  • what song is this?

  • My favourite song from my favourite movie.

    Is it weird that the difference I find most sad about the video is that... you showed a clip of leaves and these big beautiful trees. And then you showed a clip of New York City. In a matter of a few hundred years, all that happened. People frighten me. Sometimes.

    There's this book/movement called The Singularity is Near and it almost sounds like the second coming of the Tower of Babel. Gives me the heebie-jeebies. This reminded me of that.

  • Graphic images, perhaps..

    Reality of our world, certainly.

    If what human have done is "graphic", then we certainly have to think twice before doing it.

    Nice vid, 5* and nice music.

  • well done

  • sooo good. you amaze me on a daily basis

  • damn i havent watched this in 10 months and watching it again really speaks. cough...except the pray part at the end...cough. but dont let me bleed on ur beliefs, dont wanna do that

  • great vid. every time i watch it, it speaks to me a different way. u did an awesome job. thanks for posting it.

  • that was great...

    I'm not american... so things like the trade centre and new orleans didnt effect me as much...

    but seeing it in this perspective and in an almost world view of it all together... its kinda eye opening you know...

    its a beautiful world thats had terrible things happen to it :(

    (btw im soooo getting the sheet music for that song!)

  • wow.....this is really good, sadly true but very good

  • Good vid, shame about the "pray" message at the end?

    We need to learn that moderate religious views give credence to fundamentalist religious views.

    Mankind needs to make policy & ethics based on observable facts and not on belief if humanity is to survive.

  • Hebrews 1:11 - "Now Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."

    John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes is him shall not perish but have eternal life."

    Now if having a little faith in something that is not physically seen, but promises me eternal life, I'm willing to take the risk of believing it on account that if it is true - I will have eternal life.

  • If your going to quote scripture & refering to pascals wager, then here's some Philosophy & logical reasoning:

    Is god willing to prevent evil but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.

    Is he able but not willing? Then he is malevolent.

    Is he both willing and able? Then whence cometh evil?

    Is he neither willing nor able? Then why call him god?

    Epicurus (c 300bc)

  • Additional: This argument proves that the God you worship is either:

    1. Non-existent.

    or

    2. A malevolent sadistic bully, who uses mankind as a plaything for amusement and massaging his/hers ego.

  • one last thing... If its a choice between death or an eternity with a sadistic bully, i would rather choose oblivion.

    If there is such a thing as a perfect God, i would think that he/she takes no interest in the problems of mankind. So why pray?

    If there is such a thing as divine justice, then i would hope that a perfect God would favor critical thought over blind fear.

  • Who said anything about a sadistic bully?

    I personally don't believe the creator of earth and my existance is a bully.

    God is perfect, and takes all interest in the problems of mankind. Sacrificing his his son Jesus at the wages of death so that who ever believes in him is forgiven of their sins and may have eternal life is just one way he takes interest.

    I encourage you to read "The Shack." that book can explain things a lot better than I can. If you're willing to hear both sides of course.

  • sorry booshoe37, I left three comments to fit the text in, maybe you didn't read them all.

    I will find a copy of "The Shack" as i am always interested in gaining knowledge.

    May I also recommend:

    The Naked Ape: Desmond Morris

    How Mumbojumbo took over the world: Frances Wheen.

    End of Faith: Sam Harris

    The God Delusion: Richard Dawkins.

    And any scientific text you may come across throughout your day.

    regards.

  • Sure thing! I'll have to check a few of those out as soon as I finish Enders Game.

  • Okay, just humor me for a second. I just ate an apple... Is there any possible way that you can determine if the apple I just ate is bitter or sweet?

  • Pageepooh1203,

    You question depends on so many variables, and it would be impossible for anyone to determine the state of your taste buds, without further examination.

    For all i know you may have destroyed many of them through a lifetime of eating vindaloos. lol

  • Exactly, you can't determine if my apple was sweet or not. You have never tasted my apple and apparently you have never tasted my Jesus...

    'Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him. If you have, rejoice in the hope of the resurrection that your faith in Him brings.' Psalm 34:8

  • I do love that verse. Pageepooh1203, you are amazing!

  • Just because you feel joy in you're belief, does not make it true.

    I was indoctrinated into the church when i was younger, But then I realized that there are many inconsistencies, and that the current church chooses to cherry pick some aspects of the bible & reject others.

    for example; Do you practice sacrifice ceremonies?

    You have not tasted the sweetness of the gospel according to the flying spaghetti monster.

  • just noticed the typo... No need to comment on it. 'Your' Not 'You're'

  • part 1

    Answer to your question,

    no, i do not practice sacrificial ceremonies

    why, you might ask?

    because i believe that the Bible is completely and indispensably true, but you have to know how to understand it, by that, i mean you have to check to see who wrote it, when it was written, what was happening when it was written, and why it was written....

  • part 2

    and also who it was written to...

    now to get to the real point, why not perform sacrificial ceremonies when it specifically says countless times in the old testament to perform this act?

    well, to start it off, i think you're being a little hypocritical about the "cherry picking" thing, even though a lot of people do that,

    what i mean is, if you read on into the new testament, you'll see that there are no more verses stating that we should perform animal sacrifices, and there are....

  • part 3

    even verses that say we should not do that anymore,

    my point is, you are doing exactly what you were criticizing some of us of doing,

    now, to look at the context of the verses in the old testament,

    first of all, these verses were written for the Israelites of that time, - i'm not Jewish

    (i'm not saying that the Jews now still have to do this)

    second, do you know how the animal sacrifices worked?

    this is how (extremely shortened)

  • part 4 man sins, sin cannot enter heaven, man needs way to be separated from sin, hence the scapegoat, it needed to be an animal because animals cannot sin the sins of the man would be passed to the animal, then the man would kill the animal, to symbolize the total eradication of his sins now, back to the point.... why not do this? because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice, all you need to do now is confess your sins, no killing required... sorry about the really long rant, hope this helps :)
  • Amen dude... i agree 100%

  • and i mean i agree with matt....

  • this is amazing. you are amazing. thought i'd let you know.

  • Could not see the PRAY at the end because I had an add for Journey to Center of earth covering it. I finally saw it. Great Music. Good Video, 9-11 was a day I will never forget. I always cry when I think about it. thanks Courtney's Dad

  • hello.

    i saw this video posted on imoviesmakers home page.

    it is very sad.

    thank your for sharing these beautiful moments with us.

  • Nevermind, I saw that you posted the song in the info section. My bad :D

  • Great video, but would you mind if I asked what music you used in the background?

  • the cross ruined it, but still great work

  • lol it took me 3 times to watch the whole thing to notice the cross and the word pray :D nice vid really enjoyed it

  • Thank you for uploading this video. This shows all the horrible things we have done to the world. I am already trying to save energy.

  • pray.. thank you for this.

  • It shouldn't have. Not believeing is one thing, but hating a great video because of something as little as that shows what kind of person you are.

  • i watched this vid at just the right time...at a moment when i was feels a little introspective and self-reflective.

    i enjoyed it.

    the cross at the end was disappointing and confusing, however.

    while the video seemed to have a "global community-diversity" feels to it, the corss was exclusionary to anyone but Christians.

    as a non-Christian, i was left with impression that the video was not directed toward me...

  • wow. this is an excellent video

  • "pray" subtle yet powerful. great video matt.

  • amazzin

  • Wow. That was incredible. Thank you so much for sharing that.

    It may be different from your usual stuff, but it packs a punch and means a lot.

    :o)

  • This is beautiful,amazing,fascinating,­wonderful,wow.

  • FREAKING AMAZING.

    its good to see this side of you.

    such an awesome video.

  • It does make you think. Good job Matt. Its very deep...

  • i was just listening at first, and when i looked back it was the world trade center. you are really a great kid for making this, although it made me cry because my cousin was lost in the world trade center, i really like the music and the clips.

  • Beautifull

    =`[

    that was a very touching and deep video.

  • Amazing

  • Wow..

    This made me cry!

    Amazing job. It makes me realize how much I take for granted, and how small my problems actually are. I want to do more to help solve the bigger problems in the world!

    No one likes WorldSuck.

    <3 Erin

  • um...this video is what got you to realize you take stuff for granted? This is good, and I like Matt but theres a bunch of people doing this type of thing..

  • I think it's a good thing if a lot of people are doing this.

  • Well it sure puts things into perspective. And I agree with Matt, the more this message gets out, the better!

  • this is a pretty cool video thats why i added it to my favorites!

  • wow this is awesome. i'm giving u a pretend round of applause. i like how some people actually care about what's going on in the world outside of our communities. i don't really know what else to say but it's great.

  • wow :]

    what a perfect song to go with this. it really sets a mood.

    where did you get all of the footage?

  • spectacular video matt !

    catches the view of really whats going on in society past weather your sneakers match yoour clothes. thankyouu for caringg about the worldd.hopeee your life is filled with happinesss =D

  • i wish i could give you a round of applause

  • ah well, its gonna end soon

  • Love it, you sure know how to make awesome videos and variation is great. 5/5!

  • Fabulous

  • pray?

    -.-

  • This is a great video and i totally different video than what u usally do. Its amasing five stars ***** if any1 thought like this and wanted these events to be different wouldnt the world be a better place? or would it be the same cause we all want to do something about it but we never take action? well ur some1 who wanted to these events to change and u took action and this vid makes other people to take action to help people in 3rd world countries

    -daniel

    p.s waiting on the world to change..

  • ohh this is the video you were speaking of on msn that I couldn't watch at the time.

    It's really good though! (like i did say it would be =p), it really makes ya think about things. well done on making it =)

    xx

  • its extremely saddening to see that the world we all long for, a peaceful place to live is no so far away. i sincerely hope for a better world, but paranoia and lies spewed by all the world's governments have done nothing but bury our faith in humanity. excellent video.

  • great video

  • Now if we could get the 'truth' from the anti-America US news media..Read the 'shocking' documented 'truth' that they are hiding from the general public about their 'favorite son'B.Hussien Obama (aka) Barry Soetoro (google it)the registered and practicing Islamic Muslim...Go to the No.#1website on the internet "theobamafile"..WARNING..The 'truth' could be a hazard to your health if you have the "madcow obama" disease!

  • Wow!

  • The title fits just fine and thank you for the post....as I understand it the towers were built to with stand almost anything...thermite and diagonal cuts were the real cause...this was our firefighters finds. Corporation kills..for what?

  • Its ok coz i have a plan to vaporize people.

  • Good job! At least some people are putting thought into the videos they're making at home for YouTube.

  • My immediate thought from this video is my sorrow for the african continent (and third world) in the 21st century. Truth is we are over populated, severly. How can we humanely create a sustainible society. 6.8 billion. how can we humanely ensure generations from now will have a world rich in resources? think about this. save a few today at expense of many generations tomorrow? this is the sick calculus of enlightment and it eats at my heart. u are already seeing this with food inflation.

  • This is really well made - kudos to you :)

  • omg the amelie theme!

  • Thumbs Up this comment if you think that a Bush could've prevented most of this, but was too lazy.

  • this is by far, my favorite video posted by you. it totally makes you think about the world. and makes us think how we affect and change it for the better and worse. great job and keep up the work!

  • George Bush is the worst President in American history not because bad things happened during his Presidency.

    George Bush is the worst President in American history because he failed to prevent bad things that were preventable; he failed to prepare for bad things that were foreseeable; he failed to respond when bad things happened; and his actions caused bad things to happen that did not need to happen.

  • idk what to say about this video,

    cause the towers kinda bring back memories..

  • I'm sorry Whitney :-(

    that must be hard to watch.

    thanks for watching it anyway though, it means a lot.

  • yeh, it kinda was xD

    but no worries, good vid.

  • And here I was thinking you're just some kid who likes Ninjas too much.

    5/5

  • a common misconception from pirate fans ;-)

  • Matt, This is one of the best videos I've watched in awhile. The pic sequence and the music was perfect. As someone else stated...very mature. I second that , and add very deep and well done! I might also add--excellant-awesome-wonderf­ul! ha ha 5 stars!!!

  • that was really good, it really does make you think about what's at issue... However, i didn't really like the "pray" at the end, because i think that that was a bit of a generalization. I for one am jewish... :P

  • Wow good video..! really creative..!

    nice work :-)

  • I don't get it. Bad things happen?

  • My take on it is... Ignorance is selfish.
