Jim Carrey, the Actor, gets God.. No, Actually he IS God, for a good Cause

Jim Carrey & some 500 folks in Hollywood "get it", called GATE, they're a new Org that wants to promote Spirituality & Create Transformational films. Must be as sick of murder/death/kill films pushed on us by major studios as we are..

Jim Carrey woke up one morning in "tune with the Universe", realized he WAS the Universe :)

this is Culture Shifting stuff folks, get ready for the Age of Love that's coming, and I take special interest in this since I began working on my book The Jesus Bolt about 6 years ago, waiting for the timing to be right to run it all around some film contacts..

My book is about how everything is connected, without being New Agey or using standard religious guilt trips and silly Rules :)

there's a New Dawn coming, and I believe Obama's the tip of the Iceburg..

many high profile folks involved too!

They just get in the way of doing whatever feels good. :)

Like the preacher say, "Them Cadillacs in the church parking lot out there, they ain't for Sinners, Brothers and Sisters!"

let's just say "different" rules?

Is that where he got the idea that he wanted to be God?

Define "irony"..... :think:

Are they going to make "Left Behind: The Next Generation" for the Faux Network?

I've seen some "Christian comedians" on religious shows. The horror...the horror...

It seems after he stopped getting roles and reviews, he felt the need to go a bit beyond his offbeat, hyper, plastic persona.

His whackadoodle anti-vax antics were not delivering the kind of attention he longs for, hence the escalation.

This is a has-been who would love to jump up and down on Oprah's couch, if only he could find the right in.

He's one of the nicest guys around, been making movies about the Human Condition, mostly lonliness, for years now.. I'll cut him some slack

it's not a fundy thing.
Just mention 'spirituality' and some people's eyes glaze over.

This is big stuff, the major studios are clueless, a chance for indies to score big, shift the culture with a story that has a fucking Moral for Christ's sakes :)

I don't mind a film with some sort of redeeming quality.
In general, a little shift in attitude wouldn't hurt.

We should all be so has as he's been. His last movie was not only profitable, it was pretty good too. The DVD just came out like last month.
What do you do that makes starring in a major hit motion picture for a multi-million dollar fee seem so lowly?

THE JESUS BOLT is an irreverent, quirky, highly original memoir, an environmental epiphany, and an eco adventure imbued with spiritual growth, rife with exotic adventure that will change your life.
 
It's the twisted, darkly humorous journey of Mick Swan, a drug dealing cab driver who loses his mind amid the wild west insanity of the Alaskan pipeline construction boom of 1976, and finds himself waking up with a hairy psychedelic hangover in a MASH-like mobile helicopter camp, deep in the bush. Marooned,  and at the mercy of reckless ex-Nam chopper pilots, he survives bear attacks, a fiery crash, near beheading, lusty women, and a village lynching while he's rehabbed by Nature, camp oddballs, and an irascible ex-'Nam pilot, who all inspire him to reclaim his wasted life, love, and spirituality, to keep from losing his Jesus bolt - the singular shaft of metal which keeps all the chopper blades from flying apart.
 
Mick Swan, a drug dealing cabbie, flees the wild west atmosphere of 1976 Fairbanks, Alaska with a twenty thousand dollar stash of LSD, lands in a M*A*S*H*- like mobile helicopter camp deep in the tundra where his new job is prospecting via a fleet of choppers piloted by armed and insanely reckless ex-Vietnam veterans for 18 hours a day under a relentless midnight sun. That's when he's not lusting after Cookies, the few women in a camp. Sure, he's scored one, and now most of the thirty other guys in camp are pissed, and some hold his life in their hands. After Mick's first terrifying chopper ride with Cassidy, an intimidating, irascible self-styled Shaman of the Tundra, the veteran pilot points to the jesus bolt up top, “All of these blades are held together with that single bolt. If you lose that, everything will fly apart. You will drop like a stone. The next person you will be talking to - will be Jesus, Himself...” Soon Mick sparks a deadly competition between chopper teams, barely escapes a massive grizzly bear/chopper battle after discovering a Lord of the Flies Shrine of the Caribou, and is chased, naked, by an entire village armed with hatchets and rifles back to camp where the veterans unholster their guns, ready to rumble, with Mick and pals in the middle. Unwittingly rehabbed by nature, he's led to spiritual reawakening by Cassidy, and trades in the false profundity of his cheap drugs for purpose in life and love. Since crashing in the stark, beautiful mountains of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge Cassidy's bullshit meditation techniques have unleashed within Mick black visions of a millennia of dwindling caribou migrations, while surrounded by skulls on a holy peak, amplified by his growing awareness of the destruction of their habitat by the same corrupt big Oil company jobs he'd lusted after in the first place back in Fairbanks. He falls in and out of love, steals choppers more than once, the new kid nearly loses his head to unforgiving chopper blades, and Mick initiates a general strike as the camp starves - then he gets in hot water for drawing a happy face an ex-girlfriend's diaphragm as payback for her cheating on him. The whole camp doesn't want to forgive him, though he's the reason they're all going to score big bonuses at the end of summer - if they Live. Mick finds out too late, long after sparking the massive competition, that he's now responsible for their success in locating the death dust (uranium) that could kill the planet, and everyone on it, that the real customer is Los Alamos.
 
He soon recognizes firsthand the impending doom of global warming in this bell weather state, and learns that while it all comes down to individual responsibility, individuals add up to a force that can save the planet. Here, at the end of a runway and the season, though he's lost the girl he really loves, he still meditates on the jesus bolt as an overarching metaphor - that which holds everything together, all of it, the universe, ecosystems, him. It just may be, that the Jesus bolt, is Love.
 
My memoir is a culmination of my ten, lean, savage years in Alaska, including two summers spent living in the wilds, sky-hopping by chopper all over the North Slope and ANWR, where we prospected for Uranium for the Dept of Energy and Los Alamos - as well as two years driving cab 12 hours a day (and Arctic Night) in downtown Fairbanks, AK in the late 1970's.

there, just cut & pasted what could find quickly on my IPhone.. Tell your friends & agents if you got 'em :)

Personally I think this would make a great film..

One more edit & and out comes the book :)

and this is very cool.

And another A Christmas Carol movie.

If only somebody could save us from the Carrey-Dickensless doldrums and make another A Christmas Carol movie starring Jim Carrey. And make it animated.

title is a triumph in itself! Best of luck in getting it out there. Recommended.
:hi:

Yeah, the title might give some folks the willies until they see the Metaphor..

And how many people can honestly say that Global Warming may have saved their lives, especially in the lare 70's? (when we crashed in ANWR our chopper hit a melted patch of permafrost, so it was more like smacking into a giant water bed.. Which kept out teeth from rattling around inside our skulls like a popcorn machine..)

lot of memories up there, should be used for a good purpose since I personally discovered enough uranium to kill the planet with a span of two summers :)

appreciate your kind words, again, thanks!

The Truman Show.

Truman Rocks.

Thanks for posting this, Symbolman. For all the many, MANY dime-a-dozen mindless graphic novel, superhero, toy-based, and shallow boy-meeets-girl flicks that exist only to make mega-$$$, there are always a handful of films with that special spark that help us transcend the everyday and view the world as the wonder-filled place that it truly is. If Hollywood types are making an effort to create more of these, I'm all for it! :hi:

To God's Ear :)
