So I find out Robert De Niro was replaced five years after I found out Al Pacino was replaced, but in that five years I've watched the movie Heat a few times. In that one the two imposters have an "act off" in a diner. "Well," I thought, "that's spoiled my enjoyment of that film." I said to myself the only way I was going to watch that film again was if I thought Val Kilmer was replaced during the making of it, I had no reason to, so I thought nothing of it.
Then last night the thought occurred to me that I should check Burt Reynlolds's last film wasn't deliverance. Then as I was watching clips of that film I wondered if it was Voigt's last film as well. I pulled up his filmography and Heat came up which he has a cameo role in. "Right," I thought, "that's three imposters and Val Kilmer, I better check him out.
Then I remembered that he gets shot up during the Bank robbery and comes to a meeting with his girlfriend while the cops are there and he looks different. The film is free in 1080p on youtube so I took some screenshots. Tweet loading 👇
It was true!! They've only gone and replaced Val Kilmer during the production of Heat in 1995. He's in it all the way through until that bit where he gets out of the car and gets pulled up by the cop. That's another thing. The cop says to the Facino character that Kilmer's (Filmer's?) licence and registration check out as a John Peterson, so we have another case of mistaken identity that is the fault of the audience.
If you watch the film again what happens is when De Zero leaves Chris in the backstreet surgery, Chris recovers and leaves the country. Then when the cops are using Chris's girlfriend to bait him, a retarded dude called John Peterson (who she's also banging) and who happens to look like Chris shows up. The Ashley Judd character warns John off with a hand gesture in a cutting motion which must have meant, "Fuck off John, we're trying to trap Chris." When the cop pulls him over he just gives him his real name and address and goes home. See it's two totally different guys but audiences are left leaving the cinema thinking, "Yeah, taking a stomach full of bullets in a shootout with the cops must fuck up your face and throw all of its features out of proportion."

Not Lieber & Stoller as well!!? Can't find any pictures of them from the mid to late 60s. They've got no songs released in their name between 1963 and 1967 so I assume they got taken out around the same time as Elvis Presley. They're supposed to have written Stuck in the Middle With You and Pearl's a Singer which I never would have guessed. Get me some pictures of them from 1964 to 1970 that says it's not true please.

Here's an interesting one. Bernard Manning looks like he was replaced in 1993 or 1994. He always denied that was racist (he was) but when he (the imposter) appeared on the Mrs Merton Show in 1998 he confessed to being racist.
I watched some of the imposter's stand up and one of his jokes was, "I came second in a Robert Redford lookalike contest ...a ni**er won it." If anyone's got any moral reasoning for replacing people, then it's not anti-racism. Tweet loading 👇

Aww you're kidding me! Richard Dawkins? I've got six of his books on my bookshelf and an essay from one of the others. The essay is God's Utility Function from River Out of Eden and the only book of his I haven't got is The God Delusion (2006) which was his last.
It looks like he did the book tour for The God Delusion then got took down in 2008 which is when he vacated the chair as the professor emeritus of the public understanding of science at Oxford. I don't think The Greatest Show on Earth (2009) is one of his works. I've been watching a lecture promoting that book at Duke and he just doesn't have Dawkins presentation of the details.
I've been looking at some of his tweets and they've turned Dawkins into a "pop scientist" like they used the Stephen Hawking imposter for - "the science behind the perfect penalty" bullshit. He's got one tweet there talking about a cricketer diving for a ball and someone's replied, "this isn't science"

This is a strange one. I was investigating an actress called Peggy Cummins and came up dry. I thought from reading her wiki entry that her last movie was Gun Crazy (1950) then she got replaced and her imposter returned to England to resume her career. Watching those English movies I couldn't tell her apart, so I looked into movies before Gun Crazy and there was one called Moss Rose which also starred Victor Mature.
There's another actress in Moss Rose called Patricia Medina and they meet up. I thought, "My goodness, she's an absolute doppelgänger!" Tweet loading 👇

That Patricia Medina was married to Joseph Cotten who played the baddie in Niagara (not watched it yet) from 1960 until they both died. I looked into his career and it quickly led me to Orson Welles who I learned was briefly married to Rita Hayworth's imposter replacement with Cotten (Fotten?) as best man.
That set alarm bells ringing for Welles so I looked into his biography and he made a trip to Latin America in 1941 like Walt Disney had done. My first thought was that he'd made Citizen Kane (not watched it yet) and then they replaced him but the comparisons I was using were from the 1938 War of the Worlds publicity. I did a Google image search for 1939 and bang! Orson Welles was replaced in 1939. He was never actually in Citizen Kane or anything after. Tweet loading 👇
The movie sees Welles in various states of make up and prosthetics, so it serves dissonate the public with his looks. It is also a well known hit piece on William Randolph Hearst. Now I got deeper into the Joseph Stalin replacement and it's aftermath and I am going to have to do a thread in the Celebrity Flux titled "The Russian Revolution," because not only did a lot of people get replaced, but also what can only be described as a counter-revolution took place that killed off the revolutionary leaders in the Great Purge.
By the time the Cold War started both superpowers were under the control of the same organisation. Hearst couldn't have been in it given his opposition and all his power and influence was eventually whittled down. This quote is from Hearst's Wikipedia page which sounds like it was written by someone who's still got a vendetta against him to this day:
I suppose they'd have called him a "conspiracy theorist" today but they hadn't coined that gem of a term yet.

Having got Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio as being replaced with imposters, I thought I'd check on the fourth character in Nicholas Roeg's movie Insignificance (1985) to see who it was based on. Turns out it was based on Senator Joe McCarthy so I looked on his Wikipedia page to see if there was any indication that he'd been replaced. It didn't take long because the two portraits they're using the are of two men
I am assuming the army photo is from 1942 because that's when he joined the marines and I don't suppose they'd take pictures every year.I've got a couple of new tools at my disposal that I'm using to make better comparisons. I recently discovered the "collage" function on my screenshots gallery which has always been there unbeknown to me. Prior to that I was taking screenshots and lining them up in my gallery and taking a composite screenshot from there or on twitter where the border between images is thinner. That was really awkward and sometimes meant taking many screenshots of the same picture to line them up and going back and forth between apps. With the collage function I can move each image independently and zoom in and out with my fingers. If I had known about this function five years ago when I started making comparisons the amount of time I could have saved is weeks or months.The other tool is a pair of electronic calipers which I first used last year to make the stripes on the American flag behind Donald Trump as he (they) made their speeches to Congress in 2017 and 2018 the same size. In the case of Joe McCarthy what I have done is used them to put the same distance between the pupils of their eyes.One of the things I've become aware of while making comparisons, and even before I used the collage function, is that an imposters head could be bigger or smaller than the original's and everything be in proportion, or that all the features could be the same but out of proportion. I am constantly trying to find images that are from the same angle and distance, thus the more difficult this task the more likely I am comparing two different people.Back to the actual replacement of Joe McCarthy and reading through his story - and this is so ironic - I get the impression he was helped into power by actual "communists." The whole witch hunt was a sham:
One of the most insightful comments I found from Faux McCarthy was his attack on General Marshall of the Marshall Plan fame. He accused him of being part of:
Now that's what I'm talking about - straight from the horse's mouth.

Saw this outside the Manchester Apollo today. "It's time to move" they say. Good advice if the city's gonna get nuked. Anyone who's interpreted the Sgt Pepper's album cover won't fail to notice it says, "YOU BELONG HERE" on a pile of dirt that looks suspiciously like a freshly dug grave. Message received and understood sergeant.

This is so random. I wanted to read the lyrics to 10cc's The Things We Do For Love on azlyrics. It's on the Deceptive Bends album which is the first album they released after Godley and Cream left. When I scrolled down to it there was an asterisk next to it and when I clicked on it instead of taking me to az's own lyrics it took me to Google which had become "G25gle" www.azlyrics.com/19/10cc.htmlI did look into the band a couple of weeks ago, but I got nothing to say from it. It did beg the question, "Did Gouldman and Stewart sell out Godley and Creme?" At that point I just put 10cc to the back of my mind and since then Supertramp have been emotionally exhausting. That lyric "feeling like a part of you is dying" came into my head yesterday after I had a dream with my ex in it that was quite profound. While I lived in Germany I bought their greatest hits album and she loved it. She'd never heard of them before. Anyway in this dream she's got another man she introduces as "The Ringer." Can't remember if it was Richard or Ralph and I'm saying to her "Barbara we've got to break up," but she's avoiding it leaves the house - her house. So I go looking for her and I can't find her, so I take to the air and I'm calling her and I hear her voice answering me so I come down to land and now we're outside The Ringer's house and I say to her, "Come on Barbara we've got to break up, you've got another fella and everything." She said, "Let me think about it," and she sat down cross-legged to meditate on it and after a couple of seconds, poof! She disappeared. I said to her boyfriend, "I'll have to come back, what road is this?" and he said, "Selwyn." That's when I awoke. It's just so strange that is the only song that links to Google because it contains the lyric, "You think you're gonna break up Then she says she wants to make up." Why couldn't they pick another song like Rubber Bullets or something to link to?

When he said "the world is run by fools" he straight away marked himself down as an "incompetence theorist." What percentage of opinion forming in the media comes in this shape? It's nearly all of it, isn't it? We're looking at all pervasive confidence tricks, "If the world is run by fools everything will be OK because I'm not a fool. I'm smart because I've got a smart phone and smart everything else." The World isn't run by fools. It's run by Streisand killers. I wonder if some of them haven't personally put someone to death, but have forced someone else to thinking that they're somehow innocent? I'm afraid it's all for one and one for all. If you're defending this in the slightest way, you're just as guilty as the most heinous killer. It's not the technology that's scary, nor is it what man is prepared to do to another man, we know all that. It's what man is planning to do to man (and women and children) - and they've got the full weight of the law behind them.

This is to be expected. There's a new video game IP (intellectual property) franchise by one of the biggest developers in gaming Bethesda called Starfield. It's a massive open world role playing game set in outer space where you can visit 1000 different planets.
When you start the game you can customise the playable character's face to resemble your own, but at the end of the main storyline the game presents you with a doppelgänger of yourself. They then introduce you to the multiverse (which is pure snake oil science I might add) and you can go in to the multiverse where you start the game over (it's called New Game+). You lose all your inventory and story progress but you keep your stats.
Basically you get replaced with a lookalike - that's the story hook!!! This is the kind of neurotic entertainment media one should expect from people who know about imposter replacements. It reminds me of when I said I was going to try and persuade an aspiring rapper to pay for their own "cloning"
Here's the sequence where you meet "yourself" ahem:

I know you didn't mean it to be funny, but it was. I mean, what else would the devil wear? Not that silly red suit with a tail that all those imposters wear! Nah. Honesty in advertising. I like it. What B's quoting there is from my post above that one which was a dream I had which was stuck in my memory. This is the post: Since I had that dream I've watched the movie Metropolis by Fritz Lang and gasped when I saw the workers in that movie going into their factory to start their shift. The way that scene was choreographed in Metropolis was eerily similar to how the crowd of men in my dream were walking in formation. When I came to in the dream it was just my eyes opening. I didn't have a body because that had been disintegrated in the blast. I think it was a prophetic dream and if the Trump body double dream I had is anything to go by then nuclear bombs will be used and some cities will be destroyed without warning within five years of the dream. That dream was about February 2022, so between then and 2027 is when the button is going to be pushed. Since that dream I have come to realise that World War II - a war my grandfather and his twin brother fought three campaigns in - was rigged by the so-called belligerents fraternising to achieve a desired outcome. Hitchcock and Disney were replaced during the war and Einstein and Oppenheimer were replaced at its explosive conclusion. That tells me there were people busy on another plan and the war was part of that plan - they could operate in safety knowing they weren't going to lose. World War III will be similarly planned and rigged to achieve a desired outcome. One trait I've noticed in imposters is how they become futurologists, "We're more popular than Jesus...I don't know which will go first rock and roll or Christianity," is just a small meme from one imposter compared to 1984 and Brave New World. These "predictions" are not prophecy - it's not inspired when you're told what's going to happen. These are promises - the promise to live happily ever after nuclear "war"

Youtube has been suggesting to me videos of speeches by someone called Alan Watts who I'd never heard of before. I watched one so youtube sent me some more. I watched this one about ten minutes ago and thought I'd better Google his name:
His Wikipedia page was the top of the search so I opened it up and started reading about his early life. I got to this part and it's just so triggering:
I was thinking about how to characterise the guy's spirituality and "back of a cornflake packet" came to mind. Then I thought isn't there a song with "back of a cereal box religion" in the lyrics? I googled it and it wasn't Alanis Morissette it was Edie Brickell, What I Am.

I just woke up before exhausted and I'd had the same dream for the fourth time in a row. Went back to sleep and had the fifth same dream in a row.
The dreams are so naff! I'm working at an ex-workplace with the people I used to work with having petty arguments and petty problems. I put it down to my latest discovery - which was triggered while investigating that Starfield game - that the protagonist of a video game trilogy that I played and loved and then fell out of love with, was replaced with an imposter at the start of the second game in the trilogy.
The series was called Mass Effect and I played the first two extensively but when I saw what they'd done in the third installment I didn't bother buying it or playing it. I'm going to have to get it off my chest in the Celebrity Flux board.
