Yes fully agree. For those who enjoy X-Machina, there is a whole genre of Asian sci-fi horror movies like the Phone (Korean) and 999-9999 (Thai), both made in 2002 I think. jack On Wed, Jul 13, 2016 at 11:14 AM, Avi Marciano <marcianoavi@gmail.com> wrote:

It is very old school, but I always liked War Games (relationships with AI) with Mathew Broderick. The Net (isolation, online interaction with others, being "hunted" online) with Sandra Bullock. A newer Pixar movie is Big Hero Six (AI relationships). Other classics could be the Matrix, and I have used The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind to teach about love and relationships and what we learn from them.

Dear colleagues
I am teaching a course on media, culture and society, and am introducing a new assessment piece - a movie review. I am going to give students a selection of movies to choose from that have as a key element the role of communications technologies (including social media) on social change, social relations and identify.
I have already identified the following:
* Her - on operating systems and the self
* The Truman Show - on reality tv and public/private nexus
* The Enemy of the State - on surveillance technologies
* You've got mail (maybe) - on email and relationships
* Good morning Vietnam (maybe) - on radio and community building
I welcome any other suggestions and commendations. They can be old technologies, current or predicted new ones (ie sci fi).
