What inspires you?
When you were a kid, what inspired you?
What you are now, what inspires you?
What you are later, what do you think will inspire you?
I remember, as a child, I was introduced into classical music mostly.
Tchaikovsky's 1812 and Beethoven's 5th was about the first classical experience I can remember where I made an effort to remember.
I seem to remember growing up on a lot more access to Beethoven. Aside from the 5th and 9th symphonies, there was more.
There was the Emperor's, the random numbers outside the norm.
1812 stood out a lot, because it was the only Tchaikovsky I really cared to remember.
Beethoven had a lot, he had too much.
I couldn't remember which ones I heard first from his symphonies. But, I know if it wasn't 5 and 9, it was very close to those ones.
Almost as if I was presented to them in succession.
It's an odd thing to look that far back into the past, considering I don't remember that much.
But, the first sound of music, I remember.
Much like Christian Bale's character in "Equilibrium".
It was nearly as tragic as his character. The tear falling due to the lack of culture for so many years.
Granted, I was just over 10 years old, I may have been introduced to Beethoven or Bach or even Tchaikovsky well before I was 10, but my memory is poor.
My memory would only allow me to assign an abritrary number.
Which, in reality, is less-than-inspiring.
Come, 2005, with Christopher Nolan's "Batman Begins".
The idea that a super hero is more than a public figure and a t-shirt (1995's "Se7en"), really stuck with me.
To be a super hero, you had to commit to something far greater than you and your closest ones can ever be.
Ra's al Ghul proved that in just the few scenes he had with Bruce Wayne. The betrayal only emphasized Wayne's intentions of being something more than just a name like Ra's al Ghul (who only lived in reputation).
Literally, every CN film after BB, I've come out a different person.
The Dark Knight, hero's are a misnomer and a construct of those who need it where the Justice System fails (Harvey Dent). And that pure chaose (Joker) is a valid response where the general public cannot act.
TDKR, where everyone fails, the last resort is the one person who represents both sides. Bane represented TLoS and also the free-thinking society of Gotham that doesn't have to answer to the corruption of their police force as established in the first film.
Through Christopher Nolan, everything is like Greek stage-play: Tragic.
Nothing is comedic. It's all tragic.
Just so we can associate ourselves and humanize the film on some level.
Me, being ever so eager to break away from this notion, cannot deny Nolan his intentions.
After Inception, I saw strangers in a fucked up light that they were just mere projectoins and mean nothing.
After TDKR, I feel everything just needs an explosion to emphasise the drawn-out exaggeration of importance they need: people only care about sports when their 'favorite' team wins.
When it comes to Nolan, I am now fully aware it will, entirely, change my perspective on life.
Not just my own, but those I interact with, wether intentionaly or unintentionaly.
Trust me, that every action I perform has some sentient force behind it and emotes some Walking Dead emotion as to whether or not I did the right thing or am just acting on an angry emotion that I so passionately feel.
To summarize:
The past: classical music
The present: Christopher Nolan.
The future: ???
I have no idea what will affect me in the future.
I somehow feel that if I were to see Interstellar right now in theaters, I would not leave if it meant my life.
The mere notion that life on Earth is no longer an option is a scary realization, that seeing the movie would push me over the edge that strangers_as_projections would seem more like a fantasy that a few fun pills couldn't fix.
Quite literally, I'm quite scared of the future.
We're nearing the end of "natural resources".
We're reaching the apex of technological advancements that it seems every industry and home product is merely delaying the progress just to give us a few more years, that reaching 40 just seems futile as there's not much more in our future.
I was raised in the 80's.
Blade Runner was my year of birth: 1982.
Bleak, grimm, and dark.
Once you reach the apex of a story arc, there's only direction to head towards: down.
We're doing so much with 3D, HFR, and even just blu-ray formats, it's perplexing to believe there's much more than just mere smoke & mirrors after the gimmicks wearoff.
What inspires me for the future?
Let's re-summerize:
The past: classical music
The present: Christopher Nolan.
The future: ???
I'm really hoping one of you youngsters will post something inspiring.
I'm so caught up in the past and present, the future seems so bleak and dismal to me.
Blade Runner would not be so classic as it is if there wasn't a hint of predictability in it.
I don't show a humanized side enough, so...
DO NOT REPEAT THIS OR YOU WILL BE GREATED BY A TERMINATOR FROM THE PAST!!!
