The end (of history?)


As stated in the previous post, I have a problem with a movie being marketed to children asserting that much of what is good about humanity will just wither away due to laziness and then resolving the problem with a couple of cute robots. This eye-catching post by James Poulos points out that the closing credits of Wall-E posit a slightly happier version of human history after the Axiom returns to Earth. (The American Scene)
