Today my computer class has
to write about the movie 2001 A Space Odyssey, in the first scene we have to
guess why the monkeys are, freaking out and what the space ship is. In this
scene there are like 15 or 20 monkeys flipping out, for no reason.
When the
monkeys wake up they find a tall blackish/bluish stone thing. They run around
freaking out and then one by one they go up and touch it. I think it was a
stone wall type of thing, the reason I don’t know.
There didn’t seem to be a particular reason why the
monkeys were freaking out. But the movie is about evolution so; the stone thing
could have had something to do with evolution. I don’t believe in evolution. There appeared to be one main character which
was one of the monkeys in the short bit of film. The monkeys in the movie
appeared to be communicating with each other but not by speaking, I think they were
using actions with their body’s to communicate. Examples of this are: they were
beating on their chests, screaming with different tones and pitches, and
beating their hands and feet.
Then out
of nowhere one monkey, who appeared to be the main character, went over to the
skeletons of the other apes and picked up a bone and began to beat and break
the skulls and other bones of skeletons. This appeared to be out of rage for
some reason. Maybe because some or all of the other monkeys died and he’s mad
about it.
Like I said
somewhere above I do not believe in evolution, but this is a good video,
although I have never seen the movie I would say it is probably good. I am
going to watch the movie to understand it totally you should to.
