<p>Rob Ager is a film analyst who reveals Hollywood's deliberate destruction of classic cinema culture. In this conversation he exposes how modern filmmakers no longer care about making good movies but instead seek to destroy traditional storytelling and values. The episode explores how scientists in the 1960s sought God through AI and alien contact, paralleling themes in Kubrick's 2001. Ager also discusses how Hollywood accepts negative spirituality like demons while rejecting positive religious themes.</p><h2>KEY TAKEAWAYS</h2><ol><li>Modern filmmakers increasingly reject spiritual and narrative depth, aiming to dismantle classic cinematic conventions and heroes.</li><li>Science fiction frequently reflects humanity's spiritual yearning, displacing God with AI, alien contact, or technological utopias.</li><li>Many classic films used subtle spirituality, allowing viewers to interpret deeper meanings rather than providing explicit answers.</li><li>Old movies encouraged audience engagement with ambiguity, while today's films often over-explain and avoid challenging mysteries.</li><li>Social engineering in cinema is complex; propaganda can originate from both top-level institutions and individual creators' biases.</li><li>Negative spirituality—demons, possession, dystopian technology—is widely accepted in film, while positive redemption stories often face skepticism.</li><li>The destruction of traditional narratives and values on screen mirrors broader cultural attempts to erase inherited social frameworks.</li></ol><br/><h2>CONNECT WITH ROB AGER</h2><p><a href="https://collativelearning.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://collativelearning.com</a></p><p>Mentioned in this episode:</p><p><strong>-- WASSON WATCH COMPANY --</strong></p><p>Swiss craftsmanship meets Christian conviction at Wasson Watch Company - where quality timepieces come from a founder who won't bend the knee.
