Log # 5

2001: a space odyssey was one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen. Even though we saw it in class and some movies in school can be weird those movies were nothing compared to this. It was a strange movie because almost nothing in the beginning made sense. At first it was the primal point in our history. We had not fully evolved yet, and in one of the scenes it shows a monkey hitting a bunch of bones with another bone. Then later their was a group of monkeys beating up a monkey. Or how the one bone is turned into a spaceship. I guess that's just me when it comes to those scenes. But the one that is like the weirdest is the end after the light show Dave, the main character, is transported to another galaxy by the domino thing, then is in a house and it is someone in a room eating some food. You see him drop his fork he picks in up and Dave is in the bed dying, so on his death bed, and the one person eating is Dave. So Dave is watching himself die, and the domino thing is at the foot of the bed some creepy music comes on. Then you see a baby in a little bubble going toward Earth. Dave is the baby and he is the special child. But what makes him the special? Is it an evolutionary leap for man? Does the world want us to die? Was he the only one that survived? The world may never know, but this one site says that it was an evolutionary leap. And we need to make new tools to help with evolution. But now the real question is do we need tools to help us evolve or to destroy us all?
