I agree with your point on the mysticism-technology, perhaps science has
replaced mysticism as our new mythology. And his connection to a TOTALLY
ALIEN COMPUTER SYSTEM, I live on Earth, speak English, and Have a 56000K
connection to the net and I can't get connected that quick. I believe it
was extremely far fetched but I enjoyed it. I mean was Jurrasic Park that
believable?
My main qualm with the film is that it is perpetuating the core
reason that a variety of humans are racist and bigoted, if it is different,
kill it. Sure in the movie the aliens were "BAD" but why are they always
bad? I once saw an episode of "The Outer Limits" on Showtime and We
attacked the aliens cause they blew up one of our sattelites, when they
were using a direct laser link to the sattelite, they transmitted a video
of them saying something, and we freaked as a goverment. We launched and
they wasted us and the formerUSSR, their Message "We want to be friends"...
