Hi, I was wondering if I could ask a couple questions about the movie "The Box"? If you happen to have time. If not its okay...this is a weird time to try and attempt normal discussions.

My first Q was: Is the movie saying that we are in these human bodies as a form of purgatory? We reincarnate (the guy moving from house to house) until we are able to "pass the test" and go into the afterlife (the water; endless ocean emanating from/reflecting the One? reminds me of images of "the deep" in Genesis). Anything else I might be missing or misinterpreting?

Second Question: What was up with the ending scene where the child was turned blind and deaf, and the husband had to kill his wife? I can't seem to correlate that with anything or understand it. I just finished the movie and this seemed to be the most puzzling part.

Also the theme of "employees". It seems like in this movie, humans are subject to control by the invisible employers as long as they exist as humans. There are no secrets.

The movie is literal. Don't read into it. It's real as it gets. The Watchers are "those who control the lightning". When mankind started space travel and and getting close to AI the Watchers had to be sure humans were morally ready.

What Arlington said is literal. If you put material possessions over life then the extinction of the human race will be expedited. Coronavirus is meant to be a lesson in that. I am fuckin appalled from the ppl saying let it run its course. Materialism over lives. If we did that the virus would kill millions and the Watchers would punish us w/ an even worse disaster.

What have you ppl learned so far from this crisis? Tell me the bad and good things.

Bad: I have collectively been giving humans too much credit. Most are far more stupid, and far more selfish than I imagined.

Good: Those who are not selfish, can be absolutely selfless.

There is more, but I just had two sips of coffee so far. need to wake up.

95% of the time good things never come from big groups of ppl. "Society can only instruct while inspiration springs from solitude" I'm paraphrasing Goethe.
