I watched that movie and some of the facts were off. It also didn't make sense how a drug made that work. In real life, to access more than 10%, you have to at least look for the knowledge of that.

Do certain specific things to make it work. Of course in life, we are still looking for answers to that. The ending especially was weird.

I wasn't referring to that movie. I actually read it in an article.

I should probably start reading threads before I post in them.

If you read my thread at the beginning, I was not making any reference towards a movie or 10% brain use. It was just what influences you to believe or disbelieve in magic and some other questions.

In reality, we can only quote magic as unexplained science.

Anything proven to be real is science and therefore not magic.

aliens isn't real?

They probably are, I just don't believe we've ever made contact with them.

our life is very real?

I'm living it.

there is nothing beyond where we are right now?

I know enough about space not to believe it.

One video I watched which were things I'd usually think of, but not say, it really opened my mind. It said that we should not rely on others and believe fully on what they say. We need to believe more in ourselves.

From what I've heard, the writers of the film were actually aware that this was just an urban legend. They just wanted to make a movie. There's movies where unicorns are real, it doesn't mean anything.

The ten percent brain myth has been debunked by Wikipedia, Snopes, Mythbusters, and TVTropes. It AIN'T TRUE.

Well we aren't geniuses and we can't truly know everything. One thing I do know 100% is that the movie Lucy was way off. The research was also bad.

I can tell you why, because he doesn't believe in himself. He only believes in what others say. I know there is more though and experienced more.

The 10% of the brain myth has been around for quite some time, son.

True.

but it's crucial to provide backing..

Exactly.

i mean, yeah, i know there's more but.. we cant prove that point unless we work on their grounds..

I proved it to myself. I broke through their grounds. I'm on new grounds now (which goes well with the site name as well).

There is also a lot I'm not saying because I want people to have an opinion. You don't have to be concerned about it though.
