I know that it's 100% made up, just... what parts of it were made up by Aronofski and what parts where made up by ancient Semitics tripping on hallucinatory drugs.
You know you could read the source material...
It isn't that long, but is very weird. And is actually has two versions of the same-ish story spliced together.
A large portion of the tale is devoted to Noah rolling around drunk and naked in front of his sons.

I remember reading a great short story about a pregnant prostitute sneaking on board the ark. She and her sinner spawn are the reason things are still all fucked up FYI.

Actually, watching the Transcendence trailer again, I think it's possible the AI may be the good guy and the trailer is just intentionally misleading.
Because at the beginning it's established that there's like an anti-tech terrorist organization.
If you figure that the writer would most likely be writing about post-humanism because he is a post-humanist (it's not really a mainstream concept and like all the stuff that shows up in the trailer are things post-humanists are all about), then Luddites are probably the actual enemy, and he's going for a reversal on the usual scifi tropes. This would be pretty consistent with, like, Kurzweil, where he sees himself as being persecuted by people who are afraid of technology.

This just made me think of Stand Alone Complex.
The scene where the Tachikomas achieve real sentience at the same moment as deciding to sacrifice themselves for Bateau (I think it was Bateau) was some of the best writing I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing about (I guess) post humanism.

Book of Enoch isn't in the bible.
Pfft, so you want me to read a story that wasn't even good enough to make it into The Bible?

The show so completely jumped the shark at the end of the third season anyway.
Huh I didn't know anyone else here played it. Such a trippy game.

spending the money on quality shoes is pretty much as important as brushing your teeth regularly
Old adage about things that separate you from the ground. Shoes. Beds. Tires. That sort of thing. Buy 'em good.

Well, that's step one.
Book of Enoch isn't in the bible.
Pfft, so you want me to read a story that wasn't even good enough to make it into The Bible?
I was sad too
But then I realized it was one of the few long running shows I've watched that got an ending that wasn't butts so I was ok with it
