Film Questions #1:
1) If I realized that I was just "stuff" and there was nothing special about me, I would feel depressed in the beginning. Almost everyone in this world including myself think their special in some way, but if I realized I wasn't I would feel horrible. Later on, I would probably adjust to it and live my life knowing I was just "stuff" in this world.
2) A few weeks ago I was at Disneyland with my family and there was this statue with Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse. If you angle yourself to the side it looks like the image has an erect penis (sorry for the descriptive image). So I was walking with my family and I have never seen the statue, but I was directly angled that way, I thought I saw a statue with an erect penis. Obviously, I started walking to the statue and the image got much clearer and what look like an erect penis was just Mickey's nose. My second example of mistakenly believing something I saw and it wasn't true; it was a woman holding clothes by her stomach. I just saw the shadow of the woman and she appeared pregnant, but when she turned around I saw the real her and she was just holding some dirty clothes. It was a cerebral mirage; I thought she was pregnant within the image, but it turned out I was completely wrong. It's exactly like Plato's Allegory of the crave because Plato explains people in a cave seeing images, but those images that they see isn't the real image because it's a shadow of the real image.
