The Day the Earth Stood Still Remake is About Global Warming
The first one was borne out of the cold war and nuclear détente. Klaatu came and was saying cease and desist with your violence. If you cant do it yourselves were going to do it. That was the film of that day, Reeves explained. The version I was just working on, instead of being man against man, its more about man against nature. My Klaatu says that if the Earth dies, you die. If you die, the earth survives. Im a friend to the earth.
While humanity still engages in a staggering number of international conflicts, the environmental message is one that, not only encompasses wars, and fights, and terrorism, but one that goes beyond constrictions to become a millennial message of what we are doing and who we are as a species, Reeves insisted. Were trying to reach beyond the idea of [just] environmentalism.
Still the best! Thanks for the tip on its release.
