Cameron's Titanic & Avatar

11th September 2017 30 mins Season 1 Episode 4

Jay Dyer and Jay Weidner draw a connection between The Titanic and Avatar movies by James Cameron, as an unfolding cautionary tale of rampant industrialism. Their examination of the Titanic sets up the establishment of the Federal Reserve and the corporate takeover of the world’s monetary system. Thus, humanity is plunged into the depths of the Kali Yuga and it must reach out, to the stars, to continue fueling its greed induced self-collapse. Which brings us to the lush world of Avatar as the Na’vi live idyllic lives within their own golden age. As the clash of world’s and ages ensues, we learn of the dangers of technology and we are shown the way out of the collapse of our own civilization. This presentation was originally webcast September 11, 2017.

Nolan's Batman Begins

In 2005, Christopher Nolan rebooted the Batman movies, full of occult imagery depicting the interplay of secret societies and billionaire capitalists as played out against the gothic noir landscape of Gotham City. It is also the tale of our protagonist learning to use fear as a means of changing the world around him. In many ways, Bruce Wayne’s rise as the dark knight is like the ascendance of Gautama Siddhartha as Buddha. As the archetype of Buddha brought peace through enlightenment, the archetype of the bat brought peace through fear; something which would bring about the end of corruption in Gotham, but would eventually cause the fall of our hero.
