Anyway, I promised I would upload it and here it is. Remember that you have to answer 15 questions about what Viola Davis says. Ready, steady, GO!

STICKS AND STONES MAY BREAK MY BONES, BUT (WORDS WON'T HURT ME)



What hurts you more? Nasty words, insults, people looking down on you, somebody putting you down  or physical violence? Are you immune to criticism?

THE WEAR & TEAR

FORBIDDEN PLANET
Year Released: 1956
Country: US
Director: Fred Wilcox

Forbidden Planet was a 1950's science fiction box office success, containing a mixture of technological paranoia (computers and technology ultimately destroyed the galaxy's most advanced race) and optimism (space flight is ubiquitous, mankind is flourishing, and Robby the Robot is every housewife's dream come true).

The film begins with a very squeaky-clean and positive view of science and technology.

The first piece of "alien" technology we are introduced to is Robby the Robot. Robby is another perfectly crafted work -- he is self-sufficient and perfectly loyal to his human masters. When we are first introduced to the rest of the technology of the Krell, it too is pristine. It shows no signs of wear and tear, despite its incredible age. It was perfectly crafted millions of years ago, and is entirely self-sustaining.
