Christmas future..

Since the Christmas Approaches thread is pretty much historical now, lets get back up to speed...


Egypt bans the latest Hollywood blockbuster citing 'historical inaccuracies'...

Report: 'Exodus' banned in Egypt due to 'historical mistakes' | Inside Movies | EW.com

Because....'they portrayed Moses as a General and not as a prophet'.....but hey..at least they don't dispute the locusts, the local river turning the colour of a rich Merlot, a benevolent deity sending his white winged soldiers (portrayed so benignly with golden glittering halo on the xmas cards on your walls) to MURDER the first born innocents of a whole NATION to prove the Dark Knights point, or someone with a grey beard parting the Red Sea with a stick..so I guess according to Egypt Hollywood gets some of it's facts right...(Game of Thrones eat your heart out on the complexities of Exodus.)

Then again Churchill disputed the well known fact that Errol Flynn single handedly recaptured Burma...so Brits have no right to criticise..

Objective, Burma! ? liberating cinema from the truth | Film | The Guardian

We have North Korean cybertechs allegedly sabotaging films lampooning their leader, muppets from Russia screwing with online connections for kids with their first playstations and x-boxes on Xmas day, whilst claiming a moral high ground as they leave children in tears on what is supposed to be their day!

Thousands of PlayStation gamers STILL locked out of network plead with hackers | Daily Mail Online


I'm just so glad that I grew up in a time when belief was suspended, when all that I worried about on Christmas (NOT XMAS) day was if my U2 batteries would last until the shops opened and that there was an Errol Flynn/John Wayne film after the Queens speech that made me SUSPEND belief and enjoy it for the pure hokum that it was....

The world today...cyberwarriors destroying a childs christmas day, university created politicians who do not understand that we KNOW how to SUSPEND belief....

Just what have we left for the next generations Christmas Day?

Re: Christmas future..

'History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon' Napoleon Bonaparte

Archeology has revealed many ancient historical artifacts which conflict with what is 'agreed upon'- they are destroyed or hidden in the vaults of the Smithsonian.

If you want to know more there is plenty of info on the web. Just google 'hidden history' or 'forbidden archeology'

Just find a version of history which you feel comfortable with. Whether it is right or wrong doesn't matter, but don't insist your version is correct - because - you weren't there were you
