I was patiently waiting for you to satisfy yourself with your ITK analysis.


For your information, the movie is a true life story, so why don't you go and act as an attorney for the Emily's family.

Maybe you will help them get the justice you think they deserve.

iSufferFools:
Kaycee7. I understand now. I actually stopped playing Tekken after Tekken 4. Before the introduction of Kazumi. Didn't even know know her name until you mentioned it.

I'm sure you know prior to her introduction, players believe the devil gene was an abnormality in the Mishima bloodline, and Heihachi's hatred for Kazuya was that he didn't inherit it (my personal opinion though).

Anyway, it's good to know. Didn't even know there's Tekken 7 now. Stopped playing video games after I discovered Anime/Manga.

TissuePaper:
i know that it is a true life story, that's why I'm taking it really seriously....if it were to be fiction I'd not have bothered...if her family is willing to pay then I'll refile / reopen the case, and give Emily a well deserved representation.

Tekken is my best fighting/combat game

TissuePaper, I've not watched the said film, hence I didn't read your analysis because it's filled with spoilers and will ruin the fun for me when I finally decide to watch it. Can't comment on your analysis for now.

TissuePaper:
The Exorcism of Emily Rose
Rating - 4.5/10

Reason /Analysis

A good number of you guys may wonder why I gave the movie such a low rating, well the reason is not because of poor acting or cinematography or graphics, rather it's behind the message the movie seeks to pass.

Emily was an 18yr old girl who won a scholarship to study her dream course in college, and before now, Emily didn't show any signs of demonic possession but it was after she left home and stayed in the University for sometime that the demons decided to make a go on her, why?.. Is it that their house was a kind of hindrance to the demons or it wasn't time for the possession, This brings me to my number 1 point that Emily was not under demonic possession but she was actually suffering from extreme psychosis, epilepsy and schizophrenia... Which was proven by Ethan Thomas that she had actually suffered from Epilepsy during her early years.

Now could it be that earlier in her life when she recovered from the illness the epilepsy went recessive for some time and then resurfaced when Emily gained admission into the University, which I believe could have been a consequence of environmental factors being that her body was still trying to adapt to her newly found environment without the comfort or presence of her sisters and other members of her family.

The epilepsy must have become more aggressive over time and this is not uncommon for epilectic patients.

Also, I find it disappointing that the jury actually favoured the priest who was in all ramifications a bona-fide causative factor of Emily's death...a court is expected to listen to reason and proven facts which was exactly what Ethan Thomas presented to them, why should they have given the priest a time served sentence... That was really uncalled for... I am not entirely dismayed by the action but I do believe that the priest deserved an exemplary punishment to ward off further practice of exorcisms.

The visions Emily was seeing where purely brain work or mind games as I'd call it, it wasn't real..not even a tiny bit but instead of the priest to advise the poor girl to be diligent in taking her medication he was instead cajoling her not to and telling her that the drugs was a hindrance to the success of the exorcism... That's just all shades of wrong because although she was not responding to treatment at the time but we all know these kind of illnesses take time to heal or cure.

Don't get it twisted tho, I love the movie, and I was so scared that I couldn't continue watching it at night, I had to wait till morning to finish it.. Lol.

It's a good one nevertheless

What's your take

hey bro.. It's like u re an atheists.. Or agnostic.

Well every story got a two side, and as far as am concerned, the movie is a 2 perspective scripted story line.

A Christian watching that movie will agree 100% that Emily was surely possessed.
Me am agnostic, but lack of evidence doesn't dispute a reality.
Mind u Emily spoke aramaic and some wired languages which she couldn't have held knowledge of. Even if she learnt it in her catechism days, there is no way she could have uttered those words perfectly mot a mot taking into cognizance that it's not her lingua franca.
That movie is a 2 way perspective movie I maintain.

The judge tampered justice with mercy by giving her time served sentence, cos the judge himself was more even confused because both of the parties were good at what they did.

So overall, u scoring the movie 4/10 is way underrating and a slap on the face to the producers.. That movie surely deserves more..

10/10 for me bro.

You must have not watch Sorry To Bother You. The driest comedy I've seen in a while.

Kaycee7:
If you're thinking about taking up the real-life case, read up on it. The priest acted with the parents and Anna Michel's (The person the Emily Rose character is based on) permission. Her parents were on trial along with the priest. So don't be expecting the family to hire you.

KoiceReloaded:


It's being a while since I watched that movie (10-12 years ago more or less), so I'm unable to recall the fundamentals, but as an agnostic myself, I can relate to most of your criticisms. I think they are quite reasonable.

TissuePaper:
hmm, are you sure her parents where also on trial with the priest...if that's true then the film failed to portray that part, Also if you watched the movie you will come across a part where the priest admitted to suggesting to the parents that she(Emily) should stop taking medication(gambutrol) as the illness was more spiritual than physical and therefore an exorcism was the only way out.

In law we call this a contract of 'Uberimae Fidei', that is a contract of utmost good faith, that is to say that the parents were acting solely on the belief that the priest being their superior was right in his advice, therefore the accountability would have hovered solely on the priest because the parents were not the ones that spearheaded the exorcism though their consent was given, they were merely acting under the instruction of their superior(priest).

Kaycee7:
Didn't watch the movie. But was compelled to read up on the story after Alexistaiwo pointed out that the record of the demonic voices from the exorcism was used in the movie. As a Catholic, I find the accounts both confusing and disturbing.

KoiceReloaded:


I actually enjoyed Sorry to Bother You. The movie has a certain cringe-inducing factor that I find very endearing and relatable. The twist was a drag of course, but the point it made was crystal clear.

JeromeBlack:


I understood the central point of the movie. The jokes were more weird than funny.

KoiceReloaded:

Like I said, cringe-inducing. The humor is intentionally uncomfortable, but if you can get past that, it's an okay movie.

JeromeBlack:

I read your comment in my white voice

KoiceReloaded:


Lmao

You wouldn't mind a quick synopsis, would you? The synopsis expert, Oyetpel, is on standby to give you a quick summary.

Beorn:


Oyetpel don suffer for your hand. LOL @is on standby.

ComradeShegs:

Try netnaija

KoiceReloaded:


Well, he did an ace job on The Apostle, didn't he? It's a no brainer that he's the perfect man for the job. I mean, why waste your mb on an old movie when a synopsis machine like Oyetpel can tell you everything you need to know with just a few words, heh?

Beorn:


From 'synopsis expert' to 'synopsis machine' LMAO.


I think Oyetpel did a shoddy job compared to TissuePaper. With Oyetpel's, there's still something to look forward to in the movie. But with TissuePaper's analysis, one can tell everything that happened in the film, scene by scene. It's like watching the premiere of the movie. The analysis be like project work.

guy how you do am?
