    Thanks, never saw this.

    For what it's worth, my take is the Moon landings were real and they did go ahead, though as we all know they were very nearly the disaster that had been planned for.

    NASA in planning for contingency shocker. Do you not think it would be down right weird if they hadn't planned for potential disasters?

    On the subject of hidden meanings in movies:

    Short version: "Zulu" is stuffed to the gills with hidden gay themes.

    Make of it what you will...

    Well, there was no 'final solution' in the 1940's. If operated as alleged, the 'gas chambers' at Treblinka would've exploded.

    Of course it didn't.

    Kubrick was a genius. All his films are filled with meanings within meanings and layers etc. I don't know about the OP but see attached for a decent gist of the argument..

    It has been done to death already though..

    Since the movie was based on a book by Stephen King, most of the argument here is complete bunkum (and that's ignoring the wild connections and leaped conclusions the author makes)

    A few guesses here,

    1; Your grasp of history is tenuous.
    2; You are not an engineer and/or have no knowledge of engineering other the pieces you have blindly accepted from random sources.
    3 and most important of all - your in the wrong thread or you have a very strange take on the shining.
