    Artificial Intelligence - Steven Spielberg ARGs mythology in one movie. Creepiest movie I’ve ever experienced (after 2001). Was slightly bored first time I saw it (“I want my mommy” “She doesn’t want you, that’s why she’s gotten rid of you. Ever heard of Hansel & Gretel?” “I want the fairy” “*sigh*” 20 000 trillion years later: “I want my mommy” “She’s dead and she still wouldn’t want you because you’re still a robot but… never mind let’s stick with the crazy aliens playing frankestein and the Pixar blue fairy”). Second time around, mostly horrified by everything in it. The kid, the bear, the sexbot, the crazy singing nannybot, the real son, the parents, crazy grieving dad / wannabe god, fucking disneyland statue that won’t age and then breaks thanks to creepio, ALIENS, wait no - über robots, ALIENS talking about space-time-and-whatnot in DNA and hair lock and dead bad mother coming back to life and probably not even her, and making a birthday cake and a mohawk and dying at the end, AGAIN. The voice-over. Thank you for that great fairy tale. I will definitely go to sleep now (and not fear my Sony Vaio laptop commanding me to love him). #postmodernismtales #killmeplease
