There
seem to be a lot of division in the galaxy in how each planet or sections of
the galaxy have their own rules reminds me of many countries like USA or China
that have many divided sections like states or province that each section of
the countries have their own different rules and culture even if they are from
the same land and race. There seems to be a lot of challenging the humans’ view
point of logic and the hierarchy of species like the mice who are consider by
human’s point of view a easy experiment but in this story we find that we the
humans have been played with by the very creatures we have underestimated
challenging the idea that humans are on top of the food chain and prime beings.
To me it seems like the hitchhikers are like foreign tourist exploring a very
eccentric and exotic places as backpackers or like hermits. This kinds of
reflects humans to still be ignorant and in the hands of higher beings that is
out of our control.
There
seems to be an imbalance of wealth and power very similar in human society of having
1 percent of a population to have the most control of wealth and like the
French revolution more than 80-90 people are poor when one group or in the
(Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) planet gets greedy for profit throwing the
balance off and destroying the entire system. Unnecessary need for
entertainment purpose because they are bored of being content.
The movie “Timer” on how humans rely
on technology and don’t rely on their own self to tell if they found love or
not that. That love or the perfect match of human emotion can be calculated
like on online site or the old tradition of the matchmaker or status symbols.
That human can’t trust himself or herself to find a suitable mate due to
artificial influence by advertisements of what is the ideal mate. Playing on
the female gender’s issues of being single for too long and not getting hitch
before the expiration date (women’s age). That just because it is a suitable
match may not match emotionally or naturally or if the timing and current
situation is inappropriate or inconvenient. This movie plays on fate, destiny
vs. chance in meeting. This movie has a very similar feel to another movie “Serendipity”
that plays on chance in meeting and fate. The movie “Timer” addresses the
question: will humans let them controlled themselves or let fate decide. Maybe
if the human feel like they have earned their love it becomes love rather have
an artificial unromantic way by following technology and therefore it doesn’t
seem real and forced. It’s like the conflict of logic rationality vs. emotions
feelings or intuition.
