Right & Wrong

I just finished watching What The Bleep Do We Know, and am a little more pensive than before I watched; however, it didn't inspire me as I thought it would. What this movie really makes me think about is how did this documentary become a big-screen hit?! I mean, it's a good show that should elicit thought; but, I have a hard time seeing how it appeals to such a massive number of people.
Is this a sign of a societal paradigm shift? There are many things occurring in our (Western) society right now that, to me, seem to be signs of such a shift. There seem to be more forerunners - people going beyond the established norms. In the past, the forerunner was a rarity; however, now, it's quite popular to see people stepping out into something new. In this age, where 'the norm' changes so fast, it has almost become socially acceptable to be a forerunner in any number of fields. We are evolving.
I don't really want to write about any particular paradigm shift right now; but, suffice it to say that my life isn't the only one that's changing. We all are. I believe change is good.
