God gave you eyebrows so your mom can tell if you are lying.

My 5 year old just the other day asked why we have eyebrows and my wife told
him about how we evolved from apes. Then he asked - "Isn't there gorillas
and apes right now?" We had to say yes but couldn't explain it to him why
they are still here :) Seeing a 5 year old asking those questions puts a
smile on my face for the next generation.
As for those of you who don't understand it. There are some really good
breakdowns of what it means on youtube.

Almost every day, something happens that reminds me of the scene with the
apes and the monolith. I’m not sure we’ve evolved all that much. Look, a
monolith. Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot …..

Well... impressive at the time it was made. Also a great way to make a load
of money with a movie with no discernable plot. Kind of like modern art. In
the end, it seemed more about evolution of some kind and making you think
about it and maybe our purpose in it. Obviously was stating we had help in
major evolutionary jumps.
But back to your question. As a movie for enjoyment...I found it a bit
tedious.

Is that a positive or negative for the movie? I forced myself to watch
it twice, I still have no clue what was happening, and probably won't
try again.

Maybe 2 more glasses of bourbon and I can go to bed.
