- cosworth99, on 11/07/2009, -0/+16My mom is a bright, smart, articulate woman. She thought Blair Witch was real when it came out. I'm sure she thinks this is all marketing hype.
Yes it's a new low for marketing, some dumb ass will think it's a true story. But the masses are getting wise to "viral" and associated marketing tripe. - numberneal, on 11/06/2009, -0/+13i see them all the time.
- shenerd, on 11/06/2009, -0/+12The movie itself appears to suck outside of its mechanical shortcomings: http://www.reelzchannel.com/movie-news/4977/the-fo ...
- rocknog, on 11/07/2009, -0/+5*****! They pretended to take this seriously and showed no aliens!? What the ***** is that about? I'd rather they openly acknowledge this as a work of fiction and ***** show the goddamn aliens. A while back, I watched a made-for-TV movie about alien abductions from years ago that was clearly a work of fiction though partially based on actual abduction accounts, and that ***** literally kept me up all night because every time I fell asleep, I'd have nightmares about being abducted by aliens. Naturally I had assumed the Fourth Kind would continue in that tradition, simply updating the cheesy acting and the lame special effects, and if they had, at least in my opinion, it'd make for a pretty ***** terrifying movie. But apparently they took the Blair Witch route. Why the ***** is everyone so ***** obsessed with Blair Witch? Granted, it was cheap as hell to make and it got big ***** profits, but that wasn't a success that can be ***** replicated.
Goddamn, I am seriously pissed here - there was a clear opportunity to make a genuinely terrifying movie, and they ***** blew it by trying to make it a Blair Witch ripoff. - Frisbinator, on 11/07/2009, -1/+5That is terrible that they won't let you see the aliens. I want to see the aliens, like in that movie Fire in the Sky:

You had better not click that link if you get scared easily, and keep in mind: this is a TRUE story. - Dagreenman, on 11/07/2009, -0/+4has a 16% on Rotten Tomatoes
- TheInformer, on 11/07/2009, -0/+3The scariest part of the movie to me was how fast I fell asleep in the movie theater.
- gordonp, on 11/07/2009, -0/+3Chariots of The Gods gave me nightmares when I was a little kid.
- anonymousmedic, on 11/07/2009, -1/+4This movie looks like it would be great to take a few friends and MST3Kerize.
- Corona85, on 11/07/2009, -2/+5This is so retarded i can't even think of an appropriate response. Its a movie. Why the hell do people need an article to explain to them that a movie, IS A MOVIE?
- WRXFiles, on 11/07/2009, -1/+4And this is the kind of crap we have foisted on us in the new word of Digg's 'integrated' ads disguised as stories.
It would be nice if we could post these comments directly with the ads pushing the content. - rocknog, on 11/07/2009, -0/+3I thought the same thing at first, until I realized that the promotions about how it was based on real events were actually meant to be taken seriously. I thought it was just some cheap marketing gimmick at first - and, well, obviously it still is, but I didn't realize the studio was actually seriously attempting to convince people this was real. I figured everyone would understand that it's a marketing gimmick, that this was a whole tongue-in-cheek thing, but not, they actually attempted to pawn this off as real in a serious manner.
- kenedamick, on 11/07/2009, -0/+2I think it looks horrible and the corporate "guerilla" marketing was dumb. Won't see it.
- inactive, on 11/07/2009, -3/+5ufology IS a big steaming dump, just like cryptozoology and paranormal research of any sort.
- yacks, on 11/07/2009, -1/+3I see aliens all the time standing on the curb of Home Depot.
- daeyeth, on 11/07/2009, -0/+2it's obvious ze aliens are smart enough to cover their tracks
- BetaUser, on 11/07/2009, -0/+2What's strange about the whole Alien thing is that they have the ability to travel between stars within a lifetime (unless their lifespans are MUCH longer than ours), or at least between planets; they've been here since ancient Egyptian times, and yet they still have to snatch humans up to do experiments on us.
I mean scientists are only a few years away from totally mapping the human genome and we only started about 30 years ago with the fruitfly. You mean to tell me that aliens capable of interstellar travel with tens of thousands of years can't figure out humans by now.
Then there's the whole home base thing. I mean, where do they go when they aren't abducting people and flying over the united states. Unless they are using wormholes or interdimensional portals or something to go back home instantly, where is home base. I would think satellites would pick them up if it was in space. If on earth, i'm sure somebody, google maps even, would have spotted them. If they are using invisibility cloaks, then why would they allow themselves to show up on a coppers dash cam.
It's like you have a race of beings that have gotten intelligent enough to have all this awesome technology, yet the have evolved into petty, mean, and gloating individuals that can't even stop and say "Hi world, you guys suck. Let us show you a better way". No instead they keep their technology to themselves while doing mean things to us and then getting the ***** out of dodge.
If that's what human evolution has to look forward to then i'm glad i'll be dead for that next step. I mean, if all they are going to do is come to our house and hide in the closet, ***** EM i say! - xixphz, on 11/08/2009, -0/+1tl dr
- AgeofMastery, on 11/07/2009, -1/+2It has Milla Jovovich and opens in my birthday.Damn right I saw it
- DaviDTC, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1Can't wait to go see it and laugh when everyone else is screaming.
- Junkyarddawg, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1A new low maybe, but I can't believe it's worse/dumber than the x-files movie.
- crashingechelon, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1A true story as in Fargo and Blair Witch were true or true as in it actually happened? A lot of times saying the movie is a true story is a marketing ploy to boost peoples interest in the movie.
- rocknog, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1Actually in this case, it is actually based on a true story. The "inside the ship" aspect of the movie was absolutely nothing like what was actually reported, but the Travis Walton case did actually occur, at least in that a dude went missing for like a week and when he came back, he claimed he had been abducted by aliens.
So no, the story behind "Fire in the Sky" wasn't created as a marketing ploy, but it was greatly embellished to make it more entertaining (if they had used the actual account of what he claims took place while he was on the ship, it would've been very dull indeed). - emjaymj, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1why...
- Kyderdog, on 11/08/2009, -0/+1When ever I hear fire in the sky I think of this:
http://www.amazon.com/Fire-Sky-Half-Japanese/dp/B0 ... - EvilDeadAsh, on 11/07/2009, -0/+1Who thought "anal probe" when they saw the picture of Milla? I can't be the only one.
- lolgasmic, on 11/07/2009, -1/+1"Spectrologists" (it's cool how they have fancy names to sound intelligent and serious.)
- LucifersDad, on 11/07/2009, -2/+2In order for aliens to be here, out of all the sightings by civilians and the sightings by the military only one has to be true.
The thing is the only group who have the technology to tell if it is a UFO are the military. But these are are the same ones who block any information coming out. I am not talking about a streak of light in the sky, I am talking about objects that come from space fly around and fly back out, sometimes spotted and tracked by military aircraft. - yourmomsnutz, on 11/08/2009, -0/+0Tired of hearing the same old song? Over and Over? Read ON!

Mystery Of America.Time Travellers From Our Past.Tedd St. Rain.2006.2h*******
info:
To download the free ebook visit www.MysteryOfAmerica.com --- Mysterious and often inexplicable remnants of civilization's history fascinate scientists and archaeologists. People travel worldwide to visit such sites, yet some of the most enigmatic artifacts and structures have been found right here in North America. Unfortunately, because these records do not fit within accepted academic models of human history, they remain unexplained mysteries, and most people never hear of them. Long before any humans were supposed to be on this continent, unknown hands removed millions of pounds of copper from mines near Lake Superior. Or a three-foot-high adult mummy was discovered in Wyoming. Sandaled feet made footprints in rock at least 300 million years old. A human-like tooth,three times normal size, was found in coal from a Montana mine. According to modern wisdom, humans evolved on Earth no earlier than two million years ago. Yet many of these artifacts were made long before then. How can this be? Could these anomalies have been the result of an advanced civilization once present on our planet? This video-taped lecture presents evidence that there have been intelligent beings on earth long before humans are thought to have evolved here. About 1/2 way through, St. Rain shifts gears and describes the basics of his THEORY OF ALMOST EVERYTHING, fondly referred to as the GRAND UNIFIED CONSPIRACY THEORY, where he reveals the nature of the human soul, soul catchers, the interdimensional nature of reality, the reason for the arrival of extraterrestrials, intergalactic vending routes, the prime directive, extinction level events, cosmic dump trucks, Corso's time travelling aliens at roswell, time travel, time dilation, quanta, string theories; and so much more. --- Tedd St. Rain, author, lecturer, and videographer, he has traveled the world extensively investigating the world’s ancient mysteries and enigmas, actively researching the mysterious, the metaphysical and the mythical!!

2012.Jay Weidner on Coast to Coast Jan 2009.4h
info:
Filmmaker and scholar Jay Weidner spoke about 2012 and prophecy, as well as mysteries surrounding the Georgia Guidestones and the Denver Airport. A series of interrelated prophecies are all pointing toward one time period, around 2012, as being a time of crucial change, possibly connected with our sun, he said. The decreasing heliosphere of the sun leaves Earth with less of a buffer from potentially dangerous elements from outer space such as cosmic rays, he noted.
Weidner perceives 2012 as an alchemical moment for humanity to decide who or what it wants to be. On a positive note, he foresees a possibility for the populace to live in semi-rural conditions in a more slowed down fashion, yet still connected via the Internet. A more negative outcome would see society turned into a "techno-fascist nightmare" with robocops and cameras on every corner, he warned. People need to figure out how to manage in a world of increasing scarcity, he commented.
In discussing the Georgia Guidestones (see below), he doesn't interpret the commandment about maintaining the Earth's population as a call to exterminate people. Rather, he suggested the monument could be part of an alchemical mythos, helping to bring about a new consciousness. The Denver Airport appears to be connected to COG (continuity of government) with underground facilities that could withstand a nuclear war, Weidner reported. He suspects there's a gigantic tunnel system under the airport, with trains possibly running to different parts of America. Denver, he added, could be slated to become the capitol of an eventual North American Union.

Earths Magnetic field can not be more than 10,000 years old.Nuclear physicist, Dr Russell Humphreys.2003.1h4m********
info:
Nuclear physicist, Dr Russell Humphreys describes how paleomagnetic research indicates our field can not be more than 10,000 years old. Problems with the dynamo model of the earth's Magnetic Field are presented, as is the accuracy with which his model predicted magnetic strengths of other planets. You may listen online or download the file.
Dr Humphreys was awarded his Ph.D. in physics from Louisiana State University in 1972. For the next 6 years he worked in the High Voltage Laboratory of General Electric Company, designing and inventing equipment and researching high-voltage phenomena. While there, he received a U.S. patent and one of Industrial Research Magazine's IR-100 awards.
Beginning in 1979 he worked for Sandia National Laboratories (New Mexico) in nuclear physics, geophysics, pulsed-power research, and theoretical atomic and nuclear physics. In 1985, he began working with Sandia's 'Particle Beam Fusion Project', and was co-inventor of special laser-triggered 'Rimfire' high-voltage switches, now coming into wider use. The last few years at Sandia had seen greater emphasis on theoretical nuclear physics and radiation hydrodynamics in an effort to help produce the world's first lab-scale thermonuclear fusion. Besides gaining another U.S. patent, Dr Humphreys has been given two awards from Sandia, including an Award for Excellence for contributions to light ion-fusion target theory.

Dinosaur Figurines, Fact or Fraud.Dr. Patton.Ac?mbaro, Guanajuato Mexico.2008.51m*******
info:
In 1945 German archeologist, Waldemar Julsrud discovered clay figurines buried at the foot of El toro Mountain on the outskirts of Ac?mbaro, Guanajuato Mexico. Eventually over 37,000 figurines and artifacts were found. They were similar to artifacts identified with the Pre-classical Chupicuaro Culture (800BC - 200AD) found in this area. Radiocarbon and thermoluminescent testing has supported these estimates. The authenticity of the find has been challenged because the collection included dinosaurs. Many archeologists believe dinosaurs have been extinct for the past 65 million years and man's knowledge of them has been limited to the past 200 years. If man saw and modeled them 2500 years ago, this view would be falsified. Dr. Patton, together with Dr. Dennis Swift have made five trips to Ac?mbaro in order to conduct their own personal investigation. The collection had been locked away for years but access was attained. You will hear the intriguing story, evaluate the testimony of many respectable, knowledgeable eye witnesses and you will be able to view the evidence for yourself.
Dr. Patton has a broad educational background; four years at Florida College, Temple Terrace, FL; two years at Austin Peay State University, Clarksville, TN; two years at Indiana Univ.Purdue Univ., Indianapolis, IN; two years, Pacific School of Graduate Studies. He has worked as Geologist in US, Canada, Australia, England, Mexico, Peru, bolvia, Cambodia, Israel, and Jordan. Dr. Patton has participated in dinosaur excavations in Colorado, Texas, Utah, Wyoming and Canada. He is credited with excavating the longest consecutive dinosaur trail in North America, totaling 157 tracks, extending over 500 feet. He is a member of the Geological Society of America and was a speaker at their 1997 annual convention. Dr. Patton lectures at universities accross the United States. He has conducted up to twelve CreationEvolution Seminares a year for twenty five years. He has participated in numerous public debates on creationevolution including radio and TV debates. He has testified three times before Texas State Textbook Committe, Austin, TX. Presently, Dr. Patton is consulting geologist & partner in Mazada Corporation, Dallas, TX. He is a staff geologist of the Creation Evidence Museum, Glen Rose, TX, staff geologist for the Qumran Plateau excavation in Israel, an area supervisor at the City of David excavation in Jerusalem and charman of the Metroplex Institute of Origon Science.

Freedom Road.The Human Journey 7000 BC - 2012 AD.David Icke.4h
info:
David Icke tells the astonishing story of how the world is controlled today by "royal" bloodlines seeded in the ancient world that have passed through history manipulating the human race for thousands of years. The bloodlines that were the kings and queens of the distant past are the same bloodlines that today produce the political leaders and those who control the banks, transnational corporations and our media. Using hundreds of illustrations and a fast paced often ironic narrative, David Icke explains how and why we are now racing towards a global fascist state - unless we wake up fast. He also explores the spiritual (not religious) road to freedom that may await us all and says that we can transform the world and our lives by transforming ourselves and understanding our true power to design our own destiny. What is happening? What can happen? What has happened in the past? All of these questions are explored in this thrilling shocking mind-blowing program.

The Day The Earth Caught Fire.1961.1h31m*******

info:
Journalists of the London Daily Express investigate reports of strange phenomena occurring all over the world, such as flooding in the Sahara, unseasonable blizzards in New York, and violent tornadoes in the Soviet Union. All over England, temperatures are on the rise, girls in bikinis are everywhere, and wonderful special-effects mists are blanketing the Thames River. Top scientists at the Meteorological Center refuse to give any official explanation, which makes the newspaper editor suspicious. He orders science reporter Bill Maguire and alcoholic columnist Peter Stenning to dig for information. When Peter begins a romance with Met Center secretary Jeannie Craig, he learns from her certain clues that there has indeed been a cover-up . . . and he begins to sober up, so that he may win her love. Ten days before the film begins, two nuclear bombs had been exploded, one at the North Pole by the Soviet Union, the other at the South Pole by th - jarrisondiggs, on 11/08/2009, -0/+0I think this film needs to have a disclaimer. While it claims to be based on true events and contain archival footage, many of these are manufactured. This film is preying on the clueless. They even set up fake websites which they link to on their website.
- rjbeckjr, on 11/07/2009, -0/+0You know, Paranormal Activity seems like an actually creepy film if you regard it as BS. I don't know why, but aliens are definitely underused in the horror genre.
- inactive, on 11/07/2009, -2/+1Not to say I believe in UFO's but I find it funny how people call UFOlogists crackpots while the "experts" make up the most bizarre and insane excuses for interesting phenomenon in the sky such as swamp gas, weather balloons, flares or headlights from a car.

iLold. - DiggLord, on 11/07/2009, -4/+3Paranormal research of any sort is a big steaming dump? Really? Just because there are people researching stuff science hasn't verified yet, therefore it must not exist and cannot be real? If everyone had an attitude like you we would still be living in the dark ages.
