I dont know aboutan attack but something weird is going on with the internet but then again when has the internet worked 100% all the time??

no, but there is an undeniable desensitization to those films. film covers many a topic, but favorites include death, destruction, tyrany, and war with some sex strewn about. the atrocities that we've all seen on the tube are rationalized as 'ok' on some subconsious level.

Alright..you'll have to take me through your theory bit by bit.
Because so far, I can't make any sense of what you're saying
I don't think anyone is disputing that death and sex are "hot sellers" when it comes to the media...I'm just not seeing the link to "the next attack".
Help me out here.
in relation to the 'next attack' as it is outlined on this thread, well there is no direct connection - i was typing generally; by putting the most despicable things on the screen, big brother knows what we allow into our minds. decades later, we're comfortable enough that maybe we will allow it in our lives too?

I too, have the feeling that something is approaching, just not sure what. I have said that i feel something may go down at the G8 and/or Live8 events.
I hope i am wrong about that, and about an attack in general, but i feel it is almost inevitable.
regardless, it is a side effect. like it or not, if one chooses to fill their mind with the inner thoughts of serial killers - one will inevitably be one step closer to thinking like a killer. baby steps.
as for big brother, why should film, or TV in general be the taboo subject for studying society? your complete attention is a rare thing - but for 2 hours at a time you can be bombarded with impressions, some direct and some more subtle.
We're bombarded with many things....but it eventually falls upon us, the viewers, to discern fact from fiction, myth from reality, propaganda from truth.
