Mel Gibson's Braveheart

It is a complete movie.. Tight plot and strong characters. 
Any student of Cinema will notice the distinctive style of Gibson The Director. The Slow Motion scenes
The Catholic version of Christianity
The over-the-top torture scenes of the hero
The crazy blood thirsty mobs
The foggy dream scenes in the woods
The sacrifice of the "hero" for the cause.. etc.
Braveheart (1995) is - more or less - a previous version of The Passion of the Christ (2004) !!


 Few are the movies that can still move me emotionally.. and this Scottish Saga is definitely one of them.

Darth Vader's Jewish Origin - The Golem of Star Wars

صورة
The design and concept of Darth Vader is partially based on Jewish myths and traditions. Many of Star Wars fans are already aware of the 3 lines of Hebrew letters that appear on the character's "Chest Plate", but here I'll provide more details on the "Jewish origin" of the infamous Dark Lord! Here you can see a close-up of the lines on Vader's breastplate from Return of the Jedi. The first & third lines are problematic and not easy to understand. אב מצש גלמציצ עד שלכה (Hebrew is written from right to left) The first line has 5 letters in two words.. apparently meaningless unless, with a bit of stretching it, we read it as (Father - Saturday) (AB - M Ts Sh) The third may be read as "till his cast down" (AD - Sh L K H) { שלכ sh-l-k = ‘cast off, throw down, cause to go’} The second line is the interesting one.. Written upside down.. It's more like a "label" than a part of a sentence, and the letters are: (G L M Ts...
