So what's the movie about, Kain? I read the synopsis and it was pretty vague.

Is this out on DVD yet or did you have to go to the theatres in Shirlington? I liked what I read in the synopsis, sounds really interesting as a premise for a movie. Thanks for the heads up.

There was an interesting article about it in the Sunday Washington Post:

When the DVD of "What the Bleep Do We Know!?" hit the market last week, it did so after earning more than $10 million in theaters over the past year and a half and trailing only "The Incredibles" among preorders on Amazon.com.
Not bad for a movie you've probably never heard of. Or maybe you have: "The Bleep," as it's affectionately called among partisans, used the same kind of viral, grass-roots marketing that made such unlikely hits of "The Blair Witch Project," "Fahrenheit 9/11" and "The Passion of the Christ." Indeed, "The Bleep" may fairly be described as sort of a secular-humanist version of "The Passion," making the case as it does for a science-based, nonsectarian understanding of spirituality.

'What The Bleep,' Channeling A Profit

Not everyone finds this amusing. One of the few legitimate academics in the film, David Albert, a philosopher of physics at Columbia University, is outraged at the final product. He says that he spent four hours patiently explaining to the filmmakers why quantum mechanics has nothing to do with consciousness or spirituality, only to see his statements edited and cut to the point where it appears as though he and the spirit warrior are speaking with one voice. “I was taken,” Albert admits. “I was really gullible, but I learned my lesson.” Yet the real shame with this film is that it plays on people’s fascination with science while distorting and misrepresenting that science. Before its national release, the film packed theaters up and down the West Coast. Instead of stoking the curiosity of those moviegoers, What the #$*! numbed them with mindless quantum drivel.

It's out on video and the basic quantam premise is that we create our own reality. Life doesn't bite beyond our control...we make it that way! Loved this movie and recommend it to everyone!

You'll be suprised the things this movie will open up. The movie is a life changer....I love stuff like this!

The beginning started out like a bunch of people jabbering on crack, but the second 1/2 of the movie was very thought provoking.

"I will do what every I damn well please, I'll stick my azz in the coctail sauce if I want too."

Oh Yes!!! Excellent Movie! I have a bootleg (shhhhhhhh) copy from the internet. Not great quality but good enough. This movie makes you see things sooooo differently. It will MEAN something to ya! See it!

If you like stuff like this and are into Quantum Physics Theories,( or even if you're not) you MUST read Lynn McTaggart's The Field, The Quest For The Secret Force Of The Universe.

You said that same thing about the porn movie you watched.

I'm having a difficult time writing my opinion of this movie, given that I don't want to use words that will get filtered, result in getting me banned, or offend anyone. In simple terms the ongoing story about some lady photographer is intercut with people discussing philosophical concepts that go from odd to wierd to nonsense fairly quickly. It starts with some interesting ideas on how conciousness works, and after failing to support these claims in any way attempts to adopt quantum physics as a support pillar for an ever increasingly bizzare list of new age claims.

The movie comes out of the "Ramtha School of Enlightenment". If you're not an alumni or didn't see them play Notre Dame in the Taco Bell Bowl, the Ramtha in question is a former citizen of Lemuria (essentially the same thing as Atlantis. note Atlantis, not Atlanta) who lived some 35000 years ago. His current incarnation/channeler is a lady named JZ Knight, who appears later in the movie. The school seems to hhave adopted quite the range of new-age ideas, as seen on their website: Here. From that site, here's a quote "Thus he [Ramtha] says that he is an immortal God, conciousness and energy, and that he lived once as a human being 35,000 years ago in the long-gone continent of Lemuria."

As much as wikipedia is panned as a source, they do a credible job presenting the issues Here

I'm not trying to crack wise on anyone's plans on getting happy, healthy or wise here. I'd just suggest that you might do better than getting philosophy advice from a dead guy from a lost continent that was invented by a fantasy writer in the 30's (Robert Howard).
