This kind of my beef with most SciFi movies. They always seem to paint an antagonistic relationship between man and machine when the reality will probably be something in the middle.


That's because science fiction movies are mostly not projecting a predicted future, they are projecting and exploring our fears and aspirations with the future.


I actually find it really funny that a lot of SciFi predicts a future where we are actually talented and intelligent enough to create a human-like, sentient being. The reality seems so distinctly far off from that- though I guess that is the point of fiction.
