Both. I thought it was a very good movie, obviously not for everyone but it's such an interesting concept. It was alot to take in the first time I saw it not having any awareness of what its actually about so I'd like to see it again to see if its clearer and if I find it as good overall.

What was link between the 1970s nuclear plant story and the 2012 book publisher's story?

I thought he was related to the power plant owner, but he wasnt.

I think his link is more with the future.

[Da Jungles]

a movie like this makin only 10mil


well its to be expected... this country just isnt intrigued by topics like this..








This film is about who we are as the human race, and that is a singular consciousness that has tricked itself (for the purpose of the story) into thinking that there are others. This is done with props such as human bodies that are inhabited by individuated facets of consciousness and experience-gathering. These multitudes then tell the story of the eventual triumph of love over all obstacles. Not love of an "other", but love of the One that we are.

This film reaches BEHIND the archetypes into what we really are.




but avengers makes 1billion

How can you be intrigued by a topic when you don't even know the topic?

Folks don't have time to expand their minds

Just saw the movie and it will be Cult Classic Status. 1st it's based on the book "Cloud Atlas" and the reason it flopped is sadly American Audiences just don't want to think. "The Matrix" would of flopped if it didn't have the action to mix with the deep themes. The movie is basically 6 stories that span 500 Years from the 1800's to 2400's. The stories are told out of order and jump back and forth for 3 hours. The 1st 45 minutes you are like "WTF is going on" then all the sudden you find yourself sucked into each story and invested in each one. As the movie goes on you start to notice the connections of each story.

The cast did an amazing job playing all the characters from each story. The movie deals with many themes including Love, Spirituality, Religion, Atheism, Homosexuality, Transgender, Good, Evil, Coincidence, Fate, Density, Control, Oppression, Slavery, Crime, Future, Consciousness, revolution. It's one of the most complex and ambitious films i've ever seen. It's easily the best sci-fi movie of the year over "Prometheus and Looper". It comes on DVD in February and a screener is flouting online. I suggest people spark one up and just go for a ride. Now out of the 6 stories, I would say 2 of them were kinda boring and 4 were really good but the 2 boring ones don't bring the movie down. I'm not shocked it flopped, it really is a complex movie and a hard sell. But I came out it wishing more filmmakers took risk like they did. I'm telling people, 20 years from now people are going to be wondering why this flopped. It truly is ahead of it's time:
