My favorite bit about the "it was Mormons" joke from South Park is that its a joke within a joke, since Mormons don't actually believe in Hell, making the whole situation impossible. It always gives me a nice chuckle.
“as far back as i can remember i always wanted to be a astronaut” Camera tracks Neil’s back as he walks onto moon He gets addicted to drugs and buzz gets killed for being a hothead Robert De Niro plays every character Directed by Martin Scorsese
A Hideo Kojima Lunar Mission Starring Neil "Venom" Armstrong Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin Michael "Kazuhira" Collins Written by Hideo Kojima Produced by Hideo Kojima Directed by Hideo Kojima MOON LANDING
NASA: "Neil, you remember the launch of Sputnik twelve years ago, right?" Neil: "Sputnik?" NASA: "Yes, it was the first successful man-made space satellite. For the duration of its orbit, it maintained a distance of approximately 4.3 thousand miles from the earth on average. Your target, Earth's moon, is roughly 100 times as far away." Neil: "Earth's moon?"
@@rodney2x48 You don't understand, she can only breathe space vacuum through her skin. That's why there's an absolutely mandatory scene of her frolicking in the airlock.
In case you're actually feeling down, its okay! Cuz he mentioned a comic thats completely like, anti chemicals (well I mean, in the sense that emotions are JUST chemical reactions and not a complicated set of feelings and metaphysics stuff). You make your own meaning! No need to live the lie, you can make the best of this beautiful earth.
@@pixelsheep3443 it's called emergence or emergent properties. for example, wetness. no water molecule is wet, wetness only emerges once you have enough water in a space, it's a property none of the component parts of water has that is nonetheless present in water. so yes, your emotions are "just" chemicals, but that doesn't actually mean anything, because a computer is "just" circuits, and emergence tells us that it doesn't matter what you're made of, your properties have very little to do with your component parts. your emotions are chemicals, but those chemicals in that arrangement makes a conscious being.
Open on book with a picture of the moon on the cover. The theme song plays on a toy piano. Narrator (voiced by Bill Murray): "Neil wanted to go the moon." Cut to Neil Armstrong (Owen Wilson), looking directly into the camera. Neil: "I really would like to go to moon." Tracking shot of a miniature spaceship flying straight to the moon. Moon (voiced by Meryl Streep): "Did you really have to land on me?" Neil: "Well, I had to do something. You know. With my life. But when you put it that way, I'm not so sure anymore." A french song from the 60s plays over the credits.
IllegalCharacters which director is this? I don’t watch a lot of movies but what popped into my head was a Sandler flick but you don’t mention Adam Sandler. Apologies if I’m being dumb
@@metaldragon8632 Its Wes Anderson. I.E the casting of Owen Wilson and Bill Murray, the use of wierd miniatures and stop motion, and the foreign language music. (Amongst other things)
The only time i've ever had a mental breakdown is when i had to debate in favor of flat earth during high school. I just sat in my chair laughing, i couldn't do it.
This segment came immediately after they read an ad for a podcast that debunks conspiracy theories. That sponsor is probably pissed these guys just stole their concept.
@@TheCarlosCobain Not just *a* Transformer, but *Transformer Satan*, which is a universe-devouring robot god who may or may not have given Galactus swirlies back in the day. And as if that isn't insane enough, they also completely ripped off that plot from one of the old cartoons (well, actually it was a CGI show from like the early 10s but w/e), and somehow did it *worse*. Same with movies 2 and 3 as well. Micheal bay understands physics less than a fucking 80s cartoon, and I cannot understate how funny that is.
"Face the fact that it's meaningless" funny how he's trying to portray himself as a logical and rational person and yet at the same time he jumps to Pat level conclusions
Was Neil Armstrong justified in throwing Michael Collins out of the reentry craft while in the upper atmosphere for rubbing his wife's feet? I think so.
I'm a Christian through and through but even I get the occasional esoteric crisis or bout of nihilism. Our brains are weird. They want us to live and think but also to stop caring and die. The fact humanity has made it as far as we have is a miracle. Thank God for video games, anime, and karate bug men.
@MegaLordBroly unnatural? uhh, dude, you're talking to people on other continents and in other countries at the speed of light using bottled lightning in a box made from metal and dinosaur. we passed "unnatural" 20 thousand years ago when we learned that whole "pointy sticks do more damage to prey" thing.
I went from joyful alien conspiricy to ecstatic crippling nihilism. Which is like, "Oh wow. The inevitible heat death of the univerise is the most horrific thing I can imagine... Weee video games!" - Pat 2018
We're not even gonna remotely be alive when that happens. It's like worrying about how busy working on Black Friday is gonna be for a store you don't work at anymore.
7:10 In regards to Ghosts, I'm kind of in this weird position where I believe ghosts and hauntings can happen, like I will be fully willing to believe that the spirits of the dead linger in this world, but I feel like I am far too cynical in the subject to believe that the various ghost hunting shows have actual, definite proof of them. Like someone will say a place is haunted, and I'd be like, "you sure? You tried checking the wiring or changing the bulb in there? have you eliminated any possibility that it couldn't be a ghost for you to come to the conclusion of it being a ghost?" Surprisingly, Achievement Haunter has been the most convincing ghost show to watch, simply because they start out silly so when spooky things happen it's actually impacting.
One interpretation of the Flat Earth that's particularly awesome is that Earth is basically a non-Euclidean plane where the edges loop endlessly (you could think of the earth as a treadmill under your feet). Kind of like Pac-Man. It solves the need of the ICE WALL at the edges. I haven't seen any flat earthers who have been able to explain the formation of an ancient flat earth without God. Gravity would cause the flat earth to crush itself pulling towards center mass, but how does a planet form without some force pulling bits of space debris together? And what force pulls things together specifically in flat orientations?
That's actually a really good question. I've heard flat earthers explain away gravity by saying the world is basically on a giant cosmic elevator, but that still doesn't explain how or where earth came to be to begin with.
@@balrogdahomie no, like a flat plane on folded space, where the edges are basically wormholes that link each part of the edge to a spot directly across the disc. a mobius strip is just a loop with a half-twist on one side. you're not going to be able to visualize this.
To be fair to the crazies, MK Ultra happened, so at this point if it involves the CIA trying something mindbogglingly evil/nonsensical/insane, I'm willing to buy it because man, it doesn't get much crazier than MK Ultra.
The moon landing but as they say “one giant leap for mankind” a bomb goes off in the rocket ship. The audience knew there was a bomb the whole time but Armstrong didn’t and then as the astronauts roam the earth they find a shower where they take a shower before an elderly woman shows up and stabs them, becoming the new main character of the film.
We see a shot of the rocket landing, we hear “Where do you go to my lovely” as the astronauts step on the moon get the flag and place it down all while being perfectly symmetrical. Moon landing dir: Wes Anderson
My cousin has that "secret knowledge" fetish. So when he came to me going on about how SCP is 'real'.... god... The reason problem is that the rest of my family lean towards actual conspiracy theories too (my grandmother believes that terrorists come across our boarder to.... I don't know? Blow up our jobs?)... so they actually treated me like I was in the wrong for pointing out "You are just reading X-files".
Hypocrite that you are, for you trust the chemicals in your brain to tell you they are chemicals. All knowledge is ultimately based on that which we cannot prove. Will you fight? Or will you perish like a dog?
3:13 straight up, many conspiracy theories exist just to serve as instant gratification. “I’m the smartest one in the room as I hold this sacred and secretive knowledge nobody else holds!” “Okay Jeff, please just take a plate already. The lines building up.”
Young people accept their existence is useless Older People accept the ramblings of a unknown ass hole who is probably a 39 year old Virgin who lives in his van and post everything from the Free WiFi at Waffle House
Look man, you're just too low IQ for my Rational Logical Skepticism. Try watching some Rick and morty then get back to me. I'm gonna go play ARK survival with my wife's son.
Stanly Kubrick was kind of nuts, when his movies were first released he'd super impose clips and images into the films, like Tyler Dyrden in Fight Club. Has some of the best scene transitions of all time though.
So I never heard about the ice wall theory, and my first thought upon hearing that "they got lost 'cause they hit the ice wall!" thing was, 'like the fucking Schwarzwelt from Strange Journey???'
I just wanted alien waifus. I have fairly low standards in regards to aliens, as long as they aren't a species of humanoid pug people with giant eyes that pop out of their skulls every once in awhile, i'm pretty cool with it. Damn govamants hiding all the extraterrestrial waifus man.
Look, I aint saying the earths flat, but I aint ever been into an Air-O-Plane, before, I Aint been in the space before. How the fuck would I really know?
Like Dante's Inferno: Animated film but instead of different animators have each segment of the journey from the launch to the landing made by different subpar directors of the action genre
I personally believe in aliens and ghosts and monsters and such because, to me, a world without those things would be sad and boring. Especially with aliens. We have this massive, ever-expanding universe and *we're* all that's in it? Come on. There *have* to be other people out there. Good or bad, I don't know, but they're there. They gotta be. It's just a waste of space if they're not.
The truth is that no one truly knows. No one has any idea if there are aliens or ghosts out there and no one knows if there is not. When people say there are, they have no idea if it's true. When people say there isn't, they have no idea if it's true. I say just believe whatever you want to believe, as long as it isn't hurting anyone nor are your forcing/pushing your beliefs on others. But the fact remains that no one truly has an answer other than their own answer. And we may never get it. Unless it's just straight up proven wrong like flat earth and etc.
@@SorakuFett Yeah it's far too close minded to say that it's impossible or not likely. There are multiple galaxies and the universe is massive. So when someone looks at it from a black and white perspective and says "nah there's literally nothing", it's burying your head in the sand within your own bubble ironically enough. But at the same time, when people say that they have evidence there's stuff there other than the fact that the universe is too big to have nothing, it's pure speculation once again. Both truthers and nihilism think they have the unarguable evidence and the correct answer but the truth is that neither side truly knows.
ok, if by "ghost" you mean "a soul that failed to move on", those aren't real. if by "monster", you mean "a supernatural creature", those don't exist. but that doesn't mean there isn't some freaky shit out there, like glowing predators that can weaponize seizures, sounds that can make you hallucinate and think you see a ghost, tricks performed with quick wrist movements and misdirection that look a hell of a lot like actual magic, and aliens. can't promise intelligent aliens, they're probably pretty rare, and you're probably only going to get one natural intelligent species per planet, assuming any appear at all, but aliens are totally real, it's statistically unlikely for them to be fake.
Some people just cant handle the insight(were on a tiny rock in darkness and there is no purpose for mankind other than to breed and die) and they frenzy up(religion, conspiracy theories).
I super don’t believe in ghosts but in the event I see proof of their existence i have told everyone I know that, in the event I say without any shadow of a doubt that I have seen a ghost, then they should start to worry.
Can anyone tell me who the last director was suppose to be? It sounds like a mix of David S. Goyer and Zack Snyder. Is it suppose to be the DCEU in general? Is it still Tarantino?
@@kyletowers9662 It's just my guess. Fly Me To the Moon and Christian references are al over Evangelion, but I have no idea where the muscular bit comes from cause from what I remember every main character is either a woman or twinkish as hell. Maybe Jojo's Bizarre Adventure got mixed in there through confusion.
Almost every flat-Earther I have listed to has an element of discovering the Earth is flat being part of like a profound new age or some such. Like it is almost time to emerge from the shadows as some shadow organization decides they are ready (a real but not exclusively the only version of the theory).
I love conspiracy theories. I love how crazy they are and how you could make a fun as fuck movie, comic or game out of them. Like, I'd be down for a game based on the supposed alien base in the Dulce Facility or a movie based on the whole Hollow Moon theory and other crazy alien shit, especially if it has lizard people. I could do without all the anti-Semitism in most of those conspiracy theories, though. Like, seriously, why do all these conspiracies always go back to ''THE JEWS DID IT!''?
But that alien thing is somewhat right though. The government had to insult 4 states on west america within a particular time at night with time lines that don't add up to the aliens hovering above that literal thousands of people saw.
