Surrogates-Bruce Willis, Radha Mitchell, Rosamund Pike, James Cromwell



SEE?



So, society has finally capitulated to the ultimate for of antisocial behavior relying on robotic recreations of themselves in order to function in the real world. Okay. Let's play. First of all, if you can have a surrogate who looks like Rosamund Pike wouldn't you choose a Brad Pitt husband not a Bruce Willis surrogate. No offense, Bruce, but real humans are either gonna choose hot young surrogates or no one at all. Also, for someone who hasn't been out in he real world for years, Tom (Bruce Willis) seems to have stayed remarkably fit (didn't see a home gym in the apartment). He sure managed to get his defensive driving skills back in a hurry. I drive for hours everyday, and I couldn't tackle the road like that.




Also, can those of us who do not have makeup and hair teams to buff us up have a brief moment of rage about how long it probably took to make Radha Mitchell and Rosamund Pike look bad. Sorry. That pisses me off. And finally a note about the difference between models and actors. There is a difference. Nothing demonstrates that more than trying to employ pretty-faced cherubs to portray a character which is actually played by actor James Cromwell. Not like animation, you know, you actually have to rely on the acting skills of these folks. Yeah, people, for those of you who believe that most actors succeed on their looks, let me assure you that talent succeeds, beauty fails. Models take heart, if you have the acting charm in you, time will tell. Surrogates will not.




EAT.




Well, if everybody's gotta eat in all the time better make the most of it. You're gonna need some variety. Hit the road or not at http://www.takeouttaxi.com/.








SHOP.





Hey. Life too hard? Can't handle the pressure? Just want to lock yourself inside and replace yourself with a robot? Best of luck. 'Fraid they don't look like supermodels in our world yet. Plus, you can't afford a robot. Trust me. And nobody who sees C-3PO sitting at your desk is gonna buy that it's you. Fine. Give it your best shot- http://www.androidworld.com/prod02.htm.
