With the advent of the driverless car comes a world of
entertainment possibilities. Just imagine how much cooler road movies would be
with a Google driverless car, like Vanishing
Point, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry, Death Race 2000, and Mad Max. Think of all the extra
character development and dialog we could get if all these guys chasing each
other could just sit back and talk on cell phones while their car did all the
driving; or better yet, what if the cars had nobody in them at all? Now that’s excitement!
And to let everyone know about the pulse-pounding
possibilities of driverless car movies, I think Google should sponsor a new TV
show reboot: The Dukes of Hazzard!
Yes, imagine how much more fun that should would be with the Duke boys and the
cops chasing each other around in Google driverless Priuses! Now that’s entertainment!
Hey, the least they could do is make ads with the driverless
cars in these scenarios and say: “Okay, we admit driverless cars may not be as
pedal-to-the-metal exciting as being alpha males racing around in muscle cars,
but if you’re tired and rush hour traffic is awful, it’s about the best thing
you can imagine!”
