much about nothing

i was watching xmen 3 the other day and it occured to me that we (humans, people, normal beings on earth) built fences and locks to save ourselves from other humans, people, normal beings on earth ... ironic isn't it? we are afraid of our own kind ... not aliens or mutants or other creatures!

on another note, the movies these days are a bit uninspiring ... nothing to really shout about ... more or less rather dull ... and with more hikes in electricity, water and food in the country ... i don't blame piracy - it's not the poor people's fault they have to support piracy ... ask the government (how come our currency is weaker then brunei/ singapore ... we have oil, we have land) and exploiting companies who pay meager salaries. the maths don't add up ... yet we have to change OUR lifestyle ... ironic ... for a country which paints itself as developing, we take 2 steps forward and ask our people to take 3 steps back. on the front it looks nice and rosy, but using a microscope, the people's mentality is rather lacking ... wonder why?
