My explanation of Copperfield's Niagara Falls Trick 10.02.2025

My explanation of David Copperfield's 1990 Niagara Falls Trick, which is the only one of his tricks that I couldn't find an explanation to yet (when I made this video - now there are actually some, but I think my explanation is better ;-) Get full access to Emmanuel Goldstein's (Movie) Theories at emmanuelgoldstein1984.substack.com/subscribe

My review of the 2019 Jacob's Ladder remake (it's horrible) 05.02.2025

My review of the 2019 Jacob's Ladder remake - it's horrible - I mean the movie is though and my review might be too :-) Initially I wanted to explain the twist ending, but since this version doesn't really have a twist ending anymore (or at least not one that you don't see coming from a mile away) I am instead gonna focus a little on the terrible state of Hollywood nowadays, cause this movie is a...

Stop supporting the AfD 26.01.2025

Strangely, the moment Musk started to support the AfD and made his "my heart goes out to you" salute, AfD posters popped up everywhere and now suddenly and prominently had an "X" as their logo - with one side elongated. Like in all of Musk's companies. So what's going on? Did he just buy the AfD and is renaming it to X like all his assets? Also check out my article: Where does the propaganda about...

My review and analysis of the Chernobyl TV series 12.01.2025

My review and explanation of the (great) 2019 Chernobyl TV series. The videos in the background are actual footage that the Soviet Union shot (but of course didn't publish) back then. You can find it all and more on Youtube (or alternatives) if you search for it. Get full access to Emmanuel Goldstein's (Movie) Theories at emmanuelgoldstein1984.substack.com/subscribe

Hong Kong protest turns into "violent riot" after "storming the government" 06.01.2025

Hong Kong protest turns into "violent riot storming the government building" - not really, as they were basically let in by the police and faced no police resistance at all, but still that's what the Hong Kong and Chinese Government are calling it now and that's exactly what they wanted. I explain a bit about the protests in Hong Kong and the “storming of the government building” and what's really...

Old people are evil! 01.01.2025

Apparently Americans (or at least Democrats and Antifa and other left winged Americans) really hate old people... And yes I know the video of Antifa harassing the elderly couple was from Canada, but hey, to me America is still a continent...

My review of Netflix's Messiah 22.12.2024

I made this review of the 2020 show "Messiah" when it came out - sadly because of the Corona Virus, they abandoned production and never made a second season. So we will never know if their Messiah was the real deal or a charlatan. But luckily in my review I did look at some clues that might give us an answer to that.

My review and analysis of Dark City 06.12.2024

My review and analysis about my all time favorite movie. And yes I realize it's actually very similar to the Matrix which I keep bashing, but hey, Dark City came first ;-) Get full access to Emmanuel Goldstein's (Movie) Theories at emmanuelgoldstein1984.substack.com/subscribe

My review and analysis of The Exorcist and Dominion Prequel to the Exorcist 02.12.2024

What is the infamous horror Movie The Exorcist really about? And what about the sequels, or rather the prequels? I have a look at the original exorcist as well "Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist", which in my humble opinion is one of the better sequels/prequels...

Youtube is full of Neo-Nazi-Propaganda 27.11.2024

Sadly there is a lot of Neo-Nazi-Propaganda on Youtube (even more so than on Bitchute and unlike Bitchute they will strike you for "hate Speech" for OPPOSING and exposing it). But I really feel one should be allowed to oppose and expose Neo-Nazis, right Youtube? Get full access to Emmanuel Goldstein's (Movie) Theories at emmanuelgoldstein1984.substack.com/subscribe

My review and analysis of Batman Returns 18.11.2024

I forgot to mention it in the podcast, but Penguin’s look is based on Dr. Caligari (from the 1920 German expressionist silent horror movie) - notice how even the hallway in Penguin’s birth house looks VERY similar in composition: Get full access to Emmanuel Goldstein's (Movie) Theories at emmanuelgoldstein1984.substack.com/subscribe

Astrology Nazis killed The Orville (for me) 12.11.2024

I talk about why the Star Trek rip off "The Orville" has died for me and how the episode "All the World is Birthday Cake" from season 2 episode 5 that features "Astrology Nazis" and compares astrology to National Socialism, is actually spreading old antisemitic propaganda and not opposing it. Of course I get that the point of the episode (like in every other episode) is to attack religion... but i...

One Step Beyond: The Sacred Mushroom 31.10.2024

I finally decided to upload one last One Step Beyond episode that I just had to upload; the infamous "Sacred Mushroom" episode, which is the only episode where they actually leave their studio and conduct some experiments of their own... and even though this episode is in the public domain, or perhaps because it is, a couple of companies claimed copyright for it on Youtube so that they can show yo...

Another follow up on the Gnosticism in The Matrix 23.10.2024

In many of my previous posts I already explained that The Matrix is a deeply religious and deeply Gnostic movie and countless other reviewers have explained that as well. But what exactly does that even mean? What is Gnosticism exactly and where exactly does it come from? I don’t have all the answers, nor would they even fit within the format of movie reviews. But nevertheless, in this podcast I w...

My review and analysis of Red Dawn (1984) 17.10.2024

My opinion after watching Needful Things 08.10.2024

My opinion after watching Needful Things - as my movie reviews really aren't reviews, but more like an analysis of the symbolism and meaning in a movie. Sometimes it can even get a bit off topic and philosophical. like in this case ;-) Anyway, the 90's made for TV movie based on Stephen Kings book "Needful Things" is one of my favorite movies and it's quite deep and philosophical, if it wouldn't b...

Misconceptions about socialism Part 1 04.10.2024

I am starting a podcast series exposing misconceptions about socialism - Video series with 1 short video/audio for each headline:1. Socialism means social welfare2. Socialism means anarchy3. Socialism means democracy4. Socialism is what the majority of the average working people (would) want5. Socialism and national socialism are opposites 6. The people behind socialism are average working people7...

As Above So Below 20.09.2024

My review and explanation of the 2014 Horror movie, As Above So Below - about a team of explorers who venture into the catacombs that lie beneath the streets of Paris, they uncover the dark secret that lies within this city of the dead. It's very similar to Jacobs Ladder and maybe a bit of a rip off, but it's not bad and it has some interesting symbolism that I will go into in my video review/podc...
