Jake Green is Dissolving the Ego
Dissolving the Ego
Please watch the trailer. Better yet, watch the movie. It's all there, in a beautifully crafted story.
REVOLVER
[link to www.imdb.com]

"The formula has infinite depth in its efficacy and application, but it is staggeringly simple and completely consistent. Rule one of any game or con, you can only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent. Rule number two: The more sophisticated the game, the more sophisticated the opponent.

If the opponent is very good, he will place his victim inside an environment he can control. The bigger the environment, the easier the control. He’ll toss the dog a bone, find their weakness, give them just a little of what they think they want. So the opponent simply distracts their victim by getting them consumed with their own consumption… The bigger the trick and older the trick, the easier it is to pull, based on two principles: They think it can’t be that old, or they think it can’t be that big for so many people to have fallen for it.

Eventually, when the opponent is challenged or questioned, it means the victim’s investment, and thus his intelligence, is questioned. No one can accept that. Not even to themselves.”

You have to watch it more than once. Its all there. All the symbols, the names of the characters, the hidden helping hands, etc. How he is able to play the game without thinking. The number of years it took him to manifest...wow.

The chess game. The inability to kill him. How he purely relies on intuition to play the game, etc.

It is like a trigger word. I think higher ups call the game a chess game.

Re: Jake Green is Dissolving the Ego
Watched it with Tim last year, I was laughing and kind of blown away... he's sitting there all skeptical. Then it hits him, he says... So the whole time, Jake's really battling his own ego? I say yup and he grinned... Why I love him, he'll be bumfuzzled, then just get something without me having to break it down :) He's not "book smart", but he's invented like a brazilian things, will never do more than prototype them for his own use or someone local. Were he money driven we'd not be together, so it works, I'm guessing, lol.
