Bluetooth Speaker for Car – Bypass the Phone and the Headset, Receive Calls Directly in Your Car!

January 10th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

Most modern day cars already have some form of Bluetooth integration. What this means is that instead of strapping on an earphone, you can receive and make calls using the car Bluetooth speaker. But in case your car is slightly older or doesn’t have an in-built Bluetooth, you can always invest in a Bluetooth speaker for car that will free your hands and help you concentrate more on the road, less on the phone.

Here’s how this works: if you get a call on your cellphone, you can use your Bluetooth headset to answer it. This is comparatively less distracting than answering a phone directly. But a lot of people either don’t like using headsets, or find that it distracts them from driving. Consequently, most modern cars come equipped with car Bluetooth speakers. These are typically built into the steering wheel. When you receive a call, you can either press a button (located on the steering wheel), or use a voice command to answer or reject it. This frees your hands completely, and distracts you even less from driving than a standard headset.

If your car doesn’t already have Bluetooth integration, you can buy these speakers separately and hook them up to your steering wheel. Most of these speakers will feature a microphone and a speaker (for calls), a LCD display (to show you who is calling), a SD port (to save MP3s) and a USB port (for storing anything else). A Bluetooth speaker for car can also double up as an MP3 player or USB drive. Some also have a FM transmitter built in.

Many Bluetooth speakers for cars are battery operated, while others depend on a power source (typically the car’s cigarette lighter). The latter is not a highly recommended option since you will essentially be tethering your steering wheel with a wire, which, despite whatever precautions you may take, is definitely a safety hazard.

If you are the busy professional who can’t afford to miss out on calls when on the road, investing in a Bluetooth speaker for car should be a priority. It significantly reduces the risk of accidents and makes for a far smoother and seamless experience. No more fiddling around with headsets and cellphones; simply speak directly into the steering wheel to answer calls. Plus, your speakers can double up as a USB drive, a MP3 player, and a FM transmitter as well. If that isn’t high-tech, then I don’t know what is.

Motorola’s T505 ROKR Bluetooth in-car speaker comes highly recommended. It has everything you would want in a Bluetooth speaker for car. It fits right on to your steering wheel and lets you make and receive calls directly. It announces the name of the caller, features a full-fledged FM transmitter that announces the name of the station, is rechargeable (can be charged in the car itself), and also includes a MP3 player. Another device to consider is the Jabra S500, which is a cheaper alternative to the Motorola T505.

Can’t figure out which speaker to buy for your living room? Do you keep struggling to understand the difference between wireless and Best Bluetooth speakers? Get all the answers, without any of the BS at my site given below:

Case 39 Is Why I Am Not a Workaholic

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

Most of the time misbehaving children just piss me off, in Case 39, it creeped me out. There is something to be said for the acting job done by Jodelle Ferland playing the evil little Lilith Sullivan where instead of wanting to spank her you want to throw holy water at her and see what happens.

Case 39 starts off at a steady and purposeful pace, telling the story of Emily Jenkins played by Renee Zellweger. Emily is an over worked social worker with child protective services. She is currently juggling 38 cases and already overwhelmed when her boss, Wayne played by Adrian Lester, drops another one on her lap (do the math and win a prize… also win the movie title). Being the diligent worker she is Emily follows up on the case and finds a sweet little girl (the above mentioned demon spawn Lilith) and her parents Edward and Margaret (Kerry O’Malley and Callum Keith Rennie).

It is obvious right from the start the parents are off, way off the reservation, and Emily picks up on this immediately. She brings them in for questioning and watches them closely looking for anything she can to get Lilith away from them. She even brings her police buddy Mike Barron (the great Ian McShane) in on the case and it’s a good thing she does for when the parent’s Sullivan attempt to gruesomely murder Lilith, Emily and Mike are there to save her. This will be hence forth known as mistake number one.

With the parents Sullivan in jail, Emily takes the odd stance of trying to foster parent Lilith. As it turns out this is exactly what Lilith wanted as she has been manipulating the whole situation to this exact outcome. See, this is what evil children do, they manipulate but they do it with a smile on their face and a lollipop in their mouth. You look at this little girl and you just see sweet and innocent, but when they start to turn her and show her true colors you can’t help but shiver. There is one scene in particular where Doug (played by Bradley Cooper) child psychiatrist extraordinaire and love interest of Emily is working with Lilith and she drops the good girl force shield and opens up on him with all guns blazing. When she is done his is left overwhelmed, frightened and shaking. He says later that in all of his years working with troubled children he has never felt so threatened and given the look on his face I believe him. Of course he dies later, which isn’t really a shock, or at least shouldn’t be, but it’s the way he dies that you need to pay attention to.

In the end Case 39 is not a great horror movie, it may start off that way but it has trouble holding on. It averages out to be a good horror movie, but even in that has some failings. A good horror movie is like making love to a beautiful woman (actually its nothing like that but follow me here for a second) if you don’t take your time building it up then the climax isn’t really going to be that great. Case 39 rushes to tell you what’s going on. They are far too proud of the plot they developed and the creepy things they want this little girl to do. Thus they rush you along because they think the ending is going to be so great that you want it to get here in a hurry. In fact we do want the ending to get here in a hurry but not for the same reasons the writers do. We have one half of a great movie, well-acted with a high creep factor, but after that things degrade into poor writing and has a less than stellar ending. In the horror movie genre it is still worth watching and still good I just felt they made a mistake with how they ended it and what they decided to show.

Thanks for reading

Car Speakers for Sale – How to Get Great Deals on Car Speakers

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

With the internet, finding quality car speakers for sale has never been easier, especially if you are in the market for used speakers. While buying in-store still remains the most popular choice among most consumers, the market for car speakers online has exploded in the recent past.

Part of the recent for this phenomenon is the trend of shoppers walking into stores, listening to the actual speaker performance, and then heading home to buy the same car speakers from their favorite website. With more and more websites offering low or free shipping, the cost of buying online has come down significantly. For the smart shopper, finding car speakers for sale online is the better way to go.

If you are in the market for used speakers, you have even more avenues at your disposal. Classified sites and auction websites like eBay ensure that you can get your hands on a set of great used car speakers for sale at a fraction of the cost of a new set of speakers.

But, of course, you don’t necessarily need to head online. A lot of consumers are still hesitant about sharing their credit card details online – a justifiable fear considering the growing cases of identity theft and credit card abuse. For such people, there are several options, from local classifieds to used car stores.

Let’s take a look at some of the options available to you if you want to find car speakers for sale:

1. Local Audio or Electronics Store
This would be the first and obvious choice to get started on finding quality speakers for sale. I always recommend visiting a store that specializes in car audio rather than a generic electronics store. The former would invariably have more variety and lower prices.

My preferred shopping method is to visit a store, check out the various speakers, ask for demos, make notes about the prices, availability, performance, etc. Then, I head online to a site like Amazon and compare the prices, shipping costs (if any), and reviews. If I can get a lower price online (which I usually do), then I prefer to purchase online itself.

2. Local Classified Ads/Websites
If you are in the market for used car speakers, nothing works better than the local newspaper’s classifieds section, or a classifieds website like Craigslist. The newspaper would have at least one section where you will find people offering their used electronics for sale. If you have good bargaining skills, you can typically get quality speakers for very cheap.

The same goes for classifieds sites like Craigslist. If you don’t know already, Craigslist is the largest classifieds site online where anyone can place an ad for free advertising his/her wares. In larger cities, you can easily find someone putting up his car speakers for sale. With some luck and plenty of bargaining, you will be able to land quite a good deal.

3. Auction Sites
Auction sites like eBay have been around for years now. eBay allows anyone to sell stuff online. More often than not, you will be able to find some really high quality wares for very low prices on such websites. Quality can range from brand new to battered, two decade old monstrosities.

Besides these, there are always options like hitting Google to find deals, or using websites like Amazon. If you do plan to buy car speakers online, I recommend that you get yourself a PayPal account. This would not only make the entire buying process easier, but also protect your credit card details.
Finding car speakers for sale is quite easy if you know the right places to look into.

Can’t decide which car speakers to buy? Check out my website on wireless speakers and car/bluetooth/marine speakers for dozens of helpful articles and reviews!

Film Review: The Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes (2011)

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

To watch your own father die would be a bad week in anyone’s book but imagine discovering you were the catalyst for the end of human civilization the following week. That’s a nightmare of a fortnight you have on your hands. James Franco is that unlucky man, although seeing out your last days with Freida Pinto would definitely makes things a little better. Part Five of The Apes franchise arrives, breathing in some new life and places itself at the head of the summer blockbusters so far, giving you everything you would expect but perhaps not how you expected it.

It’s safe to say this is a prequel to the 1968 original and Rupert Wyatt pieces together a back story that compels you to emphasise with the central character, Caesar. So how exactly do the apes gain the momentum to take over the world? Will (James Franco) is a scientist, testing his cure for Alzheimer’s on laboratory chimps, believing he is on the cusp of the breakthrough to produce and manufacture to the public. ALZ-112 genetically repairs damaged brain cells, whilst developing new ones and upon seeking board approval for the project, Will’s test chimp is killed after going wild. They discover that the monkey was not being aggressive but protective of her new born baby – and so Franco is introduced to Caesar.
He takes him home and this becomes a permanent arrangement once he realises that Caesar has genetically inherited his mothers intelligence.

Will also tests the drug on his father Charles (John Lithgow), who is in the latter stages of Alzheimer’s, and soon sees amazing results. Caesar continues to grow into a strong ‘teenager’ and as domesticated as he is, his true animal nature forces him away from his family home into the care of the state animal sanctuary, living with other chimps in battery cages. Caesar’s mistreatment there and isolation from home brings him closer to his own kind and further from his upbringing. Strangely, there does seem to be an awful lot of chimps kept by humans in the California county, so come the future, Chihuahuas beware.

This covers two thirds of the film, where the development of Caesar places him at the heart of the story and of the audience. Pinto is strategically dotted across the film without offering anything of substance whilst Franco seems a little underwhelmed by the series of tragic events, so the human element of the film pales away. Andy Serkis has deservedly received lavish praise for his stop motion CGI performance as Caesar, the close up shots really bring the human out of the animal so the brooding intensity shines through. In turn it means that the CGI engages you more than the actors which is a shame, as giving them more complexity would have elevated the film’s impact.

The expectation for this was no doubt two plus hours of monkey mayhem, rampaging through the streets fighting humans, yet Wyatt uses the last third intelligently so the actions scenes are exciting whilst leaving more for your imagination. It’s a sub two hour summer film, which highlights just how much more can be achieved when the unnecessary trimmings are scrapped and you may well be surprised come the credits, who are your allegiances are with.

Running Wires To Your Car Amps

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

Before you begin running the wires for your car amps you will want to make sure that you have all the necessary tools and wiring and equipment for the installation of your car amps. Then you will want to make a plan for how you plan to route your wires making a note of any components or parts that might get in the way. The first wire I like to run is the power wire. This is usually the most difficult since you are usually running the wire from under the hood through the firewall and inside to the car amps. Some cars such s BMW’s and Mercedes Benz have the battery’s in the trunk, usually making for a fast install of the power wire if you are installing your car amps in the trunk. Always make sure to disconnect the battery before starting any installation!

You will want to make sure you run the power wire on one side of the car and on the other side of the car run the patch cables or RCA cables. This will help prevent any engine noise from entering the system. Most RCA cables are shielded and prevent engine noise from entering into the system, but it is still a good idea if possible to run them on the opposite side. Now I usually will run the power wire on the side of the car the battery is on if possible as this will help me use the least amount of power wire to the car amps.

Now you will want to run the power wire from the battery through the fire wall making sure you keep the wire away from any moving parts or components. When running the wire through the firewall I first look for a pre drilled hole that simply does not have any wires going through it. If none of these are present you will need to drill a hole. Make sure you know exactly what is on the other side before drilling. It is a good idea to use zip ties when running the wire through the engine compartment to make sure the wire stays secure. Wait until after you have everything hooked up and your car amps tested and working before you do this though.

You want to make sure that when running power wire through the firewall (from the engine compartment to the inside of the car) that you properly seal the hole you went through. This can usually be done with a rubber or plastic grommet. Failing to do this can create more noise on the inside of your vehicle and possibly let water into the inside of your car.

You will want to run all the wires to your car amps underneath the panels and carpet for safety and it will also give your system a pro installed look, so after the wire is in the car you will want to remove the kick panels and entry plates or scuff guards and run the wire under the carpet and to the place where the car amps are to be installed. A panel remover will come in handy when removing some of the interior panels and will help not to damage any parts. Use plastic instruments when prying off plastic panels as a metal screw driver will bend and chew up the panels being removed.

Remember when installing your car amps never force a panel off, never just pull on a panel unless you know what is holding it on as replacement parts can be very expensive, and you don’t want to install your new stereo just to not have a glove box anymore because it broke. When in doubt do some research on the internet for your specific car.

How to Choose a Twin-Screen Portable DVD Player

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

The portable DVD players have been on the market for quite some years and are already being included as a standard feature in many vehicles. They are excellent for keeping kids or adult passenger entertained since they allow them to play back various types of multimedia files such as music, movies, and pictures. Most of them also come with universal mounting systems, which allow them to be used in almost every model car, no matter how big or small; in most cases, they are attached to the front seats’ headrests with either straps or special brackets, and are very easy to mount and remove. Since there is a wide variety of make and models out there, choosing one requires careful consideration.

Before purchasing an in-car DVD players, take into account:

The supported multimedia files. While all potable DVD players will obviously support the DVD file format, some of the latest are capable of playing back DivX and other extensions, which are quite popular today. If you plan to listen to music, then selecting a model that plays MP3 files comes highly recommended.The screen size – naturally, larger screen is preferable as it would deliver better viewing experience, but larger screen also means bulkier unit, so you need to consider that as well.Power options – while some portable DVD players could be powered by batteries, others cannot, which makes them usable only inside the car or in the house, if they come with AC adapters. If the player comes with batteries, find out what the battery life is, especially if you have no other option to power it.Audio and picture quality – the latest in-car DVD players offer outstanding picture quality, but at times, the audio is not clear or loud enough. If at all possible, test the sound quality before purchasing the unit or get online and read a number of user reviews in order to learn more.Wiring – you do not want to deal with messy wiring since this could present hazards, especially if you have kids, and also makes setting up and removing the player more difficult.The accessories that come with the portable DVD player are also important. Remote control is vital if your kids cannot operate the unit on their own and so are the various chargers and cables, which would extend the player’s functionality. Good cases would also help protect the screens, and help you carry the player easily.

Starsky and Hutch Film Review

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

Starsky & Hutch is a 2004 comedy film distributed by Warner Bros. and Dimension Films. Its stars include Ben Stiller as David Starsky, Owen Wilson as Ken Hutchinson, Snoop Dogg as Huggy Bear, Fred Williamson as Captain Doby, and Vince Vaughn as Reese Feldman. This movie is produced by William Blinn (TV’s Starsky & Hutch), Stuart Cornfeld (Zoolander), Akiva Goldsman (Mr. & Mrs. Smith), Tony Ludwig (The Family Man), and Alan Riche (Bride Wars). The director is Todd Phillips (Old School).

As the title would indicate, the story is about two cops. One, Ken Hutchinson, a cop who’s willing to bend the rules in order to get his man, and the other, David Starsky, a by-the-book cop who doesn’t believe that any crime is minor. They are partnered together to solve the murder of a man who washed up on shore of fictional Bay City. Reese Feldman is the culprit but, obviously, the two cops don’t know it yet. Feldman is a cocaine dealer who has developed a new form of coke that is untraceable and undetectable. Starsky and Hutch find a card on the dead man with the dealer’s name on it and go to question him. He denies having any knowledge but his woman informs the detectives that the dead man, Terrance Myers, used to date a cheerleader from the “Bay City Kitties”. They go to talk to the girlfriend and she gives them an old coat of Myers’s with some dragons drawn on it.

They take the coat to Huggy Bear where he tells them that the design was made by Big Earl. The two cops go to investigate Big Earl’s biker bar and discover that he is already in police custody for an unrelated crime. They pay him a visit and he gives them the new cocaine, which looks like artificial sweetener. The police analyze it and find nothing. The next day, a hitman hired by Feldman attempts to shoot the two detectives. They track him down and learn that the man who hired him owned a yacht, which the pair discovered Feldman had earlier. Starsky and Hutch disguise themselves as mimes and enter the dealer’s daughter’s bar mitzvah. Starsky overhears a phone conversation talking about a package that he assumes to be the cocaine. They bust Feldman only to find out that “the package” was actually a pony that he was going to give his daughter as a gift. The two detectives are suspended but not before Hutch learns that Starsky had requested two weeks ago to be transferred because his partner was dealing with “nefarious characters”. The two split up because of Starsky’s deception. A major drug deal involving Reese Feldman and the new cocaine is to go down in a couple of days and the two lead cops of the investigation are under suspension.

One aspect of this film that was interesting is how well Starsky and Hutch seem to get along despite being total opposites. It is ironic that Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson, best friends in real life, were cast in these roles. Starsky is the hard-working cop who believes that all crimes should be pursued by the police no matter how minor they may be. Hutch is a little more easy-going. He is willing to bend or even break laws in order to get who he’s looking for. After the two are partnered together, they start to compromise their ways. Starsky loosens up a little bit and is more open to finding information from anyone, even characters like Huggy Bear. Hutch learns that following rules can work, too. We see this when the pair decide to send Huggy Bear undercover. When “the Bear” says that Hutch will owe him more than one favor for this, he tells him that he may have to remember some of the illegal things that Huggy Bear has done and tell Starsky about them.

Another intriguing feature of Starsky & Hutch was having the original Starsky and Hutch, Paul Michael Glaser and David Soul respectively, make cameo appearances. They appear just after Starsky’s car sinks to the bottom of the sea. The old duo give the new duo an identical car. The keys being handed down to the new Starsky from the old Starsky may represent a changing of the guard. Put simply, the old generation is passing on the tradition to the new generation.

To wrap, Starsky & Hutch is a very funny movie with some action on the side.

J Edgar Review

January 9th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

I’m surprised that a movie about J. Edgar Hoover hasn’t been done until now. He’s a significant figure in American history and was involved with many of the largest historical figures of that time. This biopic wants to tell a story of a man’s personal and professional life that impacted America in multiple ways. J. Edgar takes a look at the life of the long time leader of the FBI.

This movie is boring. It’s dry, bland and it moves too slowly at times. It never allows you to get emotionally involved in the film or the people being portrayed in it. I found it similar to a film that I liked called The Good Shepherd. J. Edgar is about the birth of the FBI and the man behind it, while The Good Shepherd is about the birth of the CIA and uses a fictional character based on the actual creator. They both lacked emotion, but J. Edgar had less of it and a lot less artistry as well.

If I’m going to point out anymore negatives about this movie, I’d have to talk about the fact that they didn’t go as hard as I thought they would on the topics that actually mattered. Instead, they constantly focused on his alleged homosexuality. I can’t say if he was gay or not, but there probably aren’t too many people who could. They put it in the film as being a fact and I don’t think it should have been done like that. Suggesting that he might have been gay without ever answering the question would’ve been the most sensible thing to do.

From what we do know, Hoover did several controversial things. Much of this stuff was illegal and using these aspects of his professional life as the backbone of J. Edgar instead of paying attention to things that might not have happened could have added what was missing. Him willfully ignoring the rise of organized crime for so long should have gotten more attention. The fact that he sought to destroy the Black Panthers and many of their famous white supporters should have been included also. They would have had a difficult time doing that without acknowledging an actor named Clint Eastwood and his alleged affair with actress and Black Panther supporter Jean Seberg. This information (among other alleged affairs) was leaked to the media by the FBI to ruin her public image when they learned of her private support for the Panthers, but the director decided not to include this in the movie for some odd reason.

On the positive side, the acting wasn’t terrible. One of the best performances was from Naomi Watts. I’ve never seen her as much of an actress, but she did a good job. The actors did well when portraying the characters as both younger and older versions of themselves and I can’t say that they were ever really a problem.

Another positive would be the make-up. They did a good job of making the actors look like senior citizens in the scenes where they were portraying the older versions of their characters. DiCaprio’s Hoover looked fairly close to the images that I’ve seen of the man himself. The make-up worked well for everyone except Armie Hammer. It looked like they took a wad of clay and just threw it on the dude’s face. I don’t know how they thought that was acceptable or even passable.

One of the things that can be learned from paying attention to our history is that these people were only human. Some of us look at people in the spotlight as somehow being different, but some of them go around doing things that are viewed as immoral, illegal or just wrong and do their best to hide it. That’s what this film points out to an extent, but it took too much of a safe approach. I love political movies that contain a good amount of drama and that didn’t happen here. I wanted this to be good and was kind of surprised that it wasn’t. J. Edgar is a film that is just there and offers very little quality, personality or style. Because this movie ignores so many of J. Edgar Hoover’s most egregious violations, it never allows itself to be the epic that it could have been.

Paranormal Activity 3 Review

January 8th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

When Paranormal Activity was released, I had no real interest in seeing it. I thought it would be just another one of those “found footage” movies that was attempting to be like The Blair Witch Project. I ended up watching it and I found it to be boring and uneventful. The acting wasn’t very good and the movie just wasn’t scary. Now that I have this blog I basically had to review the new Paranormal Activity 3 movie that’s being released although I didn’t want to. Many people believe that the films that come after their originals aren’t as good. That way of thinking appears to be true in most cases, but I was hoping that Paranormal Activity 3 would be one of the few exceptions to that rule.

Paranormal Activity 3 is a prequel to the original film. It features Kate and Kristi as children back in September of 1988. Its goal is to give a back story to the first two films and help us understand how all of this came to be in that family.

In my review of Apollo 18, I remember saying that the movie was okay but they needed to stop with these “found footage” horror films. After seeing Paranormal Activity 3 I will gladly take that back. This movie was straight up spooky and creepy. They did everything in this film that they tried (and failed) to do in the original version. The way they set up the scenes and scares in this film worked almost every time. You could feel it coming, but you didn’t know what it was and you didn’t know when it was going to happen. That kind of suspense built up the actual events even more and it went on for the whole film with almost no down time. It’s even done like this at the end of Paranormal Activity 3 and what happens will catch you completely off guard.

These actors were probably the best in the series so far. They were believable in their roles and you either felt everything they felt or you saw what they felt or experienced. They showed you the perspective of pretty much every relevant character and I think that added to the overall development of the film. As many scares as they tried to put in this movie, the characters made it even more realistic. When I think about it, even the comedic spots they were involved in fit perfectly and felt natural.

Paranormal Activity 3 is definitely one of the best scary movies that I’ve ever seen before in my entire life. They didn’t use any gore and you couldn’t really see the ghostly entity that was wreaking havoc. This movie used tension, fear and the unknown as its most important weapons. They used all of those along with a good cast to marvelously tell the story. I thought these “found footage” movies had run their course and I was certain that my review of this movie would be a bad one. I went into this movie with a negative attitude and came out of it with a huge smile on my face. I don’t scare easily, but Paranormal Activity 3 almost got me at least a few times…………….almost.

Movie Review: 11-11-11

January 8th, 2012 DVD Portable No comments

Darren Lynn Bouman the director of the Saw II, III and IV is back with a new horror movie 11-11-11. The movie will release worldwide on November 11th, 2011, the date suggested in the title. According to the directors comment “With Saw and Repo, my career has been about finding new ways to freak people out; that’s what I want to do with this.”

Judging by his previous works, we have no doubt he will make us shudder with fright. The film is shot in Barcelona, Spain and in New York. Timothy Gibbs, Michael Landes, Brendan Price and Wendy Glenn play the lead roles in the film. They are accompanied by Montse Alcoverro, Salome Jimenez, Angela Rosal and Benjamin Cook. The movie is produced as a joint venture by Capacity pictures, Canningo Films and Epic pictures. The trailer of the movie had won positive comments from both the critics and the fans.

Synopsis of 11-11-11
A famous American author named Joseph Crone is devastated after the death of his only child and his beloved wife. Timothy Gibbs plays the role of Joseph Crone. Joseph’s brother and ailing father live in Barcelona, Spain. He decides to visit them for a change. But, nothing goes by his plan and he experiences some strange encounters with ghostly figures. He is haunted by the appearance of number 11 everywhere.

Joseph explains his situation to his brother, who cease to believe him at first, but later threatens him that he is been possessed by evil spirits. Obsessed with number 11, Joseph sets out on a mission to find out the truth behind this horror, with the help of his companion Sadie. They discover 11-11-11 is a warning about the entrance of a deadly spirit into our world on the doomed date. The number 11 refers to the eleven gates of heaven. The eleventh gate will open for 49 minutes on 11/11/11 unleashing hell on earth. Joseph tries to prevent the catastrophe which is beyond his power. Watch whether the world was saved on the big screen.

The Truth about 11:11
Just like 2012 rumor, numerous conspiracy theories surround the 11:11 date as well. Historians point out so many important events which have taken place on the 11th. There is an 11:11movement which alerts people about the horror date. The members of the movement claim they are contacted by angels and spirits who warn them about the sign. An author called Uri Geller has written a book on the concept. Some numerologists and astrologists even claim the day to be very auspicious in opposition to these threats. There will be no end to such comments and rumors until November 11, 2011, passes without any catastrophe.
