already in one

and so are we if we can do that, since simulation theory says that if living in a simulation is possible, it is almost certain you are in one

u/deadlycool27 1d ago

People saw these movies and instead of seeing them as a warning, they used them as manuals on what to do.

2

u/RelativetoZero 22h ago

Thats easier!

u/Mean-Career-6509 1d ago

I think we're on our way to elysium with a hint of 1984 and a dash of handmaid's tale. 

1

u/RelativetoZero 22h ago

Better than approaching "What do those words mean?" and "Is is is?" again.

u/TiaHatesSocials 1d ago

This is so so SO true. I keep referencing these three movies so much lately 😫

u/7thFleetTraveller 20h ago

It's a boring dystopia without at least sapient androids or flying cars. I'm not afraid of AI, I'm afraid of the people in control.

I'm trying to help you buddy.

The math is even wrong on the last one, it should be higher, you're posting about 500 times per day. You need to do something else with your life.

1

u/ilililliiliililiilil WARNING: RULE 1 21h ago

YOU need to touch some grass if you over here trying to calculate someone's daily karma.

-1

u/ExtendoArmCannon 20h ago

This dude is fudging everywhere, just trying to point out the bot-like nature of their posting speed, it's actually more sad if they are not a bot tbh.

and that calculation is a very hard simple division that I just ask google, it's literally 5 seconds.

1

u/ilililliiliililiilil WARNING: RULE 1 19h ago

My previous comment still stands, if you're trying to expose some bot for posting every 5 seconds what does that say about you? You're wasting your time mate, go do literally anything else.

0

u/ExtendoArmCannon 19h ago

They're posting every 5 minutes, if you could read, you've already known that.

If it's 'wasting my time' then literally every comment on reddit (including yours) is doing that too, I'm just adding to an initial picture whenever I see his dumb profile pic. Clearly minor digital editing is too much work for you.

I would very much prefer living in a boring solar punk world - rather than this hell hole that we have been warned about decades ahead.

Im not sure. Whimsigoth is an unanticipated mashup.

u/ilililliiliililiilil WARNING: RULE 1 15h ago

not sure what that is.

u/PAPAINOELNAOEXISTE 12h ago

It's a bad adaptation from a great comic book about anarchism.

It's bad because, instead of getting anarchy right, it sends a fascism message at the end.

V, for Vendetta.

(Really, read the comic book, it's one of the greatests ever)

1

u/ilililliiliililiilil WARNING: RULE 1 12h ago

has any movie gotten their respected comic book correct? I feel like thats always the first criticism regardless who it is.

2

u/PAPAINOELNAOEXISTE 12h ago

I mean, i don't really care about these type of things because, you know, it's a adaptation. Adapt, change it, make it better. But, changing the message from setting a population free from dictatorship through anarchy TO FASCISM is fucking mad for me. To the point that, fascist liders started using it as a symbol, just that fact alone...

Imagine, you expend years of your life to make a masterpiece that, could be a symbol of something good, empowering, and the oposite group gets hold of it because a adaptation that got the things wrong...

It's nothing less than maddening.

u/ilililliiliililiilil WARNING: RULE 1 12h ago

"Real-world systems named Skynet include China's massive AI facial recognition network, the UK’s secure military communication satellites, and an NSA data analytics program used for counterterrorism"

Looks as though they've already taken some direct inspiration

Just your regular Balkan stuff.
