Zeitgeist: Addendum
Under the surface trying to break through deciphering the CODES... I have the 10-DVD trilogy box set. Can you kindly tell me what counter position in the movie/DVD did Neo's ID card pop up? Not doubting you per se...

there's a Cold War coming on the radio I heard? Is Chris Martin & The Band commenting on the political spectrum & how we have convergent & at times divergent, views on it all? Partisanship, bi-partisan, hegemony, sovereignty, autonomy...

He said pretty baby won't you marry me? She said you'd look $hit upon my family tree. That's when he realised he had to start..? The Daily Mail UK? Hmm, as Oasis would sing: The Shock Of Lightning indeed. BTW Mc_Squared, can I kindly suggest I believe that Sacred Cow has been photoshopped & rigged till the cows/satellites/paparazzi come home? No disrespect now aye...

Aliens come flying from the underground: if you can see it then you will SOS understand..., ALIENS VERSUS HUMAN BEINGS? Just saw this some two hours ago & already it's having an effect on me (make love not war - the power of love must overcome the love of power). According to the film human beings are at: x1) Precipice & turning point in history, we either self destruct &/or or evolve? y1) We all have the capacity to change, but the ultimate 'no-middle-ground' question is will it be for the good - or the bad? I saw the original some years ago on DVD, so I had 'point of reference' on what the movie's political & idealogical aims are. The 50's version had fear of Communism *?* (not to sure of that, but I'm gonna re-watch it to make sure). This 08' version 'adapted' hitherto with a Zeitgeist fear of ecological/environmental/military destruction. I must admit the ending was abrupt, & initially shallow, plus lacking an epilogue. But baby, that's what DVD is for (aka deleted scenes & alternate endings). Hence when it hits the shops at a cheap clearance & affordable price, I will snap it up gladly. There are so many subtle themes in the film (power plays, chain of command, hierarchy, religion, redemption) so much so that if I ever become a college teacher, I would definitely use this film as springboard for discussion & further exploration of these issues; that effect & can change the world. Another potential morale/message (science-fiction revels in this) is nothing ever stays the same, hate can become love (vis-a-vis) vice versa: all done within an unpredictable/'chaos theory' time frame. IMHO the special effects played a secondary part to the drama & emotional resonance. Keanu Reeves was splendid & a key contributor (maybe they should have called this film The Matrix 4: Redux). Jennifer Connelly was intense & did enough (she looked pretty with her black hair). Will Smith's son was annoying at first, but later you grow to sympathise with his character for losing his dad: he simply missed the hell out of him. So yeah, add the theme of mourning/child psychology/parenting to the list above. Cathy Bates (I will always remember her for her role in Misery - based on a Stephen King novel) exemplified the gun-ho nature of American ...let's invade Iraq, Afghanistan shall we... politicians.

You cut me down to size. You made me realise. What I could not see. I could write a book. The one they'll say that shook, took it? ABM glorifies mental illness. A dormant form of emo vicariousness. Pardon my unpolitically correct view. What next? Some Russel Crowe fanboy going on a shooting spree against his mathematics college professor in Virginia Tech, US of A 09'. Oh my Science, I was given Ritalin or Prozac & I couldn't go to sleep, nor get my equipment up at the college after party..

Blame it on a rush of blood to the ... .. ? I presumed most teenybopper fans could digest that lingo. I was trying to simply go down to their level of language, text messaging or speech. The Village cemented my fandom of M Night Shyamalan. I then watched Lady In The Water some years later in the theatres. Back on topic. TV's lead actor Michael Pitt has a killer French/American film called DREAMERS. The twist will have you rushing for the dunny, Woolworths & tampons.

Hang on a minute just a minute please...(The World Turned Upside Down) Retarded? Are you a Nazi? Are you a terrorist? The moment you say someone is said expletive, is the moment you concede to defeat on a point of debate. HA, you give Coldplay fans a bad name. No wonder this site is an unintellectual teenybopper fest of BS & posing. I suggest kindly to read up on some George Orwell , or Jane Austin. If you are game enough & aren't a homosexual deviant, try Sigmund Freud...if your small skull & small brain can handle it. As Travis would sing in 12 Memories Peace The F%^K Out as there is too much $hit pouring out of your unintelligible mouth.

I could feel it go down, you left the sweetest tase in my mouth: the silver lining in Her clouds... I concur. The Spanish version has the hottest chick in the world. I even stole a DVD 'Usenet' copy from my cousin, who is a IT tech geek, he got a diploma in TAFE. I found it really visceral, palatable & believable. Anyway I better Run, I gotta Patrol the Snow outside my house, it's actually raining hail here believe it - or not. Plus I gotta go Down to my neighbour's Cellar door & fix their plumbing. I might watch the USA version with my best friend's niece later tonight. Her family has like a stockpile of Region 1 DVDs imported from Amazon.

The Plague (1665) vis-a-vis The Bushfires (2009)
Look at the $tars, look how they shine for you, & everything you do. YOU'RE skin & bone, turning into something BEAUTIFUL... I tried & I failed. My therapist loved me like a little dog. She fed me Freudian scraps that are very yummy, but have a long term placebo effect...that just left me begging for more. Perhaps? Don't make blind assumptions. Who knows? I may be a ''No Bravery'' fan... Creepy stalker, falling in love with strangers is the new emo trend isn't it? I trust you would know MC. I G2G outside now & hammer an imaginary nail in my fantastical & even more make believe shed...
