    Default Emotional evocation: movies, concerts, mass participation

    So I was watching Real Steel last night & marveling at its ability to cause emotional stir; as I am normally anything BUT emotional.



    then an idea came to me..


    From my watching of others research (which is, mostly all I do) at sites like

    www.hollywoodinsiders.net :
    This site documents hollywood movies, their portrayal of Architypes & repetitive story lines (same story different context... Like how pocahontas and Avatar are exactly the same archetypal story with a different context)

    And

    www.theindustryexposed.com:
    This site focuses on the music industry, symbology & how nearly all major music artists are involved in Satanism (knowingly or not...).

    The basic ideas between these sites is this:

    Entertainment is NOT just that, it is there to tell a specific story & through symbolism it gives hints and clues, I basically do not consume "entertainment" with out these two sites in mind anymore.


    So there's my mind set in watching this movie & here's what I've noticed.

    This movie is HEAVY in a common theme from theindustryexposed which is this:

    De huminizing humans & humizing robots

    All of which seems to stem from:

    METROPOLIS:

    (notice the inverted pentagram, the female robot, the one gloved "mad scientist".. these are all very important and often repeated)

    This is one of the only shots of the ring girls in the movie I could find.. but who does this look like? (I got to see 5 of them in the movie, all looked like this or even MORE like the metropolis robot)


    The main charactor is a robot which is portrayed as creapily humanistic.. his name is ATOM which from what I recall is an ancient name of "GOD". in the movie ATOM fights Zeus (an angry dominating robot) and "wins" sort of.. I saw this as two aspects of "god" fighting itself... very interesting..
    there was MUCH more, some lines about zeuz being the highest god in the universe & someother lines that were "red flags" to me..

    As I sat there feeling these swells of emotion brought on by music scores & actors I had a thought...

    it seems that there is a common idea that we are attached on & "eaten from" but emotional vampires.. extra dimensional possibly (again a topic I'm not 100% sure of, but open to the posibility) & movie theaters, music concerts.. all of these are places where massive amounts of people gather and have symotanous emotional spikes.. this seems to me like a buffet of sorts, a well orcistrated, directed emotional surge every now and then.

    (as I thought thiis I got that wierd "rush" feeling in my head... not sure it means anything, but its worth noting, I've come to take it as a "you’re on the right path" sign)

    so not only are we being emotionally manipulated in mass via theaters (buffet style) but we also take this order... "to go" and have mini events in our houses...

    the whole idea of it made me wonder.. I watched the rest of the movie trying to not be emotonally provoked; it wasn't possible. I even shed a tear or two at certain points (again something I rarely do).


    so... anyone have thoughts on this? I typed this up at work & its not as robust as I had hoped; I'd be glad to expand but don't know where to start as its a bit of a complex topic.

    Love movies. I watch as many of them as I can. I have to admit I haven't watched Real Steel yet, although yours is the second endorsement I've gotten saying it was good. I will watch it now most certainly based upon your words here. I watch them in order to find the themes, as you mention here, although I have not visited those particular websites before, I engage in that kind of analysis pretty much on my own and automatically.

    I find it amazing what the masses of people are exposed to directly and generally with very little cover-up and yet, so many still pretend to be ignorant. I'm coming to the conclusion that is is willful ignorance, in fact. That people know it, they just don't want to say they know it because the implications are too real. It's good to live in a box for some, I suppose. Preferable to living outside of it.

    I have the perspective of a "newbie" to this.. I'll say that I never noticed the symbolism other than thinking it was an "odd choice" to use this or that... now its like a cold hard slap in the face..

    even stupid movies have the symbolism.. for example:



    not the clearest image I know but look at his eye makeup.....


    www.hollywoodinsiders.net changed the way I view videos, though I still am at the tip of the ice burg of understanding all this

    Here's a good one to start with :


    though the rest of his videos I find absolutely invaluable; he also sites his work very well.. amazing and inspiring research.
