We are joined by both William Ramsey and Sean McCann for a discussion that follows up on the analysis we did with them earlier this year of Leave the World Behind. Unpacking the surprisingly dull recent Alex Garland film Civil War, we also spend time talking about the much more lively film The Second Civil War, a 1997 made for TV movie directed by Joe Dante. The Second Civil War offers a satirical depiction of a heavily diversified America that is unable to cope with the complexities of globalization and is on the brink of violent conflict. We analyze the political ethos driving each film, considering their approaches to the ideal of journalistic neutrality, and discussing the extent to which Garland's film offers a pretense of being non-ideological. These films also give us the chance to offer our interpretations of recent American political developments and our thoughts about whether the events of such movies may represent our genuine future. https://www.williamramseyinvestigates.com/https://onegreatworknetwork.com/sean-mccannhttps://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinema thomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

Thomas and Steven discuss the first season of True Detective, analyzing its iconic depiction of occult conspiracy. They talk about the series' treatment of religion and philosophical pessimism, its approach to masculinity, and the thematic ambiguities of the show's conclusion. While expressing appreciation that this masterpiece of television includes so many positive notes, they also discuss the limitations of even well intentioned media depictions of organized ritual abuse. https://twitter.com/StevenDeLay4https://stevendelay.com/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinema thomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com 

Steven DeLay, film analysis expert, explores 'Knight of Cups' with Thomas, analyzing the film's gnostic and tarot references. They discuss Malick's Christian vision, Hollywood hedonism critique, and occult worldview subversion. Delve into complex family dynamics, authenticity, symbolism of tarot cards and narrative identity in Hollywood, suffering and salvation themes, Kierkegaard's religious stages, and actress connections in the film.

We joined our friend Jay Dyer on his show for a discussion about three films that deal with trauma-based mind control designed to cultivate psychical powers, particularly in children. Breaking down De Palma's The Fury, Cronenberg's Scanners, and Mark L. Lester's Firestarter, we talk about theta programming, the real history of government-sponsored psychical research, and the occult ideology that drives such experimentation. Films such as these program their audiences to venerate mutants and crave the catharsis of seeing their powers unleashed. https://jaysanalysis.com/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com  

Author Jasun Horsley discusses the technological body of evil, COVID-19 significance, occult divine child, Satan disagreements, and conspiracy theories involving Sam Harris and Ted Bundy.

Thomas and Steven continue the Terrence Malick series, introducing a discussion of the Weightless Trilogy, which begins with To the Wonder (2012) and constitutes some of the most fully realized Christian cinema ever produced. We talk about Malick's Kierkegaardian inspiration and analyze the film's depiction of romance, family, and the search for God.https://twitter.com/StevenDeLay4https://stevendelay.com/https://sunypress.edu/Books/L/Life-Above-the-Cloudshttps://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

As a sequel to our Taxi Driver episode, we analyze Paul Schrader's 2017 film First Reformed, an explicit work of religious engineering. We examine how the movie's sophisticated propaganda depicts the dying remnants of American Protestantism being absorbed into the globalist religion of the future, complete with worship of the earth mother goddess. We also talk about apocalypse programming, provide further background on Schrader, and discuss some recent disturbing comments that he's made.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

Delving into Christopher Nolan's film Oppenheimer, the podcast explores globalist politics, the Promethean salesman of science, and the death of the soul symbolized by women. Themes like manipulation, psychological aspects, and occult references in the movie are analyzed, along with the historical narratives and globalist agendas intertwined in the narrative.

In a discussion that much of our longrunning Joker analysis has built to, we do a deep dive into Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver (1976). We explain the foundational place of Scorsese's film in the feedback loop between media and spectacular crime that we call the Joker Cycle. Looking at other relevant films and filmmakers, we speculate on the possible role of Brian de Palma in the Taxi Driver psy-op, discuss Peter Bogdanovich's Targets (1968) as an early entry into the feedback loop, and explain the over-the-top revelation of the method in The Last Horror Film (1982). Breaking down Taxi Driver, we talk about the manufactured profile of the lone wolf spectacular criminal, Travis Bickle as proto-incel, and how the movie is a paradigmatic example of MK-culture reality/fiction breakdown.CORRECTION: The Terror was released in 1963 rather than 1968.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

Thomas joins Luemas on Chant It Down Radio, discussing the first three films in the Jason Bourne franchise. Starring the deeply sus Matt Damon, limited hangouts and revelation of the method abound in these movies. Discussing how Hollywood's political messaging has shifted over the last couple decades, Thomas and Luemas explain how the exceptionally spooked-up filmmakers behind this franchise blend sincere critique of CIA wrongdoing with disturbing fetishization of mind control.https://www.chantitdownradio.com/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com
