2012 Presidential election


There's a great article on Cracked.com analyzing how this film "predicted" the 2012 election. It's actually the last part of a 3-part article, but you'll get the idea. Check it out.

How absolutely ridiculous. Calling some interpretations a prediction is not only ridiculous, but stupid.

You could pick pretty much any past film and find interpretive similarities in a situation from today. That's not a prediction, that's just a sad excuse to write an article that you think will intrigue people. In reality, it's nothing. The film First Blood predicted the downfall of Hosni Mubarak's government in Egypt. Rambo is the down trodden, abused people. The sheriff is Mubarak and his government. The protests are the fight between the two. In the end, the sheriff is brought down. See, First Blood predicted it.

Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. The Great White Hype is a good film, though.


The plural of mouse is mice. The plural of goose is geese. Why is the plural of moose not meese?
