technique vs. art
[Read the article: "Cloverfield"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Oh ye defenders, i am simply unimpressed by LOST. It is all technique and no art. Aside from tune in next week because we gave you another hook it says nothing and does nothing. Now he has the Blair Witch Project technique down and I really don't want to sit through that.
I sort of expect JJ to play the adrenalin and shock and stress, but I really doubt he has the capability to make me think of feel anything because his characters are props, not people, and they aren't even good or bad. How could they be? They are just cardboard cutouts. Those back stories are just technique for the purpose of playing the audience just to stall and delay because that is the whole point of the technique.
You would get more content from someone on psych meds.
I admire his skill with technique, but that's all he has got.
But these projects don't get made without backing and that means that some psych pros will stick in their special memes, spins, political angles, bad behavior models and marketing hooks, which I wouldn't mind if it was a person or artist doing it but it is generally some corporation or ideological group adding "value" to the product. Product placement is bad enough, but fairly innocent compared to the "value" that is added now. Well done movies with nothing in them worthwhile except for some cons, a thrill and a shock or two.
The only art Ii see here is hype and that you don't have to pay for. I also missed Snakes on a Plane. Some movies are best used as an excuse to get in out of the heat and enjoy the air conditioned comfort of the theatre. It's a little too cold outside for that.

While you are buying MOON LOTS and the next 100 years of WAR

I am declaring myself Sovereign Emperor of the Moon.
[Read the article: Who owns the moon?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Hereto and forthwith all property owners of lunar properties under my jurisdiction shall pay a flat tax rate of one Euro per acre per year until such time as their properties are developed whereupon they shall be reassessed at a fair market value.
Since the Moon is above the Earth, all Earthly laws, covenants, agreements, rules and regulations are superseded by Imperial Lunar Decree.
Only a lunatic would challenge the authority of the Emperor of the Moon and besides, we need the tax revenue to build an Imperial Fleet of Moonships to defend ourselves from the Gas GIants who envy our warmth and proximity to the Sun and who despise mankind because we have bones.
Make all tax payments in Euros.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Why people believe it is a controlled demolition.
A minute before the collapse a camera catches molten iron pouring from the corner of the floor near the impact area. Jet fuel and burning office gear does not melt iron. Thermite and thermate produce molten iron. Thermite and thermate produce a white or light smoke just as is shown in the video. Thermite and thermate are used in controlled demolitions of buildings to cut through the supporting steel columns prior to the detonation of charges to knock the cut girders loose and cause the collapse. There is no other reasonable explanation for the presence of molten iron pouring our of the corner side of the building.
The only reason that we see the flow of molten iron from that part of the building is because the exterior wall had been dislodged by the impact of the aircraft. There were pools of molten iron in the basements of the Towers that remained molten for weeks. Most of the thermite or thermate charges were hidden from view, otherwise, how do you account for the volume of molten iron?
After the thermite or thermate burn was completed and the girders cut, the explosive demolition charges were set to knock the structure apart. This happens seconds after the flow of molten iron is seen.Huge beaems are hurled a hundred a fifty feet across the street and conrete is pulverized into a fine powder at the top of the building where the knietic energy would have been the least.
One of the beams that was cut with thermite or thermate is clearly visible in one famous photo of a fireman in the foreground in the debris pile and the melt along the edge or the beam is clearly visible. It didn't just shear or fracture, it was cut with melting heat. The angle of the cut is the same as is used to bring down buildings in controlled demolition.
You could get me to believe that some morons would hijack an airplane and fly it into a building, but i cannot buy them packing the building with thermite or thermate.
The molten iron doesn't make sense unless the building was rigged prior to the airplane hitting it.
Either you haven't looked at the videos or you think that steel girders just melt when you hold a match to them. Most of the official story is based on the steel being weakened by the heat with no mention or suggestion of it being melted. Because they know it couldn't happen without thermite or thermate which are used in controlled demolitions.
Well maybe they had a blast furnace from a steel mill up there.
All you have to do is go to youtube and do a search on theremite thermate and wtc or 911.
The country is run by proven liars and science has nothing to do with believing their lies.
The evidence was destroyed and "recycled" by people who should have known better.
