Which three films describe the situation as a WHOLE today?

[voltaire237]

wow, some epic suggestions there.

I know it's not in the outlined format, so forgive me, but here's a pretty accurate three films about the FUTURE of the world.

When the price of oil becomes too high, the world turns to the railroad industry as the only ecenomical method of transport, while they look for the answer to the world's energy crisis:

Great pick there guy.
that's completely what I had in mind. The writters must have their fingers on the pulse.

Every episode is a nod or pointer to something true.
I remember in the original series an episode with alien abductions, where they were trying to get to the bottom of it.
Turned out it was the miltary industrial complex doing experiments on people and using NLP to make them think they were being abducted by aliens.

I honestly dont know how they get allowed to screen stuff so close to the mark...
I guess it goes over the heads of most.

Voltaire, your comments are great but.. you cannot use NLP to make people think they have been abducted. You may be able to use hypnosis, or drugs + hypnosis, to make people believe stuff, but hypnosis is not NLP, it is hypnosis.

People often give much too much credit to NLP possibilities.

I see what you're saying.

Since it's called neuro linguistic programming I think of everything to do with hypnosis to be nlp, but technically you're right.

With drugs, hypnosis and NLP they could**

Excellent choices across the board.

I'd add

Just because its a gift and a game one accepted, doesn't mean you can stop it when it goes off the rails.
