You want us to invest two hours in something, but can't even bother to invest 30 seconds of your time to tell us what it is?

No thanks.

No career in marketing for you.

What I got from what others are talking about:

. . ."Comment: It's a two(ish)-hour movie that tries to show that

1. Christianity is a lie (that's the first 30 min.),
2. The 9/11 attacks are a conspiracy,
3. WWI, WWII, Vietnam are also cosnpiries,
4. The banking industry subversively rules the U.S. and has had a hand in all the aformentioned conspiracies, plus some others. " . . .

I had two hours to kill. And now they're two hours of my life I'll never get back. So I'll try to spare my fellow skydiving internet friends some time.

In short

In short, it's a film in the "conspiracy" genre. The makers know the truth of this conspiracy, and the rest of the world (6 billion of us) are blind to it. We all need to wake the f**k up, because the revolution is now or never.

Summary

First five minutes:

Montage showing the horrors of war, circa 20th and 21st centuries.

The first half hour:

Stories in the Bible, and Jesus repeat many similar stories cooked up throughout recorded history. It's all based on the zodiac.

Smart humans without answers to ultimate questions create religions. Religions are then used by power elites to control the masses.

The second half hour:

9/11 conspiracy talking points. Many of them. You've probably heard them all. Evidence presented to support each point.

Basically, 9/11 was a "false flag" attack committed by the US like the Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, and Tonkin Gulf to bring and keep the US in a state of war.

The last hour:

...answers who's doing this. The power elite and bankers. They're slowly enslaving the masses using war and fear as tools under the banner of religion and motivation of greed to eventually create one world state.

But if we all opened our eyes to the truth, we could rise up and start a revolution.

Five minute finale:

Only love can neutralize centralized power.

It goes on to say that we all need to realize that we're not weak individuals as the elite want us to think. We're a worldwide collective of humankind, part of the same whole, we're one organism and we should love one another.

So, the end result of the power elite is to create one single worldwide entity. But the end result of this revolution against the power elite the filmmaker wants is for us to wake up to the fact that we're one single worldwide entity. Whether the filmmakers see the irony is not clear.

Fin.

I'd rather spend the next two hours cleaning certain pieces of metal and polymer that I used earlier today, storing them safety, meeting my friends for dinner and a cold one (plus one, plus one, plus one, etc) and then go watch the simpsons or anyting else that looks good.

ps - 300 is coming out on dvd this Tueday. That's two hours worth spending.

In the conspiracy-addled spirit of the zeitgeist movie, I suspect you're JohnRich just posting under a different name/avatar.

Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

Yup. Some people just read too much Clive Cussler.

haha

That is what I have gathered from watching bits of it.

The first 30 minutes has some credibility if you take away the garbage conspiracy bullshit and just come out and say Jesus is a replica of several other gods/sons of that have occurred in previous cultures, the rest is pure bullshit.

Here is an important rule when deciphering what is true or not, if you need a 10 minute introduction montage of war footage with spooky/thriller/tension/intense/scary music it is probably a garbage internet documentary whose 'truths' would not last the first round entered into a scientific peer reviewed journal.
