12-14-08 / 05:34 PM : The Beautiful Truth movie (cjed)
The movie The Beautiful Truth (see the trailer here), that is still out in US, presents a controversed therapy (based on diet) as wa can read in a New York Times article comments :
The laughable "facts" in the film don't prove anything of the sort. Objective analysis of Gerson's claims make them immediately obvious as quackery, not to mention that that on one side you have REAL doctors (you know, who've gone to school?) vs. uneducated self-proclaimed "experts." This is equivalent to having someone who read a few articles about bridges on the Internet telling a panel of structural engineers that they don't know what they're talking about.
The meta-narrative here is a fascinating study of how easily people become close-minded to science, reason and common sense while thinking that they're being open-minded.


The principle reminds what Steve Jobs said at first about his recent physical condition. However the chimical treatments are not so far in some way, as they are intended to reduce the metabolism, in order for it to focus on vital (unmodified) cells.

12-14-08 / 05:21 PM : T4, Day Earth Stood Still, Knowing, 2012, Watchmens (cjed)
Apple provides a second trailer of Terminator Salvation. In the same apocalyptic area (widespread/over used these times) we can find The Day the Earth Stood Still (see first reviews at imdb), 2012, or Knowing with Nicloas Cage.
Finally a new comics movie, Watchmen (whose name reminds X-mens) provides original scenes and ambiance.
