On page 325, that author brings up the example of a particular scene in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. In the scene, a scientist destroys a technologically groundbreaking microchip because it will eventually cause the destruction of man.

In Frankenstein, Nature and science have brought a significant impact onto the characters. The progression of science combined with nature leads to a debacle. With this, there are various effects and roles shown through nature and science. Mary Shelley expresses her message about this. In her times, she was part of the transition from the Enlightenment to the Romanticist age and this led her to composing a story with nature and science competing against each other. From the struggles between the…

or technology driven dystopias, but sci-fi films, even within the same subgenre do not always propose similar ideals.

Blade Runner and Terminator 2: Judgement Day both carry the android/cyborg device which are thematically the same, yet deliver different messages to the audience. Both films use a dystopic futuristic setting where the antagonist is sentient machine who are displayed as…

analyzing the category of science fiction as a whole, how can one really classify something as science fiction? Throughout an analysis of the film Resident Evil (2002), in relation to two other science fiction films titled Jurassic Park (1993) and The Terminator (1984), this will be shown and compared in terms of the composite elements that arise in all of these films that are considered to be science fiction as well. Even though these films are all about 9 years apart in production,…

That's something else... A terminator seed is a seed that does not produce fertile seeds. This means that anyone who buys seeds must buy the same amount the next year. If it were to be released to farmers in third-world countries every year their crops would have to be sold to get more seeds -- some of which always fail -- and every year the profits of the farm diminish until they are nil. Monsanto claims that terminator seeds would have never been put into production, but…

The binding factor in nearly all kinds of power plants is how the power is actually produced: something heats water, turning it into steam, which then turns a turbine that generates electricity. The differentiating factor in the differents forms of power plants is how that water is heated. Nuclear plants fancy splitting atoms, coal plants burn coal, and geothermal plants skip the middle man, let Earth do the heating, and simply reap the benefits. Below the surface of Earth is a layer of rock so…
