Ok...this just gets weirder and weirder...
Check this out...Knowing was released on 3/20/09 right...the oil rig explosion happened on 4/20/10...if we take the difference between months and years (difference between March and April, 09 and 10), we get 1 and 1...11 people died on the day the rig exploded...
Someone else had this explanation, but I didn't really understand it, I'm not even sure they took the same steps as me:
8-1+4=11 killed
Knowing was released March 20 2009
year=10 month=1 and add that and you've got April 20 2010 with 11 killed
And the other thing is...people are saying the rig exploded at the same time as in the movie as well, or the first news story was at the same time?!? He looked at his clock when the news story about the explosion came on, and it was 12:00 mid-night.

Where the hell does it say that, I didn't hear that?!? Yes, 11 people died.
Wow,that is creepy that the film mentions "11 people missing."
Uh, well I know a little bit about that stuff, but not much really, I know my Avatar has a lot of that sort of symbolism though.
From the look of your avatar I would think you would be "in the know". Masonic numerology and all that jazz.

SPOILER ALERT if you plan on seeing it:
the way the Gulf Oil spill is shown in the movie is odd and comes out of nowhere. he sees it on the news and it doesn't have much else to do with the plot of the movie.... It precedes the end of the world by a couple of days when a solar kill-shot hits the earth. i'm not sure if they were implying that the gulf oil spill in the movie contributed to the "spark" but it was definitely odd, especially in a movie about "knowing' about the end of the world.
PS - it's a good movie, even though nicolas cage overracts a little bit.

Speaking of Nic Cage I never understood why he was paid like an A lister when clearly his talents are that of a C lister. The guy simply isn't very charismatic.
How do they talk to you?
They whisper into our heads.
The subject of randomness vs determinism in our universe.

Determinism says that occurrences in nature are causally decided by preceding events or natural law, that everything leading up to this point in time has happened for a reason.
