We have no great war, no great depression.
Our great war is a spiritual war.
Our great depression is our lives.

Re: Battle Los Angeles
Oh aliens are ok! They aren't real.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky

And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun

Don't get me wrong though, there are a few moments where it does become cringe worthy but they're usually followed by something even more awesome than what happened before.

Battle: Los Angeles...Commercial: Marines wtf?
So, I got suckered in because I am always up for watching aliens destroy the earth...but instead, I ended up watching a 2 hour commercial for the fucking US marines? Been a long time since I've seen such blatant propaganda in a film. Speechless. Awful. Painful. Laughable.
Our struggle is not against actual corrupt individuals, but against those in power in general, against their authority, against the global order and the ideological mystification which sustains it.
