The first fly around and back towards the black hole when it gets really close (:50) actually made me irrationally nervous, like looking over a ledge when you are totally safe. I agree that the jerky cam was a great influence to convince my brain this was scary.

Maybe I watched Stargate too many times where the open gate got too close to the black hole and SG1 had to do their thing again. Where is Sam when I need her ... Uh and those three guys too of course.

i really WANT to watch this video, truly i do. but i dated a paranoid schizofrenic electronic nerd for toooo long to watch anything with tesla in the tag. god damnit!... i still have to tell myself about twice a year that stargate isnt real.


and yet you use Tesla's products every day now don't you?

its not just the broken logic that amazes me. Its the sheer amount of effort involved into basically creating a feature length video. It's worth watching the whole thing if you can. I had it open in a window while i did other stuff and i have to admit the crazy doesnt hit maximum until the last part. Not sure if this guy is crazier then

I Think it might be a tie in the craziest ever competition

School, no. But I did infer much of this from reading copious amounts of H.P. Lovecraft, watching the entirety of Stargate SG-1 and raiding in the World of Warcraft.

As for the memory wipe technology: "Namtab pots!"

Fiction informs us the future...

Now, describe for me why a New World order is a bad thing.

In reply to this comment by The_Dragon:
Can you describe to me why a New World Order is a bad thing? How are we supposed to fight against the aliens if we're not under one?
Sure suggest you watch these videos and get yourself educated!

First start with knowing what technology is kept from you.

Then watch this video - Now tell me they showed you this stuff in school. Highly Doubt it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ewshk_vjCKA&feature=related
Plus if you actually do your homework you'd know this stuff by now.

Thanks for listening at least most don't even comment.

Beginning shot looked like a stargate!!

yahweh's return!

righteous fire and brimstone!

simultaneous demonspawn radiation, and implosion!

dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria!

and you broke the fucking internets, dillhole!

We live in some really scary fucking times, my friends. Even if Obama wins, how long will it take for him to fall under an assassin's bullet? If McCain wins, how long before the nukes are flying (launched by him or Palin?)

I can only hope that the LHC is really some sort of Stargate operated by the NWO/Illuminati/whatever-the-fuck and there are a few of us that get off this rock before the roof caves in on the rest of us... (I am kidding of course...I do know what a particle accelerator is )

^ We've got to pay for the Stargate program somehow.

Satan's stargate? I think he's been playing too much Doom...

etc.etc....But the discussion - is there anything to discuss with a bunch of pigs? No. Form intelligent discussion, please.

I believe you may be confusing irreverent, ironic humor with sexism.
Frankie says relax.



Anyway, it isn't true at all that there are few movies with female leads. There are loads of them... they just are often geared toward women and men have little interest in their subject matter, so we don't go and see them. Removing half the entire potential viewer-base will sink most movies.
Action movies tend to focus on male main characters more than female, at least in the past. They're shifting toward more balance these days since a badass woman can be ... awesome. Action movies were/are geared toward male viewers and thus have male leads. Men tend to watch more movies than women in general so movies geared toward men [or toward both men and women, or neither] tend to be blockbusters. In addition, men are by definition, in general masculine. When a woman takes a lead role in an action film (with marvel as one of many exceptions), she is typically masculinized (if that were a word) to fit the requirements of the role. The Alien series is an exception and an example of this. The first two movies essentially show her as a feminine, but resourceful woman. The fourth? Yep, she's a man. I don't acknowledge the existence of the third.

Anyway, if you haven't seen a movie with a female lead, you're not watching any movies. There are TONS of strong female characters in countless movies. Perhaps you're choosing the wrong ones. Try the Alien series, X-men, the Fantastic Four, The Incredibles... All "action movies," all with strong female leads.

On TV: Heroes, Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Smallville, 30 Rock, Stargate/Stargate Atlantis, Firefly, EVERY Star Trek series except the first one, Babylon 5... ... ... ...........
This list would get longer than I have energy to type; you get the picture.

All these are shows with STRONG female characters in leading roles. It may be that men say [amongst other things] that they're hot, but heck, so what. If we weren't attracted to women, it'd be the freakin end of the species.
