"Flock together" also makes no sense.
Dogs can move in a solid pack regardless of their size, breed, looks or other qualities. A dog is a dog, so you can see poodle, german shepherd, mastiff, a couple of terriers and a dalmatian running in the same pack smoothly and without problems, if they have a good pack leader.
Birds? I have never seen a flock that includes different species(es?). It would be a sight to behold to see a parrot, seagull, pigeon and a few swallows (European) flying in the same flock. They don't do that, but the stupid idiom (not gonna say 'idiotic idiom') basically implies that ALL birds that have feathers, flock together. This is blatantly not true.
So when you break all this down, in the end, the idiom should've said something like 'animals often form flocks, packs, herds and schools', and left it at that. What did we learn from this idiom in any case? Absolutely NOTHING.
You can also think about how it's usually the same breed (or whatever word you use for birds) of birds that 'flock together', but not ALL of them! They still form separate flocks, even within the same species - there are WAY too many birds in the world for them all to 'flock together', so what the heck does this even end up meaning? NOTHING!
To add, it's extremely redundant to say 'flock together', isn't it? I mean, 'flock' ALREADY has the implication, connotation and meaning of 'grouping of entities', so why the heck would the word 'together' even be added there? Is it possible for you to flock all by yourself? No.
It is possible to flock separately? Yes and no - depending on the context and such, but usually the word 'flock' requires more than a couple of entities together, so 'separate flocking' is just an irrelevant concept, rendering the word 'together' even more redundant.
Who the heck was insane and stupid enough to create an idiom that has this many layers of incompetence and lies? It makes absolutely no sense.
I know this will offend people, but.. the music is nothing special - it's not as bad as in some other movies, but if you listen to its chords, chord structures, melodies, and so on and so forth - even the pure energy side is not very energetic - and then compare to the BEST movie soundtracks ever.. you HAVE to admit the music of this movie could easily be composed by any amateur with some VST instruments and a tracker.
John Williams, Alan Silvestri, even James Horner on a good day - have people forgotten what good music sounds like? Ever heard Vivaldi or some Fusion Jazz? Even the best 1980s and 1990s computer and video game soundtracks trump this movie by far..
I think this movie has pretty much bad casting (besides the returning actors and maybe the woman, who was OK), bad story, bad acting, bad visuals, bad musics (that sometimes rise almost to mediocrity - WHY WOULD ANYONE WORSHIP THIS?!), bad ideas, overused 'holographic' visual style, bad family drama, bad hero's journey (he's already rich, hacker, motorcyclist, coolguy thug but clean.. what the heck kind of male Mary Sue is this?)..
The worst thing is, there's no content, no context, no coherence, there's NOTHING here to grasp, nothing to make you think, nothing to provoke anything in you but boredom.. I wanted to give this a chance, but I'd rather watch 20 episodes of the worst Babylon 5 episodes and movies in a row than this again. It's that boring.
(Yeah, B5 had its moments, but mostly it's pretty childish and un-spiritual despite having supposed 'religious classes' and whatnot, it's all superficial - even the mages have to be TECHNO-mages.. sigh)
This movie is meant for (and worshipped by) people who would never understand why I chose Babylon 5 specifically..
Well, the original movie had SO much to fix, I doubt even Mauler could make a thorough video about it, so yeah, there was potential to make an actually GOOD 'Tron'-movie, maybe with less ridiculous a premise.
I hate these movies that are made by people who don't understand how physics, computers, souls or life works, and just make up whatever they want to happen.
So you can somehow be sucked into a computer game and be made digital. Yet you need to eat, drink and have no problems in adjusting to the digital way of doing things. This does not happen in real life.
A computer program can somehow live in human world, because soul and program are the same thing somehow. Sigh.
There are SO many movies with this kind of thoughtless ridiculousness. It shouldn't be so hard to make 'fantastic thing' that ALSO follows how the Universe actually works.. after all, there are things like astral world, other planets, RIDICULOUSLY MASSIVE size even on the physical planet, telekinesis, telepathy, teleportation, UFOs, time travel, etc..
But sure, let's make computer programs walk in real life with NO EXPLANATION for anything. Sigh sigh sigh.
They could've made it into an immersive VR simulation, they could've made Holodeck-type stuff, they could've made some kind of biochip implant thing where your soul operates both your physical body and the machine, OR is incarnated into the machine and so on, but nope. Nothing interesting like that.
They could've taken Tron, fixed all that's wrong, made it a more interesting, more relatable, more realistic AND more fantastic story at the same time.. maybe hacking combined with magic - surely two already interesting things that do not need idiotic embellishment..
I mean, even the old TV show 'Reboot' was better than the original Tron, which was a thousand times better than this.. 'movie'.
Crap, colorless, 'hologram' visuals, TOUCHSCREEN computers even in the 1980s (I HATE touchscreens!!), modern clichés, injected romance..
I mean, there's nothing solid there to stand on, to then look at all the things that do not make sense. I would have to stand on fluff to point at more fluff that makes no sense, and that wouldn't make sense for me to do. In other movies, at least I can stand on more solid ground to then point at the nonsensical clouds of ridiculousness, but how do you stand on nonsense to point at more nonsense..?
But the movie is in many ways too much like the crappy Dr. Strange movie that makes so little sense that Mauler was able to make around six-hour explanation of its stupidities..
Maybe this movie doesn't have quite as many quite as stupid things, but it has too many for me.. maybe I am too tired, maybe these modern movies just don't deserve more than a couple of groans and some vomit.. although predictably, I even said it out loud, people will WORSHIP this crap and lust for its simplistic 'music' (anyone remember Jon Williams and Alan Silvestri, from when music had actual interesting structure, chords and melody..? I guess not.)
I can't find many posts that do not absolutely drool and praise the Emperor's amazingly beautiful clothes.
The emperor COULDN'T BE more naked, and yet here we are.. best movie ever, no plot, no color, based on RIDICULOUS premise that sucked even the first time, people talking about 'Tron 3', even though Tron 2 doesn't exist (look at the name AND plot of this movie)..
There's just too much stupidity in and surrounding this movie to delve into, and people always praise the most ridiculous things that make the least sense, and have the most hideous, modern visuals (where's the color, SERIOUSLY? Where are the beautiful nature scenes? I realize even the first movie was just glorifying 'computer-made dull visuals', but this movie is even worse with its basically two non-colors and crappy dystopian non-world.
I expected this movie to be even worse than the first one, but it showed me a remarkable thing; how much I can get angry at something modern crapping on something old that I hated in the first place.
Why do I want to defend something that didn't even make sense originally, and was basically just another polished turd, just because a modern remake thing doesn't follow its idiotic rules properly..?
In any case, this movie is not worth my usual 'My Questions' or 'Doesn't make sense' lists, there's just too much fluff to base it on.
"So far we can't figure out any way to do faster than light travel yet that's in everything."
Speak for yourself. Just because cockroaches can't figure out how to make electric cars, doesn't mean they don't exist.
Faster than light is easy; the only thing keeping you from doing it is physical mass. Remove that obstacle, and you can already reach high speeds - for example, when you astral travel while your body is 'asleep', or between incarnations.
You can move physical mass faster than light, too. All you need to do is utilize higher vibration frequencies. It's possible, though somewhat dangerous to elevate your whole body system's frequency, but a more commonly-used and safer method is to simply create a spacecraft without any protrusions, use rich mixtures of purest possible metals for the material, make it as smooth and seamless as possible, and then just generate an energy field to surround the craft to isolate it from external impulses, like gravity.
All you need to do then, is to elevate the vibration frequency of the surrounding, protective energy field, and you can travel in higher realms, which means higher speed than light on the physical side can even try to dream of.
Anyway, back to the topic itself.
I started making a similar thread, but obviously more thorough. However, as the movie progressed, it became such a flood of stupidity, inconsistencies, breaking the movie's own rules, ridiculous reactions, and illogical, unexplained things, like smoke in a digital world, everything being SO PHYSICAL in a digital world (clothes instead of textures, really? WHY?!), gravity being EXACTLY identical.. yet people dying by turning into transparent cubes somehow (pixels are not 3D, so these are what, voxels?), and so on and so forth.
For a long time, I thought I was going to write a very long post just about how the 'Tron arcade cabinet has no power cables but yet has power on', the 'electricity working in an abandoned factory (who gets the bill), BUT!
"Will adults like this movie"
Is that a pun? I mean, you do not have a QUESTION MARK in your title, so one can assume you are actually making a STATEMENT instead of asking something..
To add a ninth point, the word 'Mario' would NOT be pronounced with such an italian intonation, not to mention stretched like that, if it was just the japanese way of saying 'Mario'. EVEN IF we don't even look at anything that comes before the word 'Mario', that whole 'Itsumi'-crap STILL makes no sense, because japanese normal pronunciation of 'Mario' is _NOT_ the italian 'maariooooooooooooooo', but short, tight, to-the-point-style 'MA-RI-O' (マリオ)with a very short 'O' at the end (even the english stretches it a bit, phonetically into 'määriou').
So even if we just look at the word 'Mario' and nothing else, that ridiculous claim still makes no sense.
Some commonly known, easy to remember, useful 'bit amounts' that can serve you well if you use computers a lot, program things, etc..
8 bits = 256
9 bits = 512
10 bits = 1024
11 bits = 2048
12 bits = 4096
13 bits = 8192
14 bits = 16384
15 bits = 32768
16 bits = 65536
18 bits = 262144
24 bits = 16777216
..
64 bits = You try to figure it out..
The problem with 'bits' was that people didn't understand what they were, what they meant, they just saw a number and an 'alien word', and just started thinking it somehow means how good the graphics are, or has something to do with the quality of games, or the quality of the system, so of course it was understandable but frustrating to hear AVGN ask something like 'where did all the bits go?' in his Jaguar review, but bits actually had nothing to do with how good something looked, sounded or played.
It was always just about 'how much data can a CPU cram through', and that's all it was. This kind of renders it at least semi-meaningless, as CPU power alone does not dictate anything - you need good artists, good programmers, good design/designers and so on, but the system can vary WILDLY outside the whole 'bit' stuff, as to how much data the system as a whole can handle, how many colors it allows, what kind of sound system it has, and so on and so forth. The bits are relatively meaningless considering ALL of the other stuff, so it was, and would be stupid to have 'system wars' around that concept alone.
You can have fast CPU in an otherwise crappy system, or amazing graphics and sound capabilities in a system with relatively slow CPU. It's like a movie's budget, really - a big budget does not guarantee a good movie, and a small budget movie can be really good. It just means the movie has potential for 'larger visuals' (not necessarily better) and 'better actors' (or at least more famous ones), so it can -potentially- be better, but there are SO many other factors to consider, it's almost meaningless or even counter-productive.
The next time you think of bits, think of PC Engine, think of Atari Jaguar, think of C64's synthesizer.
Bits aren't everything, and never were. If we were to calculate the bits of ALL the components and processing units in every single console/system, the bits would fluctuate quite wildly. Don't just think that 'the more bits, the better'.
Of course, it could be that this show is trying to tell that [these groups], [those groups] and [that community] are much worse with their dogs and stupider for not understanding dog psychology than the more mainstream people, but that would seem somehow 'racistic', right? So that can't be the case, now can it..?
Another reason why converting an existing planet into a sun wouldn't work, is that the solar system would lose the planet, and another planet would be needed to fulfill its function. Losing a planet from basically 'middle' like that would definitely create problems, so I suspect Saturn would have to fulfill Jupiter's 'duties', so to say, and other planets would have to take on the outer planets' roles and so on. It would be a real mess.
There's more, but I am sure this is enough for now.
..as people should know by know, we are in a 12-planet solar system, Pluto IS a planet, and the last planets have an almost vertical orbit, so they're harder to spot, plus, they're almost always 'behind something', which adds to the challenge. Earth's frog-perspective is pretty distorting, when you want to really see how things are in the Universe.
So orbits would change, this would affect atmospheres and magnetic fields of planets, which might shift even drastically, it would affect moons of planets and their orbits and so on.
Planets are not just some random hunks flying about in any which way, the sun actually keeps them in orbit, there are 'power triangles' they form with each other, and so on. Pluto is not a planet because it has been 'decreed' as such, it's a planet, because it performs the FUNCTIONS of a planet in our solar system. A wheel of a car does not stop being a wheel of a car just because a group of toddlers sitting in a sandbox decide so.
There would be upheavals and such, but in the end, after everything settles down to a balanced level, the solar system could still function as a solar system, just with lots of changes. If it lost some planets, it would just grab new planets to keep the balance. Of course overall the whole solar system would become much bigger than it is now, and solar flares might get much worse as well.
People would form strange cults about the second sun, some would call it the 'Sun of Truth and Justice' or whatnot. There are numerous physical, political, energetical and spiritual things that would happen. Basically the flows and travel routes would be disrupted and have to be 'rearranged' and all that.
Obviously, a typical Terran does not really think very Universally, so 'travel paths' might not even be on their 'radar', so to say, but I am just honestly answering what would happen if this solar system suddenly had a second sun.
I am not of 'Earth Science' (which is very lacking, dogmatic and 'guided' a lot by corporations, big money and the 'elite' powers that be to be trustworthy, not to mention it absolutely does not allow True Science to be even a tiny part of it - that being, of course, spirituality, as that is what existence consists of; The Great Spirit), but I can tell you something.
First consequence of a second sun (which most likely could not happen out of simply converting Jupiter into one - this would lead to SO many problems in any case, considering gravities, power triangles (hard to explain, but fundamental to solar systems and planets), people living on Jupiter's moons and so on, and so much chaos due to all kinds of shifts that even the actual sun might become somewhat unbalanced)..
Let's say there's a proper second sun that can come into the solar system as almost pure energy and then our sun's influence will 'activate' it (for the lack of better terminology).
There would have to be some kind of balance, or the solar system would just be basically destroyed and planets would fling far away from it. So we can imagine two suns 'orbiting' something inbetween them.
Of course, two suns could really not be that far from each other, because they would affect each other, so this kind of orbiting thing would be pretty necessary for any kind of balance. Can you imagine a sun orbiting a sun together with planets? How would the planets 'know' which sun to orbit, etc..? It couldn't work in any other way except the two suns basically being 'brothers' of sorts (I would call them 'sisters', but they are actuall expanding energy, so they are 'yang', male direction of energy)
This would create bigger forces to push the planets to much larger orbits, so nothing would have the same orbit as they used to. Some planets might be whisked away from the solar system, and other planets could take their places..
As Bruce Lee once said, people always mimic the mannerisms and the external, the motions and the sounds, the things they can easily see and hear, without understanding the CORE of what it actually is.
With all the Bruce Lee exploitation that happened during his lifetime and after he was gone, he could NOT have been more right.
People are such cargo culters, and yet they believe themselves to be somehow cultivated, elevated and spiritual. They think they are the peak of civilization, and when they deny life on other planets, they can truly feel like emperors of the Universe.
Too BAD that emperor has always been naked, but these people still try to convince all the other half-apes that they have beautiful clothes on. And the masses, as in people in this board, cheer as the emperor struts his naked, disgusting, sweaty love handles and rolls on stage.
Why are you like this, Earth people? Why can't you at least ONCE pull your head out of the sand (and hollyweird's buttocks) and see and tell the truth? Why can't you go against the grain for once in your life, at least when it's warranted?
I don't mind going with the flow if I agree with that flow, but when a movie is THIS BAD, and it shamelessly EXPLOITS the better movie THIS MUCH... just to tell us your typical warmongering non-story you have seen a thousand times before, WHY do people still worship it?
It should have left at least SOME mystery, it should NOT have tied everything so neatly together at the end, it should not have had a happy ending like that.. there should've been some kind of GRAND VISION this movie is based on, but nope. Nothing like that.
You get EXACTLY what the stupidest masses want out of a 'sci-fi' movie, and that's all you get. You even have the injected romance in it.. GROAN!
Why was this movie made? Can anyone tell me WHAT great vision it was based of? Was this movie necessary? Why would anyone EVER make a sequel?
All together now: MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!
I never experienced that anywhere else, but I did feel something slightly similar in two separate (in two different countries and continents) 'prayer rooms', where people meditate and pray a lot in big groups. There was some kind of powerful 'soul-cleansing' energy that I can't really explain, but it feels almost euphoric, you feel like you are walking on clouds, I guess, and it's like your soul gets to take a shower instead of just your body.
Animals can't create this kind of atmosphere, but dolphins can.
The last anecdotal evidence I am going to mention is that I read once how people during those ancient times were able to 'telepathically call' a dolphin, and they will heed that call soon after. For exampe, sitting on a beach and just concentrating and so on.
I decided to try this, and to my surprise, it actually worked, a dolphin came to check me out, and seemed almost puzzled/confused as to why some modern goofy bipedal entity can just use such an ancient call. I know, it's just my interpretation, the dolphin could've just randomly happened to swim there and been constipated for all I know, but it was a bit startling, as I did NOT expect it to happen.
In any case, there's so much more, but I want to go back to describing the movie and how disappointing it is.
Including dolphins in this movie instead of some actual spiritual content or message, even, just speaks VERY loud as to the usual stupidity these nihilistic fks always do when trying to convince they are good at something or spiritual. Look, it's a good movie, almost the same title as the classic, similar spaceships, same characters (HAL) and then analyzing and explaining the original! It's just as good!
Yes, it's spiritual and has a large, Universe-encompassing message about human spiritual evolution and all, look, we put DOLPHINS in the movie, now you must think it's a spiritual movie, right? RIGHT?
04) Dolphins are considered very intelligent, and they have proven their intelligence time and time again by being able to understand and perform complicated patterns and behaviours, plus, from my anecdotal evidence; they are VERY interested in computers and technology (when you try to show them something, they can often be seen to investigate your computer tech instead of what boring stuff you stupidly put to play on the screen - of course, nowadays this doesn't work very well due to computers having been reduced to portable one-hand rectangualr miniscreen ones that people, for some reason, call 'phones').
05) There are numerous stories about dolphins having rescued people, usually in an intelligent and caring way. Animals can mean well, but they don't quite have the capabilities dolphins have expressed a lot during history.
06) When you research Atlantis beyond some crappy articles written by lunatics and all these 'I will believe anything because it's a trend'-women, you can start seeing a pattern; dolphins were a big deal, and communicating and working together with them was normal back then.
07) I will just simplify this by resorting again to my own experiences, which won't prove anything, of course.. but..
The feel. There's no animal on the planet that can manipulate your vibration frequency, your energy, your feeling, the way dolphins can. They can really elevate your whole being to an almost surreal, heavenly level, basically they can almost get you 'high', I suppose. You can truly feel like you are being healed just by their presence.
This effect was almost a shock to me, completely unexpected and an enormous surprise. Once the doors opened and I was the first to walk into the area, I was overwhelmed by a powerful energy I can only call 'love'. It's very difficult to explain, some people might be too thick to experience it, but if you have any sensitivity to energies/feelings/atmospheres, this is something amazing you can experience.
Not 'depraves'.
'Deprives'.
deprive /dĭ-prīv′/
transitive verb
To take something away from.
"The court ruling deprived us of any share in the inheritance."
To keep from possessing or enjoying; deny.
"They were deprived of a normal childhood by the war."
To remove from office.
I mean, MAYBE you could interpret it that way as well, when you look at the definition, but I don't think it would make much sense, not to mention it's not really proper english that way.
deprave /dĭ-prāv′/
transitive verb
To debase, especially morally; corrupt. synonym: corrupt.
Similar: corrupt To speak ill of; to depreciate; to malign; to revile.
Similar: depraved To make bad or worse; to vitiate; to corrupt.
So in conclusion, there are too many weird things, too many coincidences, too many 'WTF'-moments that make the whole thing seem like a cartoon for the 'it being staged' being able to be completely be taken off the table of possibilities.
I am not saying he didn't get shot, but even if he did, there are SO many really strange happenings to rule out almost any theory, because nothing is clear.
In a normal assassination, facts would be on the table, everything would be clear, there wouldn't be mysteries, everything would make sense.
With this thing, almost nothing makes sense. How come no one happened to take video or photos of him from the other side? Because of the CONVENIENT 'backlight problem' the sun caused? I mean, if I were to stage something like this, this is exactly the kind of thing I would do (choosing the day based on weather forecast, choosing the time of day so the sun is exactly where I want it to be, choosing where to stand and so on - isn't it weird that the audience is in the back of him and not in front of him anyway?).
Sometimes a 'wild conspiracy theory' seems utterly ridiculous until some of it starts clicking and making a bit of sense, then you dig deeper and open a whole can of worms.
The biggest red flag to me, is the fact there is SO much shaming language against anyone wanting to be critical of the official story - why would they say it's 'sick' and 'wild' to consider all options instead of blindly swallowing whatever they're jizzing at us? Maybe the 'Trump falls after a loud sound' stuff was 'truth hidden in plain sight', which is a trick 'the elite' loves to do..?
"We told you, it's your fault for not understanding" is called 'plausible deniability'.
This WHOLE thing is so 'wild', that to me, it all having been staged actually starts to make a bit more sense than the official story, where the SS head doesn't even want to come to answer questions before Congress, so has to be subpoenaed (?), and STILL stonewalls.. weird, weird!
Then there's the 'cute story' that 'an immigration chart saved his life'. Can't have a major political 'shocking event' without a good story to exploi.. I mean, tell afterwards.
I always wondered about Dalai Lama.
He was allowed to do all kinds of things, he was basically paraded around by the 'people in power', and no one was against him at all. This makes him suspicious - why would they do that?
The same can be said about Trump. The 'elite' are not inept, weak and powerless. People that control basically this whole planet can't be so clumsy they couldn't assassinate anyone they darn well please, or get rid of someone if they really want them gone. People have disappeared in history, quite many people, in fact. Trump could disappear, but he hasn't.
There has to be a reason for it. As much as any rational entity would hate the zombie/clone that's called 'Biden' (that's most likely not the original Joe Biden, judging from photos and such), and thus want to support someone that at least can speak with coherence and has already been a president and shown to improve things.. it does seem a bit manufactured.
People don't seem to be able to see beyond 'leftists' and 'rightists' (?), to look what's behind the veil stringing these puppets along.
There are so many ridiculous things about this whole event, as in how incompetent the SS supposedly was, how a 20-year-old was able to just casually waltz into the area with a rifle and so on and so forth, it's hard to take it seriously as something that just randomly happened and wasn't scripted/staged at all.
I mean, if you wanted to stage something like this, isn't what unfolded exactly how it would have gone down?
I remember that female astronot (sic) video, where she was trying to tell us something, and immediately fainted. This happened twice in a row, then she was escorted off stage. Wouldn't something like this have been more likely to happen, if Trump was a real threat to the power structure or the 'elite'?
