WILL THEY HAVE 'MOVIE' THEATERS IN HEAVEN?

I know this is just my imagination running wild on me again, but c'mon, I can't be the only person that wonders what REALLY happened behind the most significant events or is reasonably critical of headlines in our history.

DISCLCAIMER: I'm not a history buff, nor an expert in any one area. I'm only including my current TOP 10 that I wonder about. If you have some, leave a comment!

So if I was in heaven, I would want to see these features:

1. What did O.J. Simpson REALLY do the night of the murders?

2. All the sports games that were "thrown" or "fixed" because of sportsbook betting/gambling, or insider strategies. Plus, all referees, coaches and players that actually bet. Since there are some folks that have been caught, I just wonder how many more are still under the radar.

3. The TRUE story behind the media and its operations. How does the media know where ALL the breaking stories are, and how they amazingly get there so fast. I have this belief that the media somehow "creates" some of their stories. Anyone but me think that the news media may be more powerful than our government, CIA, FBI and [add agency/organization name here], combined? And then, whenever the news attempts to report something positive, like after a murder or reported deaths, it gives some lame story about a monkey that can juggle, or birds have the same 'dna' as gigantic dinosaurs like a T-Rex. And who is REALLY controlling the weather??!!!!!

4. The REAL story behind televangilists.

5. goverment secrets (all major countries)

6. Is Bin Laden REALLY alive, and if so, where has he been hiding all this time?

7. Why do the same 'natural disasters' always happen in virtually the same places? Do you know what I mean? Hurricanes tend to happen along Atlantic coast; tornados through the mid-west; earthquakes (the big ones) in the west; typhoons and tsunamis in the far east. I dunno, for things that happen naturally, it's just funny to me that they predominantly occur in very recognizable regions, in predictable and somehow unusually familar "record-breaking" fashion.

8. Are drug and other medical research companies using third-world countries as their 'test subjects', where absent civil rights and corrupt governments are still predominant? The movie Constant Gardner got me wondering. And what independent 'clinical studies' do these drug and diet supplement companies use when they advertise their products? Are they so obsure that you can't release the name of these so-called research facilities? How about a little more disclosure before we decide to put foreign chemicals inside our bodies? Many people pay good, honest money for them, how about a little more transparency?

9. Who is TRULY benefitting from tobacco and oil companies? I bet there is an A-list of politicians and several millionare/billionare folks in there.

10. Are there really UFOs or is it just strategically released pieces of information used to distract people. PLUS, why are almost ALL UFOs round, with a ring-like feature, almost like the planet Saturn. C'mon now, are we getting lazy on imagination or what!!!

These are my current top 10. How did I arrive at these ideas & questions? I am a normal guy, grew up watching most of the same cartoons (now classics), reading/listening to the same news/media, and started with probably the same imagination template as the next person. (How imagination develops, and its capacity, differs from person to person).

Here are the movies/show that fuel my thinking/imagination: Truman Show; Good Night, and Good Luck; The Insider; Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room; V for Vendetta; Super-Size Me; National Treasure; Constant Gardner, Michael Clayton and the T.V. series LOST.

Yes, it is not the most stellar movie list. I'm not offering movie reviews here, and I am open to other suggestions. The media, these certain movies and t.v. shows sparked a unique curiousity, one that leads me to question what has been fed to us as reality, the intepretation of it, and/or what portion to believe. Plus, other recurring events like the massive toy, meat, produce, automotive recalls, and unusually volatile market conditions, which in my opinion, present injustice issues-are issues that we (the consumer) often end up paying double for. Anyone out there lookin out for the 'little man'?!!!!!


As 'crazy' as my imagination can be at times, I am being honest here about my curiousity.
