Futurama
Futurama
is a comedy and a science fiction story about Fry, a delivery boy in the past.
Fry was a loser. We can say that he didn’t have anything. He’s job was a bust,
her girlfriend found a new one, and he didn’t have anywhere to go. Fry had a
miserable life. After one day, he accidentally got himself into a freezing
machine, freezing him for a millennium. And when he unfreezes, he was on the
year 3000.
Fry
was enjoying what he saw on the year 3000, robots, high-tech vehicles, and a
lot more. I think, the show is telling us that in the near future, we will also
achieve this kind of inventions and economical state. With the help of
technology, we will always progress. With the rate of development of our
technology now, we can say that it will not be long before we can make those
kinds of inventions.
On
Futurama, even though they have this kind of inventions and robotics, the
people on that time lost their freedom, in a way that they can’t choice who
they want to be. Each of them is assigned on a specific job without having any
choices. Fry disgusts with this kind of law bestowed on the people of the
future. And I think we can all agree on this. What is the use of high level of
technology if we are the ones who will be slave under them, the ones who won’t
get any freedom?
As
future scientists of this world, we are challenged by this show to make an
ideal future, a lot better than that of the show; a future where we are free to
choose what we want to be.
