Just how many ways do I have to endure 'the virus turned humankind into cannibals' genre! Throw it away like a used-up paper towel, please. It was only good for 'one swipe' anyway. 'I Am Legand', 'Resident Evil X3' '28 Days +' and the other oh, so forgettable ones about this same theme either in a town, house, cabin, forest, world, space or who knows where; let the suffering end! So Bored! Could someone have some imagination and really scare the wits out of me with something new and weird or creepy... I sure miss the X Files.. at least every week I could look forward to some new twist on something sort of new... yeh, at the end the whole alien invasion/virus gig did become tedious... but some of the early stuff; heh, it was novel and imaginative! Bring on a really good new scare; I want to hide behind my eyes again...

Yes, ideas are copyrighted for all media. The people who own these copyrights can keep producing the same plots and music genre for ever and ever. They can afford to stoop new ideas that they do not profit from. Ever wondered why there has been no new music since 1994? They control TV to make sure we pay for new media but mostly, they think that children watch so everything is censored for family viewing. Children are not watching; children have more movies in their DVD collection than TV will ever show. It's easy to find new music on underground music sites but, are there any underground movie sites?
Again, it is the control on education which makes people dumb enough to swallow it, and government lies. We are just here to buy stuff and to have no ideas beyond that. Those who sell and those who buy will never evolve as a race. It all began with 'Edward Bernays' the nephew of Sigmond F. It made Wall Street crash, poverty in Europe, WW2, and it is happening again. The main reason is that children spend the money and have not see the same thing over and over. You know me; it's the voices I miss; nothing else matters for without those individual voices no western nation has an identity. Without those original voices no actor has identity. There is a bigger picture. Still, what's done is done and we grab what craps of originality we can. Some great ideas and suggestions on this site. Atleast the English subtitled movies have diffrent voices; if I hear another mincing N.Y. actor I will turn into one of the monsters in your fav horror movies. The only thing they pay for in England is smack and cocain; everything else is stolen. My most frightening thing is reality.
Hm... I've been wondering about Q that past few days and (for what some might consider) Q's "radical" outlook.
But perhaps, this laser-like focus on America with its impatient, short-term, impulsive, market-oriented society with a comparatively brief and short history, ultimately culminates in something that results in Q's observation that says something that's rather powerful and perceptive. Q's is not a "Slacker" comment.

We are you; you come from here; we share and deny the same past. Together we created the best media because our voices were excellent. Here we have endless New York sit-coms; not the good one's like, 'My Name is Earl' but the one's with clone voices, and they can keep making them forever because they are so so rich. Another suggestion from this site is, 'The Twilight Zone'. Yesterday I watched some of the 1st series. I enjoyed, 'Just Walking Distance' the most. The music was perfect both in score and tone of voice and the story really hit home for me. I almost cried it was so good. It made me love America the way we British used to; our children over seas. It helped me to realise much more what it is I talk about here. It even gave me faith in something; and that feels good. I'm not really much of a movie buff but media is now war and a way to reach us. It's sad when our children die but when we can produce no more children it is the end of our song... Must watch some suggestions now; thankyou

Eerie. Twilight Zone. In 1975, I selected as my one video scene for my college course in Basic Acting as a freshman, "Walking Distance" (Twilight Zone) 1959. With a camera man, I ended up having to go to two park locations, the first location being inundated by children interfering with my monologue and then (the funny) interruption in the middle of my scene of a helicopter starting to take off. My selection of a scene from this espisode of the "Twilight Zone" was based on the realization that there is a season for each life and that it was the boy's time to embrace life not his older self. Life is what we make of it (Existentialism) - either good or bad. Without death there is no life. Without hate there is no love. Without trial and difficulty there is no accomplishment or sense of success.
What an interesting coincidence that after 34 years that two people separate by an ocean would focus on this obscure little black and white 30 minute television piece of history.
