Why Does Hollywood Hate The Future?
A few weeks ago, Chris Dixon tweeted something thought-provoking:What were the last Hollywood movies you saw about technology & the future that were optimistic? They seem to be systematically dystopian.I happened to be sitting in a movie theater waiting for Iron Man 3 to start, so I tried to come up with a good counter-example. Its a lot harder than I thought it would be. Then the pre-movie trailers starting playing. The new Will Smith (and son) flick, After Earth: dystopia. The new Guillermo del Toro flick, Pacific Rim: dystopia. Even the new Superman flick, Man of Steel, could be classified as a technological dystopia (more below).
