<_> The Internet's own Boy </>
-
C. R. 2014 Internet's Own Boy Film LLC, Aaron Swartz
-
What we enjoy on the Internet was fought for by visionaries that could look
into the future and see a need for access to knowledge. Because that would improve mankind.
However some of the information garnered may have personal information that could be
misused or violated.
Aaron Swartz was a great brain. But with great power comes great responsibility. It seems
Aaron's brain got to big for his britches and he "hacked" Information centre's at his peril.
The powers that be saw this as self serving and wanted him bridled.
As I remember it, the video of him going into a server room to download info was vilified as
crook behaviour. At the time I thought the guy was creep too. As worms and virus's were rampant
at that time.

note: the FBI guy looked like something straight out of a "Simpson's" cartoon.

>-- The Knights Templar [rise and fall] --/<
-
C.R. 2017 IMDb One Media, Philip Gardiner
-
This researcher steps into the myths. The research follows some language changes.
Myths non the less. Serpents, sea and land, dragons, bulls and warrior nuns that ran banks with letters of credit
back ~1100AD. They are traced to King Solomon's temple in Jerusalem.
And the connection to far east with Maro of Indian Dynasty. They sound like Sikhs to me. I believe he does mention Sikhs.
But makes strong connections to French Kings and Popes Italian: read Roman. I heard no mention of Moore's: read Islamic.
No mention of Muhammed or Allah, born ~461 --- THEIR arch enemy ! He does mention Saladdin and 26,000 warriors
being defeated but fails to mention Saladdin comes back with 200,000 and they are driven out of Israel. Thus leading to their fall.
Somehow some get burned at the stake ! There was your Inquisition ?
They regroup and join other wings of Christianity not Catholicism ! I'm sure some followed the money to Catholicism.
Mercenaries for the Cross ?
King Philip iV & V had the power to disband them around 1307 - 1312.
Saint Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153) restored some faith in the Templars.
By 1244 Saladdin still alive I guess.
I'm surprised Gardiner couldn't link Mount Sinai the Ten Commandments and the Arch of the Covenant.

If all that can be believed ^
It looks to me,you can't speak of Templar history without including: Romans, Gaul, Christianity, Catholicism, Jew
Jesuit, and lawless times.

Shane
-
C. R. 1952 Paramount Pictures stars Walker Jack Palance
-
IDK, those homesteaders of anywhere in the U.S.A. weren't easily frightened.
Especially if no law was around. Talk tough to them once and a second time was terminal.
But "Shane" is about the righteous vs greedy. And the proper silent type sacrificing for his friends.
-
I wore 2 guns when I was little. And if I didn't like you, I would give you a double tap.
And it all came from watching Westerns. And Mighty Mouse, where the Mouseketeers would
need to open a safe to get to the cartoon. You better believe it was that valuable !

- - The Conjuring3 - [the Devil made me do it]
-
C. R. 2021 Warner Bros. stars Vera Farmiga
-
So their client's defence is demonic possession ! So the judge looks around in bewilderment.
They saw no reason to give him a speaking line.
A little boy is harassed by a demon but and older boy says, "take me", saving the little boy.
Things get demonic, good stuff.

< The Sister Brothers > >o<
-
C. R. 2018 Annapurna Pictures stars Jake Gyllenhaal
-
I love it when everybody in the movie is stupid, in their own esoteric way.
Bloody 1850s people are no different. Even the smart guy was too big for his britches.
They found a toxic phosphorous chemical or made it, that made gold light-up in the dark.
Then they got all poisoned by it. Smart guy ends up blowing his own brains out.
One guy needs to have his arm half cut off.
Of course we love movies where the bad guys can shoot.
Sadly it grossed only ~1/3rd cost.

- The World to Come -
-
C. R. 2020 Bleeker Street stars Christopher Abbott
-
I'm sorry ladies, but you are not vetting your men with any kind of righteousness.
Suffering needs to be understood as not good ! Just because god may've relegated you to
a subordinate position [because that was to minimize violence] doesn't mean you get to past
that suffering along ! You can't keep falling back on love.
-
That said, these two 1860's home makers in NY state start digging on each other. So smooth was their
approach that they almost fooled their men. And you think a better world will come ?
The girls were very likeable, Affleck thinks he's a Thespian and Abbott is made out to be a douche.
I'd watch it again.

Thank you for your Service
-
C. R. 2018 Dreamworks and Reliance present Rahway Road Product stars Amy Schumer
-
This is about soldiers having a hard time adjusting to noncombat life. It seems the worst part
is getting your brain "unscrambled". And as of right now I understand your country driven plight.
--- Mostly it's blue eyed men I'm starting to disrespect. You've cleaned your genetics to blue-eyed
righteousness yet you are still cannon fodder ! Is this truly where you want to be ?! Suffering for a
political or arrogant or religious reason ? Albeit flag driven.
-
Now stow your shite warrior
but then you were never that smart.
-
The children hurt by yourn will follow mankind into the future, pissed off at all of us.

---> A Streetcar Named Desire ^<l>^
-
C. R. 1951 stars Marlon the brute Brando
Did they even talk about bi-polar in those days ? That girl was Cra.
And the Karl Malden character, tame that stuff, if she looked that good.

^v The DaVinci Code v^
-
C. R. 2016 Sony Pictures, director Ron Howard stars Tom Hanks
-
Surprised I hadn't reviewed this.
The book promotes the "Holy Grail" as Jesus' bloodline.
Of course it must be intrigued with a murder.
That Mary Magdalen bore Christ a daughter. Why put that burden on a child ?
Females push the envelope of mankind...
Mary Mag was the strongest of the disciples. She has shown herself twice that I
know of. Southern Gaul was her territory. Once in Lourdes 1858 and Fatima, Portugal 1917.
It could only work this way, Jesus took no wife until Mary Mag. The first 28 years of his
life are quiet. Something about abstinence and all that righteous BS. If she took another
husband he would've impured her holy challis. And the church just didn't want to go down that rabbit hole :]

The Comey Rule
-
C. R. 2020 ShowTime stars Brenden Gleeson
-
I thought the F.B.I. Dir. J. Comey was timid in the face of "the Donald" when he milly-mouthed his interactions.
I thought I wrote something here but can't find it. But that's the inference the news feeds fead us.
Maybe now I see how and why.
--- I would've thought the C.I.A. would've handled much more or at least backed up the F.B.I. in this scenario.
The President can fire the Director of the F.B.I. when he wanted. J. Edgar Hoover had filth on some Presidents and that's
why he lasted 48 years. But right off the bat Trump wanted "loyalty". With Pres. Trump being so filthy J. Comey couldn't
be alone in a room with him.

Hawaii
-
C. R. 1966 stars Julie Andrews
-
I knew this movie touched on some tender points when I saw it the first time.
But I didn't see the Max Von Sydow character as such a zealot for the bible and Christian Church.
Almost as dogmatic as Hitler.
The killing of tainted babies could use some niceness. But all of them ? We don't kill our tainted
babies but should one with a tainted psychosis ? We can almost check for schizoid and yet 20-30
years later the cops have to put them down and the parents get big money from the city- it's almost
a scam. re Jim Jim Chasse.
--- Oh and the incest, well there you go.

Gloria
-
C. R. 1980 by John Cassavetes stars Gena Rowlands
-
I liked this movie because I liked seeing a mother figure protect a child.
The kid a little douche, I thought acted well, maybe not.
-
The remake with Sharon Stone was all about her. Kid played second fiddle.
I liked the first one better.

The Human Stain
-
C. R. 2003 stars Nicole Kidman
-
Matches my life in some ways.
And when it was done, I thought, well, so.

The Hidden
-
C. R. 1987 stars Clu Gulagar
-
Had some pretty good action with an alien symbiote.
Danny Treo sighting. Stupid parts investigator starts playing with alien technology blows the precinct up.

The Deer Hunter
-
C. R. 1978 stars Christopher Walken
-
So I guess Walken was born with the gigolo gene. Now to your best Walken impersonation:
I don't...know...what was worse...the factory life [the smelter of hell], or being tortured by the Viet Cong.
My face was . smooth . back then. 19 and 78 . Only . 44 yr ago.

It did get intense.
