The Future According to Film
Posted by: | Comments
Could our future mirror one similar to the image above? A Guy Fawkes masked mass of citizens rebelling against an oppressive government? Graphic designer Michael Hobson created an inforgraphic putting on full display the way the future has been represented in films and some television over the years. Of course the creators are just manufacturing their own take on what the future could be like — but what if it were to all come true? The infographic features movies like I, Robot, 12 Monkeys, V for Vendetta, Terminator: Salvation, Minority Report, Serenity, Aliens, Robocop, Avatar, Equilibrium, and so much more. The progressing timeline seen after the jump doesn’t seem to bode well for us humans.

I recently saw Scott Pilgrim vs. The World for the second time and thought it was just as good as the first. My favorite thing the second time around had to be the catchy soundtrack filling my ears again. That is what I like to consider an easy iTunes sale. Anyway, I came across this hilarious video on Slashfilm last night and thought to share it with Movie Mash readers. The video is entitled Scott Pilgrim vs. The Matrix, and it was very cleverly edited by AEMOVIEGUY. The video is hilarious as the talented editor overlays the audio from the Pilgrim trailer on top of footage from The Matrix Trilogy. The use of the comic book elements with The Matrix video made me laugh quite a bit as Keanu Reeves’ character Neo assumes the role of Michael Cera’s Scott Pilgrim.

As Inception continues it’s phenomenal box-office run and impact on popular culture, fans of Christopher Nolan’s mind-bender are paying homage to the film through various forms of artistic expression. I’m sure many of you have scene Lego re-creations of movies or TV shows in the past, but I’ll bet you’ve never seen one that features zero-gravity. Wired received emails from a couple Inception fans who were so blown away by the film, that they re-created the famous zero-gravity/hallway fight scenes, that will surely become an iconic moment in cinema history, with Legos. Check out Inception: Lego-style after the break.
