Robin Hooding The Arrow

A header for the Whole in case anyone's interested. The tag was something like "Hitting The Mark"... I think. Hitting The Mark is a phrase that could mean anything from not sinning, seeing that some refer to sin in that manner, to hitting the proverbial target... Pertaining to sync perhaps.

The Whole has a long history of Robin Hood sync and is a analogy I think a lot of us are happy with. Having little play code names and everything may seem quite nerdy, and rightfully so, however I think that spawns from our willingness to make fools of ourselves and have fun.


Kevin Costner amittedly would of had some Archery skill, I imagine, post Robin Hood. I have to consider the fact that the scene next to Robin Hood above from 3000 Miles to Graceland was not a very long scene at all... So it would seem that it was not added to the script for the sake of Costner. I also like the fact that fire is invoked in both pictures... With the help of the cigarette of course.
I was having syncs. Like most do who find themselves reading this, where all of a sudden you'll notice a peculiar pattern emerge in the environment around you. I then was having Zero syncs. Everywhere I looked I saw, for whatever reason, numbers with a lot of Zero's behind them. 300, Andre 3000. It spanned over multiple digits, not just 3 and 0's, but the point is that during that time I see this movie and notice a whole bunch of weird things in the poster. Kevin Costner dressed as Elvis with a halo around his head from the lighting arrangement. And he has a scorpion belt on. The scorpion could symbolize anything from the constellation Scorpio to Judas, betrayer of Jesus.... Lets just say it's powerful. Add Kurt Russell to the mix and your gonna have a little sync party. I wrote about this movie and the strange fact that both Kevin Costner and Kurt played Wyatt Earp in my post For the Dead or Dying pt 2.

Eclipse/Splice



One day while driving home I saw a yellow ribbon on the back of car tilted side ways to look like a christian fish. The connotation of the ribbon in relationship to DNA jumped up in my head. A few minutes, and I mean literally minutes, later I was home reading VALIS by Philip K Dick. K Dick calls the christian fish a symbol of DNA if looked at closely enough. Dick expressed a theory saying it was a cue to release our genetic memory having something to do with the Early Christians true view on defeating death taught by Jesus.

The Christian Fish, DNA, and Ribbon where put together by Jake Kotze on his twitter account @seallion. I came around one day on IMP Movie Poster Awards to find Eclipse and the movie Splice put side by side. I quickly saw that the words have the same letters in them and came out at around the same time box office wise. The Eclipse was used a lot in the series Heroes as it effected their DNA. And the book cover for Eclipse shows a ribbon being Spliced. Splice the movie actually showing a DNA strand for the I in the poster.

Sync wise Richard Arrowsmith found the Splice and Eclipse anagram just before I did.

Your Hearts in the Right Place

I had this one up at The Whole. I think the hook was "Where Synchcomystics Go To Die."

The images are profound to a degree. The Heart joining the Towers', their subsequent collapse, and the connotation to the heart being on the moon in Hancock... What the moons gonna explode like in the movie Time Machine? I was even scared for a short time to go to Winnipeg thinking that's what is going to happen mass suicide in The Peg.... But that's just silly.

Also some say that The Sync Whole ruins Sync Heads. So then, well I hope you understand the hook now at least.

I like having a large range of emotions.... So I fantasies some what.... I just try to keep in mind what I want to happen, not what I fear will happen.
