OutStanding's inSPIRAtionaL movies

by Out-Standing • Created 12 years ago • Modified 7 years ago
You do have to be :
I) ABOVE 30 years old,
2) IN SEARCH for a guide / truth,
c) WEIRD ENOUGH to accept another explanation of the movie and not that "revealed" by specia effects, explosions and/or fight scenes
AND,
OF C'URSE,
last, but NOT least,
you have to be
a frustrated idealist, poor as this existence allows you
because, if you're from usa, england, canada,.... an arrogant digestive tube that breathe through money, you'll understand 5hit. Look what capitalism (=demoncracy enforced by moguls from so-called developed countries) gave us : progress (=commerce) over Nature; wars, conspiracies over spirituality and compare the soul boundaries of these capitalist countries with China, Japan, Thailand, India societies. Compare "motivational" speech of Ben Kingsley from "A sound of thunder" -min. : 7-8- with Idea behind the "K-Pax" and you'll understand why.... you'll NOT understand 5hit; why we ALL deserve to be erased and let Nature learn from mistakes and creates the best individuals : NO senses NOR gender to control through them our pleasure & pain, constraining our will & limits. This way religion it will be seen as a hilarious joke. We won't become robots. Sadness and & joy will be lived inside us. We'll just eliminate.... the costume. 'Til then embrace communism where, even if you are suicidal enough (=have the courage) to think of a scheme to trick the state to make an "honest" buck, you're caught before you make first step and prosecuted with your whole family, so.... you really can't f.... there without permission. What I'm tryin' to say is that freedom is an illusion; a waste of time, a “choice created between those with power and those without it”, as French man from “Matrix” is keep saying, but you won't get that from "Spider 5hit", "Trans5hitters", "Lord of the 5hit", "Harry 5itter",....

And.... watch out for IMDB reviewers ! They are only humans.... Some of them, at least.... Most are just pieces of 5hit bored of their pathetic horrible lives and came here to aerate their caries.
Try to FEEL empathetically movies : read between lines & beyond images (to trans-pass your limits). This technique works at its finest when you're.... smoked and that's coming from a Bender fan, but.... don't you dare to think that I tend to overreact, or see things differently when I'm smoked cause.... I've started OCCASIONALLY doing it about 2 years ago, but most of the movies I watched previously -naturally, of course-, so.... "why don't you go outside and-go-f....-yourself" ? Also, die. (<-Please, consider this, -and NOT winning lottery-, my long awaited so-called luck, my chance to smile I.... deserve).
The Secret ? To make it even more interesting I listen simultaneously 2-4 songs, but nothing about brainwave -binaural- beats just.... some, most of the times, instrumental trimmed soundtracks and sometimes even entire -normal- song. Try it and feel for yourself where -MUSIC- leads you when you Listen -It- & Watch -this marvelous list that pointing- something reflexive and refreshing at the same time.
And, don't worry. If nothing of the above worked, it's not just into you. Go and.... do your mortal futile duties as an inexpressive obedient citizen and not something immortal as a traveler into this world.
I have most of the movies so, if you don't find any, ask and I'll put a link where to dl. from.
=
I've just seen...., today, 15-I-2013, an Idea, but.... I won't spoil, nor manipulate talkin' about this.... sublime poetic art. This will be my ultimate test so you must understand I keep It cloaked so I could see who's really lying tryin' to impersonate some1 who's not. Still, it is somewhere there, you just have to give up to this life and be more concerned what's hidden beyond smoke curtain. "For all are born only to die / And die to be reborn", Mihai Eminescu - The Evening Star.
