Meanwhile, the hardened war machine driver Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron, A Million Ways to Die in the West, Prometheus), one of Immortan’s trusted lieutenants, is being sent on a mission to a nearby town for much-needed fuel and food. Taken back to Immortan Joe’s camp, The Citadel, Max is labelled a universal blood donor and hooked up as a “blood bag” for a half-dying War Boy named Nux (Nicholas Hoult). Max is captured by a group of albino mutants known as War Boys, servants of the despotic King Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne). After a brief prologue with Max (Tom Hardy, Locke, The Dark Night Rises) explaining how the world was devastated by a Nuclear disaster and become a vast desert wasteland, with warring factions at odds in the fight over water, fuels, and food, we are quickly taken into the action. The fourth in the series, Mad Max: Fury Roadis a kinetic amusement park ride that does away with much of the exposition in favor of constant motion and wild action. It took writer/director George Miller a decade to finally get this reboot of the post-apocalyptic action franchise Mad Max onto the big the screen, and it was more than worth waiting for. The film was a big hit in Australia, but a dumbed-down, North American English dub that even replaced the voice of American-born Gibson crippled it in the American market. Miller brilliantly uses the barren and bleak landscape of the outback to portray a post-apocalyptic dystopian future and the car chases are a must for gearheads. It sets him off on a violent path of revenge – and Mad Max is born. When Max Rockatansky (Gibson), kills an escaped prisoner called Nightrider, he comes up against a gang of ruthless bikers who terrorize his friends and his family.

Yorkey, speaking to EW, said: "The threads of this mystery, like who’s doing this and why and how does it relate to Hannah Baker and how does it relate to what Jessica went through, it all comes together in the later episodes in a way that I think is really satisfying and also speaks to some of the underlying themes that we’re talking about like sexual abuse and the endemic nature of sexual abuse and the way institutions sometimes wittingly or unwittingly allow it to continue. We now know the 'device' is polaroids thanks to the teaser. We better all start Googling 'other analogue devices' now." He later teased: "There will be a new piece of technology for 13-year-olds to Google and try to understand what it was," he joked. "So the cassette tapes aren’t at the center of it - those two boxes of tapes are still hanging around and matter to people," said Yorkey.

Music critics like John Bush of All Music Guide and Andy Gill of The Independent labeled it as one of the album's best tracks. However, he compared it to Girls Aloud's " Biology", writing that they sound like a collection of musical ideas "that only makes sense after a few listens." Another writer for Digital Spy, Nick Levine, praised "I Gotta Feeling" and " Rock That Body" as ace collaborations with French disc jockey David Guetta. David Balls, a writer for Digital Spy, gave the song a four-star rating, writing that the song is "every bit as quirky as its predecessor (" Boom Boom Pow")".

Ann Powers of Los Angeles Times noted the song's similarities to Five Stairsteps' song " Ooh Child", writing that it emulates the song's "use of a repetitive, warm vocal line to signify a good mood coming on." According to Jimmy Iovine of the Interscope Geffen A&M label group, the melody was inspired by the U2 song " I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight": "I sent will.i.am over to the studio to do some remixes on I'll Go Crazy. ![]() The "woo-hoo" line is sampled from The Police's song " Every Breath You Take". The song samples a beat from the song "Take a Dive" by Bryan Pringle. The song begins in a restrained fashion then moves into a throbbing dance beat that changes patterns so that at least one reviewer thought it shifted tempos, although in fact the tempo does not change at all, suggesting the use of a click track in recording. It follows in the inspirational dance-pop theme of The E.N.D, being built upon the heavy use of Auto-Tune and futuristic synthesizers while running through a tick-tock rhythm. The song is an uptempo dance-pop song that runs a length of four minutes and 49 seconds. Times are really hard for a lot of people and you want to give them escape and you want to make them feel good about life, especially at these low points."

![]() ![]() However, the writing style for the entire book of Daniel requires that it be dated much earlier than 165 BCE. Since there is no prophecy in the initial six chapters, that is acceptable to Naturalists. In support of this conclusion by analogy, Naturalists believe it is okay to place the initial six chapters of the book of Daniel as being written at an earlier time than 165 BCE. In the same way, the Aramaic found in the book of Daniel does not fit the era of 165 BCE. Many of the words take time to decipher for someone used to reading 21st century English. With thousand echo's still prolongs each heav'nly close. Consider the following example from the 17th century written by Milton:Īs all their souls in blisfull rapture took: The style of writing and word usage date when the literature was written. This is a true statement for English as it is for Aramaic and Hebrew. Have you ever read Chaucerian English (14th century - 700 years ago) or Miltonian English (17th century - 300 years ago)? Consider the following example from the 14th century written by Chaucer: Perhaps the easiest way of understanding why Daniel was written about 530 BCE is by using the English language from another era. However, Naturalists favor the 165 BCE date due to their bias. Even Naturalists accept that the style of writing would place the book of Daniel centuries earlier than the 2nd century BCE. By comparing the texts of the Elephantine Papyri to the texts of Daniel, scholars have concluded that the textual style of Daniel places the book within the era of the 5th century BCE. These documents are called the Elephantine Papyri. 1: Documents written in 5th century BCE Egypt ( ~495 BCE TO ~402 BCE ) reveal unique textual and linguistic styles from that era. To this end, conservative scholars take the position that the book of Daniel was written centuries before 165 BCE. The data supports that we live in a universe under supernatural control. Only a Being living outside the control of time can consistently reveal the future. In addition, archaeological finds continue to be found that support the Christian faith. Christians logically accept and believe that Jesus fulfilled these prophetic words. ![]() Daniel's words foretold of a Messiah that would be killed at Jerusalem before the temple and Jerusalem were destroyed in 70 CE. Since the future was revealed, it appears that God has revealed spiritual truth to humankind. ![]() The Einstein Method reveals that Daniel received words from outside time-space through the Archangel Gabriel. As you review the evidence presented at these web sites, keep in mind that we have shown that Naturalists are biased against the reality of prophecy.Ī Defense of the Authenticity of the Book of Daniel There are only 14 chance in a 1,000 that this conclusion is not true ( due to random error ).īelow are reference web sites that successfully defend that the book of Daniel appears to have been authored in the 6th BCE. Based on the evidence, modern scholars ( Naturalists ) are biased against the reality of prophecy at the 98.5% confidence level. Even if we use 165 BCE as the date of authoring Daniel based on Naturalist bias, Daniel's 70-weeks prophecy contains a very accurate forth telling of the Christian faith. Naturalists use 165 BCE as the date of authorship for the book of Daniel. Evidence Supporting 6th Century BCE Authorship Date ![]() ![]() Is it maybe that something is wrong inside my PC?
