“Vanilla Sky” Post 9/11

“Vanilla Sky” was released three months after 9/11.  Filmmakers had the choice of digitally-erasing the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and chose not to.  That’s good, because “Vanilla Sky” is a very 90’s movie – you could say the last hurrah before America was forever changed by Muslim terrorism.

Playboy/corporate owner David Aames (Tom Cruise) is (as he describes it) “Livin’ the dream.”  He has everything:  money, women, the ability to do anything he wants.  It is all destroyed when a jealous ex-girlfriend (Cameron Diaz as Julie Gianni) runs them off a bridge, leaving her dead and him mangled.

You could compare that to us.  Since September 11th, the U.S. has rebuilt itself, taken away the debris, but it is not the same.

David attempts to renew his relationship with the new girlfriend that sent the old girlfriend over the edge.  He has a date with Sofia (Penelope Cruz), chauffeured by “best friend” Brain (Jason Lee.)  David finds that Sofia has moved on without him.  She won’t say why (we know why), except to say, “I’ll tell you in another life when we’re both cats.”

David can no longer function and places himself in frozen hibernation – cryogenics.  His “Life Extension”, i.e., the “Lucid Dream” experience turns into a nightmare.


Critical reaction to “Vanilla Sky” was mixed.  Most of the praise went to Cameron Diaz (nominated for a Golden Globe) and the title song by Paul McCartney (nominated for an Academy Award.)  The soundtrack was popular.  Critics unfairly compared it to the original “Abre los Ojos” (1997.)  I’ve seen both.

“Vanilla Sky” is a very American take on the American dream.  What if you had everything and lost it?  What would you do?

All four stars – Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz and Jason Lee are perfectly cast.  It is Tom Cruise’s film.  He was never better.

There is a scene in the nightclub where he’s in the men’s room staring in the mirror.  Three guys pass by and one says, “Dude!  Fix your face!”  They all laugh, including David Aames.  Except the laughter isn’t funny except in the most darkest way possible.

Erika Kirk Illuminati Signaling

Mark Nugal Bullies Student to Death (UPDATE)

Mark Nugal (left) prepares to punch fellow student Xavier Nungarary, (right.)

Benjamin Franklin High School, Highland Park, California.

On Sept. 30, 2026, Xavier Nungarary leapt to his death from the 4th floor balcony into the school’s courtyard.  What led up to it and what was the response to this suicide?

Witnesses state that Xavier suddenly jumped over the railing after being beaten in his classroom.  The teacher in the class failed to stop the fight.  After being punched for a final time, Xavier ran out of the classroom.  Mark chased after him.  Before he could land another blow, Xavier threw himself over the railing.  This led to his fatal fall.

Xavier Nungarary ran, then jumped to his death.  Mark Nugal (who chased him to the railing, looks on.)

The school also failed to tell the parents their son was dead, saying that he was in the hospital.

The mainstream media has also failed to name the bully.  EricReports.com is doing so.  The MSM and the school originally reported the incident as an accidental fall.  Why is this?

Mark Nugal is a person of color.  To quote Bernie Goldberg, “It does not fit the narrative.”

Mark Nugal has not been charged or arrested despite the public outcry.

UPDATE

Police have ruled Xavier Nungarary’s death a suicide.  According to them, “Foul play was not involved.”

Erika Kirk Can’t Get Any Weirder than in Vanity Fair

Can anybody explain this pose?

Some say the Donald Duck toy is symbolic of Charlie Kirk

Why does the widow of Charlie Kirk, now CEO of Turning Point, go out of her way to prove to the world that she is deranged?  Erika, being the control freak that she is, had complete control and approval of the photos that appeared in the magazine.  She picks THESE?  The Freemasons, the Illuminati and the Kabbalah Club she belongs to are calling the shots.  The demonic entity known as Erika Frantze Kirk is preparing her political future.

White Farmers in South Africa Targeted with Death

Mainstream media ignores the annihilation of white farmers in South Africa.  Above is a witness and victim of the savagery which is being allowed by the government of S. Africa.  The so-called bleeding heart liberals who never met a cause they didn’t like, deny its very existence.  Watch the video and judge for yourself.
