Hm-m-m... and then when they meet up again in the great beyond, how does he fare?? Livin' large or livin' with demons in his face, forever and ever and ever ??
Ever see the movie, "Constantine"?? How about "Flatliners", "What Dreams may Come", or "Ghost"??

Laugh all you want. But it's a phony laugh, at best. Go rent "Ghost" one time. Or, you can read Emmanual Swedenbourg, Anthony Borgia, or Carl A. Wickland, M.D.
The guy, Prothero, will get his "reward", for better or worse, as we all do, but anybody who kills another is in for pretty harsh treatment.
lol... what a transparent effort to bait following your displeasure with an anti-establishment film ... very well, i'll play along...
apparently $118 million in ticket/rental sales and 72% positive ratings from all critics tends to paint a different picture than your pretentious diatribe... we can suppose you didn't enjoy 1984 nor Brazil either, for that matter... if you ever bothered to see such important pieces of cinema...
the film was fashioned after Alan Moore's graphic novel about BRITAIN from the early 80s... it's interesting that most critics, right AND left, panned the film for it being entirely british, with no real references to the police state that American is slowly becoming ... but, don't let that get in the way of your stretch... while not a perfect film, especially the end, it was utterly satisfying on a number of levels... the most pleasing being the depiction of Lewis Prothero, venomous yet cowardly propaganda minister for the government... we have a number of Prothero's right here in our little forum...
but the best part of the film was John Hurt's role as General Sutler... "Strength Through Unity! Unity Through Faith!"...
Um, wow it made $118 million, what movies don't these days? That sure means it was good, and that I'm putting forth some game. BTW, isn't the movie PG-13? You shouldn't be commenting till next year when you are old enough to actually see it.
Anyhow, I guess their citing America's civil war, and it's war on islam wasn't really referencing America. Basically, the story went something like "we're in this ******* mess because those crazy Americans destroyed the world, and forced us to be this way." Am I wrong here?

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him." Leo Tolstoy, 1897
Did you see the movie or just compelled to comment cause you are supposed to?? I thought it was pretty good, it could be anti american on one level or just entertainment on another.
Who is this? Portman, or Cytherea?

Eye for an eye right? Didn't you find that contradictory to his purpose?

so the character should turn the other cheek like a good little liberal? lol... you guys don't know what your position is... never do... no character in the film deserved accountability like Lewis Prothero... here's his best line of the film, and why he reminds me so much of Fogbuster:
Did you like that? USA... Ulcered Sphincter of Ass-erica, I mean what else can you say? Here was a country that had everything, absolutely everything. And now, 20 years later, is what? The world's biggest leper colony. Why? Godlessness. Let me say that again... Godlessness. It wasn't the war they started. It wasn't the plague they created. It was Judgement. No one escapes their past. No one escapes Judgement. You think he's not up there? You think he's not watching over this country? How else can you explain it? He tested us, but we came through. We did what we had to do. Islington. Enfield. I was there, I saw it all. Immigrants, Muslims, homosexuals, terrorists. Disease-ridden degenerates. They had to go. Strength through unity. Unity through faith. I'm a God-fearing Englishman and I'm goddamn proud of it!
as for you, Fog, ...your reference to the film's afterlife scene never made it off the cutting room floor... come to think of it, what are you even talking about?

OK, Press, just 'cause I love you so much, read and listen carefully: When our physical bodies die, our spirits live on. We continue to exist, forever. You know that feeling inside that says, "I want to live forever"? Well, that's your spirit telling you that you *are* going to live forever.
The question then becomes: HOW are you going to live? Are you going to be happy and free to go where you please and enjoy your ever after, with your eternal spouse, even? Or, are you going to be filled with regret, living like a ghost, not only dodging angry resentful spirits you have wronged in your earthly life, but not even having your eternal other half? Trumps partisan politics, don't you think?

The movie was the stupidest, most ridiculous, politically motivated drivel I've seen in film since Babel. This movie was retarded. It was Blame America at its best. Of course, the makers, in all their righteousness, didn't even care to realize that they were being complete hypocrites. That clown was using terrorism as a tool to promote his cause. Not only that, but he was judge and jury for all things he deemed righteous. I'm so glad i didn't waste $3.99 on that POC movie. Portman's nipples were nice though.

perfect... i admire the film even more now... 72% of all film critics loved it...
too bad your rigid police-state opinion of the world counts for little...
further, you're referenced the $3.99 figure twice now, portraying just how cheap you are...
