PSYOP CINEMA

Ep.29 – Stargate, Moonfall, The Thirteenth Floor, and Anonymous, with Geoff Shullenberger

Geoff Shullenberger returns to Psyop Cinema, continuing his conversation with Thomas about Roland Emmerich. Having previously covered the depopulation themes of Emmerich’s disaster trilogy, Geoff and Thomas first consider the unabashed elitism and glorification of the manipulative artist found in Anonymous, before looking at how Stargate, The Thirteenth Floor, and Moonfall portray gnosticism, AI, ancient astronaut theory, and the simulation hypothesis. Emmerich’s filmmaking quality may be uneven, but he couldn’t be more consistent about his message that humanity needs to hand over control to an overclass of artistic geniuses and technical managers whose knowledge makes them worthy to rule the rest of us. They also discuss a recent book review where Geoff describes how declining sperm counts threaten humanity and possible responses to this problem.
