I hesitated to create an individual page covering Martin Armstrong's propaganda movie for far too long, simply because the funding of that movie was too mysterious to me, while the nonsense in the story line was too obvious and because it had already been criticized by others in prominent places. That disgusting movie got bad reviews and was generally unsuccessful, only shown in a handful of obscure places.
No article about disinformation produced by Martin Armstrong would be complete without mentioning the movie THE FORECASTER (archive link - original web site deleted). It was produced on his initiative (although he claimed it was not) with the aim to clear his name to distract from his past criminal conviction.
At the very minimum this seems to be the conclusion of A Los Angeles Times critic who described the film as intended primarily as a name-clearing platform for Armstrong to relate his version of the events and that it lacked perspective due to its failure to present commentary from authorities (please refer to Martin Armstrong's Wikipedia article.
This piece of disinformation has had a large impact on the decision making process of people who got sucked into his scam. For example, please refer to:
Fraudulent Blog Post Revisions
I got sucked in by the Forecaster movie - that’s a compelling story.
The truth is that Martin Armstrong committed a crime - he defrauded investors. He used money effectively stolen from investors to trade using his Socrates software. This generated spectacular losses of US $700 million. He then tried to hide these losses by creating a US $3 billion Ponzi scheme. This earned him the 11 year prison time. Before going to prison, he stashed away US $15 million of that stolen money and failed to return it. It is as simple as that.
Furthermore, new incontrovertible (self-incriminating) evidence has surfaced that Martin Armstrong is guilty of some of his committed crimes (Contempt of Court, Hiding assets) which he still denies:
A related piece of disinformation is the Aug 19 2015 claim that this film was banned in the United States. It never was - the message is in response to the fact that its reviews are devastating which it aims to conceal and to make the file more interesting.
In fact the reviews of that movie were so devastating that Armstrong created another lie to make it more exciting: It's an old sales trick - rarity. He created the conspiracy theory that the movie is banned: The Forecaster (2014). This documentary is BANNED in the US.
Armstrong is selling the movie like here on Vimeo and here on one of his shopping sites but it is also downloadable free of charge in full length
The Forecaster on Rumble
and
and
The Forecaster on odysee, prominently uploaded by Martin Armstrong himself.
Here is an archive of the original marketing page:
On 29 June 2023 I finally decided to create this page, based on my preference to let Armstrong shoot himself in the foot. I can't possibly miss this opportunity to let him expose himself once again.
This is work in progress and a suitable structure of this page has yet to be established. At this point, it looks back to front. It's caused by the fact that the movie is a collection of many fairy tales that he repeated many times on his blog pages and in his hundreds of video chats, stories that I already covered here.
Martin Armstrong claims the Opposite of what the Movie is
In his announcement on his blog The Movie Debut – Amsterdam November 22nd at Largest Film Festival he writes on Nov 7, 2014 (quote):
... I agreed to do this film on one condition – it would not be a “poor me” film, but one that addressed the real issues of the world economy that we face. I believe the film accomplishes that from what I have seen in the first draft versions. ...
... We are not part of the film in any financial way. We receive no revenue and contributed none. It is an independent film. ...
Knowing that Martin Armstrong is a pure sales man and professional trickster, think the opposite otherwise you are a fool.
Without going into much detail, as you have probably noted, that movie is NOT a documentary as claimed. It IS a “poor me” film and does NOT address economic issues because as the title says, it is about (the plight of) that heroic forecaster Martin Armstrong who plays the victim card.
And as shown below, Martin Armstrong makes it easy enough for everyone to see what he really thinks.
Martin Armstrong exposes Marcus Vetter's Infomercial Laundering Scheme
But I know Armstrong personally, and he has shown this behavior before, this behavior that some criminals seem to have. They virtually return to the crime scene and cannot resist bragging about their devious tactics, finally trapping themselves.
... All that sounds very nice uh Schwab's great reset is 2032. He's been taking stuff from us for years all right when they did the movie on me "The Forecaster" uh they they got it was funded by a German TV he called that guy and said he wanted him and he paid him to do a movie on him called "The Forum" ...
