Atlantis Rising

The movie is nothing but gross conjecture for the entire length of the film. Will have to have eye surgery due to excessive amount of times I had to roll my eyes. Waste of time

Other then bringing on John Cameron for a cameo almost all the information is a repeat or rehash of the most probable theories on the fall of ATLANTIS. The most plausible of them being that the Minoan Island Trading Empire on THERA, now SANTORINI was built upon a dormant Volcano. This erupted with a massive explosion and venting of the caldera which subsequently collapsed. Thus creating a massive Tsunami which inundated the eastern Mediterranean. This occurred sometime during the 16th Centuries B.C.E. The eruption took some time to develop its full fury, so the Island appears to have been evacuated prior to the major eruption. The eruption on the Volcanic Explosivity Index was at the level Six (6), possibly as high as a Seven (7).

There are several other candidates, starting with MALTA, then keep moving West. Even beyond the PILLARS OF HERCULES (Straits Of Gibraltar). To take that theory seriously you would have to believe that ATLANTIS was best represented by George Pal's ATLANTIS; The Lost Continent (1961). A enjoyable fantasy film, but hardly science. If you have seen the other documentaries on ATLANTIS you might want to skip this one. If not watch it. Those who have, watch the movie instead. Its hokey, but fun.

This is an amazing documentary. No matter what people say. Very important and to me all new knowledge. I ended up so curious and not to long after that very sad that there was no next episode. Felt like an open ending. Dig it up, show us more.

... and could well start to rise again this year. As this cycle repeats itself regularly and as we are ushering into the "Age of Aquarius". Compare "Aquaman", King Arthur, Antichrist.

Atlantis sunk because of its decadent society and its reveling into black magic. But this coincides with cosmic cycles. Therefore, civilizations seem to develop according to the "Maya factor" (José Arguelles).

After the imminent pole shift (a geophysical event of global magnitude, expected for 2023), mankind will be made believe it has already surpassed Armageddon and that Christ has returned (supported by the arrivals of fake aliens), when in reality it is prone to the ultimate temptation (compare Mark 24).

Very interesting look at the origins / location of the city of Atlantis, based on the writings of Plato.

James Cameron only had a cameo in this, despite getting top billing. What this documentary does do, is analyse all the supposed locations of Atlantis, it's colonies across the Mediterranean and into the Atlantic.

It does systemically look at each proposed location, with some archaeological work being done, building a clearer picture of the civilisation until they reach a satisfying (to a degree) conclusion, with evidence, as to where the destroyed city should be.

They need to make a follow-up where they carry out some archaeological work in the final location!!
