Good movie. Q3070
There are more of course. Q talks about some specific movies, or how certain events are like a movie, but I have been pondering the question, what makes a good movie? I have been thinking about the events currently unfolding, and movies.
Movies contain many elements. Heroes, villains, action, tension, suspense, character arcs, gadgetry, symbolism, story, overcoming great odds, journeys, special effects, dialog, schemes.... etc. Why would we be told to, think movie? One thought I've had is we were being primed to expect a movie level of absurdity to manifest in reality. Like the absurdity of the old Bond villains, set on world destruction. I always found those characters so extreme as to be absurd, but now it seems reality contains more than Bond villian levels of absurdity. We were being told, yes, such evil is real. Such plans are on motion. Believe that you are in mortal danger, and the future of humanity is in question.
This movie sucks. I hope the ending is soon and makes going through this hell worth it.
I’m ready for the good part too. I’m ready for the part where they can’t walk down the street.
Or they walk down the street heading towards the gallows.
That's the part I'm saving my popcorn for!
With extra REAL butter fren!
Shame shame shame shame shame
Violence. Merciless cold blooded executions of every traitor who willingly participated in each of the plots. Election Fraud, BLM riots, COVID, vaccines and mandates, bogus insurrection, betrayal of our freedoms and country. There should be tens of thousands
There are millions of people in on this.
That's a lot of blood. Enough to turn rivers red...
I'll take "Red Rum" for $1,000. Let it flow.
Hmm
Especially those that suppress information that can help humanity. Crimes against humanity
I fear that at this point, enjoying the "good part" can only corrupt my soul, that is to say, the only thing I want is justice and to see the evil crushed, in fact I day dream about them being slowly tortured to death.
The good guys winning and the bad guys basically spending the rest of their days in a long, drawn out, medically assisted period of mass torture, both physical and psychological, that would be the happy ending to this for me.
But that is terrible, that is a horrible thing to want, it makes me almost as bad as they are, or at least one could argue that. This thing has made me realize some stuff about myself, that I have an internal frustration rage mechanism whereby I want to just say fuck it all and want to see it all end, I'm sometimes so upset by what I see that I want to be dead because of how nasty and hateful this makes me feel and I would just prefer not to live than to turn into a demon.
If this is 5th generation warfare and predominately an information war, then I feel like a caveman because my inclination is to want to see things go kinetic.
Right there with you. I have to pray about it often. The human side of me wants them gone now, and painfully, but the spiritual side knows God needs to handle it, and He will.
It's a fine balance.
I struggle with this. When I’m praying about it, I acknowledge that they will all face God’s judgment in the end, but I want them to face man’s justice as well. I want entire classes taught on how this was allowed to happen and how the evil almost won. I want future generations to be taught how easy it is to be corrupted, and the price that was paid. I want this lesson spread to every corner of the globe.
100%. We're a day closer at least.
This has been pressed on me by the Holy Spirit: (Wuest Expanded Translation) (2 Timothy 3:1 Wuest) (1-5) This be constantly knowing, that in the last days difficult times will set in, for men shall be fond of themselves, fond of money, swaggerers, haughty, revilers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, lacking self-control, savage, haters of that which is good, betrayers, headstrong, besotted with pride, fond of pleasure rather than having an affection for God, having a mere outward semblance of piety toward God but denying the power of the same. And these be constantly shunning.
This is what THEY are; it is not what any of us wish to become.
That said, the current government in seat in this time in the United States is:
and Paul says in Romans: (Romans 13:3-4 NAS77) For rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same;
for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath upon the one who practices evil.
This is written to Christians, not the 'world' at large so that we must, for conscience sake, allow God's established government, that which is founded upon the Constitution, to be that vehicle of righteous judgment. We can't judge righteously and neither can our current civil courts, and so a strong judgment is to be rendered by military courts (the military is the only way).
If these trials are televised and so too the judgments rendered, it is not for "entertainment" it is so that this nation never again falls into a net set by the evil one to destroy us.
(Another president will never suffer again what President Trump has gone through)
Thank you. I like that.
So true. I often find my bloodthirsty side longing for public hangings, but God is in control, not us.
Justice. Something I've been praying for, too. For a long time. Now, so many people hurt now in a single country. Justice, come quickly. We miss you deeply.
Don't feel too bad about feeling how you do bangbangshotshot4, its natural to want vengeance.
Friend, shift your perspective!!! You’re living through one of the craziest, exciting, FUN times in the history of humanity.
Can’t you see what’s happening?? The walls are being torn down, the veil is being lifted. God is forcing the “rulers” hands, their time is out.
It may seem painful, but know things always get better and we would not appreciate what is coming if we did not have to walk through the fire first!
Yes, the fall of cabal is upon us, and as a wise man continually reminds us "our best days lie ahead."
Lately I've been noticing that society seems to be diverging into two distinct directions. One side has the ability to somehow see through all the lies and corruption, and recognize the truth. While the other side seems to latch onto the blatant lies being fed to them by the cabal (through the media and gov) more and more by the day, like they're getting sucked in and the part of their brain that computes logic has been switched off.
I know that a lot of people are experiencing a great awakening, but at the same time, a lot of people are doing the opposite (turning full on Nazi about issues) and it seems like the middle ground is disappearing.
I've been harping to my wife for weeks about this obvious divergence, to two opposing sides, and then last night something gobsmacked me. I was watching this video, and it talks about this EXACT scenario (two timelines) was shown by Looking Glass. The final four minutes of this video is the part I'm referring to.

One of my favorite digs by far.
Losing sleep at night is not fun. Spending all day researching, filtering through lies in search of small nuggets of truth is not exciting or productive. Being threatened with or experiencing the loss of your job is not fun. Being denied dental or medical care, also not fun. Being discriminated against and segregated from your community members is not enjoyable.
I have always disliked people who say that terrible things need to happen to appreciate the good things. It is an utterly untrue statement and almost always expressed by someone who has never actually experienced anything deeply painful. Terrible things happen because there is evil in this world. Period.
I appreciate your response, friend, and I can’t necessarily say you’re wrong. If you were alluding to me never having pain in your comment, I’d say you’re wrong.
Mom with terminal cancer with no cure in sight, job uncertainty as my company hints at vax mandates, and plenty of lost friends throughout this whole debacle. I understand the pain of this world very well, but I will not allow that to bring me down. Our greatest triumphs often follow our darkest moments.
"movie" is being used figuratively, not literally.
Read OPs statement again:
Wake up. This isnt a fucking movie.
Nope it isn't, but people can't believe it, that is why the contrast has to be made. All that "evil" you see in movies.... Thanos, Scar, the Emperor, Voldemort, Kahn, Sauron etc.etc. are nothing compared to the actual evil being perpetrated in the real world.
This is why Hollywood has flipped the script the last 6 years or so, trying to "humanize" the evil. Thanos wasn't "that bad", Maleficent was "just misunderstood "... all that crap. Trying to convince the idiots that evil doesn't exist, it is just a misunderstanding, a product of victimhood, and twist of fate.
👆 This. Absolutely. 100%
This is why when I explain to people about the forced abortions and the human rights atrocities happening in China, they're shocked.
🤣🤣🤣 It's funny to think: "For the sheep, this is simply the movie where Donald Trump gets a redemption arc."
All THIS ^^^^ in the above comments by u/ChronicMetamorphosis and u/Hemanbattlecat
For years now, these Hollywood types have joined forces with their ugly, less popular kin in DC in an effort to "drive narratives."
For the weak-minded, they have generally succeeded.
These days, every "product" from toilet paper to a political candidate is vetted, made over, focus grouped, test-marketed ad nauseum. These human products from Congress critters to freshy fresh starlets are pretty much led around by the nose and told what to do by handlers, hangers on, suckfish agents and advisors. It's all financed by the money'd folks who call the shots for their own selfish goals.
There are no coincidences.
It was all pretty much laid out in the 1997 movie that inspired their lot to set about really refining their efforts. Wag the Dog.
Check out this dialogue between lead characters Stanley Motss, (rich, famous, arrogant Hollywood producer hired to drive the narrative in support of a presidential campaign) and the guy who hires him, Conrad 'Connie' Brean -- spin doctor whose job is to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to polish the president's "image." Brean cares not one whit if it helps the country and the people he purports to represent:
FROM IMDB, Wag the Dog (1997), Quotes
Stanley Motss: I'm in show business, yes? Why come to me?
Conrad 'Connie' Brean: Well I'll tell you why, Mr Motss. '54-40-Or Fight', what does that mean?
Stanley Motss: It's a slogan, it's from the, uh...
Conrad 'Connie' Brean: 'Remember the Maine'!
Stanley Motss: Oh yeah, that's from - that's gotta be from the, uh...
Conrad 'Connie' Brean: 'Tippecanoe and Tyler Too'!
Stanley Motss: No, that's not, uh...
Conrad 'Connie' Brean: They're war slogans, Mr. Motss. We remember the slogans, we can't even remember the fucking wars. You know why? That's show business. That's why we're here. Naked girl covered in Napalm. 'V for Victory'. Five Marines raising the flag, Mt. Suribachi. You remember the picture 50 years from now, you'll have forgotten the war. The Gulf War, smart bomb falling down a chimney. 2500 missions a day, 100 days. ONE video of ONE bomb Mr. Motts, the American people bought that war. War is show business - that's why we're here.
These people are SICK.
One example: Cooking and dealing Meth is made glamorous and fun a la Walter White and Jesse Pinkman in Breaking Bad.
Exactly. They are teaching moral relativity through the media and academia. Oh sure murder is bad, unless you're killing a baby, or this, or that. Then it's stunning and brave. Sure cooking meth is bad, but Walter had cancer, he had to. Sure Dexter murdered people, but they were murders too! The anti-hero is poison.
Yes it is. You’re a spiritual being living in a physical vessel. Death is fake, totally made up to control you. It is a movie because you’re watching something in a world that isn’t really yours.
People who live as if death is fake are either reckless or hedonists
Very few people can actually live like that. The ones who do tend to be completely insane.
I don’t necessarily disagree. But valuing life and not fearing death don’t necessarily need to be opposites.
Want to test that theory?
Your actions have meaning. Your actions have consequences. Why do something 17 times if it has no meaning?
Typical Cave mentality.
I VALUE life. I try to do GOOD, but I am imperfect. Valuing my life does not mean I desire death.
You can value life, do good in the world, and not fear death. These are not all mutually exclusive.
Are the vaxxxed injuries & deaths good actors?
Have you ever watched the 90's disaster movies? Lots of random people die.
Random? How about your family will be protected?
