Knowing, the movie - there is a pattern to predicting the future

I've recently seen a brand new movie with Nicolas Cage, Knowing.
The plot: In 1959, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule. But one mysterious girl fills her sheet of paper with rows of apparently random numbers instead. Fifty years later, a new generation of students examines the capsules contents and the girls cryptic message ends up in the hands of young Caleb Myles. But it is Calebs father, professor Ted Myles (Nicolas Cage), who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. As Ted further unravels the documents chilling secrets, he realizes the document foretells three additional events the last of which hints at destruction on a global scale and seems to somehow involve Ted and his son (If you want to know more, full synopsis can be found here... I don't like reveling the end of this film :)).

I quite liked the film. I think it may belong to the catastrophical movie series, and I could find some relations or some links to many other movies like "The day the earth stood still", "Deep Impact" and so on.

What I also noticed is that it may be even considered a film about data mining and forecasting! As matter of fact, Ted Myles analyses a very long sequence of numbers and find relevant patterns in it. That's exectly the aim of data mining. And being compiled in 1959 the list also represents forecasting for both the already happened disasters and for the not already happened ones.

Furthermore I realized that the choice of names is intentionally done: one of two only adult Israelites allowed to survive forty years wandering in the desert and enter Canaan is Caleb, as a reward for his faith in God. This is recorded in the Book of Numbers. Caleb is called "my servant" by God in Numbers 14:24, a position of the highest honor heretofore used only for Moses. Similarly, Abby, whose meaning is "father rejoiced, or father's joy" or "gives joy", reminds the intelligent, beautiful Abigail, who was Old Testament King David's third wife, described as "good in discretion and beautiful in form".
Other symbolic reference are likely hidden in the film, but I'm still working on that ;)

If you are interested in the trailer (where appears the sentence "there is a pattern to predicting the future"): http://knowing-themovie.com/
