Liberty Movies

RED DAWN...as a kid i loved watching it over and over and over...the idea that teenagers could have an influence with guerrilla tactics helped influence me today...to fear nothing!

The Good the Bad and the Ugly has some very relavant scenes depicting the uselessness of some death in great wars and the stupidity of those who plan its battles.

I've seen some foreign films with overtones of survival and the abuses and hypocrisy in gov.

what about Mad Max and the Road warrior trylogy? lots and lots of great movies with something about individualism and gov tyranny.    Great thread!

I love the movie Red Dawn, it was awesome.  I wonder if things could really work the way they did it in that movie.  Now they have heat sensors which I guess could find anyone anywhere, so much technology I can't but think we're screwed.  I don't want to think that way but it's hard not to.

Das Experiment was pretty good. It is a german fictional version of the Stanford Prison Experiment.

 I meant the movie - Rob Roy.  Liam Neeson is excellent as a Scottish Chieftain done wrong who gets his justice in the early 1700s against the English.

Awesome!  I'm always up for learning especially those kind of things.

"A Bug's Life"...my favorite.

I never saw that movie yet but I did go into A Bug's Life show in Disney before and it was so scary!  Some of the bugs were in 3D and they had these little pokey things that were built into the chairs so it felt like you were, well, being poked by a bug. 

We also went to a haunted house there and there were these guys that went around and scared you while you were waiting in line.  I screamed and almost knocked down at least 10 people behind me.  I hate to admit it but I am fun to scare even though it's not fun for me.

Off topic, (what's new?), I was in a dingy with Rick one time and I didn't know his friends threw a live crab in the dingy so Rick is crawling around practically in between my legs trying to grab this crab and save me and all the time I'm smacking him calling him a pervert and telling him to get away from me!

I saw a great movie the other day:

I don't know if it is a liberty movie but I just saw and loved it.

There is a who scene which is pro-freedom.  The excuse the people use to cage Horton is "for the children."  One character has a speech which encourages others to do bad things.  Below I quoted the main character in that speech.

"Are we going to let troublemakers like Horton poison the mind's of our children?
When Horton tells the children about world's beyond the jungle, he makes them question authority.
Which leads to defiance, which leads to anarchy."
Kangaroo in Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who

Oops thats the older version.

To tie it in with the self sufficiency threads which I was posting in recently, here are two interesting movies:

OFF THE GRID: Life On The Mesa - Trailer

I know most people have heard of that one.  The documentary is available on DVD now, and it looks quite interesting.  I've been told by a guy who lives in New Mexico that though the film intentionally picks out some of the loony toon nutbars to make for a good movie, and that most of the people who are involved with these communities are very normal... he gave the movie two thumbs up anyway, and said that it is very much how it really is out there.

------------------------------------

GARBAGE WARRIOR

This one I just found out about, it looks worth watching.   This guy reminds me of a Free Stater in many ways.  This is a documentary about the guy who is the architect of the whole "Earthship" self sustaining, off-the-grid lifestyle movement which has several communities out in New Mexico. 

The film chronicles the bureacratic bullshit the guy had to put up with because the houses he designed, being very radical, off the grid, and promoting "green" technologies, were not compatible with the building codes.  They tried to shut him down, so to speak... to keep the Earthship movement from becoming the success it has now become, and he won out in the long run.  Well, at least to the extent you can win against the government.

A shorter clip of the movie: 

If I didn't have a personal aversion to all things southwest and the desert wasteland which is those states, I'd actually want to move there to one of those Earthship communities, or that Mesa community.  What they have going on is better than whats going on in NH..... except for that whole desert thing.... yeah... I'll take a pass on that.  It definately looks like those guys are more autonomous.  I'm seeing way too many cops in FSP videos.... always telling people to move it along, to stop blocking the entrance, even though your not blocking the entrance, arresting people for giving a pedicure and the like.

But Pat, you didn't cover the pro-freedom parts and the video clips weren't even in Blueray, seriously!
