I had never even heard about this movie, but it was very good! And the similarities in our history are just ...wow.. Definitely worth the watch! #thecreator#scifihorror

Ich mache es kurz. Ich war sehr auf den Film gespannt, fand ihn aber wenig spannend und mitreißend. Habe ihn gestern nach zwei Drittel abgebrochen. Zu viele Längen, zu wenig Spannung. #thecreator#sciencefcition#film
This is an excellent film. For an American production, they weren't afraid to depict the "evilness" or extremism of the Western world. It's a nod to the sins of the West during the Colonial era, which unfortunately continues to this very day.
No one country, no one regional power, should be given this much might and sway for it will eventually make them dictators and tyrants disguised as democracy, freedom, and human rights. Exactly what is happening in our world today.
The ones who pay are not the 1% or the politicians or the high ranking military officials. It is the 99% who suffer. They justify their actions as "peace" and "for the future of humanity" when in reality, they only created more reasons for hatred and wars.
Sure, this was about AI. Yes, it is fiction. However, we cannot deny the underlying message of the film. Anyone who denies it is lying to themselves or living in their own fantasy.
Again, a superb film. It is rare to see productions from the West with such a profound message behind it. Western productions are often about entertainment these days, and making tons of money. Not this one. It's all about the message.
Even though the artbook dedicated to The Creator (2023) was released a few days ago, I'd love to add a book containing all the drawings by Richard Anderson for True Love (the original title/codename of Gareth Edwards' film) to my library. #scifi#movie#thecreator#conceptart
#TheCreator is out on digital today. If you didn’t see it in theaters, carve out two hours tonight to watch this incredible film. Shot for only around $90 million U.S., looks leagues better than most $200+ million U.S. productions.
"Keeping my bias in check, I left the movie with this question: Why is it that Asians are often portrayed as either backward, evil, or both, which then gives the West a justification to treat us with blind inhumane violence?"
I'm pondering going to the theatre tomorrow to see #TheCreator, which I've heard is in the Avatar category of a nothing story but technically beautiful which makes it a good theatre experience.
But Sunday public transit sucks and it will probably be raining so I'm not eager to do the walking/waiting portions.
