Chad is Dead Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Damn no responses...well I finished the whole thing and I honestly don't know what to say. I am blown away with this movie and would love to hear others' feedback from it wether it be good or bad. I want to know both sides of these arguments before I make my mind of up what to think. I'm actually going to go do some research now and try to find out about some of the things I jotted down while watching. Most notibably being the "North American Union" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbird Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Just watch it if you want a good mind-fuck. I never finished it...but I really should. Oh and take notes while you watch, there's so much information(wether it be true or not...)that you may want to take notes just to get a grasp of everything. Very good way to spend 2.something hours.

Chad is Dead Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 ya I can't provide cliff notes because I don't feel like I'm informed enough to make a opinion. After watching the video I feel strongly in a certain way but would like other opinions from informed people that might prove points wrong that were presented in the video. If no points are proven then I feel extremely threatened by our govt etc. And even though I think the religion thing at the beginning was kind of boring, it explained so much and I loved it. Basically, I'm trying to find out true facts and then making up my own mind based on facts and the beliefs that I have. As of know, I believe totally in what the movie has said.

iwishiwascool Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 I saw it a while back. It is like any other polemic in the fact that it strongly emphasizes points that support the argument and ignores disputing points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 The first part was interesting. the second part was basicly a revised version of Loose change. wasn't able to watch the last half hour of it but what I did see was good and makes you think but as mentioned its only one side of the story.

Chad is Dead Posted November 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 come on people....i really would like to have the other sides of the story and so far no one has provided them. I want to know the story of both sides before making an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwishiwascool Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 If all it takes is one internet video to shape your opinion on all things spiritual, governmental, and economic, than you will be at the mercy of the winds of influence anytime someone comes up with a conclusive argument. Know that those who know will manipulate the raw information to suit the point being sold and mitigate or omit the info that contradicts it. Only if it were truly a non-biased documentary could you use this and only this as a source to formulate a belief structure. That being said, I memorized the info in the first part and imploded the mind of a hoochie who considered herself most intelligent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hot_wire Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 The movie's pretty wild. I couldn't make it all the way through. Call me overly skeptical or possibly unwilling to accept the truth. I feel like the ideas are well presented and backed up, if a little nutty.

TimTaylor751647545500 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 After watching, I felt like I should get rid of my tv & home computer and go live on the beach or in the woods somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad is Dead Posted August 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Wow I can't believe this thread got pulled back up. I'm somewhat drunk so triplegmax posted is not really hitting the questions I have to make me feel satisfied. It actually took my dad who watched the movie to actually do research on the facts. At the end of the video it actually admits to using quotes and what not out of context and so on and so forth. So right now I've basically pulled myself away from all govts and any texts'. Right now I'm just going to live as happy as I can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
