Truman Show Response

Q1. Have we reached this point in our entertainment "Experience"'

A1. No, we haven't reached it to that extreme like the Truman show in my acknowledgment, But there is such reality television where we(viewers at home) can get an inside look of their daily lives.
Example John & Kate plus Eight, this show we can see what goes on everyday inside their house and ther eight kids. The difference is Truman lived his whole being watch and not being informed. Truman lived in a world where everything was prearranged for him and people would get entertainment from this. As for John & Kate plus eight they were fully aware they are being video tape and braodcasted throughout the world, in return for financial compensaition. Lastly we live in a world where incaptiving a person to be in a 24/7 television would unexceptable. There would be too many peple that would rebel agaist this, and eventually would be shut down.

Q2. Is Truman whole world fake or is it real? is what christof says true or is he justifying the world that he created?

Truman whole world in my opinion is fake because there two sperate world the one christof created for him and the one we live in. Everything Truman experience is just arrange before hand just for the veiwers at home. Truman can never really experience the trill of life when everything is set up as for he would experience in th real world. For us everyday something can happen to us, its an open ended story, but for truman he almost lives with no fear, no endangerment, nor excitement as we can truley feel in the real life. What christof says about the world he provided for Truman in my opinion is false. He is just justify the world he created for him because the world he provided for truman is perfect, but the world we live in is not perfect. Truman is also stuck on an island that he was never suppose to leave, but in the real world it has much more to offer than just a small island. The real world he will see the difference between what he was forced to live and the real life. The new people he meets some will friendly and some can be insane. The enviroment, Truman will see different sort habitats and lifestlyes. it won't be the everyday things he see in the world christof has made for him.
