My cousin was in Matrix 2 & 3. He is the agent that kills trinity as they are falling from the tower (pretty full on symbolism).. And has lots of other parts, he is primarily a stunt man.

The shell represents the crown chakra, and the 9th gate, or water gate of the Gods, is Sagittarius.

It makes sense, being the last gate the main character in the movie had to walk through.
But why is it related to Sagittarius?
Is it because Sagittarius falls on December and it's the last phase of the Zodiac?

Sagittarius is falls on November 22.From Virgo to that point we are considered to be in-cub ation.This is why the Box movie and Xbox, and the cube cars are in the public eye.There are 8 corners on the cube,and we find the 9th Gate emergence of the soul, to be the center of the Cube.

Scorpio gives the soul its death sting.mars and Saturn cuts the silver cord,and the free soul soars as an eagle seeking the celestial spheres, its true home.During our gestation period Mars gives the Body iron, to ignite this fire.

Jak the master number 22 is in the Box, and pops his head from the center. Right now Sesame street is celebrating 40 years which breaks down to 22.

The Sesame seed makes a sudden popping sound, once it reaches maturity .The seed pods split open, is where we get the saying "Open sesame!" This is the Philosophy of the BIG MAC.

That's funny...I was going to ask 777 if he watched 9....I was going to get his take on it....

9 is full of symbology and most of it blatant...

'Clash of the Titans': Ancient Myth, New Look

by Matt McDaniel · November 10, 2009

The ancient Greek myth of Perseus, the son of Zeus who defeated Medusa, has been passed down for over two thousand years. But for movie fans, the tale was most memorably retold in the 1981 feature, "Clash of the Titans."
Now, after the success of sword-and-sandal epics like "Gladiator" and "300," the legend of Perseus is getting another big-screen adaptation. And this new "Clash of the Titans" looks like it will keep some of the qualities that made the original fun, but with an entirely updated look. Watch the brand-new teaser trailer to get a preview of the action, and keep reading to find out how this new version compares to the first movie.

THE MYTHOLOGY:
While some recent movies based on ancient Greek myths have toned down or even eliminated the characters of the gods -- 2004's "Troy" being the prime example -- this "Clash of the Titans" puts them front and center again.
The original movie took many liberties with the ancient myths, of course. In the story, the hero Perseus saves the maiden Andromeda from a sea creature called the "Cetus." For the film, the monster is called the "Kraken," which is actually a term from Scandinavian mythology. Also, the mythological Perseus gets around via flying sandals, and not by riding the winged horse Pegasus.
The new movie reportedly departs some from the story of the first film. It puts Perseus in the middle of a war between Zeus and Hades, the god of the underworld. Rather than only trying to save Andromeda, Perseus is tasked with preventing Hades from overrunning the Earth. One thing the new "Clash of the Titans" does share with the old one: it doesn't look like there are any of the mythological Titans -- the elder deities that were overthrown by Zeus -- actually in the movie.

The Disappearance Of Flight 412 (1974)

I watched this film yesterday and was surprised by its insights regarding the military coverups of UFOs. It is in the public domain and can be found on many sites.

Stanley Kubrick's 'A Clockwork Orange', '2001, A Space Odyssee' & 'Eyes Wide Shut' are among my all time favourites.

New movie I just heard about called

"Men Who Stare at Goats"

Funny thing is it is based on a book of the same name by Jon Ronson and it was made into a comedy starring George Clooney, Jeff Bridges, Ewan McGregor & Kevin Spacey.

I am perplexed that they made it into a comedy movie even though the book was supposedly written in a Jon Stewart/Daily Show style, to me this takes away from the seriousness of the issue and makes it look make believe, oh well at least it is out there for people to see, and on second thought why not laugh at the craziness of it all!!!

Here is a trailer

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVKi3z1NXF8"]YouTube- The Men Who Stare At Goats - Trailer 1 [H
Amazon.com review on the book

Just when you thought every possible conspiracy theory had been exhausted by The X-Files or The Da Vinci Code, along comes The Men Who Stare at Goats. The first line of the book is, "This is a true story." True or not, it is quite astonishing. Author Jon Ronson writes a column about family life for London's Guardian newspaper and has made several acclaimed documentaries. The Men Who Stare at Goats is his bizarre quest into "the most whacked-out corners of George W. Bush's War on Terror," as he puts it. Ronson is inspired when a man who claims to be a former U.S. military psychic spy tells the journalist he has been reactivated following the 9-11 attack. Ronson decides to investigate. His research leads him to the U.S. Army's strange forays into extra-sensory perception and telepathy, which apparently included efforts to kill barnyard animals with nothing more than thought. Ronson meets one ex-Army employee who claims to have killed a goat and his pet hamster by staring at them for prolonged periods of time. Like Ronson's original source, this man also says he has been reactivated for deployment to the Middle East.

Ronson's finely written book strikes a perfect balance between curiosity, incredulity, and humor. His characters are each more bizarre than the last, and Ronson does a wonderful job of depicting the colorful quirks they reveal in their often-comical meetings. Through a charming guile, he manages to elicit many strange and amazing revelations. Ronson meets a general who is frustrated in his frequent attempts to walk through walls. One source says the U.S. military has deployed psychic assassins to the Middle East to hunt down Al Qaeda suspects. Entertaining and disturbing. --Alex Roslin --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
