Quote; “Have we been watching the same show? Youre weird, dude.”
Sure we have been watching the same show. The cylons try to wipeout the entire human race and continue to do so. They are relentless in this goal. Yet when the human race can secure its survival by ensuring the extinction of the cyclons they balk because “it would not be morally right to wipeout a sepcies.” Afterall, it was the humans that made the cyclons, thus what right would they have to defend themselves by seeking to destroy the cylons?
That message seems to fit right into the lefist view of the world, i.e. the terrorists attacked us on 9/11. But we made them terrorists. Thus, what right do we have to seek to destroy them?
Weird? Ok, if you say so. But I think it is more of a question of not trusting anything that Hollyweird puts out anymore. Always an agenda, always a damn message.
Furthermore, a race that can no longer distinguish between itself and an advanced line of sophisticated machines is teetering on the brink of suicide anyway.
This is the biggest problem with the series, although its only accessible to those familiar with some background in AI. Merely passing the Turing test does not endow a machine with human rights.
I guess you’d prefer the following type of story: One dimensional automatons unfailingly follow leaders’ orders for the glory of their people...
Sounds like North Korean propaganda film (not to mention boring as heck!).
Maybe you can get the part of Kim Jong Il (if you make your hair look *really* bad)
