DIRTYBENNY WRITES

I don't think the natalist made any inroads.

Cigarette smoking is one of the many things that have changed radically during my lifetime. From the comments More likely cell phones killed Rock than cigarettes.

 

SEVEN years after the release of this film, it has come on my radar repeatedly. This is from someone who refuses to watch any movie for any reason. Many elements of this film embody my model of our predicament.  The first video listed below is perhaps my favorite in highlighting pertinent elements of the film. There is an alien parasite in the film who looks human but studies humans in order to imitate them.  It does this poorly.   I have done many posts about "THEY just can''t fake being human". https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2026/09/lady-gaga-welcomes-first-baby-with.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2026/02/they-just-cant-fake-being-humanthe.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2025/06/the-least-of-what-it-does-is-produce.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2024/04/they-cant-fake-being-humancontinued.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2025/12/the-kirk-entitythe-grieving-continues.html https://dirtybennywrites.blogspot.com/2023/...
