Alan’s favorites list

- Humans (2016-present)

One of my favorites. It’s especially interesting as it relates to developmental psychology of kids and their relationships to technology.


- Chappie

Explores issues related to artificial intelligence, consciousness transplants, and questioning what consciousness is. 

Alan’s overrated list

- Star Wars

It’s like cowboys and Indians in space
