    The Resistance Repository:
    I like how you made it somewhat like the Terminator. I really like that idea. its creative

    ReplyDelete
  2. Jesse M-
    I liked the theme that your stories had and how they made a story.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Jesse, I thought it was cool you based an article on Terminator, and how all the articles were connected to the Resistance.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I though it was interesting that jesse m made each of his articles based off of one theme.

    ReplyDelete
  5. Jesse M - The newspaper for the people that are left fighting against the machines trying to take over the world. Cool idea with the Alaska safe zone.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Jesse M,
    I like the layout and how you prepared the appearance of your news stories. Good stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  7. jesse m: the stories were very creative and followed a good story that sounded like it could really happen in the future

    ReplyDelete
  8. I liked how Jesse M. followed the idea of Terminator, combining old world factories and storage facilities with the new updated technology overthrowing the human race.

    ReplyDelete
  9. jesse.if machines are trying to take over the world, how would the news get around? i like the idea.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Jesse M I like the idea a lot, because I can really see our own tecnoligy taking over in the future.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Jesse M.-Well done. Cool how all the stories follow a central theme, and good use of incorporating small details like Berlin being the last city.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Jesse Mericle- cool story about the resistance. I like how berlin is the only surviving city it would be if something like that happened.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Jesse M's blog
    I liked how he themed the future as bad and unsafe for humans to live, and how people can resist and stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  14. The Repository resistance - I think that the whole single themed idea was a good one. It was similar to all sci-fi resistance stories, it was good.

    ReplyDelete
  15. The paper is strong but I feel the idea isn't new but i didn't read the paper it's self so I have no idea what the details in the story are so it may be great

    ReplyDelete
  16. Cole C- I liked how you used the economy as a factor that readers could relate to.

    ReplyDelete
  17. & Courtney reed's comment:
    Cole's project was very good, and well presented and thought out. we liked the hybrid animals idea.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Cole C,

    I think the part of "Hybrid Animals" is interesting, it is intrigueing(sp?) to think that I may one day have a lion-dog hybrid in my household...
    Machines in the household! Body suite video games! I like how you didn't "glamorize" these products as do many science fiction writers... just like anything, there will be disadvantages.

    Great Presentation!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Cole C
    I liked how your stories varied alot. My favorite was the mind erosion. The stories were very creative.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Cole C-I like the idea of the full body suit video game and how it can change peoples' personalities.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Cole C.
    I liked your story about the robot, it reminded me of the movie irobot. Your pictures went along very well with all of your stories.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Cole C.
    I really it, I thought it was interesting. And i liked your story about the full body suit game.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Conley News - I thought that the whole idea of animal shelters and creating hybrids animals was really creative. Was that a real picture?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Cole

    you had very creative ideas and i thought your pictures depicted them well.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Cole C
    I thought that your take on the robots story was interesting and not one that most people have taken or thought of

    ReplyDelete
  26. Cole C - I liked dog/lion mix because that picture was pretty cool. The virtual reality suit was cool too.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Bryan- the GPS in the head might happen sometime in the future, good prediction.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Brian Lieberman- I like your acid rain, very creative

    ReplyDelete
  29. Cole C.

    The Hybrid Shelter is unique idea but I don't agree with it, and I hope we do not start doing that, but with the way science is going I bet we are anytime soon.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Brian - It seems a lot like 1984. I like That idea, but most likely we're heading to that.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Brian L: your story used real ideas that could be come true but used extrapalations to make them sound like they were real in the future

    ReplyDelete
  32. Brian's presentation was very good and had interesting extrapolations. I also thought there was good humor in it as well.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Brian, The stories were comical but pretty realistic when you think about it, Good job.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Brian-
    I like how he took problems now, like acid rain, and put them continuing to the future, because I would have thought they would have come up with a solution by then, but it was logical.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Brian L.

    He did a really good job developing the theory of government surveillance. I enjoyed the throw back of big brother and human tracking devices.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Bryan
    I liked all your stories. The variation of each story is really good.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Brian- I like how you include a weather section like a normal newspaper but incorporate how it is very different from today.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Brian,

    I can really dig the government theme! Good stuff, and very interesting. I feel like this can easily happen in the future, as government surveilence(sp?) is always on the rise...

    ReplyDelete
  39. Brian, i like how you made the government more controlling and how no one has privacy

    ReplyDelete
  40. Brynn,

    Spray food... I like it! Kinda like space-food-sticks! hahaha...

    ReplyDelete
  41. Brynn S.
    I liked your spray food idea. I think that would be really useful!

    ReplyDelete
  42. & Courtney Reed's comment:
    Brynn's project:
    it wasnt really presented at all, just rushed through, but we liked the ideas she came up with for the future.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Brynn S-
    I liked the spray food idea. It would save time for many people.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Brynn S - The spray food was a pretty cool idea. Its interesting that two different groups have talked about the virtual reality thing

    ReplyDelete
  45. Brynn S : I like the articles because that is only a short time away until we have things to make our lives so easy that we won't have to try at all.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Brynn S-I thought the idea of the food pills was something that people would actually do in the future if they have a busy life.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Brynn s.

    I thought your spray food was an interesting idea and I wonder if it could be possible.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Brynn S
    I enjoyed your project a lot.
    I liked how yours had to do with a lot with technology

    ReplyDelete
  49. Brynn S.

    I like all of the ideas they are very interesting, the food would be great and easy to use I hope that actually becomes a reality.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Brynn S
    The stories were interesting and they made you think, even though they were comical they showed that even the comical things are possible

    ReplyDelete
  51. Brynn S.,crazy ideas!
    maybe go into more explanation.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Courtney R., Katie W., and Emily D.- I liked the floating field idea for baseball; technology revolutionizing sports!

    ReplyDelete
  53. Emily, Courtney, annd Katie - I really like the baseball field idea. Floating in space, the ball wouldn't stop. that'd be sweet.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Space vacations, cool idea. I love how you incorporated Orbitz, and that they will still be a company in the future... I also like that you looked forward into the fates of climate change, and transportation... Nice, thorough presentation, especially the part about star trek reversing... I like it.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Emily, Courtney, Katie,
    I liked your buy your own planet idea, I'd buy one if i had the money. Good take on the future with movies/fashion.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Emily, Katie, Courtney- the planets are pretty cheap. Global warming is an interesting topic as well.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Courtney Emily and Katie- It is interesting how you focused on space exploration and the problems of today made worse, or at least still unsolved.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Courtney Katie and Emily-
    Their space cruise idea in the beginning reminded me of Wall-e. I also liked their idea of buying your own planet.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Courtney R., Katie W., Emily D
    I enjoyed your presentation. Even though you didn't go into explanations about it I really thought you guys had some good ideas.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Courtney R.- Katie W.- Emily D.
    I think its interesting that in your project you are still concerned about the Earth. But you thought of ideas that would help that problem. Like recycling crushed up comets. Very interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Courtney R. Katie W. Emily D.

    Selling planets from Orbitz was pretty neat. The idea of a floating baseball field gave a different perspective on sports in the future. Expanding fields and making use of what resources are still available on earth was shown very well.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I liked how jesse m. related his story back to the movie the terminator.It consisted of interesting scenes and an interesting plot.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Brittany - I like the use of the current bad economy. The thought that it will continue to go up and down needs to be realized.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Britni J-
    I liked the interactive movie idea. That would be so interesting if that were real.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Brian had the clever idea of a human being born with chips in their heads so that the government can track you where ever you are. I thought this idea was very interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Britney
    It's interesting that you used androids instead of robots as your soldiers and then followed up with a story about android rights it was good that you tied the two together.

    ReplyDelete
  67. Britni J:I liked how you took problems that we had now but applied them in a future setting

    ReplyDelete
  68. Britni J.
    I really like the idea of being involved in a movie! I think that would be so cool. And all of your articles were really cool. Nice Job!

    ReplyDelete
  69. Britni J's was very interesting, and i liked the interactive movie idea.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Britni J- I like the idea of cash for clunkers being revisited with hovercrafts.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Britni J.

    Cash for clunkers, for hover-crafts... I like the use of machines in place of humans, and that you have extrapolated todays concerns and events into the future... I also love that you put today's movies in there as classics... great idea.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Britni J - I liked the androids protesting the use of androids as soliders

    ReplyDelete
  73. Britni J: I like the article about Mars. I could really see earth people going to colonies mars and then wanting the earth to play no role in how they live their liefs. v

    ReplyDelete
  74. Britni-
    That sounds cool to actually be in the movies.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Britni J

    Movie idea would be cool, I like the thought of having my own personal viewing area, and to be part of my favorite movies.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Britni, i like the idea of interactive movies, but every now and then i would like to watch a movie and just enjoy the movie.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Britni J

    Very interesting stories, I liked the interactive movie story allot.

    ReplyDelete
  78. Mitch W.- Your news stories were comical...and your pants are wild

    ReplyDelete
  79. Mitch W- it would suck if we ran out of burger patties and pine trees.

    ReplyDelete
  80. Mitchh - Haha enslave\ing troll dolls! That'd be really funny.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Mitch W-
    I like how we talked about fast food. The sad part was that it's so true. Also, the troll dolls was a funny idea because I used to love to play with them!

    ReplyDelete
  82. Mitch- Good use of humor, especially since the fast food riots could happen.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Mitch w,
    good and realistic idea of the pine beetles. I liked it.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Mitch W,

    I REALLY like that you put realistic events into this. The pine-beetle is a definite issue, and it should be addressed... I also like the troll dolls, very funny...

    EXCELLENT presentation...

    ReplyDelete
  85. Mitch W.
    I like your story about troll dolls! It makes me remember the one I used to have. :D I also liked how you incorporated things that are going on now, into your project.

    ReplyDelete
  86. & Courtney Reed's comment:
    Mitch W. projects:
    interesting pants, hahahah i love the troll dolls artical, thats really funny!!!

    ReplyDelete
  87. Mitch W.
    I like your troll doll invasion story. It was quite interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Mitch
    I thought your stories were hilarious but in reach with the future, especially the fast food one. Pine beetle story was also very creative.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Mitch W

    I like the idea of the fast food riot.
    Good use of humor.
    I think that your ideas were very creative.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Mitch W.

    Excellent job showing the destruction of pine trees due to pine beetles. Superb showing of troll dolls creating an uprise due to enslavement, only you Mitch would write about that. Hamburger patties in the future and how Americans will cause riots was unimaginable, leaves you think...will America still be addicted to fast food in the future?

    ReplyDelete
  91. AJ and Duncan,

    I like that you put cars into the future, it seems realistic that we could have an H2O powered car, considering we already have Hydrogen and HHO ("Browns Gas") powered cars. You have included aspects from things you would find in Marvel comics, as well as things like those depicted in the movie "Waterworld".

    Nice Job.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Duncan and AJ - I liked the whole idea of just more regular newsw. It wasn't all about space and other stuff, it was more realistic.

    ReplyDelete
  93. AJ C
    Duncan F

    The car idea would be nice because we would not need gas, but the water would probably run out and more problems would come with that.

    ReplyDelete
  94. AJ and Duncan-I like the idea of lacrosse on roller skates.

    ReplyDelete
  95. I enjoyed how AJ took a role in presenting his newsreport, i also liked the robot that is to replace our place in the work force.

    ReplyDelete
  96. AJ C Duncan E - I liked the giant tarantula that turned out to be helpful to the people in Tokyo

    ReplyDelete
  97. Duncan & AJ

    Great Job, these are very interesting articles and ideas

    ReplyDelete
  98. Aj, Duncan

    It was interesting how your stories were so different and interesting. It was good how you talked about a lot of different things

    ReplyDelete
  99. Duncan and AJ: very creative and futuristic

    ReplyDelete
  100. Patrick and Tyler and Andrew - I thought it was cool that youi guys used 9news as the future source as if we still will use the same resources for news.

    ReplyDelete
  101. Tyler, Patrick, Hunter, Andrew:

    Interesting fuel source invention, I like it...

    Hahaha... Morgan Freeman "Oldest Man Alive" dies... very creative.

    Oh no! No more viruses? Wouldn't this lead to severe overpopulation? Good idea though...

    Moon football, nice.

    Great presentation.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Tyler W. Patrick D. Hunter H. and Andrew O.'s project was very interesting. I really liked all the extrapolations that they made because they seemed quite probabal.

    ReplyDelete
  103. Tyler W. Patrick D. Hunter H. Andrew O.
    I liked your article about Morgan Freeman, very funny! I like your idea about a stadium on the moon. I also like how you took things that we have today, and thought about what they would be like in the future.

    ReplyDelete
  104. I really liked the Morgan Freeman article, it made me laugh. It's interesting that baseball is played on the moon. I liked the articles, they were humorous and enlightening. (Hunter....you're going to lose)

    ReplyDelete
  105. Tyler, Patrick, Hunter, and Andrew-
    I liked the article about the world's oldest man. The NYSE being moved to LA was also interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  106. Tyler, Patrick, Hunter, Andrew
    Interesting articles, I was a little confused about the nuclear blast story but good job

    ReplyDelete
  107. Hunter hall talked about this substance that cars can run off of for up to thirty years, i thought that was a pretty interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  108. Tyler W, Patrick D, Hunter H, Andrew O

    I like the idea of "No More Viruses", it would be nice to have that now. The iPhone would be cool, and I wonder if it would really happen.

    ReplyDelete
  109. I thought that the extrapolations were very interesting like the sports on the moon, the oldest man, and the new "eye"-phone. All of them were very funny, good job.

    ReplyDelete
  110. Tyler, Patrick, Andrew, Hunter- lots of interesting ideas, pretty out there, very original.

    ReplyDelete
  111. tyler patrick hunter andrew it was creative when you said the olodest man died was morgan freeman they said he lived so long because of his persona which is funny very creative

    ReplyDelete
  112. carter and levi: i thought your presentation was very creative and unique how you thought we could have a robot president, and transportation was invented that would be very cool to have that haappen

    ReplyDelete
  113. Carter and Levi.

    These seem like reasonable extrapolations, I have always loved the idea of teleportation.

    Robotic president... very creative, and as scary as it sounds, it seems somewhat reasonable...

    Nice job.

    ReplyDelete
  114. carter and levi: i would enjoy seeing a space hotel that would be awesome to be able to go to space adn stay there as a vacation

    ReplyDelete
  115. Carter W and Levi S - It makes since that there would be a few more "firsts" for the Presidency between now and 2110, the robot would have to be really smart though

    ReplyDelete
  116. carter levi it was creative how you thought of in a hundred years trhere will be the first robot president. it was also creative how you came up with a story about a hockey tournament against mars very creative

    ReplyDelete
  117. & Courtney reed's comment
    Levi & Carter's project:
    i thought that it was sorta rushed through, but they had well thought out ideas.

    ReplyDelete
  118. Carter w. Levi S.

    thee Martian baseball was really interesting. Good job incorporating a new world species to an old world tradition.

    ReplyDelete
  119. Carter W levi S: I like the story idea about the robot president. i could indeed see this event occuring and then the human race get takin over by robots

    ReplyDelete
  120. Carter and Levi-
    I likes how they talked about the teleportation because it shows how they think technology will grow in the future.

    ReplyDelete
  121. Carter and levi
    Your topics were very creative.
    I like the one where we have our first robot president.
    I think this is a good extrapolation.

    ReplyDelete
  122. Carter and Levi, I like that you took the idea of drunk driving to drunk flying as a problem.

    ReplyDelete
  123. carter talked about a robot president with in the span of one hundred years. i thought that was an interesting thought.

    ReplyDelete
  124. Cater w levi s,
    like the mars hockey. good creativity.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Scott - I really liked the whole concept and story. It was nice to hear something other than the usual news stories.

    ReplyDelete
  126. I love your story, excellent narration, very dramatic... The verb-age really makes the weaponry sound realistic...

    Very nice take on the apocalypse, great job!

    ReplyDelete
  127. Scott Milf Killer: I enjoyed the creativity of your story and i could see the story coming true, but that does not stop you from being a kitty. A Mighty Kat.

    ReplyDelete
  128. Scott-very well written story and an interesting topic. the theat of nuclear war sounded like a second cold war

    ReplyDelete
  129. i liked scotts names for his bombs, also his story was intense.

    ReplyDelete
  130. Scott-
    The Armageddon theme was a unique idea. Also the idea that we are a federation was good. The writing was so good and detailed.

    ReplyDelete
  131. Scott S - That was intense. I thought it was much more like a real science fiction then any of the other stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  132. scott it was creative how you said that america is now a federation very creative and realistic

    ReplyDelete
  133. Scott S. "M.K."
    I like how you made a story, instead of just a news cast. It was very interesting. You are a great writer, I like how your words showed us what was going on instead of just telling us.
    :D

    ReplyDelete
  134. Scott:
    Amazing writing, Made a good picture in my mind.
    You should write more of those.

    ReplyDelete
  135. Scott S.

    The first article was alright, I enjoyed it. On the other hand, the monologue followed Terminator a little too closely, but the spin off was okay. Possibly some further development would do you some good. I WILL BEAT YOU AT PING PONG SCOTT STEWART.

    ReplyDelete
  136. Scott- I thought the extrapolation was somewhat reasonable. The story itself though was very good, and although it wasn't a news story, by putting in parts about what happened on certain dates, he did add detail as if it were one. Good Job

    ReplyDelete
  137. Scott, your story was very good. It kept me interested throughout with great description and word emphasis. The thought of nuclear war seems like it could happen at any time so it was a good idea to base your story off of.

    ReplyDelete
  138. brian the rifle that you are talking about that has heatseeker in it so its a kill everytime very creative and realistic

    ReplyDelete
  139. Brian-I like the article about regrowing hair. Very funny

    ReplyDelete
  140. Brian - I liked the location use for the radiation. It hints at a possible near nuclear blast on the middle east, which could happen very soon.

    ReplyDelete
  141. Brian A

    War in Columbia and guided bullets, that's pretty new and interesting almost like nano technology.

    ReplyDelete
  142. Brian A
    I like the idea about scientists have created a product that makes hair grow. it is really interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  143. Brian A-
    I liked how he made reference to a war were it probably wouldn't be now. Also, a hundred years from now, we still have to wait to find a cure for cancer? Sounds like technology has a ways to travel still.

    ReplyDelete
  144. Brian

    I like it,

    So like mankind to wait till its 100 years too late to make a difference...

    ReplyDelete
  145. brian A, i liked his invention of a chemical of some sort that grows hair no matter what.

    ReplyDelete
  146. brian A; the concept of creating a drug to avoid death is something i could see humans making in the near future.Most Humans are too afraid of dying and would do anything to avoid it no matter the cost

    ReplyDelete
  147. Brian A.
    Interesting. liked it. unusual. creative.

    ReplyDelete
  148. & Courtney Reed's comment:
    Brian A's Project:
    it was good, didn't really explain anything though.

    ReplyDelete
  149. Brian A.

    The last story about the hair lost is interesting, and I bet everyone that is going through it would be happy about it, to bad they will have to wait hundred years to get it.

    ReplyDelete
  150. HUNTER HALL..I WILL STRIKE YOU DOWN WITH FURIOUS ANGER ON THE PING PONG TABLE

    ReplyDelete
  151. Spencer and Luke,
    good stuff. Luke- Will you go to winter formal with me? ;)

    ReplyDelete
  152. spencer, i liked his idea of creating different elements into things on the new planet that the humans would discover later in the article.

    ReplyDelete
  153. Spencer l luke Z: I liked your story they actually show hope for the future.

    ReplyDelete
  154. spencer and luke: i think the weather modificator idea was cool i think that would defiantly have its good side and its bad side sor things but all in all i thought it was very neat.

    ReplyDelete
  155. spencer luke it was creative when you said a scientist created a weather controller that controlls the weather and gets rid of acid rain and rains where it needs it

    ReplyDelete
  156. Spencer, Luke- Being able to control the weather would be really helpful. The self-updating traffic report is a good idea too.

    ReplyDelete
  157. Spencer l, Luke Z.

    The rain idea would be cool, I wish it would happen before hundred years so I would actually see it in action.

    ReplyDelete
  158. Spencer and Luke Z.- Your newspaper had a very good layout. and enjoyed the lightsaber advertisement..go star wars!

    ReplyDelete
  159. Spencer L. Luke Z.
    Cool idea about a race around the galaxy. I liked the part about celebrities adopting kids from different planets.

    ReplyDelete
  160. Spencer and Luke-
    I liked the celebrities adopting babies from other planets.

    ReplyDelete
  161. Spencer and Luke, i like the idea of finding new planets and some of those planets can be changed so people can live there. i like the idea of alien adoptions. nice.

    ReplyDelete
  162. Spencer, Luke- Good job on your stories, i thought the new style of nascar is interesting, as well as the new adoptions.

    ReplyDelete
  163. spencer and luke

    I found the galaxy racing very cool because I could imagine it happening in the future a while from now. It is also interesting to think about how it would work.

    ReplyDelete
  164. nacarid it was creative when you talked about a crash on a space highway or something which is creative and realistic also creative the sport of baseball and lacrosse creative and realistic

    ReplyDelete
  165. Nacrid Silva!- The U.S. won? I don't know how believable that is...but I like the creativity! Tell Hunter he's going to lose!

    ReplyDelete
  166. Courtney Reed's comment:
    Nacarid s project:
    cool ideas! i want some tv glasses!

    ReplyDelete
  167. Nacarid S.

    The story was excellent, Flying classes were very interesting on how it was a step back on technology. Great follow up with the ideas of the basic future, not too fancy just very literal. Cool beans

    ReplyDelete
  168. Nacarid- I like the idea of the TV glasses

    ReplyDelete
  169. Nacarid - The tv glasses need that to have them now. That woulld would be really handy to have.

    ReplyDelete
  170. mitzel: i thought it was interesting that you used a step back in technology for your first story. most sci fi stories incorperate advanced technology not a step back

    ReplyDelete
  171. Nacarid S-
    I like how she talked about the television sunglasses and how we have gone from giant flat screen tv's to tv's in sunglasses. It sounds like a cool invention.

    ReplyDelete
  172. Nacarid - Whatever that new sport was, it sounded pretty cool. I liked that TV glasses thing

    ReplyDelete
  173. nacarid s, talked about a new olympic sport that is a combination of football and lacrosse.

    ReplyDelete
  174. Nacarid:
    Interesting sport idea, USA!
