Just Because
Just like book 1, this is a good book for young adults who like science fiction and romance. It might be a little boring for some adults.

MILA is on her own now but still doesn't know her place in the world. She is not only on the run from General Holland but also from Vita Obscura who both want to use her for their own gain. With all the running and the confusion going on inside her head, MILA has no clue who she can trust and is learning to rely on herself.

Minority Report- is a excellent movie. The action, the sci-fi, the future, the plot, the cast, etc. Also Steven Spilberg directs it, so thats a plus.

The plot: Based on a story by famed science fiction writer Philip K. Dick, "Minority Report" is an action-detective thriller set in Washington D.C. in 2054, where police utilize a psychic technology to arrest and convict murderers before they commit their crime. Tom Cruise plays the head of this Precrime unit and is himself accused of the future murder of a man he hasn't even met.

A excellent movie.

This is my first classic science fiction read, and I'm just confused. I am not sure whether that confusion will dissipate when I absorb the story over time, or whether I'm just going to stay confused! This story did not go in the direction i expected at all, and though that's not a bar thing by any means, it's frustrated me, as I kind of feel disoriented by where we got to. Saying all this, sometimes you read something and you understand is greatness, but you just don't think it works for you, or maybe I'm just a bit slow in understanding.

"What’s the most chilling last line in the cinema? How about “cranial drill”? Followed by an unforgettable sound effect. John Frankenheimer’s nightmarish adaptation of David Ely’s be-careful-what-you-wish-for novel has a weary, middle-aged businessman (John Randolph) buy out of his old life and be transformed into Rock Hudson, only to find that renewed youth isn’t satisfying. A unique, affecting, paranoid science-fiction film noir, with a perfectly cast Hudson doing his best-ever screen acting and the too-seldom-used Salome Jens an extraordinary presence as the girl on the beach."

The Twilight Zone
2019 | Drama, Fantasy, Horror

"The Twilight Zone. I had never watched it before, and it is so scary and so fantastic. My first advice would be to just go watch it (without) researching it, because the thrill of it is not knowing anything about the show, and then just watching it. It’s basically an anthology series where there’s a bunch of these weird stories, (in which) the world is just a little bit off. And it’s all these different, weird, crazy 30 minute episodes giving you portraits of the world in this science fiction scenario. At the same time, there’s always some crazy, fun twist."

Ahead of his time. A must for sci fi fans
If you like science fiction read this. This is part of our history, part of the beginning. So much other great literature sprang from and was inspired by this novel.
Detailed believable culture and characters that despite living in the dystopian world created by Huxley are relatable and real. Flawed humans trying to find meaning to their existence.
No spoilers...just read it.
