ON THIS FLYBY, Gonz talks about the movie Transcendence starring Johnny Depp, Rebecca Hall and Morgan Freeman.

Transcendence is a film chalked full of philosophical and ethical questions regarding the advent of Artificial Intelligence, nanotech, and mind uploading. These questions are posed throughout the film in the various characters that identify with particular positions in the debate. The viewer is taken through this psychological and philosophical journey as clear distinctions between the protagonist and antagonist are blurred as the film unfolds. But at the heart of the film was this quintessential question; What does it mean to be human? In fact, in the end, the film answers that question for you. But you may not have to wait to see it because Gonz totally spoils the movie, but he gives you a good excuse to go see it anyways, especially if you are a movie guy or gal. Gonz also talks about the subtle jabs at religion, specifically Christianity and the Biblical account. Despite these jabs, he also discusses the blatant imagery of the prophetic events spoken about in the book of Revelation about the antichrist, mark of the beast, and image of the beast that were displayed in full effect on screen.
