meditate & destroy punk movie
| Message Board > Show Reviews > meditate & destroy punk movie |
| ricky jak User Info... |  the audience was a mix of nice people with thier spouses. and i bet most where not expecting and hour of the graphic SELF DESTRUCTION that this character put himself through. prison, suicide attempts, punk, and ohh yes boozin and drugs. BOOZIN and DRUGS that make it so easy to quench the stupid pain that some of us hold inside our minds. "some of us" ....... I know alot of you folks have no problem with life and everyday is a happy day. a happy day as you watch the news or go down to the skatepark and watch the gangsters wheel and deal thier drugs then beat someone down. or a group of homeless crusty punks make a huge mess of broken beer bottles. garbage and graphitti. happy folks... you know the type. sorry ..... back to the movie. Noah of coarse never found Buddahism at an early age but the seed was planted.... HIS DAD HAD ALREADY MADE THE SAME MISTAKES in the sixties and that was the way he survived it. So one day on a prison phone Noah's dad made him meditate. And it worked for this doode. so he wrote a book and got some more tatttoos and then they made a movie about it. but thats not all Noah did.... he started shareing his expierences with others. helping others. talking in the youth prisons and more. got out of his head and ..... shared his story.... and he found peace. BAD RELIGION.... so what is it? I'm sure alot of punks won't give this movie a moments notice because we have been programed that any kind of spiritual thing is religion.... and just look at the news and all this religious shit! spiritual and religion are different. but don't try to figure it out because thats when it gets complicated. we the humans! the movie never really dug into the Buddahism thing but it did dig into the troubled human thing. I think if it helps someone survive all the stupid shit in thier head then "Thats what this movie is about" It had some good messages in it. Forgivess, peacefulness, Love.... WOW, who wants that? I think i would rather head on down to a "Lesbien Fist Magnet" show and get fucked up! YEAH. Love -ricky - Tue, 8 Jul 2008 6:41am | ||

| trevor corey User Info... | I believe in GOD, Ricky. I don't go to church, but I believe in a greater power. Something that is in us all, and surrounds us everywhere we look. I just call it GOD for lack of a better term. Life is often a struggle, and often painful, but that mostly just toughens us up. Believing in my GOD helps me get through it all. - Thu, 10 Jul 2008 2:37am | ||

| ricky jak User Info... | Yes I have always enjoyed the MaGs.... sorry i couldn't stay to see you guys. trevor corey I agree.... but somehow i think that picture of you isn't really god like. but GoD does create some beutiful stuff. i forget that most people don't have to search for a higher power because it's in them already. I think this movie is about a person who didn't have that higher power concessness. myself.... sometimes i see too much garbage sitting on the street that i am blind to the flower that grows in the garbage. -ricky - Fri, 11 Jul 2008 5:42am | ||

| lil miss thang User Info... | So you think he does NOT have a higher consciousness? what do you think his deal is? http://www.dictionary.com - Sun, 13 Jul 2008 10:02pm | ||
| ricky jak User Info... | didn't have ...... or let me try writing the sentence again. I think this movie is about a person who didn't have that higher power consciousness, and found it. - Wed, 16 Jul 2008 5:18am Edited: Wed, 16 Jul 2008 5:19am | ||
| KIMBERLEYKAOS User Info... | Did you read the book, or books, Ricky, or just see the movie? I read Dharma Punx and thought it was peachy, but have not seen the movie. Just wondering if you read anything, or just went into this, seeing the movie only, which I am sure could not do much justice to anything... Noah wasnt there - was he?! - Tue, 26 Aug 2008 11:44pm | ||
