On the morning of June 12, 1982, as the sun shined down on the green grass in Central Park, people began to gather carrying signs for nuclear disarmament.
It was a diverse crowd from activists to feminist and LGBT campaigns to mom & pop. It was reported that no violence, no looting, no burning, no racial tension occurred and it played a role in Reagan changing course, and helped get us the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, Jackson Browne, Joan Baez, Linda Ronstadt and Gary U.S. Bonds performed for an estimated 750,000-1,000,000 protesters at the Rally for Nuclear Disarmament on the Great Lawn in New York’s Central Park.



The Great Lawn Rally - Leslie Cagan was the coordinator of the 1982 NYC March for Nuclear Disarmament and Human Needs Rally.

Movie trivia::
The fictional 1981 arcade game Polybius of urban legend appears in the background of the bowling alley with an out of order sign on it. The legend describes the game as part of a government-run crowdsourced psychology experiment based in Portland, Oregon. Gameplay supposedly produced intense psychoactive and addictive effects in the player. These few publicly staged arcade machines were said to have been visited periodically by men in black for the purpose of data-mining the machines and analyzing these effects. Supposedly, all of these Polybius arcade machines then disappeared from the arcade market.

The company name "Sinneslöschen", is swedish, meaning The Senses of Destruction or the mind eraser. It translates from German to English as "sense-deleting".
Beware of urban legends.

One of the photos of the missing boys shown is that of a victim of serial killer John Wayne Gacy.

In Mackey's secret lockup is a Volkswagen Beetle. The same make of car owned by serial killer Ted Bundy.

Farraday wears very similar, if not the same make, of aviator glasses worn by serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.

In addition to baring similarities to John Wayne Gacy, Officer Mackey resembles Dean Arnold Corll, a serial killer who murdered at least 29 boys and young men in the Houston, Texas, area between 1970 and 1973. Corll was known as the Candy Man and the Pied Piper, as he gave out candy to local children; a similar moment occurs in the film when Mackey hands out popsicles to kids who are playing in the street.

The movie was shot at Langley near Vancouver, British Columbia and yet the town is described as being in Oregon and the positioning of a Reagan/Bush sign is a clear 'sign' the movie was marketed for American consumption. As far as I know there is no Ipswich in Oregon. There is Ipswich serial murders which took place in late 2006 near Ipswich, Suffolk, England.

Woody's mother is drinking a bottle of "Plissken's" dry gin. A reference to Snake D. Plissken, from the movie Escape From New York (1981).

Cruel Summer (music vid) by Bananarama plays while they are riding their BMXs. Exactly the same positioning in the Karate Kid with Daniel LaRusso riding his BMX to the same track. A cool nod considering it was released in the Summer of '84.


Interesting timing just before the big air strike... Iran releases supposedly secret Israeli documents...


But of course in order to view them, let alone translate to point you to their Telegram channel, which I'm not on. Probably fakes.

I guess Israel just blew up Trump's diplomatic talks with Iran. Fog of politics, fog of war.
