Though Clooney mugs as much as acts, his comic timing remains superb and his young female co-stars are marvelous. The creator of The Incredibles, Ratatouille and the last Mission: Impossible film, Ghost Protocol, Bird straddles two worlds, his animation grounded by love of classic cinema, his live-action films liberated by an animator's sense of possibilities. I had to dry my tears and let the buzz wear off before I could argue with it. They're the doomsaying collective, like the science teacher who drones on about temperature rise and looks dumbly at Casey when she interrupts to ask, "Can we fix it?" Nihilistic groupthink rules our culture, says Bird, and Casey's positivity makes her a pariah.Īpart from that - a big "apart" - I loved the movie. Bird has acknowledged the influence of Ayn Rand's militant individualism, and so the enemies he identifies aren't, say, the people causing climate change. Maybe Bird is right and we are too comfortable - even turned on - by plague/flood/road-warrior/kids-killing-kids movies. He's saying our society has become so comfortable with the vision of apocalypse that we're not dreaming up solutions. It's not that Bird is disparaging climate change or other dangers.

But the most vivid thing is the message: a critique of films, books and TV shows in which floods, plagues, robots, or nukes wipe out civilization.

Which one lives? Casey knows the answer: "The one you feed."Īfter Casey joins forces with the middle-aged Frank, much of Tomorrowland is time-and-space jumping plus blast-'em-up battles with human-looking robots. Casey's dad poses a riddle that becomes the cornerstone of her worldview, which is, in fact, the film's worldview: You have two wolves, one representing darkness and despair, the other light and hope. It's obvious why both Casey and Frank got that pin: They have imaginations that can't be dampened. Every time she touches it, she's in what I'm tempted to call a field of dreams. Sprung from jail, she finds in her belongings the same kind of pin that sent Frank on the ride of his life. A budding rocket scientist, she's so outraged by the failure to support the space program, she sends homemade drones to sabotage the equipment - and gets caught. Casey Newton is a present-day Florida teen (played by Britt Robertson) whose dad works for NASA overseeing the dismantling of rockets that will never be used. For Frank, anything seems possible.įrank is not the movie's protagonist, but it's someone cut from the same cloth. This was an era when kids made rockets in garages out of vacuum cleaner parts when a clean, cheerful "city of the future" inspired awe instead of cynicism. What I can say is that for Bird the '64 fair is utopia. I can't describe where that is because the fun in Tomorrowland comes from being constantly upended. It's sad for him to think nothing's worth salvaging.Hugh Laurie is British scientist David Nix in Tomorrowland.

He can see the world change, as he spins it round and round and round as if it he could turn it back, and -Īthena grabs his arm with alarming strength. "I came back," she says in a small voice, "to tell you she can change it.
