I'm glad I didn't get abandoned

After watching the entire film with my girlfriend, the poet was ruthlessly exiled (shooting) without having a chance to speak from the very beginning, and the girlfriend was full of grievances and complaints about the teacher beside him.

Both of us studied art and even a little philosophical, so we had our own opinions on three of the thought experiments. It may be trivial and boring in the movie, but it is worth giving people an interesting discussion, that is, what kind of life should we live under certain constraints. (Life)

In the first experiment, there was pure rational choice, which can be said to be flat (gender, occupation). The only difference is that such a small democratic group will dislike and resist a unified authority (teacher), even if This authority acts as the necessary villain in their place to punish the remaining unselected. But it is not to say that it is an irrational choice, it is just a risk preference. (Betting there is no password or there is a password)

The second experiment was also based on rationality, but what was different from the last one was that it chose to coexist with the authority, and sacrificed personal emotions for the group’s ethnic interests, until it finally set off to resist.

The third experiment is the opposite of the first two, rather it discusses the role of literature, poetry, and art. And the poet is also the "useless" profession that is closest to the philosopher. They lived happily for a whole year, not just to get out of the shelter. If they didn't press the button of the nuclear bomb in the end, there may be a certain probability that it will continue (maybe very small, after all, I can't tell which grass is poisonous outside. It's not poisonous, I can't knock down the coconut.)

For the above three experiments. I have two thoughts. When seeing the first and second experiments of pure reason, it will naturally come to mind that Kant discusses the matter of pure reason, and this reason touches the "bottom line" or "principle" of human beings ", resulting in "emotional revolt".

The second is about morality. For the continuation of a group, whether the sexual behavior of different men to a woman is in line with the so-called morality, which has become the limitation of reason.

Well, even in order to continue human beings, under such a limited ultimate goal, it is finally found that reason does not play a decisive role, and can only become a one-dimensional or two-dimensional mechanical standard when judging a human being. Of course, we can say that we choose a compromise choice (this may also be rational), that is to say, we try to respect the will of the individual to make a choice, but this does not talk about the issue of pure rationality, nor is it purpose of this experiment.

And my girlfriend, who may have used "Animal Crossing" to tell me the answer to this thought experiment, the friend who used to repay quickly in the game, brush tarantulas, and meet the "target" has given up the game early, and she A year has passed unknowingly when I was playing with flowers and plants, building and placing buildings, and looking for new fun points.

    I started watching it with a serious and thoughtful attitude, and the plot continued to develop in the opposite direction. From the very beginning, the director did not intend to discuss philosophy with you in a civilized manner, only to prove that human nature is the key factor in making a decision. Everyone, including teachers, cannot escape selfish desires. This flip makes me feel very interesting, ignoring the plot bugs, this is at least a movie that keeps me entertained from beginning to end, it is very entertaining

    A very creative little piece, but it stops there. The philosophical logic and visual effects at the beginning are also very attractive, but after the first doomsday, you will not be able to bear the pretentiousness and romanticism of these philosophers' thinking and logic. There is nothing wrong with such a script. It just has nothing to excite people. After all, all of this is just on paper, and the final ending is so "profound" that I don't even bother to understand it. ★★

  • [In the third iteration, Petra waives her own eligibility, and now announces who receives the last remaining bunker slot]

    Petra: Bonnie, get inside.

    Bonnie: I'm a soldier, I know how to knock things down. You're an engineer, you know how to build things up. I'm not worth as much.

    Petra: My logic's fuzzier. In my apocalypse, everybody is worth as much as everybody else.

    Bonnie: I'm not letting you sacrifice yourself to save me.

    Petra: I won't let *you* sacrifice yourself to save me.

    Bonnie: Then we'll both go up in smoke, and you'll have wasted a slot for someone to live.

    [Petra then asks Chips instead of Bonnie for the last bunker slot]
