Romans 10:9-10 King James Version


« Reply #440 on: July 26, 2010, 07:34:49 PM »

Have you ever read any Harlan Ellison? His "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" (1967) is a masterpiece.

Aren't alot of these artists, whether writers, actors, singers, or whatever, pretty much Satanists? I heard that they have alot of these ideas flow out of their heads because they have alot of demons, "familiar spirits"(bible uses this description for spiritual demons), et al on them.

James Cameron, for example, is heralded as one of the most creative minds in show business - however, what they don't tell you is that he's a high level Freemason.

I haven't , masterpiece huh? strong recommendation there , I will check into that for sure , thanks.

@America2  , Satanists? How can being creative qualify you as a satanist? I mean some people are creative , I think this talk of Satan does much harm to the human spirit and cheapens the gifts of art that we are given by God.

Have any of you seen this yet?

Its out this week here in the UK

Not yet but it seems interesting.

Splice (2009) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1017460/

Clive Nicoli (Adrien Brody) and Elsa Kast (Sarah Polley) are two young scientists who have been given the job of running a genetic laboratory at a large corporation to develop a protein using animal gene splicing from several different species. To speed up the process, they secretly take a chance and add human DNA to the experiment. What they get is a new organism which Clive wants to destroy, but Elsa convinces him to let it live a little longer. As the creature grows bigger, you begin to see a new animal species. The creature looks like a human female, but it has many features of several animals. The creature has wings, a stinger, can breathe under water, and can communicate with Elsa. They begin to bond with the creature and name her Dren (Delphine Chaneac). Their little experiment has gotten out of hand, and it could be the end to their careers if it got out that they created an animal/human hybrid. They move Dren to Elsa's farm in the country where Dren continues to transform into something stronger. Clive and Elsa finally learn the reason why they shouldn't play with Mother Nature. Douglas Young (the-movie-guy)

Like to put the light on a movie recomendation by Alan Watt

Dark City (1998) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118929/



What surprised me is that I never heard of this movie before considering how good it is and this movie now is considered a film noir cult classic.

Dark City, Alex Proya’s best film to date, the one that loosely inspired The Matrix  and countless other films through its visual style and narrative, tells the tale of a society run by beings with telekinetic powers who control the world, unbeknownst to the people. The original story and plot, coupled with its futuristic film noir look has made Dark City a cult classic, and while it was initially overlooked by many, famous film critic Roger Ebert called it the best film of 1998. Many would strongly agree. Source

Proyas also directed "I, Robot", a futuristic movie where robot machines were the major race. Reminds us alot of this trans-humanism agenda Tom Horn and Steve Quayle have been talking about in recent months.

Yeah-the NWO really slipped alot of their draconian agendas in movies right under our noses throughout the "peace and prosperous" 1990's.

James Cameron, for example, is heralded as one of the most creative minds in show business - however, what they don't tell you is that he's a high level Freemason.

I can't say for sure which is and is not an occultist/satanist, apart from the obvious (Kenneth Anger, Marc Almond, Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Roman Polanski, George Lucas, H.P. Lovecraft, Arthur C. Clark, et al.).

I don't necessarily quarantine myself from the writings of those who have occult influences or intentions. I am aware of the content and I take it into consideration, but I don't feel the need to avoid it. If my intentions are good "evil" will have no use for me. Now, music and art are another thing. I believe they can change your environment and have a definite influence on you.

Mr. Ellison is definitely well versed in the occult. His story "Grail" is the most accurate and correct in the description of "magickal operations" I have ever read.

He has also written many other well known stories.

A Boy and His Dog
I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream
Soldier From Tomorrow
(Ellison brought suit against The Terminator production company Hemdale and distributor Orion Pictures for plagiarism[1] of this episode and another, "Demon with a Glass Hand". According to The Los Angeles Times, the parties settled the lawsuit for an undisclosed amount, and an acknowledgement of Ellison's work in the credits of Terminator.)

"Repent, Harlequin!" Said the Ticktockman - this is a classic subversive/peaceful resistance/rebellion story.
The story is a satirical look at a dystopian  future where time is strictly regulated. In this future, being late is not merely an inconvenience, but a crime. The crime carries a hefty penalty in that a proportionate amount of time is "revoked" from one's life. The ultimate consequence is to run out of time and be "turned off". The story focuses on a man who, as the anarchical Harlequin, engages in whimsical rebellion against the schedule kept by the Master Timekeeper, or "ticktockman".

the taking of pelham 123

I watched it the other night and there was alot of bragging in this movie, about control of the stock market using terrorist threats to make money, and numerous other things it was pretty much right in your face.

was a interesting movie from that aspect. right down to the "if you are a good citizen you will let the (insert 3 letter company) search your house to prove your innocence.

I saw "Salt" the other day and didn't see Alex among the techs in the bunker scene.  There is a guy who sort of looks like him driving the police RV but you don't see him long enough to be sure (there's a brief shot in the trailer too).  So either IMDB is wrong or Alex wound up on the cutting room floor.  I don't think it's the kind of film (pro-CIA) Alex would want to be in.

Time Machine (2002): a time traveller goes into the distant future where a secretive subterranean race exploits a dumbed-down/disarmed above ground population (Eloi) for food and experimentation.  Interestingly, the violent underground-dwellers who go after the Eloi are controlled by more advanced underground-dwellers who have developed the ability to read and control minds.

Hidden Agenda



Synopsis
This political thriller is set against the backdrop of Northern Ireland's "Troubles" and directed in the documentary fashion common to British filmmaker Ken Loach's films. Paul Sullivan (Brad Dourif) and Ingrid Jessner (Frances McDormand) are American attorneys serving on a human rights group working to monitor cases of prisoner mistreatment in war-torn Belfast. When Paul learns of some information that may be injurious to the Thatcher government, he is killed, and a top-secret tape disappears. Assigned to the case, Inspector Kerrigan (Brian Cox) is joined by Ingrid in probing Paul's death, which seems to be related to rumors of a high-ranking cabal within the British government working to undermine the Irish Republican Army and liberal policies toward Irish separatists through violent and illegal means. Ingrid meets with Harris (Maurice Roeves), a former British Secret Service agent who's now turned on his former cronies. Together, they look for the top-secret tape. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

I don't know if it has been mentioned here but the 1986 Australian film "Dead End Drive-in" is about a post economic collapse society where the elite decide they won't want to see certain groups on the streets such as the unemployed and ethnic groups so they trick them into going to a drive-in by giving a special price for the unemployed and lock them up there.  Fun camp "80s" stuff.

Nicholas Cage just quit filming his current film project in LOUISIANA to go off to the Bahamas.

Nicolas Cage Quits Trespass Thriller Movie
http://www.newsoxy.com/entertainment/nicolas-cage-quits-trespass-movie-14079.html

After a film promotion with Disney, Nicolas Cage quits his latest Trespass movie and goes to the Bahamas.
Cage quits Trespass thriller movie. Nicolas Cage quits one of the latest film projects called Trespass and has retreated to the Bahamas. Trespass was only one movie that Cage is working on, and it quits just after a long promotional tour.

Trespass is a Louisiana-set thriller that was ready to begin filming in two weeks. Nicolas Cage is doing too many movies at once. In fact, the actor has pulled something of a disappearing act after a long promotional tour for Disney's "The Sorcerer's Apprentice." The film is directed by Joel Schumacher.

The movie centers around a married couple taken hostage by thieves looking for an easy pay day. Nicole Kidman is set to play the wife, with Cage originally set to play the husband before he changed his mind a few weeks ago and switched to the role of the leader of the kidnappers. Producer Avi Lerner is currently scrambling to find an available actor to replace Nicolas Cage.

This means that the project has to justify the film's $35 million budget. Cage was set to make a $7 million paycheck with the movie. The actor has been a steady performer for Lerner over the past few years, having appeared in "The Wicker Man," "The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call - New Orleans" and the upcoming "Drive Angry 3D."


So, Cage got bunkers meaning didn't take the time to think things trough it seems.

Not for the faint of heart or the squeamish.

Deadgirl (2008)
http://www.metacafe.com/watch/3022148/deadgirl_trailer/

A teen angst / Zombie thriller that shows the worst in human nature and the downward spiral that the desire for control can lead to. It's not the special effects in this film that I found nauseating. It was the behavior of the characters.

This American indy horror film had a foreign film feel. It is also dark...very dark. It shows a lost "gen Y" not caring or aspiring to anything and treating even those that they are supposed to care for with disdain and contempt.

It is a sort of Pre-apocalyptic vision of the world showing us the moral and spiritual vacuum that is the precursor to a "Road Warrior" or "The Road" style collapse of society.

In my opinion it's worth watching but it will disturb you.

Speaking of Demolition Man(1993), again, at the 3:00 mark of part 4 of this movie, there's dialogue saying how LA, California got "the big one" in 2010.

It's been awhile since I've seen the movie, but was reading the comments section on this part 4, and someone mentioned that somewhere in the beginning of the movie, there was dialogue over how a 2010 HAITI EQ was TRIGGERED. Shocked

"There is a final, even weirder, consideration, and that's Ian Fleming and his James Bond novels/films. Many people have always considered that he was 'leaking information in the guise of fiction.' Well, consider the movie 'You Only Live Twice,' where you have the following elements clearly displayed:


1) An international conspiracy that is extra-territorial, called SPECTRE (Society for the Promotion of Extortion, Criminality, Terrorism, Revenge...);


2) That society has a secret space program and is using it to interfere with Russian and American space launches (shades of the recent collision of an American and Russian satellite in orbit above the earth), and to bring the two nations to the brink of war;


3) That society has a heavy presence of Japanese criminal underground; and finally,


4) It is headed by an obviously German fellow named Ernst Stavro Blohfeld (played by Donald Pleasance, and thus, plump, middle aged, and almost Bormann-esque in appearance)


"So if one grants the proposition that Fleming is 'leaking information', then the conclusion is obvious as to what he's trying to say. And I believe this to be the case because in effect this is what my own research has been able to verify, in that, I have been able to argue points 1,2, and 4 are most likely true, and that would seem to indicate that point 3 is as well.

"So my 'op within an op within an op' scenario is basically that someone, with probable access to hidden space technologies, and with all but certain access to weaponized versions of scalar-torsion technologies, brought the Twin Towers down. That 'someone' is some sort of rogue extra-territorial organization, with deep and historical connections to the radical Islamic underworld, and that leaves me with, guess who, the Nazis. Thus, I believe the second level of that 9/11 conspiracy, our own home-grown elitists, were once again played the fools by the outer and innermost rings of it, in a sort of "squeeze from below squeeze from above" methodology, a methodology that elite has used itself numerous times.

Here's something the NWO-runned movies do a VERY good job of - with the one with the draconian agenda plots like "Minority Report", they would end up painting the villains in a "sympathetic" light, while the "resisters" to their agendas are painted in a negative light. Yeah - by the end of these movies, the good guy triumphs over the bad guy, but at the same time, especially if you're not awake, you end up SYMPATHIZING for the DRACONIAN agendas, and all of a sudden you look at the "resisters" as the antagonists.

Ditto "Enemy of the State" - toward the end when Jon Voigt had a confrontation with Gene Hackman, Voigt gave this sobby speech to the point where you ended up rooting for him and his agendas.

The same can be said for those revenge-yarn Lifetime Channel movies - more times than not, especially if you're in the very wrong mood, you end up rooting for the psychopaths, because they're painted in such a sympathetic light.

No wonder why the masses in this country are asleep, and are willing to bark at anyone who tries to tell them the truth - heck, it's happening in our churches now, with this whole Purpose Driven/Willow Creek Assoc New Age nonsense infiltrating inside the pews, and those who MERELY CRITICIZE these false doctrines are labeled as "troublemakers" and "dissenters".

I just finished the Book of Eli, i enjoyed it, Gary Oldman was great in it and the vast amount of shots taken of the sun was interesting, accepting the fact it was the cause of the desolation, but considering the subject matter of the movie it could be said to be symbolic of the Book.
That was the only symbology i got, apart from Oldman playing the part of Satan that is.

Got that movie "girl with a dragon tattoo" a few days ago, i've watched about half right now.
I'm waiting for something completely unexpected to drop from the sky, at this point the girl could be a mind-control victim, with black-tech hacking tools working for the secret service, who knows?
Seems there is a second part due out soon too.

Holy cow!  Shocked



George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Lawrence Kasdan Brainstorming Raiders of the Lost Ark (Transcript)
Radio show analysis of the Transcript: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1aRY_XLwxo

SAMPLE
...Then the discussion turned to how old Marion and Indy were at the time of the affair:

George Lucas — I was thinking that this old guy could have been his mentor. He could have known this little girl when she was just a kid. Had an affair with her when she was eleven.

Lawrence Kasdan — And he was forty-two.

George Lucas — He hasn't seen her in twelve years. Now she's twenty-two. It's a real strange relationship.

Steven Spielberg — She had better be older than twenty-two.

George Lucas — He's thirty-five, and he knew her ten years ago when he was twenty-five and she was only twelve. It would be amusing to make her slightly young at the time.

Steven Spielberg — And promiscuous. She came onto him.

George Lucas — Fifteen is right on the edge. I know it's an outrageous idea, but it is interesting. Once she's sixteen or seventeen it's not interesting anymore. But if she was fifteen and he was twenty-five and they actually had an affair the last time they met. And she was madly in love with him and he...

Steven Spielberg — She has pictures of him.

And now consider the dialogue of that scene in the film:

INDY: I never meant to hurt you.
MARION: I was a child! I was in love.
INDY: You knew what you were doing.
MARION: It was wrong. You knew it.
INDY: Look, I did what I did. I don't expect you to be happy about it. But maybe we can do each other some good.
MARION: Why start now?
INDY: Shut up and listen for a second. I want that piece your father had. I've got money.
MARION: How much?

Tomorrow, When The War Began - Second Official Trailer - Full Length HQ - 2

Release Date: 2 September 2010 (Australia)

TRAILER
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_945045

Based on John Marsdens popular novel which has sold over 2 million copies world wide.

TOMORROW WHEN THE WAR BEGAN follows the journey of eight high school friends in a remote country town whose lives are suddenly and violently upended by a war that no-one saw coming. Cut off from their families and their friends, these eight extraordinary teenagers must somehow learn to escape, survive and fight back.

Ref.

The Tomorrow series is a series of seven young adult invasion novels written by Australian writer John Marsden, detailing a high-intensity invasion and occupation of Australia by a foreign power. The novels are related from the first person perspective by the main character, Ellie Linton, a part of a small band of teenagers waging a guerrilla  war on the enemy soldiers in their fictional home town of Wirrawee. The name of the series is derived from the title of the first book, Tomorrow, When The War Began.

The books in the series were originally published from 1993-99, by Pan Macmillan and have been reprinted sixteen times. A sequel series, The Ellie Chronicles, was later published from 2003-06. The follow up series concerns itself largely with the attempts of society and the protagonist to regain a normal level of functioning in the face of the psychological damage sustained during the war.

Remember the 1997 Harrison Ford movie "Air Force One"? Remember the scene in there when Ford used a CELL PHONE in the AIRPLANE to call the White House?

I remember just about everyone I knew commented to me and just LAUGHED at that part after we saw this movie, because they knew making cell phone calls many, many, many miles in the air is impossible. "Just another leave-your-brain-at-home" type of movie...

However - when "reports" came out over the Flight that crashed over PA on 9/11 over passengers making CELL PHONE calls to their loved ones...guess what...noone, NOONE questioned it, made a big deal out of it, or anything. Even the 2 PA Flight movies they made a couple of years later showed scenes with these passengers making cell phone calls, and STILL NO outrage or anything.

I mean the Harrison Ford movie was released a MERE 4 years earlier before 9/11 happened - HOW can people just NOT know all of a sudden??

I hate to say this America2 but when people go to the movies they leave their logic at home.

When you are bombarded with a lot of Trekkie stuff like subspace transmissions and how gigahertz sattelite transmissions XM can leave the atmosphere but AM kilohertz can't and FM can't either but at night you have better range with FM, picking stuff up from Canada etc.  A lot of communications technology is technobabble to the average person.

Most people don't get how when you talk on a phone cell or land line how transducers are making verbal sounds traveling a sound-speed 331 meters per second or Mach 1 into electrical signals which travel at lightspeed go to the receiver phone then get de-transduced back into sound waves again all in under 1 second.

If most don't realize how this works then cell phones on air planes aren't going to set off any alarms either.

technology moves exponentially fast. in 1997, mobile phones could not connect from an airplane. in 2001 they could.

This is a list of the seminal thought experiments put to film which have been instrumental in offering an apparently dystopian world where one's first, human, reaction is "no one would accept that."  After the concept has been introduced, politicians and media-spin work in concert to say, "It won't be like science fiction; it will benefit mankind."  Look at the following movie themes, then look around at what has already been accepted as "normal."


THX 1138 (mandatory mind altering drugs to control a slave population -1971)
Soylent Green (overpopulation and Elite control -1973)
Wicker Man (Elite control over the population -1974)
Logan's Run (population control via computer - 1975)
Network (Corporate Media control - 1976)
Brainstorm (transmitting the mind across a computer network - 1983)
Robocop (militarization of police - 1987)
They Live (mind control and data collection - 1988)
Johnny Mnemonic (data as a commodity - 1995)
Gattaca (genetic code as a commodity - 1997)
Devil's Advocate (legislative control over society - 1997)
Eyes Wide Shut (rituals of the Elite - 1999)
Swordfish (government sanctioned crime to combat terrorism - 2001)
24 (good guys use torture to get information from terrorists - 2001)
Minority Report (high-tech police state using biometrics and "pre-crime" - 2002)
The Experiment (dynamic of prison abuse - 2002)
Control Factor (mind control through scientific dictatorship - 2003)
Jericho (factions within U.S. government set of a nuke false flag - 2006)
I Am Legend (benevolence of scientific intentions, martial law, and vaccines as the cure - 2007)

It Felt Like a Kiss (2009)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfIFeqScJz8



The story of America’s rise to power starting in 1959, it uses nothing but archive footage and Amercia pop music. Showing the consequences on the rest of the world and in peoples mind.

“When a nation is powerful it tells the world confident stories — they can be wonderful or frightening — but they make sense of the world.”

It Felt Like a Kiss is Adam Curtis’s (The Power of Nightmares) psycho-archaeological excavation into the mass psychosis that is the American Empire, buoyed by the most jubilant music imaginable. Built on fast-changing montages of archival footage, Curtis’s masterful essay fills a viewer with a devastating dread and a sense that everything we know is wrong. While America remade the world, its natives went bonkers: Lou Reed was given electroshock, Brian Wilson was ravaged by screaming in his head, Phil Spector became a nasty recluse. The upside: earthshaking, groundbreaking pop nuggets.

It Felt Like a Kiss is devastating: a neutron bomb designed to obliterate all of our shared stories.



Adam Curtis (born 1955) is a British television documentary maker who has during the course of his television career worked as a writer, producer, director and narrator. He currently works for BBC Current Affairs. His programmes express a clear (and sometimes controversial) opinion about their subject, and he narrates the programmes himself.

After attending Sevenoaks School (a member of the ‘art room’ that produced musicians, Tom Greenhalgh, Kevin Lycett and Mark White of The Mekons along with Andy Gill and Jon King of the Gang of Four) Curtis studied for a BA in Human Sciences (which included introductory courses in genetics, psychology, politics, geography and elementary statistics) at the University of Oxford. Curtis taught politics there, but left for a career in television. He obtained a post on That’s Life!, where he learned to find humour in serious subjects.

back to Raiders of the Lost Ark... Spielberg's slick. All of that really happened during world war II. Except it wasn't in Egypt; it was Ethiopia. and it wasn't germans, it was mussolini's vatican-run forces. and yes their faces melted when they beheld it. he mixes the truth with fiction quite seamlessly. The Ark still resides in it's home in Axum, Ethiopia. oh and the vatican recently returned the Ethiopian obelisk to it's home as well. the one that used to stand in St Peter's Square. the one mussolini stole as a consolation prize for the pope after failing to steal the Ark of the Contract from it's God-granted home in the land of the Kingdom of Solomon. Now somebody go ahead and call me a freemason. I dare you...

Nice lowbrow comedy with an anti corruption /wall street /white collar crooks message, silly fun in the summer of suffering.
