Herein is a consideration of Transhumanism (by any other name) as promulgated by its real life proponents and how such a conceptualization has found its way into movies from, as the subtitled has it, normative fiction to predictive programming.Thus, this is no mere book of movie reviews but about the merging of reality and virtual reality.I wonder if we will make robots so much like men and men so much like robots that eventually we'll lose the distinction altogether and have a combined culture.This may be the best after all.Maybe humanity itself will die out as humanity and, sort of, melt into this machine culture-Isaac Asimov
