    Technology and AI being the villian has been done well in numerous stories and environments. Hell, you've got Dune (pre-prequel), Fading Suns, 2001, and a few others, for instance.

    And honestly, I can't think of a movie where technology is cast as one of the primary heroes against villians--but I can list many where technology is one of the primary villians.

    As far as scrutiny being good and in fiction and all that--I agree. But when it appears in pure ****e, with ginormous plotholes, it's insulting to the debate, to the technology, and to the audience.

      It's also possible that writers and directors are getting back at years of flunking math and science class.

          I think we'll be better off when robots rule the world. I could do with an extended vacation.

            Maybe you should start a Fighter Drone Rights activist group.

              I actually heard that the evil plane turns good at the end. Or something like that. True or no?

                    Is it also true that they give the jet a funeral?

                    Is it as heartwrenching as it sounds?

                              Of course not. Why would I pay money to watch that schlock? I'm going by the previews.
