Ok this movie looks crazy and interesting.

I dont totally understand it, but it says people only use 10% of your brain, but lucy could use more and more of her brain to control things.

Whats that called?

Also anyone else wanna see it?
What do you think about it?

Comes out in theaters july 25th I think.

Stuff like this really interests me.
 
No one understood Sucker Punch when that came out, and people still liked it.
I don't see why this would be any different.
 
I literally rolled my eyes when I first saw the trailer, as this entire concept of using more than X percent of our brains has been way overdone in all types of fiction, AND it's entirely false. True, we only use about 10% of our brain at any one time, but we access nearly all parts of our brain at different times. When we access all parts of our brain at once, that's called a seizure.

Still, movies that have played with this concept of unlocking secret mental potential have been entertaining at times... Limitless, for example, was pretty good. Hopefully Lucy will have enough interesting story/characters behind it to make this flawed concept a bit more palatable.

As a side note, I find it amusing that the eponymous Lucy happens to also be the name of one of the earliest human ancestors discovered. Makes me wonder if there's a connection...
