YouTube channel UAP put out an interesting analysis of this movie.

I guess it is being suggested that the movie was made using the video footage created by the Civilization of the Builders, Society “X”, Tartary type culture...

• Meaning by those who created all the beautiful structures.

Then, certain “proof” was created to make it look like it was actually filmed by us, the engineers of “the ugly architecture”.

​

The official Wiki-type narrative goes like this:

• Metropolis is a 1927 German expressionist science-fiction drama film directed by Fritz Lang. Written by Thea von Harbou in collaboration with Lang, the film was produced by the Babelsberg Studios for Universum Film A.G.(Ufa). The silent film is regarded as a pioneering science-fiction movie, being among the first feature-length movies of that genre. Filming took place over 17 months in 1925–26 at a cost of more than five million Reichsmarks.

And of course, they started shooting it in 1925. What a “vision”.

What do you think? Any opinions?

The movie definitely has an other-worldly feel to it. The people look.... not-quite-right. The ideas and technology look way before their time.

The Germans were leaps and bounds ahead in technology. They had video phones in the 30's, Skype, Nazi Style, but it wasn't until the 50's that Ma Bell taught Americans how to use a rotary phone.

​

Seems that the German people, their architecture, and their technology was stolen and destroyed.... the whole purpose of the world wars.

It is possible that this one is not about the revealing of past tech but more about the fear of revealing to much, to soon about a long term agenda. Metrópolis just another possibility to throw out there . so much deception out there I am open to all ideas at this point. perhaps our past lost civilization worked with nature and the people whom have gained controle favor artificial. .

Is 150 years enough to erase the Germans' memory of their superior tech?

Two days prior to the enactment of the German constitution on 23 May 1949, a Secret Treaty (Geheimer Staatsvertrag) was signed, which gave complete Allied control over electronic and print media, film, culture and education until the year 2099.
As a result thereof, there are still 100,000 occupation troops in Germany; after 66 years there still has been no peace treaty concluded between Germany and the Victorious Allied Powers; and all of Germany’s gold reserves are held in the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank of New York, in which the Rothschilds have a 57% shareholding.

In most of his photos, it seems, he is either using a monocle on his left eye or a patch on his right eye. Sending the signal of a secret, magic-based cult?

Seems like a cultural propagandist, similar to HG Wells and The Fabian Society

Not sure I agree with UAP.
There are production stills in existence.



Maybe the film was too occult honest.

Or too occult creepy for the general public. And had to be censored and put away.

It does seem pretty clear there were plenty of things in Germany in 1927 that they failed to destroy the fist time.
Simply because the commoners refused to fight any longer in 1918.

Have you looked into Germania, Albert Speer, and Adolf Hitlers architectural plans for a New Berlin? Architecturally it seems amazing, although if you read about it, it is often described as ugly. It would have been concrete which I can accept is ugly, although I believe Rome was built with concrete also? Its an interesting watch into (at least the ideas) that the German nation had at the time. I also read somewhere - although of a dubious unsourced nature - that the third reich planned a giant solar park on the Sahara.

That is an excellent point.
milhaus pointed out George Orwell was also a likely Fabian.

I see inspiration for 1984 in this movie. Or at least a similar dismal future for humanity.
I question if these films were warnings, or the required publication of their true plans and intentions.
