<Originally posted by goth1856 ...about the virus anology...ever notice a satell pix of modern civilization on the face of the earth is just like a colony of virus on the host? it begged the question are we the virus plague apon the planet?> Yep. But there's consolation... <What would you like to come back as? King over the British? After Blair they will believe anything you tell them. Keep that review of Bush- pushing further and further to greater failure (madness). > Howdy Bader That's the fate of the lions: to drag everybody else and themselves into doom. If there's any consolation is that they'll meet their justice. They'll be swallowed by the jungle... Film 'Aguirre: The Wrath of God' "The centerpiece of the story is the figure of Aguirre, played with crazed demonism by Klaus Kinski. He's terrifying in the part -- his lips contort underneath cold blue eyes that convey a ruthlessness that slips, not so slowly, into insanity. By placing him and his arrogant delusions about himself and the environment he finds himself in, Herzog seems to be criticizing the entirety of Western culture, from imperialism to Nazism to the American occupation of Vietnam. Aguirre and those who follow him are ultimately destroyed by their own delusions of grandeur; in the end, the world they're confronting is simply too large and complex to be encompassed by their petty plans and ambitions." http://reviews.imdb.com/Reviews/120/12030
