I personally have never seen the movie Wall-E. But from what I've seen from this short clip it's set in the future. When I thought about the future I thought of technology advances, humans living with animals, and nature playing a hue role in playing a large role in peoples lives. Aside from the technology advances I was completely wrong. The world is moving into technology and away from nature.
This video shows overweight people sitting on chairs and having robots do everything for them. The people in this clip have a screen in front of their faces all day while passing holograms. The clothes they where are changed by robots and their food source is also delivered by a robot. They depend on technology for everything, which is what our society is moving into slowly but surely, I think it represents our world.
This video made me very sad, We are depending on technology for everything possible. Something that truly got to me from this video was the woman Wall-E interrupts to get to Eva. The screen is away from her face for a second and she sees all of the holograms and her eyes get wide, as if she had no idea it was there, This is how our society is; Unaware of whats actually happening in front of our eyes.
Who would've thought that I'd ever be doing my homework on a computer? This alone shows how much we depend on a piece of technology. What happens to someone who doesn't have access to a computer or laptop daily? Essentially they'll fail the class. This video makes me want to do a technology detox. Sadly I can't do that because in order to maintain good grades and stay in touch with humans I have to use technology. I wish I could show the planet this video and show them their destiny if we, as a whole, don't stop depending on technology for everything!
