The movie the Time Traveler was an interesting look at the idea of time travel. The main character travels far into the future to see what happens to the human race. He learns that it was almost destroyed by war, and that now the world is populated by two groups, the surface dwelling peaceful people and the men who live underground. He is shocked to find out that the surface dwellers are bred like cattle to be slaughtered. With the help of the surface dwellers he destroys the vermin living underground and once again travels back in time. When he returns to the past and tells his friends, they refuse to believe him. Frustrated he goes back to the future to live with the girl he loves.

The most interesting thing i have learned about sci fi this semester would be the concept of paradox. I was interesting thinking about what would cause these paradoxes in time. I  began the semester thinking that scifi was limited to aliens and time travel, but now i know that there is so much more.  My favorite unit was the time enders game unit because we got to make a video project and the book was a good read.
