@MrBmarchant I chose not to take part in Rodney Ascher's project for several reasons - one is that I like to edit the presentation of my own work rather than handing over the presentation process to someone else - but I certainly look forward to seeing his film and I'm glad he's getting such a wide response to it.

How come you refused to comment in the new Shining documentary? Your insight of The Shining by far exceeds anyone elses interpretation IMO. It only seems fitting you would be in the documentary.

Hey Rob, i know you are probably too busy to answer. But what do you feel about the new Youtube forced design. It means people will have trouble viewing your videos in order and we wont be able to see your profile .

I'm certainly not suggesting that Jack is baphomet, that would be silly. I think he's making a pagan gesture, but perhaps not. There is an incredible amount of sun/pyramid symbolism in the film, but also I think the image of baphomet, which is involved with freemason rituals and ancient gnostic beliefs, can be found in the film. And even if that is not the case, I'd like to see all of the potential symbols highlighted in this film with PSP or some other photo editing software. That might take a long time, but someone should take a crack at it.

@periphetes It's true that SK encoded eye and pyramid motifs in his films, but as far as I can tell it was simply a reference to the Federal Reserve (the symbol of course appearing on the dollar bill). I mentioned in the article that the symbol is rumoured to be in relation to the illuminati, but I haven't seen any clear evidence the group still exists - but the Fed does and its global economic influence is known. I'm currently putting together a new video about The Shining that will bring plenty of sourced info about Jack's photo - ihes not baphomet, though it's easy to interpret as such being that people often have one hand up in a waving gesture in photos..

On your website you point out illuminati symbolism in 'The Shining', but you don't mention the image of Baphomet hanging from the chandeler. Also Jack makes the "as above, so below" pose in one of the ballroom pictures. And actually I could list more symbolism that you didn't mention, or I missed it if you did, but I want to say that I think you've truly figured this film out.

@ariespow Have actually has that idea in the back of my head for some time, but I'd probably concentrate more on the book than film as it's more detailed.

It would be cool if you'd critique the movie "1984" to compare to the world's current affairs.Anyway,GREAT VIDS!!!SUBBED

Love your film analysis, Rob.

I had a thought on the Renaissance decor in the final sequence of 2001. The theme of evolution by expanding consciousness is equated to tool use in the film, with the bone-to-spacecraft transition being the most famous example.

The European Renaissance represented a massive leap of at least one Earth culture from the primitiveness of the Medieval era to the more advanced state of the Enlightenment. I think the choice of decor here may be a clue that the monolith appeared on Earth many times, advancing not only our biological but also our cultural evolution.

It could also be a reference to the technological Renaissance that was coming to fruition in the 1960s.
