We will colonize space, but in doing so will bring back a terrible incurable disease that will wipe us all out.

Also yea thanks to petroleum the human race has had its little hundred year party, complete with the added genocide sideshows..shows about to be over soon, from what direction the end of the debauchery comes nobody knows. We sure didn't become like this due to our own ingenuity alone, have to thank the cheap and plentiful energy of mother earth for that one.

It's probably sadder to me now than as a kid.

When that squeaky shoe in Roger Rabbit got dipped or when they had Chucky previews in front of my Top Gun vhs was that moment for me

I got this intimidating feeling from a lot of them. I don't like watching disney movies now (besides aladdin) because they make me remember that feeling. no reason to relive it, and emotionally besting a disney movie is not an accomplishment. But i know they're all super popular and that's fine, i guess they ought to be.

We may not have to go that far to peak. Peak of humanity could happen to an earthbound humanity, space exploration and colonization are neat but I feel due to it's vast emptiness, space may not hold the key to the next or final level of the human existence, I believe we will need to find that on our own where we stand.

In other words, the question in the title and the question in your OP are two totally different questions.

aladdin might be one of the only ones from the 90s that didn't go full on horror. I mean yeah there was that part at the end where everything turns evil but there wasnt anything :nms: about it like other movies

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
Faster than light travel is impossible, so we won't be colonizing any planets. Except maybe Mars.
