Twitch has learned that Harrison Ford has entered into early talks to join the new Blade Runner. While this is still very early stages and it is quite possible that things won’t work out the obvious implication is that what we are looking at is not a reboot but a direct sequel to the original.
Allt jag har hört tidigare pekar på att det faktiskt blir en ny Blade Runner-film av något slag. Hur är det är med Ford kan man ju bara gissa och sådana här rykten är ju filmbranschens motsvarighet till silly season, men Twitch brukar så vitt jag vet vara hyfsat välunderrättade.
the fantastical realism which comprise the three floating and wall mounted sculptural works are assembled in a manner which pays homage to the precision of baroque masters, evoking a timelessness witnessed in each perfectly preserved reality. the detail observed in his assemblages appreciate the dark and grotesque, each work examining the rise or fall of a civilization or figure and is composed with no true formula.
Cage also mentioned how he turned down roles in not one but two major franchises over the past decade. ”There were two movies that asked me to go to Australia or New Zealand for long periods of time. One was Lord Of The Rings and one was the Matrix. But I was actively involved at that time raising my family and I couldn’t really take that time out.”
If there’s one thing that encapsulates what’s wrong with the way government functions today, ACTA is it. You wouldn’t know it from the name, but the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement is a plurilateral agreement designed to broaden and extend existing intellectual property (IP) enforcement laws to the Internet.
You may have heard that Kim Novak, costar of Vertigo, took out an ad in Variety protesting the use of Bernard Herrmann’s Vertigo score in Michel Hazanavicius’s modern silent film The Artist. ”I WANT TO REPORT A RAPE,” the headline blared. ”I FEEL AS IF MY BODY—OR, AT LEAST MY BODY OF WORK—HAS BEEN VIOLATED BY THE MOVIE, “THE ARTIST,” Novak wrote, and went on to decry the “USE AND ABUSE [OF] FAMOUS PIECES OF WORK TO GAIN ATTENTION AND APPLAUSE FOR OTHER THAN WHAT THEY WERE INTENDED.” Novak’s word choice was unfortunate — more than one person, including yours truly, said that was akin to somebody sitting through the Star Wars prequels and witlessly declaring, ”George Lucas raped my childhood.”
Efter Kim Novaks utbrott mot The Artist uppstod snabbt fenomenet Vertigoed, vars tes ungefär är att alla filmscener blir bättre om man lägger på Bernard Herrmanns klassiska score från Vertigo. Alla tävlingsbidrag hos Press Play pekar på att den tesen i alla fall inte är helt uppåt väggarna. Se själv på detta från Zoolander.
Inapt typography is not uncommon in movies. But big-budget studio films employ scores of people specifically to worry about the details that ensure the on-screen experience will be seamless. Therefore, it’s incongruous to put all that care (and money!) into the frame and then overlay it with an inapt font, which in its own small way, breaks the illusion. It’s not Mission: Impossible — IKEA Protocol, is it.
When we first launched SOPA Opera, few members in Congress – besides the bills’ co-sponsors and its initial opponents – had made their opinion known on the proposed laws to regulate the Internet. That changed on Wednesday. Responses from constituents and Congressional staffers kept us busy updating the site past midnight.
The Mars Images app fetches images from the NASA Opportunity rover’s latest downlink as soon as they’re available. On Mars since 2004, Opportunity has far exceeded its planned mission life and is still making groundbreaking discoveries, such as the recent unambiguous evidence that water once flowed on Mars.
