i saw it once when i was young, and i can remember only bits and pieces. Like chrisrockbot...
It was generally just a poor idea all around. Since kubrick died, his film should've died with him.
It's not highly illogical, but for every alien race, in every book/film/etc to be like that, makes it boring in the end. The closest i can remember to an alien race being more "realistic" are the kree, with the feud between the pink and blue skins. Dune always seemed to go against that trope, but the whole saga is like, 12 books, each one of them 1k pages long, so i never found the time to read them.
As for our state, i don't really know what to think with the way the world is going, especially on the social issues. I can't say i'm liking all those weird manips of "this is what humans will look like in 100 years". I just caught a rundown of that new bill nye show, and it's worse than i expected, really. Like, it's bad. Worse than bad, actually. It's horrendous. The stuff 4chan joked about came true... It's pseudo-science for normies and redditors, coupled with sjw preaching.
I guess. But even in our world, while the west was inspired by the ancient greek/roman eras, the east had its own root civilizations and whatnot. It's possible that the engineers had just one grand race. We'll just have to wait and see, and hope this time the execution isn't as bad, 'cause the ideas are still good.
Ps: Marvel is doing a rebirth, right down to the one shot. No creators named, but that rumor that the a-listers are coming back broke around the same time, so i guess they'll get folks like hickman, remender and whatnot to return. Most of those guys don't have more than one or two books being publishing anyway, so they can squeeze some big two work (hickman pitched a legion book, but it was rejected for being too grim).
I NEVER said THAT
