The Lost Century- Review

 

Dr Stephen Greer has released his second feature film this year: The Lost Century- and How to Reclaim It. This is literally just three month since his previous release UFO Endgame to Disclosure which I review here: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2023/03/ufo-endgame-to-disclosure-review.html. Even though it is having a big screen premier this weekend at the National Press Club in Washington DC, a part of The Disclosure Project's big "Historic Disclosure" conference, it was released onto home media a few days before. It has reached number one in the ITunes charts, apparently. As standard, it is not cheap; £9.99 on Amazon and a similar price elsewhere. There is no rental option. Everything connected to Greer seems to be overpriced. Joining the Historic Disclosure webinar is a whopping £78. That would be steep for a real life seat, in my view. I won't tell you what they cost. This film was stylistically very different to Greer's previous works. The centrepiece is Dr Greer himself, as usual; but this time he is not walking round in his customary manner, looking as if his scrotum is about to burst out of his trousers. His physical presence is surprisingly low-key. He is presenting a live lecture wearing a casual unmatched jacket and slacks; his shirt is brown and he has no tie.
 
The opening act is a series of heartrending scenes of environmental destruction and some interviews with some understandably troubled conservation campaigners. Whether or not you believe in anthropogenic climate change, you cannot deny that the natural world is in bad shape right now because of human activity. At first you might mistake this for a normal environmental video, but pretty soon it becomes clear these campaigners are totally different to most others. They are supporters of Steven Greer's ideas. Most people in the green movement regard UFOlogy and its associated works as either a ridiculous fantasy or dangerous rightwing extremism. For the rest, it is absent even as a concept. The experts then go on to detail the free energy cover-up that regular HPANWO readers will be very familiar with, see the background links below. Greer has given a new name to UFO's, as if we need yet another change; AEPD- alternative energy propulsion vehicles. He thinks that many UFO's are manmade aircraft, although he accepts that some are still extraterrestrial. This is probably true, although in my view he overestimates the proportion that are manmade. He makes some new claims that I was not previously aware of. For example, Boeing designed a free energy propulsion system under a contract for the US Air Force, but when they asked permission from the Department of Defence to adapt it to their commercial fleet designs they were refused. The fact that a private company needs permission for that from their clients on an unrelated contract should tell us a lot. Greer stresses how important it is for any inventor who has a free energy design not to patent it and demand royalties; they must immediately publish it open source. They need to suppress their egos for the good of humanity... Yes, Dr Steven Greer really did just preach to you about suppressing your ego. Some viewers unfamiliar with the subject might be surprised at how old the free energy cover up is. It dates back well over a hundred years, hence the title of the documentary. Greer and his talking heads lament about the use of rockets. We're shown a series of rocket failures, which inevitably result in a fireball and disintegration of the vehicle, most thankfully being unmanned. However, of course some rockets have malfunctioned with a human crew aboard. This almost always results in death. There are very few exceptions; Apollo 13 is the only one I can think of. The irony is that rockets became obsolete several decades before we even started using them to get into space. As thrilling as a rocket launch is, it is superfluous. There are a few new exclusives, like some video I've never seen before allegedly of a test flight at Area 51. Generally speaking, I preferred this film to Endgame. I have fewer criticisms of it than I do normally of Greer's catalogue. It ends with some lovely animated enhanced reality scenes of a post-Disclosure world. I know some people in the community feel uncomfortable with that sort of thing; a bit like Karl Marx's warning about "writing recipe books for the cooks of the future", but it doesn't bother me. To be fair, I do exactly the same thing in my own novels, the Roswell trilogy. I personally think it was worth a tenner... just. However, I am usually more generous than most people about things like this. If you didn't enjoy Greer's previous output, you might still like this one. It is more heartfelt, I would say. Greer himself comes across as a more pleasant personality. It also has an array of interviews with people I find impressive. If you choose to watch it, it is streaming on all home media platforms now.
