The Tao of...

I feel that in the movie The Butterfly Effect strongly shows one of Tao´s ideas:  how by doing a small action you can produce a huge reaction.  That is practically what the butterfly effect is all about.   The butterfly theory states that the flutter of butterfly can produce a typhoon half way across the world.  In the movie the protagonist wants to change peoples lives by changing events they lived.  Each time he changes something it has a drastic change on the persons life. 

In the movie Dodgeball   Taoism is reflected in the way they learned to play the sport.  Instead of going through an intense fitness program or doing special activities, they learned by doing normal activities and developing a muscle memory.   Also they were like the simple team that wasn’t very extravagant and where content with themselves while their opponents could be like the Confucius people, because they were an elite gym, which wouldn’t let people join easily.  Its like the scholars that try to keep the info to themselves.

In the movie Happy Gilmore the main character is a person that represents Taoism very well, and a lot like Winnie the pooh would.  He lives very simply and doesn’t care about getting the best and newest clubs.  He learned the game based completely by muscle memory and experience.  He started winning once he controlled his mind state.
