nemo

Everyone in my family loves Finding Nemo. All the Pixar films, actually. But Finding Nemo, I think, is our favorite. That or Monster’s Inc. But anyhow…

There’s a part in Nemo that makes me laught every time. (Actually, there are several parts, but I’m just talking about one in particular here.0 Before Nemo is taken away, when they’re at the drop off and Marlin comes along and is arguing with Nemo, Mr. Ray comes up and says, “Excuse me sir, is there anything I can do? I am a scientist.”

Like his being a scientist has anything to offer the situation. It’s a father and a son having an argument. What’s he going to do, talk about the zones of the ocean? But it’s so true of the attitude science has. They think their scientific expertise makes them an authority in every area. Like in Ghostbusters, “back of man, I’m a scientist!”

I’m pretty sure the folks at Pixar are making joke with that line, and haven’t bought the ‘science is everything’ mentality of our age.
