History:

c. 1280 B.C: Princess Chay-Ara is born in Egypt.

c. 1255 B.C: Chay-Ara, along with her beloved Khufu, the wizard Nabu, and champion Teth-Adam, come across the wreckage of a Thanagarian ship, laden with the mysterious Nth metal. The two use the alien technology to bring peace to their land and build incredible wonders.

C. 1240 B.C: Khufu and Chay-Ara are murdered by the priest Hath-Set, destined to be reincarnated into new bodies.

1917 A.D: Chay-Ara is reincarnated into the body of newborn Shiera Saunders.

1940 A.D.: 

Shiera meets Carter Hall, the reincarnation of Khufu, and her memories of her past lives return. She dons a costume similar to his and becomes Hawkgirl.

Hall and Saunders first encounter Dr. Anton Hastor, the modern reincarnation of Hath-Set.

The pair become founding members of the Justice Society of America, with Hall acting as their first chairman.

1941 A.D: President Franklin Roosevelt calls on Hawkgirl and the rest of the JSA to join the war effort, fighting on the home front as members of the All-Star Squadron.

1947 A.D: Hall and Saunders first encounter Jim Craddock, the Gentleman Ghost.

1951 A.D: As part of a scheme from Per Degaton, the Justice Society is called before the House Un-American Activities Commission, and forced to either reveal their true identities, or disband. Saunders, alongside many of his comrades, chooses to disband the team.

1953 A.D: Hall and Saunders are married, and have a son, Hector. They also discover the kingdom of Feithera, and adopt one of the avian humanoid natives, Norda, as their godson.

1979 A.D: Hall and Saunders are murdered by Hastor, and reincarnate as Thanagarian police officers Katar Hol and Shayera Thal.

18 years ago: Hol and Thal come to Earth, becoming members of the Justice League of America, and fast friends with Ray Palmer, the Atom.

14 years ago: Thal severs ties with Thanagar after the planet declares war on neighboring planet Rann.

10 years ago: Thal dies and Hol is gravely injured while helping to repel the invasion of Earth by an alien alliance that included Thanagarians among their number. Chay-Ara’s spirit enters the body of Kendra Saunders, Shiera’s niece, after Kendra fails to commit suicide.

7 years ago: 

Attempting to avoid the destiny that people say is written out for her, Saunders joins the Justice Society, becoming romantically involved with Sanderson Hawkins.

The reborn Carter joins the new JSA as well, and successfully convinces Kendra to relocate with him to St. Roch, Louisiana. Kendra finishes her film degree at St. Roch University.

6 years ago: Kendra answers Batman’s summons to join the Justice League after the active membership vanishes to ancient Atlantis.  

5 years ago: 

Ray Palmer is murdered by his ex-wife, Jean Loring, under the control of Eclipso. In response, Hall nearly murders Loring in cold blood, only stopped by the intervention of Kendra.

Kendra and Carter are called upon to fight in the war between Rann and Thanagar. While Carter remains on Thanagar, Kendra returns to Earth to put some distance between the two of them.

4 years ago: Kendra moves to Los Angeles, also joining the restructured Justice League and starting a relationship with Roy Harper.

3 years ago: Carter returns to Earth, only to be swept up in the Blackest Night. He and Kendra are seemingly killed by the reanimated Black Lantern corpse of Ray Palmer, but survive thanks to the curse placed on their reincarnation.

1 year ago: Kendra reluctantly accompanies Carter when he invites her to learn the secret of their past lives together.

Present day: Kendra is offered the reins of a major motion picture, and struggles to divide her time between her job and hero work.

Commentary:

And now: Kendra “screw destiny” Saunders. I went into most of the detail on the Hawks in Carter’s post, so here I’ll be focusing on what’s unique to Kendra, her ongoing fight against the pull she feels toward Carter, which is Chay-Ara’s spirit guiding her back toward her “soulmate.”

Due to a wrench thrown into the works of Khufu and Chay-Ara’s reincarnation cycle, Kendra doesn’t have the privilege of having memories of her past lives. Being Kendra Saunders is all she’s ever known, and she doesn’t care what her fate is, she wants to live her life how she chooses, especially if that means dating other men just to spite Carter.

Kendra’s got a troubled past and a fierce independent streak as she toes the line between embracing her destiny and outright rejecting it - despite everything, she still wears a variation on Shiera’s uniform, and still finds herself by Carter’s side more often than she’d really like. Will she fall victim to fate and end up linked to him again? Only time will tell.

Next up: the Atom and Jason Woodrue!

The Brooklyn Museum mourns the loss of Dr. David C. Driskell, whose scholarship, teaching, and curatorial work were instrumental in defining the field of African American art history. His landmark, traveling exhibition Two Centuries of Black American Art, which made its final stop at the Brooklyn Museum in 1977, featured work by more than 200 artists and transformed the ways in which American museums framed and presented histories of African American art. An artist himself, his work was included in the Museum’s recent presentation of Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power.

Reflecting on Two Centuries of Black American Art in 2009, Dr. Driskell recounted how he wanted to bring “patterns of exclusion, segregation, and racism to the attention of the art public. [. . .] But it was also about engaging the establishment in the rules of the canon, so as to say, ‘No, you haven't seen everything; you don't know everything. And here is a part of it that you should be seeing.’”

We are grateful to Dr. Driskell for his immeasurable contributions to the field of art history, and will continue to carry his scholarship and his lessons with us.

***

“When Dr. Driskell spoke at the Brooklyn Museum last year as part of the programming for Soul of a Nation, he told me backstage how he had been on our stage in the 60s with civil rights heroes such as James Baldwin. He was so happy to have returned and could not have been more full of grace. Dr. Driskell has left a profound mark on the Museum’s history. While we mourn his passing, we also celebrate the ways that he shaped a history of African American art and advanced both the field and our institutions with clarity and conviction.”

��� Anne Pasternak, Shelby White and Leon Levy Director

“An artist, educator, art historian, and curator across at least five decades, Dr. Driskell’s impact was not only field defining but field generating. When we talk about the ongoing project that is the writing and presentation of black art history against its erasure and/or dismissal, we must keep close what it meant for scholars like Driskell who began this work with few blueprints, summoning the great courage and clarity necessary to name and advocate for the importance of black art history – in the face of so many cynics and detractors. I live with gratitude for that fortitude. It was my absolute honor to include Dr. Driskell in the Brooklyn presentation of Soul of a Nation, and an even bigger honor to meet him and to welcome him to the museum for an unforgettable conversation with Dr. Elizabeth Alexander in the fall of 2018. I will hold that memory close.”

– Ashley James, Associate Curator, Guggenheim Museum, and former Assistant Curator, Contemporary Art, Brooklyn Museum

“Dr. Driskell's 1977 exhibition Two Centuries of Black American Art intended to, in his words, engage "the establishment in the rules of the canon, so as to say, 'No, you haven't seen everything; you don't know everything. And here is a part of it that you should be seeing.'" Museums are still catching up to this proposition today, and we can all benefit from acknowledging how much there is to learn from each other. And we learned so much from him!

In the New York Times review of that exhibition, critic Hilton Kramer dispraised the show, asking "Is it black art or is it social history?" Dr. Driskell responded: "All art is social history; it's all made by human beings. And, consequently, it has its role in history."

Rest in power Dr. Driskell.”

– Carmen Hermo, Associate Curator, Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art

“When I was an undergrad art history student at the University of Maryland, I ran the student art gallery and while this was between the time when Dr. Driskell served as Chair of the Art Department and when he was named Distinguished Professor, he was always interested and supportive of the clique of young artists and future art historians who hung out at the West Gallery. His generosity made a real impression on me and every time he walked in the gallery I would become completely tongue-tied.”

– Catherine Morris, Sackler Senior Curator, Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art

“Although I never got to know Dr. David C. Driskell personally, I did have the opportunity to hear him speak several times. When I first began studying African American art in college, I understood that David Driskell was a pioneer in the field. But, when I tucked into seats in buzzing lectures hall to hear Dr. Driskell speak as a grad student or subsequently as a museum professional, I heard about conversations with Aaron Douglas or summer at Skowhegan--Dr. Driskell painted a picture of a life lived with the people that made up the history I was devoted to studying. With the passing of Dr. Driskell, a connection to the past has been irrevocably severed.”

– Dalila Scruggs, Fellowship Coordinator, Education

“David Driskell’s life took him from a one-room segregated schoolhouse in North Carolina to the White House. Under the Clinton administration, Driskell, acknowledged as a leading expert on African American Art, worked with Mrs. Clinton to acquire a great landscape by Henry Ossawa Tanner, who became the first Black artist to enter the White House collection. This is only one example of the many doors Driskell opened in his quest to tell a more truthful and complete story of American history and culture.”

– Eugenie Tsai, John and Barbara Vogelstein Senior Curator, Contemporary Art

“I did not have the opportunity to meet Dr. David C. Driskell, but I fondly recall seeing him speak at a CASVA symposium, The African American Art World in 20th-Century Washington, D.C., at the National Gallery of Art in 2017. There, he participated in a panel discussion with other artists (moderated by Ruth Fine) regarding the city’s impact on his own artistic development. He spoke with such passion about James A. Porter and the legacy of his teaching at Howard University.

Driskell has also left an indelible imprint on the Brooklyn Museum and its own exhibition program, most recently with his inclusion in Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power. In 1976, he curated Two Centuries of Black American Art, which opened at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 1976 and subsequently traveled to the Brooklyn Museum in 1977. In this groundbreaking exhibition and publication, he defined the “evolution of a black aesthetic” and called attention to such important eighteenth- and nineteenth-century artists as Joshua Johnson, Robert S. Duncanson, and Henry Ossawa Tanner, among many others. Driskell has significantly shaped my own thinking on American art and, in my own research, I am reminded of his rediscovery of the landscape painter Edward Mitchell Bannister who, after his death in 1901, remained largely forgotten.

A tireless advocate for Black artists, Driskell led the charge in redefining the mainstream art historical canon. He forever changed the discipline and paved the way for so many, and for that I am grateful.”

– Margarita Karasoulas, Assistant Curator of American Art

Clips from Two Centuries of Black American Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art © Pyramid Films, 1976. Brooklyn Museum Archives.

“One of the greatest treasures in the Brooklyn Museum Archives are the five videos that document the Symposium Afro-American Art: Form, Content, and Direction that occurred on June 24th and 25th, 1977 that was organized by David Driskell, the Schomburg Center, and Brooklyn Museum Staff in conjunction with the Two Centuries of Black American Art exhibition. In the afternoon of the first day, Romare Bearden, Selma Burke, Jacob Lawrence, John Rhoden, Ernest Crichlow, Vincent Smith, Bob Blackburn, Roy De Cavara, Valerie Maynard, and William T. Williams talked on stage for three hours about their artistic practices within the context of twentieth-century art traditions. It’s staggering to think of all those brilliant artists in conversation together—watching the footage, hearing the artists in their own words is profoundly moving.

When researchers are looking into the exhibition or are curious about the Museum’s history of exhibiting Black Artists, I’m always excited to share the material produced for, by, and of the exhibition. The archival material includes visitor comment books, the press kit, 22 folders of correspondence, the film produced for the exhibition, and the aforementioned symposium videos. The programming built around the exhibition was legendary, and the breadth is rarely seen today: seven artist studio visits (Howardena Pindell!), six supplemental exhibitions at other venues (The Abstract Continuum at Just Above Midtown Gallery!), twenty-two gallery talks (Dr. Rosalind Jeffries on the Harlem Renaissance!), dance performances (Sounds in Motion Dance Company!), concerts, and the list goes on. Driskell’s vision had a deep seismic effect on the art world. The people brought together at these events and programs, the knowledge shared, learned, and passed on to subsequent generations, none of this can be quantifiably measured or completely comprehended, especially from a remove, but its incredible magnitude can be felt when conducting research into the exhibition. Dozens of researchers have come to look into this history, and I look forward to welcoming future visitors to the Archives to learn more about David Driskell, hopefully inspiring them to perpetuate his monumental legacy.”

Artists and terms; at this point we should have begun this and should be able to define the terms from this brief.

Structural box sketches (Looking at human anatomy at its simplest form looking at joints and pivot point refer back to ROTOSCOPING on this.); how do we further develop them? - By trying out different stylistic features and outfits. Make a turnaround. Redraw! Moving the character.

What do we mean with fantasy quest, refer to the “detailed description”. 

What is a narrative?:

It’s how a story is told. Who? It is told to an audience. The beginning, the scenario is set up. Why is a narrative different from a story? The story is a subjective opinion about what's happening, whereas the narrative is more of an objectified version of that. Jack walks up the hill; story, Jack has mental problems, narrative.

Within animation & illustration let us consider that; a narrative is how a story is constructed & organised. This means how the information is then relayed to an audience, and in what order.

𝕿𝖆𝖘𝖐:

Look at images, construct a narrative.

𝕱𝖗𝖆𝖓𝖟𝖊𝖙𝖙𝖆

After an intense bloodthirsty battle, the last warrior stands. His power immense, his life eternal.

𝕲𝖚𝖞 𝕸𝖈𝕶𝖎𝖓𝖑𝖊𝖞

The skulls of the battlefield are collected by witches of the woods, used for spiritual rituals as the fallen souls are attached indefinitely to their severed heads.

So what is narrative theory?

Exposition -> Rising action -> Climax -> Falling action -> Denouement

Exposition: This is where the characters of the story gets introduces alongside the story and plot itself. This is often the most difficult part to set up successfully, simply because you need to capture the readers/viewers/target audiences’ attention and have then clued in on what’s going on in the story, but this has to be done without completely spoiling the rest of the story. It is important to not mistake exposition and an info dump.   

The characters: Who are the characters? How do you differentiate them from each other? What makes them interesting?                  

The setting/context: Where does the story take place? When does it take place at? What time period?                   

The mood: What tone is conveyed during the exposition of the story? 

Rising action: This is the moment where the plot and narrative starts picking up. Rising action is usually encouraged by a key trigger, which is what tells the reader that ��now things will start to take form.” This key trigger is what rolls the dice, that then causes a series of events to escalate to then set the story into motion.

Climax: A climax builds upon everything that has been introduced during the exposition and rising action. This is the moment of truth for the protagonist and the peak moment of the story. You know the plot is successful at delivering a good climax when the outer journeys and the inner goals of which the protagonist wish to complete click.

Falling action: So, what now? You’ve technically finished the story. Finishing a story after a climax or during one is what is known as a cliff-hanger. Cliff hangers work well in film series, but they don’t feel as satisfying. A way to see falling action could be as the old saying; “What goes up must come down.” Putting together any hanging threads not yet solved in the plot is done during this stage.

Denouement: Denouement (resolution) is a fancy way of saying that the story is about to come to an end. At this point, all questions are resolved and answered; letting the reader.

𝕿𝖆𝖘𝖐:

BBC animation defining the narrative, look for new terms and note them down.

All media texts tell a story. The narrative is about how a narrative unfolds 

Story arc (transition from beginning to end)

stage 1

Stasis, setting up the story and meeting the protagonist, everything is normal at this point. This can be related to exposition.

Stage 2

“Trigger” that sends things in motion. creating the root for a fantasy quest to overcome and solve. This can relate to “rising action”.

Stage 3

Surprise! This moment can also be described as an obstacle of sorts.

Critical choice - high drama and stress. This reveals to the audience what kind of character they are. This is also considered part of the rising action.

Stage 4

The climax - The resolution of the conflict. The buildup of the whole story comes to this moment.

Stage 5

Reversal; character realises they're not useless. They change the character; develop them. Related to the denouement.

𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖘𝖙𝖘

Visual studies

Looking -> Doing (draw)

Repetition is incredibly important to ensure accuracy is portrayed within a study.

In the beginning, we are looking at tonal values. We are doing this with the help of skulls;

But why specifically skulls? Well, they are symbolic/iconic in the history of art. It symbolises death or a new beginning after an end within storytelling, thought in storytelling it can also symbolise a worthy trophy or token. This ties in well with the theme of narrative, world building and character creating using the theme of fantasy.

𝕿𝖆𝖘𝖐 𝖔𝖓𝖊

For this, a selection of different skulls were places on tables around the classroom. We were to select any of these to begin drawing by using the “drawing - looking” technique, ensuring that we are observing rather than drawing from our imagination. It was important for use to find a good angle; not too close to the object. If we were to sit too close to the subject, it would be more difficult to see the subject as a whole. This exercise is not focused on capturing detail, but rather it focuses on being able to capture the essence of the object/main subject. On another note, the perspective of light and angle is important in visual studies. This is what changes how your outcome is going to come out. So with all of this in mind, we began by choosing to work with either chalk or graphite, staying be loose and light while sketching.

In order, there were the three different visual studies that I did of the human skull:

1

In this one, I simply just focused on letting go, not focusing too much on capturing the little detail of the skull, but just making sure that I have gotten the basic shape accurate to what I was seeing before me.

2

For the second attempt, I changed the angle to see how the light was changing.

3

𝕿𝖆𝖘𝖐 𝖙𝖜𝖔

So during the first task, we took a more traditional/analogue route. During the second task, we were introduced with the ideas of expanding upon this exercise; further experimenting with mediums and techniques to see how far you can push the limit of what is possible.

I decided to try out using some felt tip markers; It’s probably the medium I am most insecure about using, so I thought it would be suitable to challenge myself.

I taped together two markers; a pink and a light green. On top of that, I tried drawing the skull in front of me (from different angles every time) but with a twist each time; sometimes I’d draw while only looking at the skull, but not down at the paper. Other times I tried drawing the skull without looking at all. It gave some interesting results;

Here are the some pictures showing the two sheets of paper at the end of the lesson and exercise:

But before the lesson ended, we went over some evaluation by looking at what everyone had created;

Pour Quoi?

Shows how you are developing drawing skills from observation (looking & doing)

Shows that you are a diverse practitioner and can embrace all media, especially through traditional approaches

Generating ideas from primary sources enables you to show higher-level approaches to research

What now?

Using these observational sketches, I can develop ideas for a character or character accessory.

I can ask myself question based upon this exercise ie. “What role could the skull play in communicating a narrative idea or theme?”

After this exercise, I decided to further have a play around with the concept of looking and drawing. I found a video of a 3D horse skull made by “handpuppe” on YouTube. Here’s a gif of the video:

Using this for reference similarly to what we did in lesson, I began drawing some of the frames at random, using the method of looking and drawing repeatedly. Below are the tree visual studies that I did, all three drawn from different angles.

I didn’t want to just leave it here. Since this counts as being primary research to some extend, I wanted to build upon that. I decided to do this by using the anatomy of the skull to draw the horse on top of it on separate layer, allowing me to get the proportions anatomically correct.

Here is the finished result of this little side experiment:

I found that this really opened my mind to understanding how useful it can be to sit down and just do some visual studying and researching. It helps to further improve one on a skill level, but also just to understand how anatomy or the form of a subject is built up. It’s not exactly a thing you actively think about on the regular, so it is very refreshing to do this kind of drawing now and then. I will be sure to try and do this more frequently for these reasons, potentially using it as a way to warm up before starting some more “serious” work.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings Review

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Like most Marvel Studios offerings, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is a peculiar but polished amalgam of subverted genre tropes, dazzling action sequences, and heartfelt character moments that is ultimately meant to feed the larger MCU monster.

But more importantly, it’s a cultural milestone for Asian and AAPI audiences, who have been underrepresented and misrepresented in major motion pictures since, well, the advent of film. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is another gigantic superhero movie from arguably the biggest studio on the planet, but the fact that it features a diverse cast of Asian characters (what a concept) makes it nothing short of ground-breaking.

At the center of it all is Simu Liu (Kim’s Convenience), who proves out of the gate that he has the chops to balance both badassery and buffoonery, a valuable skill that most MCU lead roles call for. He may not seem like superhero-movie material in the early moments of the film, but once he throws that first, rib-shattering punch, it’s abundantly clear that he’s the man for the job. Whether he’s throwing verbal jabs or physical ones, Liu is a natural, and he’s more than charismatic enough to carry the franchise forward for years to come. To be the first Asian superhero on the big screen is a high-pressure position to be in, but Liu rises to the occasion.

The spine of the story does follow the familiar MCU formula, but the narrative structure is far from the movie’s defining characteristic. What’s most notable here is that the film pretty much does everything well. The action is blistering and beautiful, the writing is as fun and hilarious as it is poignant and poetic. As an adventure movie, it hits you with thrills and surprises at almost every turn. And its themes—of generational dissonance, found identity, and forgiveness—are woven into the film elegantly.

Shaun (Simu Liu) and his best friend Katy (Awkwafina, Crazy Rich Asians) are all but sleepwalking through life as valet drivers at an upscale hotel in San Francisco. When a gang of assassins attack Shaun on a bus and he disposes of them with relative ease, it becomes clear to Katy that her ol’ drinking buddy has been hiding a dark secret.

Turns out, Shaun is actually Shang-Chi, a cold-blooded killer trained by his father, Wenwu (Tony Leung), a master warrior and possessor of the legendary Ten Rings. The friends travel to China to confront Wenwu, find Shang-Chi’s estranged, equally deadly sister Xialing (Meng’er Zhang), and uncover the truth behind his mother Jiang Li’s (Fala Chen) death, which could be tied to her mystical homeland, Ta-Lo. 

The cast is incredibly well-rounded—each actor brings something unique to the table. Leung gives the film a deep sense of gravity (if you’ve seen his previous work you’ll know that he tends to have this effect on the movies he’s in), and his machismo is balanced out by Chen, who exudes the kind of warmth and inner-strength that only mothers possess. Michelle Yeoh, like Leung, is seemingly ageless and brings a measure of legitimacy to the proceedings as Shang-Chi’s aunt. Liu and Awkwafina are fine onscreen partners as well, with the latter’s explosive personality serving as a nice counterbalance to Liu’s pathos. While their chemistry doesn’t really click until about halfway through the movie, they certainly arrive at a good place. 

There are two kinds of acting going on in Shang-Chi, as there are in every martial arts/action movie. There’s acting with the face and voice, which is the conventional kind. And then there’s acting with the body–the physical stuff. Great action stars know how to tell a complex story without words, using their entire body, and the actors certainly deliver in this department. 

In a flashback, we see Shang-Chi’s parents’ first date, which just so happens to be a flirty fist fight in an enchanted bamboo forest. Wenwu is balled-up, bro-ed out, and fights with anger; Jiang Li is calm, confident, and diverts his power gracefully. The camera swirls around them as they tussle, and on a purely visual level, their story is laid out clearly–he’s an asshole, and she’s there to teach him how to not be such an asshole. The visual storytelling going on in the fight scenes is what makes them truly special.

But if it’s hard-hitting martial arts action you want, Shang-Chi’s got you covered there, too. The hand-to-hand combat sequences are staged and filmed incredibly well and pay homage to different styles of kung-fu movies, from the elemental brutality of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, to the urban controlled chaos of Jackie Chan. An eye-popping, acrobatic brawl that takes place on scaffolding suspended hundreds of feet above the streets of Macau is simply put one of the best fight scenes the MCU has to offer—it’s just breath-taking.

The film’s final battle turns into more of a visual effects-driven mess, unfortunately. It lacks the tactility and weight of the earlier fight scenes, and while from an art-design standpoint the environments and characters in the final act look incredible, when the action gets hectic and the camera starts shaking uncontrollably, it becomes a distraction.

Director Destin Daniel Cretton puts a major emphasis on presenting multi-dimensional characters that feel like fleshed-out human beings. While this may not ostensibly seem like a novel idea, it’s worth noting that, more often than not, Asian characters in big-budget movies lack depth and aren’t portrayed as leaders. Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings breaks the mold in glorious fashion, with characters that are strong, brave and brilliant, and whose shortcomings are as compelling as their virtues.

Just because a film is on the right side of history doesn’t automatically mean it’s any good. It was entirely possible for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings to wind up being underwhelming, or gimmicky, or cliched, despite its intrinsically positive cultural relevance. Luckily, this isn’t the case whatsoever. It’s a supremely entertaining movie on every level, and the fact that it will likely kick in the door for more Asian superheroes to take center stage in the future (Jubilee, please) is icing on the cake.

Amblin Partners and Netflix have forged a partnership, one that will see the company headed by Steven Spielberg produce multiple new feature films for the streaming service every year. The pact gives Netflix access to one of the most legendary directors in the movie business at a time when competition in the streaming space is growing fiercer with the launch of Disney Plus, HBO Max and other challengers.⁣⁣

⁣⁣

The move is surprising and a sign of the major changes taking place in Hollywood, in part because Spielberg has previously been seen as something of a Netflix skeptic. In 2019, for instance, the director reportedly urged the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to bar day-and-date streaming releases from being eligible for Oscars. Sources close to the director, however, dispute that Spielberg ever tried to bar Netflix from eligibility. He later clarified his position in a statement to The New York Times, in which he denied he had tried to prevent Netflix from winning Oscars. He also reaffirmed his support for the theatrical experience, while stating, “I want people to find their entertainment in any form or fashion that suits them. Big screen, small screen — what really matters to me is a great story and everyone should have access to great stories.”⁣⁣

⁣fashion that suits them. Big screen, small screen — what really matters to me is a great story and everyone should have access to great stories.”⁣

⁣

Amblin will continue to maintain offices on the Universal lot, where the company also has a production pact. Under the deal, Amblin is expected to produce at least two films a year for Netflix for an unspecified number of years. It is possible that Spielberg may even direct some of the projects. Netflix is expected to provide financing for some of these productions. That likely won’t include his next movie, an untitled, semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story with Seth Rogen and Michelle Williams, which is expected to land at Universal.⁣

⁣

The Netflix movies do not have any budgetary or genre requirements attached to them. They may also receive some type of theatrical release as have other Netflix pics such as “The Irishman” and “Marriage Story,” but that will be decided on a case-by-case basis.⁣

⁣

Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos and Scott Stuber, head of original films at Netflix, who previously worked closely with Spielberg when he was an executive at Universal, played key roles in hammering out the deal. CAA advised Amblin Partners on the negotiations.⁣

⁣

⁣

“At Amblin, storytelling will forever be at the center of everything we do, and from the minute Ted and I started discussing a partnership, it was abundantly clear that we had an amazing opportunity to tell new stories together and reach audiences in new ways,” Spielberg said in a statement. “This new avenue for our films, alongside the stories we continue to tell with our longtime family at Universal and our other partners, will be incredibly fulfilling for me personally since we get to embark on it together with Ted, and I can’t wait to get started with him, Scott, and the entire Netflix team.”⁣

⁣

Amblin and Netflix have worked together in the past. Amblin produced “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” which was originally set up at Paramount before being sold to Netflix during COVID. It received six nominations at the 93rd Academy Awards, including a nod for best picture. Amblin and Netflix are currently collaborating on Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein pic, “Maestro,” which is in pre-production.⁣

⁣

“By deepening our ties with Netflix via this new film partnership, we are building on what has for many years been an incredibly successful working relationship in both television and film,” Amblin Partners CEO Jeff Small stated. “The global platform they’ve built — with more than 200 million members — speaks for itself, and we’re extremely grateful to have the opportunity to work closely with Scott and his amazing team to deliver Amblin’s iconic brand of storytelling to the Netflix audience.”⁣

⁣

Under Sarandos and Stuber, Netflix has made a point of working with major auteur filmmakers, many of whom made their mark creating movies for the big screen. Those moves have come at a time when major studios have grown more risk averse, forgoing more personal or idiosyncratic films in favor of superhero pics and franchise fare. In this atmosphere, directors like Spike Lee (“Da 5 Bloods”) and Martin Scorsese (“The Irishman”) have set up shop at the streaming service after studios balked at their movies’ budgets, while David Fincher recently signed a multi-year deal with the company. But Spielberg, with his resume of Oscar winners like “Schindler’s List” and blockbusters like “Jurassic Park,” towers over all modern directors.⁣

⁣

“Steven is a creative visionary and leader and, like so many others around the world, my growing up was shaped by his memorable characters and stories that have been enduring, inspiring and awakening,” Sarandos said. “We cannot wait to get to work with the Amblin team and we are honored and thrilled to be part of this chapter of Steven’s cinematic history.”⁣

⁣

For his part, Stuber stated, “Amblin and Steven Spielberg are synonymous with incredible entertainment. Their passion and artistry combine to make films that both captivate and challenge audiences. We look forward to working with Steven, Jeff and the entire Amblin family on a new slate of films that will delight generations for years to come.”⁣

⁣

Amblin’s recent movies include “Green Book,” “1917” and “The House With a Clock in Its Walls.”⁣

The first purge

I originally tried to watch the original purge but this was all that was available for my viewing.

The First Purge was released on July 4, 2018, by Universal Pictures. It has grossed over $137 million worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing entry in the franchise, but received mixed reviews from critics like its predecessors.

America's third political party, the New Founding Fathers of America, comes to power and conducts an experiment: no laws for 12 hours on Staten Island. No one has to stay on the island, but $5,000 is given to anyone who does. 

“This horror/action-adventure film from director Gerard McMurray serves as a prequel that recounts events that led up to the first Purge event. To push the crime rate below one percent for the rest of the year, the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA) test a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community.

A crazed drug addict named Skeletor talks on camera about his dark thoughts, including his desire to "purge" and unleash his hatred on other people. An unknown voice on the other end of the camera tells Skeletor that he will soon be able to. Sometime in the 21st century, turmoil has caused the government to be overthrown by the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA). NFFA members Arlo Sabian and Dr. May Updale announce an experiment to take place on Staten Island where for 12 hours, citizens will be allowed to purge and release their inhibitions in any way they choose. The NFFA offers residents of the Island $5000 to stay in their homes during the experiment and a compensation for those participating as well. They also outfit the participants with tracking devices and contact lenses with cameras in them so that they can monitor all activity. Drug lord Dmitri tells his dealers that they will be leaving but drug dealer Capital A wants to stay and purge. Another young drug dealer, Isaiah, gets into a fight with Skeletor and gets his neck cut. Isaiah goes to his sister Nya, an anti-Purge activist and Dimitri's ex-girlfriend, for treatment, and Nya later confronts Dmitri as she believes that Dmitri is Isaiah's drug lord, which he denies..”

Personally i like the idea of the whole plot. It gives an insight to how the world would be with no laws, and how the government would still manage to manipulate it. Its a really interesting idea considering it had been used in real history, by the Romans. The film gets you extremely attached to the characters almost giving you an emotional attachment, i personally really felt this for the character Isaiah.

7/10.

The acting throughout is nothing incredible nor horrible, but the actors/ers ability to get you so attached to their character is incredible. This also ties in to the fear and disgust they portray throughout, it makes it feel real for them and this is something most films just don't do as well.

8/10

the composition throughout is really well done. Personally i love the style/techniques used. To begin with they use drones and zoomed out wider shots, really giving the scale of the experiment. But later on focus more on the characters individually giving us that personal connection. Not only this but it also gives us the feeling as if we were part of the purge and not a spectator of it.

The composition used when interviewing the public , when applying to participate within the purge, is done really well. It has a really medical vibe that just makes me feel uneasy. The low angles make you fell as if you are below the person interviewing you, really portraying that intimidation you get when in an interview.

9/10 Favourite scenes? Some of my favourite scenes were; the iconic sirens to announce the commencing and ending of the purge. This is mostly because its a memorable part of the movie and something that carries throughout the entire franchise.

The more comedic scene of the dolls and teddies being used as bombs to try kill Isaiah was a interesting scene that just lightened the mood a little , but also gave a weird uneasy feeling as it is a very psychotic thing to be done.

The fight in the stairwell of the tower apartments was amazing to, it just looks extremely badass. The composition was done well in enhancing the close combat feeling and overall was just a great scene to keep you on the edge of your seat.

But overall my favourite scene was just before the purge ends. They throw a c4 bomb into the room and shoot it. This just was extremely well done to me , they made them miss and few times and then get shot to add to the realism which worked greatly, along with this the composition was outstanding the use of slow-motion that showed how fast things were happening was beautiful and something not many films can pull off.

Another note to be made is that the film opens with a lot of news reporters and riots, this was the exact same feeling as i was going for for the opening of my trailer. This is great as its almost like a hint the purge being inspiration for the story.

September 25, 2017 10:00am PT by Chris E. Hayner From legacy characters to a certain bottle of wine, 'Star Trek: Discovery' is loaded with references to the many incarnations of the 'Star Trek' franchise. [Warning: This story contains spoilers from the first two episodes of Star Trek: Discovery.]   With the beginning of Star Trek: Discovery came the return of many things that are very familiar to the franchise's most die-hard fans. Though Discovery is set ten years before the start of the original Star Trek series, producers on the CBS All Access drama have paid special attention to the details Trekkies will be looking for as they immerse themselves in this new iteration.   That starts with the introduction of characters like Ambassador Sarek (James Frain), who happens to be the father of original series character Spock (Leonard Nimoy), and a younger version of Harry Mudd (Rainn Wilson), who appeared on that same show. But those two castings are just the beginning. After watching the two-part series premiere, THR compiled the most notable references to other versions of Star Trek.    1. The Klingon language   The first thing seen or heard on Discovery is the Klingon language, spoken and written on the screen in subtitles. Given the major role Klingons play in the plot of the series, fans should get used to hearing the alien species' native tongue fairly regularly. And it's not just gibberish being spoken. After the sound and a few words were developed for Star Trek: The Motion Picture in 1979, it was later expanded in 1984's Star Trek III: The Search for Spock and a dictionary was released in 1985.    2. The Theme Song   It's hard to miss the inspiration the theme for Discovery takes from the original series. The two songs open with a similar arrangement of string instruments, while the Discovery theme ends with the signature Star Trek fanfare. "The music of Trek is a critical part of the experience of Trek. The original Alexander Courage theme is one of the most iconic and memorable themes of all time," executive producer Alex Kurtzman says in a featurette. "It's built into the DNA of the show."  [embedded content]  3. The Uniforms   No Starfleet officer is complete without their uniform and the Discovery team went back to the original series as well as Star Trek: Enterprise for inspiration in designing their take on the classic look. "We were looking at doing the red, blue and gold shirts," costume designer Gersha Phillips explains in another featurette. "We've come up with a system where we're doing a foiled compression panel and delta panels that we're putting in on the jackets that tell the same story about the departments. We have gold for command, silver for science and copper for operations and engineering."  [embedded content]  4. The Props   Given that Discovery is set a decade before the original Star Trek series, it would seem out of place to have props with advanced technology far beyond what Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and his team used. That's why the props master Mario Moreira and his team went retro with their devices. "We approached the prop elements as a period piece," he explains in a featurette.   While he described the look of items like the phaser and communicator as more militaristic than those seen on the original series, it's hard to miss how similar they look to the Star Trek devices of yore, right down to the tricorder.  [embedded content]  5. The Sounds   From the moment First Officer Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) steps onto the bridge of the USS Shenzhou, one small but incredibly important detail was very apparent. The ambient noise in the bridge, comprised of various computers and sensors, sounds very familiar to what was heard on the original series. While not a direct replica of the ambient noise from that show, closely mimicking goes a long way in bringing longtime fans back to the feel of the series.    6. The Vulcan Nerve Pinch   The Vulcan nerve pinch has a long history in the Star Trek universe, after first being used by Spock (Leonard Nimoy) in the original series. It has since appeared throughout various incarnations of Star Trek, both on TV and in film. While non-Vulcans have used the technique before, it is a rarity. That said, as a human raised by Vulcans, it makes sense that Burnham would have a comprehensive understanding of the maneuver.    7. The Hidden Easter Egg   While some of the references to the larger Star Trek universe were more obvious, that didn't stop producers from also hiding smaller nods in the background. Take Captain Georgiou's (Michelle Yeoh) ready room, for instance. In the room a bottle of Chateau Picard wine can be found, according to TV Guide.    While this is an actual real-world wine, it also has ties to Star Trek: The Next Generation's Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart). It is revealed in that series that Picard comes from a family of winemakers dating back to before his birth, making this particular bottle of wine canon-compliant.   With so much history to explore, don’t expect the references to other versions of Star Trek to stop anytime soon. As a prequel, Discovery is heading toward an end that fans already know -- the world that exists at the beginning of the original series. It would surprise few if the show’s producers continue to introduce elements of the canon, big and small, to help structure the universe they are building toward.    Star Trek: Discovery streams Sundays at 8:30 p.m. on CBS All Access.Star Trek: DiscoveryLet's block ads!

Best Action Movies on Netflix Right Now

Street House

It's absolutely not a reasoning man's activity motion picture, what with faulty maxims like "Agony don't hurt," yet Road House is '80s schlock at its best. Patrick Swayze stars in a standout amongst his most suffering jobs as bar bouncer Dalton, a touchy man who invests his energy perusing and contemplating life when he isn't thoroughly demolishing boisterous benefactors. Dalton is only the kind of solid, certain activity legend we need in these alarming occasions.

Batman Begins and The Dark Knight

The best two sections of Christopher Nolan's Batman set of three are presently on Netflix, reinforcing an officially amazing lineup of superhuman motion pictures. Batman Begins figured out how to without any assistance wipe away the disgrace made by the shocking Batman and Robin, rebooting the Caped Crusader with a beginning story brimming with authenticity, gravitas and a portion of James Bond-esque cool. The Dark Knight at that point raised Batman to new artistic statures, enhancing everything that worked in the first and giving us one of the untouched extraordinary film lowlifess in Heath Ledger's Joker.

Pineapple Express

James Franco and Seth Rogen are dependably an engaging pair, particularly in this stoner activity motion picture that gives them a role as two pot cherishing numskulls who have the setback to stroll in on a homicide. At an early stage, you can contend about whether Pineapple Express qualifies as more parody than activity motion picture, however that question is rendered disputable by the blood-splashed second half. This motion picture takes two incredible tastes - Judd Apatow-delivered uncivilized comedies and savage shootouts - and demonstrates they can go extraordinary together.

Hunching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

The wuxia sub-kind of hand to hand fighting films is portrayed by a chronicled setting, stories including clashes among adoration and obligation and effortless, even balletic showcases of battling ability. You'll locate every one of the three of these in bounty in this exemplary film from 2000. A standout amongst the most famous combative techniques motion pictures in the West, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon rotates around the chase for an amazing sharp edge called the Sword of Destiny, a weapon that gives incredible power yet in addition carries with it just torment. The battle scenes in this one are epic, however the twin romantic tales are similarly enchanting.

Kung Fu Hustle

Quite a while in the past, Jackie Chan demonstrated what a triumphant blend kung fu and droll cleverness can be. Barely any cutting edge combative techniques motion pictures respect that inheritance just as Stephen Chow's Kung Fu Hustle. This comedic hoodlum motion picture is essentially a real to life animation. It figures out how to spoof endless great motion pictures even as it conveys some hard-hitting battle scenes. The way that Kung Fu Hustle includes such a large number of dearest entertainers from '70s kung fu film is simply good to beat all. (Accessible 3/15/19.)

Insect Man and the Wasp

The continuation of Ant-Man is a creative and cheerful heist film, in which The Wasp hauls Ant-Man into an intricate experience including a voyage to the Quantum Realm, a structure that gets stolen amidst a vehicle pursue, and bunches of pretty much nothing, mammoth, smart activity groupings. The Ant-Man motion pictures are presumably the most beguiling MCU films, and the incredible outfit cast and special set pieces make this one emerge.

The Raid: Redemption

At the point when a SWAT group pursues a ground-breaking wrongdoing ruler, they get caught inside a structure with apparently endless executioners, every one of whom need them dead. Once Gareth Evans' astonishing activity spine chiller gets moving it never eases up. It's a debilitating arrangement of amazing battle scenes, every one noteworthy and ruthless. The Raid: Redemption increased present expectations for activity film, and most movie producers are as yet attempting to get up to speed.

Vindicators: Infinity War

The most epic real to life hero hybrid ever plays like a major spending plan, activity stuffed rendition of Robert Altman's Nashville, finished with handfuls and many significant characters, every one of whom slip into one another's accounts without anyone else way to triumph or disaster. It's the sort of rambling hero motion picture that could never have been conceivable, or even intelligible, for standard spectators to acknowledge 10 years prior, and it speaks to a huge strange scene of superhuman film later on. Furthermore, it's additionally exciting, clever, enthralling activity filmmaking for sure!

Dark Hawk Down

Ridley Scott's Oscar-winning war epic, about a challenging salvage endeavor following a messed up mission in Mogadishu, isn't tied in with clearing worldwide governmental issues or man's cruelty to man. It's about the occasion, amidst a firefight, where nothing matters except for the general population beside you. Scott catches the staggeringly mind boggling shootouts, topography, strategies and huge gathering cast with a deftness that must be respected, and by one way or another causes the riotous Black Hawk Down appear to be anything but difficult to pursue. It's not the most quick war motion picture at any point made, however it's a standout amongst the most exciting.

The Indiana Jones Series

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg worked together on the great Indiana Jones films, making the gooey move motion picture tropes of their childhoods and making an interpretation of them to the extra large screen utilizing each new, energizing, costly method available to them. The primary film, Raiders of the Lost Ark, is about tantamount to activity motion pictures ever get, with adorable characters and obnoxious miscreants all scanning for the equivalent mysterious fortune, getting into one monster and remarkable set piece after another. The spin-offs are blended, however for the most part extraordinary: Temple of Doom resorts to offending generalizations yet in addition includes presumably the most amazing activity arrangements in the establishment's history; Last Crusade has notorious set pieces and the awesome Sean Connery as Indie's stuffy dad, yet the jokey tone ransacks the arrangement of its gravitas; and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is entirely idiotic from beginning to end, yet in any event it's never dull.

Hellboy

Before he won an Oscar for coordinating the frightfulness fantasy The Shape of Water, Guillermo del Toro carried his weirdo sensibilities to Hellboy, an adjustment of Mike Mignola's honor winning comic book arrangement. Ron Perlman is immaculate as the title character, an evil presence from damnation who was raised by people to shield us from heavenly powers. The plot is careless however the beast impacts are dynamite, the activity is cool and the lead exhibitions by Perlman and Selma Blair, as a firestarter who can't confide in herself, are anything but difficult to experience passionate feelings for.

Daring

Hand to hand fighting genius Jet Li stars as Huo Yuanjia, a genuine ace who tested warriors from around the globe to duels, and turned into a national saint in China. Stream Li has featured in numerous motion pictures since Fearless, and some of them are incredible, however this movie is by all accounts his last, genuinely extraordinary hand to hand fighting epic, instructing significant exercises about the fine art and letting the star totally trimmed free in astonishing battle groupings, coordinated by the incomparable Ronny Yu (The Bride with White Hair). Intrepid probably won't be Jet Li's absolute best film... in any case, it's nearby.

Headshot

Envision the plot of The Bourne Identity, yet with the battle scenes from The Raid. That is the misjudged activity spine chiller Headshot, which stars Iko Uwais as an amnesiac who needs to ensure himself, and his therapist, from a multitude of combative techniques professional killers who need him dead. Headshot ostensibly works shockingly better on gushing, on the grounds that the activity is so dazzling, thus savage, you may need to delay the film just to regain some composure.

Dark Panther

The greatest Marvel motion picture ever, and with great purpose. Chadwick Boseman stars in Black Panther, a film that consolidates Afrofuturism with the hero type, giving crowds something they'd never observed, on a scale that is difficult to envision. Michael B. Jordan co-stars as one of the incomparable MCU scalawags, and Letitia Wright takes every one of her scenes as an innovative virtuoso who puts Tony Stark to disgrace. This is the mix of exemplary valor, intense true to life style and significant topics that superhuman fans longed for. What's more, they got everything.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi

The eight section in the Star Wars adventure of sets of three is a standout amongst the most dubious, yet additionally a standout amongst the most excitedly paced, extreme and capricious. The Resistance is on the kept running from the fascistic First Order, driving Rey (Daisy Ridley), Poe (Oscar Isaac) and Finn (John Boyega) to separate and attempt each trap available to them - and gain proficiency with a lot of new ones - to make all the difference. The Last Jedi pursues the fundamental structure of The Empire Strikes Back, with saints isolated, appalling inversions and startling disclosures, just to change itself in the last demonstration into something new, a film that looks to the future as opposed to living completely previously.

Thor: Ragnarok

Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Loki (Tom Hiddleston) get sucked onto an outsider planet, where Thor fights the Hulk and Loki's devotions are tested (for the umpteenth time), in Taika Waititi's eccentric and inventive Marvel Cinematic Universe experience, with champion exhibitions by Cate Blanchett and Tessa Thompson adjusting the amazing cast. A lot is on the line, the activity is fantastic, and each narrating choice feels like it came shouting out of misjudged 1980s space show peculiarities like The Ice Pirates or Krull. (For the record, that is a compliment.)

The Castle of Cagliostro

Before he turned into the all around acclaimed chief of movies like My Neighbor Totoro and Spirited Away, Hayao Miyazaki coordinated The Castle of Cagliostro, a tearing experience anecdote about a magnetic criminal named Lupin III who unearths a wild connivance including fake cash and grabbing. Miyazaki's trademark liveliness is as of now going all out, and the motion picture still feels wondrous and ageless.

The Hurt Locker

The Hurt Locker is broadly viewed as one of the best war motion pictures made in the post-9/11 time. Executive Kathryn Bigelow investigates the serious weight looked by individuals from a dangerous law evacuation group during the Iraq War, with a cast that incorporates Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Brian Geraghty, Christian Camargo, Ralph Fiennes, David Morse and Guy Pearce. The film commanded the 2010 Academy Awards, and in light of current circumstances. It's amazingly well-made and a genuinely instinctive encounter.

Why I Love the Martial Arts

What is combative techniques? Who is it useful for? How can it help? Nowadays, an ever increasing number of individuals are posing these inquiries. What is it about hand to hand fighting preparing that has made it so mainstream today - particularly for kids? Hand to hand fighting has gone from being this enchanted, periphery movement rehearsed in dim storm cellars by for the most part testosterone driven youngsters to an action the whole family can partake in. Nowadays it's delighted in by the most youthful youngster to the most established grown-up. I for one began taking Taekwon-Do when I was 18. Be that as it may, I began to look all starry eyed at it as a small kid. Anyway when I was a child in the seventies, guardians didn't enlist kids in hand to hand fighting. Kids played baseball, football and soccer. Be that as it may, it was viewing Kung Fu theater each Saturday pursued by re-establishing it with the local kids after-wards that allured me. Bruce Lee was at that point passed when I was 6. In any case, his legend lived on in us. At that point a fundamental crossroads in ongoing hand to hand fighting history occurred. The Karate Kid was discharged in 1984. From that point forward, everything changed. Guardians rushed to Karate schools by the droves. They found in that motion picture that hand to hand fighting wasn't care for what was educated at the Cobra Kai Karate Dojo (that is the place the trouble makers rehearsed in the motion picture). They needed their kid to be changed by Mr. Myagi the manner in which Daniel was. Martial arts preparing consistently has been about order, regard, poise, center and unstoppable soul. Before the Karate Kid, the vast majority just considered it to be battling. After, they started to acknowledge it truly was tied in with building character. This one film overwhelmed schools with droves of youthful understudies. The main issue is numerous schools had truly no clue how to instruct kids. The entirety of the abrupt they wound up in unknown waters and elevated tide was coming. To exacerbate the situation, numerous schools didn't understand they were accomplishing more damage to numerous than great. The same number of schools went from having a functioning understudy tally of around 40 grown-ups to 125 kids, they needed to change the manner in which they educated. Be that as it may, many didn't.

In the event that you instruct it to a multi year old a similar way you would a multi year old, the incredible exercises are simply lost. What's more awful is that it isn't any diversion for the kid and conceivably will demolish hand to hand fighting for them until the end of time. This proceeds even at this point. Numerous schools still exist in that seventies attitude that I recall from my childhood. Educators go down and instruct what was passed down to them. They indiscriminately pursue 'convention'.

It was on the grounds that he was attempting to thump a lose block from his prison cell so he could get away. I'm making that up, yet the fact is that the convention behind something could possibly consistently be what it appears. Stripping ceaselessly the convention is significant.

Why America: The Motion Picture’s One Rule Was “No Research”

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

This article contains light spoilers for America: The Motion Picture.

Director Matt Thompson has been in the adult animated comedy game for a long time. Thompson was around for the dawn of Adult Swim in 2001 when the programming block hosted Sealab 2021, the series he created alongside frequent collaborator Adam Reed. Reed and Thompson would go on to produce several other animated classics including Frisky Dingo and Archer (which is set to premiere its 12th season later this year).

Still, when it came time to direct his first feature animated film, Netflix’s America: The Motion Picture, the seasoned vet realized that movies are a unique beast. 

“(With films) you get a lot more time to sit and try to make things funnier, to make more jokes,” Thompson says. “When you’re on a very tight deadline of episodic television, you kind of have to kick stuff out and move forward.”

America: The Motion Picture is an ambitious undertaking for any director. The film, which comes from a script penned by Dave Callaham (Wonder Woman 1984, Mortal Kombat), is a very, very, very, very loose retelling of America’s founding myth. In Callaham and Thompson’s version of history, George Washington (Channing Tatum) and Abraham Lincoln (Will Forte) aren’t only contemporaries: they’re bros. Paul Revere (Bobby Moynihan) is a horse-obsessed man-child. Thomas Edison (Olivia Munn) is a Chinese-American woman sorcerer of science. And Benedict Arnold (Andy Samberg)? Well, he’s just a real piece of work.

The end goal was to present a version of the country’s founding that could have sprung from its, let’s say, underfunded public education system. Who was Sam Adams (Jason Mantzoukas) again? We know he had something to do with beer. Why did Washington cross the Delaware? Was it to get to the other side? No, that can’t be right. 

“There are all these little things that are ‘correct adjacent’,” Thompson says.

We spoke with Thompson about America: The Motion Picture’s many anachronisms and what it meant to say goodbye to an old friend on Archer.

Den of Geek: I’m not necessarily the most learned student of American or British history. But was there a reason you went with “King James” as opposed to King George III?

Matt Thompson: Yes, very much so. The writer of the movie, Dave Callahan, had one rule: no research. Because that’s what America is. We’re all undereducated. And we don’t even know enough about our own country. I guarantee you that the lion’s share of people who watch this film will not question that fact. King James is kind of in the lexicon already because of LeBron James. You also don’t want King George to fight George (Washington), which is a little bit confusing on its face. What do you think is the amount of people that are going to catch that?

I don’t know. I probably wouldn’t have caught it if it weren’t for Hamilton.

Yes, agreed. But it was definitely King George. Another thing is, in (real) American history before George Washington gave up the mantle of president, there was a lot of concern with the original colonies that he would declare himself king. There’s a scene in the movie where George meets Samuel Adams, the inventor of beer, and he introduces himself as the future King of America. That is a little small nod to people’s concerns at the time for George Washington.

That was a weird thing for me to be pedantic about, because you just mentioned Sam Adams is the inventor of beer in this.

You are right there. There are all these little things that are “correct adjacent” like Sam Adams, the inventor of beer, you can extrapolate there. The opening scene in Ford’s theater – Lincoln does die there, it’s just that his throat is bitten off by a werewolf instead of a bullet from an assassin. That same assassin is actually John Wilkes Merch Booth, who is running the merchandising booth at the play that they’re attending as a small nod.

You mentioned Abraham Lincoln. While he doesn’t have a very prominent part, what was it like to get Will Forte back in his iconic Clone High role?

That’s another great thing working with (Phil) Lord and (Christopher) Miller, right? Like “hey, you think you can get Will Forte as Lincoln?” I’ve never worked with Will before but he came in and man, he just crushed that. We actually added that dream scene later on because we wanted to see Lincoln again. Will has played Lincoln for Lord and Miller I think three or four times now. He’s also Lincoln in one of the Lego movies.

That’s amazing. I can’t wait for Lincoln in a Spider-Verse movie.

That would be awesome. The whole cast was amazing. Every single one of the cast just brought something unique and different to their roles. I’ve been doing this job of casting comedic roles for 20 years now and I haven’t seen anybody create as much comedy on their feet as Jason Mantzoukas. The guy is just a torrent of comedy. It’s amazing to watch somebody like that. 

Somebody in the cast who stood out to me in particular was Andy Samberg. He really goes for it as werewolf Benedict Arnold. What was it like to take in that performance? Were your notes always “bigger, bigger, bigger?”

Andy came in with an idea of how he wanted him to sound and he did it perfectly from take one. It was amazing to see somebody do it exactly like you had in your head without actually even asking about it. When people see the movie, a lot of them don’t realize that that’s Andy, because he put it on so well. When you’re directing people who are able to create comedy at such a high level, you kind of just try to hold onto your chair and keep up with them and rewrite as you go. The most fun part of this job, not just for this movie but for everything I do, is sitting with the world’s funniest people and hearing what comes out of their mouth.

I want to ask about the last scene, where characters address America’s original sins in rapid-fire succession, because it seems like it ties the whole thing together. Did you feel like the ending was crucial to the movie?

The ending was extremely important to me and the whole movie is building up to it in a way. To some degree we wanted to make sure that we’re at least attempting to hold everybody accountable and to hold ourselves accountable for all the different problems that we have right now. To do that over the course of the previous 85 minutes, I felt it would grind the story to a halt comedically. I wanted to keep us moving: quick pace, jokes, gags, having fun, turning the brain off, and just enjoying a beer while watching a movie. But that scene is extremely important to the point of the whole movie and the small amount to which we are trying to to hold us accountable for our past.

What did you learn from directing your first feature film? How was it different from your usual experience?

It’s extremely different and I was not under the impression that it would be. I’ve been making adult comedy cartoons for 20 years. I started with the original Adult Swim, the very first year that Adult Swim was on. I’ve been doing this form of this adult cartoon comedy for a long time. And making a movie is incredibly different than making a 15-minute or a 22 or 30-minute show. (With films) you get a lot more time to sit and try to make things funnier, to make more jokes. When you’re on a very tight deadline of episodic television, you kind of have to kick stuff out and move forward. 

With this process, I got to record with all these wonderful, extremely funny people, multiple, multiple, multiple times, and keep reworking the script because we’ve been in the process of making this movie for three years. As opposed to an episode of television, I usually kick that out in three months. Just having that ability of time was one thing. Secondarily, I’ve learned a ton from Lord and Miller. They’re very adamant about characters having heart and relatability and making it so that you want to root for them. If you’re going to invest 90 minutes in something, you better come out thinking that was time well-spent.

Finally, how are things going on Archer season 12?

It’s going great. We’re still all at home working from the pandemic; we have not come back to the office yet. It’s been a logistical challenge but luckily everybody’s working safely, and gainfully employed. We’re extremely thankful for that. The biggest challenge for this season of Archer is just how we are dealing with the character of Malory and Jessica Walter’s passing.

I’m so sorry for your loss. She was an absolute titan.

I’m so sorry for all of our losses. She was a true original, an amazing person. I’m actually starting to tear up just thinking about her. I miss her dearly every day.

America: The Motion Picture is available to stream on Netflix now. Archer season 12 will premiere Wednesday, August 25 at 10 p.m. ET on FXX.

Does the PlayStation Classic’s Lineup Live Up to the Original System’s Legacy?

The console race of the 1990s has reared its head again in recent years. However, this time it’s presented in a miniaturized format. What started off with the now iconic NES Classic from Nintendo soon gave life to a whole range of tiny machines imitating the heavy hitters of days gone by.

Since then, we’ve seen Nintendo jump back into the fray with a rendition of the SNES, SEGA kicking things into high gear with its upcoming tiny Genesis, and even the ’80s-era Commodore 64 getting a bite-sized new lease on life. Of course, with the wheels officially in motion, it was only a matter of time before Sony Interactive Entertainment dipped its toe in the water to bring new life to its oldest gaming conquest: the PlayStation.

“The PlayStation didn’t just feel like a console, it felt like a movement; a gargantuan push forward towards a more advanced gaming world.”

The PlayStation Classic is tasked with carrying the weight of a generation-defining machine on its tiny shoulders. When the original PlayStation launched more than two decades ago, it changed the way we play video games forever. It bravely made the leap from 16-bit gaming to fully fleshed-out 3D experiences, a generational leap the likes of which we’d never seen. It gave birth to a number of titles and characters who have since become household names, and it did it all with a hyperactive edgy overtone that would appeal to players in their teens.

Put quite simply, the original PlayStation was ground-breaking. Its shockwave was felt throughout the gaming world and its effects have spilled over to the subsequent generations of consoles that followed. The PlayStation didn’t just feel like a console, it felt like a movement; a gargantuan push forward towards a more advanced gaming world. The edgy titles and attitude that coincided with it were rebellious in nature, and it genuinely felt like gaming was growing up from its childhood years to embrace a more mature outlook on life.

Is it possible to instill that feeling, that effect, and that attitude into a device that can fit into the palm of your hand, or is the PlayStation Classic doomed to fail? In order to decipher this, we’ve got to take a look back at what the PlayStation really brought to the table, and what games are included in its cute little modern outing.

The PlayStation’s “I-don’t-care” attitude didn’t just come from its completely over-the-top advertising campaigns which embraced the true nature of just how wild the 90s could be. No, instead it was the games that really propelled the machine. Looking back now, more than two decades after the system first exploded onto the screens of our old CRT TVs, there are a number of titles that instantly come to mind because they changed the face of gaming forever.

First and foremost there was the machine’s unofficial mascot, Crash Bandicoot. Crash, like any characters that could be referred to as a mascot at the time, starred in platforming games. Proudly sporting its cartoonish 3D graphics, this anthropomorphic little animal sprinted through busy levels while spinning his foes into oblivion. The fast-paced, reckless nature of the game made it an instant hit and the system followed up with two direct sequels, each of which improved upon the original’s rocky beginnings, and a number of off-shoot titles which saw the cast of the Crash’s universe engaging in go-karting (which is getting its own remaster very soon) and other silly party games.

“The unfortunate truth is that a good chunk of games that would be seen as PlayStation heavy hitters are similarly tied up in this day and age.”

Something about Crash Bandicoot stuck a chord with players and, although he has appeared on Microsoft and Nintendo consoles since, he’s seen as being synonymous with the original PlayStation. Unfortunately though, possibly due to the recently-released Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy, the crazed jeans sporting animal didn’t end up making a triumphant return on the PlayStation Classic.

The unfortunate truth is that a good chunk of games that would be seen as PlayStation heavy hitters are similarly tied up in this day and age. The 1990s’ adorable little dragon, Spyro, for example, has also recently starred in a gorgeously remastered rendition of his original adventures. Old Sir Daniel Fortesque of MediEvil fame will also be seeing a PlayStation 4 remaster in the near future, so that pretty much crosses the concept of his title making an appearance off the list too. The same could be said for fan-favorite Castlevania: Symphony of the Night which was recently included in a downloadable bundle.

Next up is the now iconic Lara Croft. The first Tomb Raider title has aged surprisingly well throughout the years. Overshadowed in many ways by Tomb Raider II, 1996’s original introduced us to a character who dominated the gaming scene for the remainder of the century. Perfectly timed and riding the wave of the Spice Girls’ movement of “girl power,” Lara Croft was a no-nonsense action hero whose ferocious combat skills and agility were surpassed only by her boundless intellect.

Lara Croft quickly became another iconic face of PlayStation, and indeed the face of gaming during that era. She appeared in soft drink advertisements, toured with U2, and made the cover of then-popular magazine The Face, and this was all before Angelina Jolie portrayed her in 2001’s major motion picture adaptation of the franchise (and the accompanying 2018 film starring Alicia Vikander). Bizarrely though, she too seems to be absent from the PlayStation Classic’s lineup, likely because of the recent reboot titles from Square Enix.

“It would be unfair to say that there aren’t any fantastic games pre-installed in the cute little machine.”

The list of classic characters and games that haven’t made the cut for the PlayStation Classic seems to go on and on. Early PlayStation titles such as Loaded would have fit right at home on the bite-sized device, as would the likes of Die Hard Trilogy. Iconic characters such as PaRappa the Rapper and memorable games Pandemonium! didn’t make an appearance either, and neither did any of the entries in PlayStation’s signature futuristic racing franchise, Wipeout.

With all of these games lacking, what exactly does that leave for the PlayStation Classic when it comes to representing the era it came from? It would be unfair to say that there aren’t any fantastic games pre-installed in the cute little machine. Final Fantasy VII, for example, leads the charge and is regarded by many to be one of the greatest games ever created. Tekken 3 is by far the best 3D fighter that the original console had to offer, and it still plays fantastically today. Grand Theft Auto is a fun little title that now serves as an interesting history lesson for fans of the series and Rockstar Games, proving that great things are possible from incredibly humble beginnings. This top-down 2D title laid the groundwork for what was to become one of the most successful franchises of all times. Then there’s the bizarre but charming Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee that certainly deserves a slot, as does the original Destruction Derby for nostalgia’s sake.

To top it off, there’s no denying the sheer power and influence that the original Metal Gear Solid had over gaming as a whole. It integrated cinematic story-telling into video games in a way that we’d never seen before and single-handedly revolutionized the very concept of narratives within games. Again, this is a front-runner on the PlayStation Classic, and rightly so. It has earned its place as one of the system’s greatest and most well-loved titles.

Following these stellar games, though, are some seemingly bizarre choices that tend to miss the mark again and again. Mr. Driller and Super Puzzle Fighter II: Turbo both seem entirely out of place here, almost like last minute choices that simply didn’t pay off: Intelligent Cube also falls under this category. Cool Boarders 2 is a nice addition, but could and should have been swapped out for Tony Hawk: Pro Skater 2, which is superior and infinitely more popular in every way.

“The PlayStation Classic sadly seems like it will go down in history as a misfire.”

None of these titles are bad. They are all decent in their own rights, but they are by no means classic, especially not when compared to heavy hitters such as Tomb Raider, Silent Hill, Medal of Honor, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, Rollcage, Tenchu: Stealth Assassins, Driver, or Dino Crisis. Even choices such as Twisted Metal seem a little unusual considering how badly this particular game has aged. It seems stranger still when you consider that its vastly superior sequel Twisted Metal 2: World Tour still plays brilliantly in 2018.

There is a sea of phenomenal games spread across the original PlayStation’s thick and robust catalog, but it simply seems like all we’ve got here is wave after wave of wasted potential and missed opportunities. What should have been a sure-fire line-up of stellar genre-defining titles wound up being a mishmash of games that might make you think that there was a misunderstanding about the definition of the word “classic.”

The PlayStation Classic sadly seems like it will go down in history as a misfire; a half-cocked attempt to follow in the footsteps of Nintendo’s miniature consoles but without truly knowing what made Sony’s original voyage into the world of gaming magical. Perhaps there are lessons to be learned here, and we’ll see a revised release at some stage in the future. For now, though, the PlayStation Classic seems destined to sit in the shadows of Nintendo’s outings to think about where it went wrong until it eventually drifts into obscurity.

Big data

What is enormous information, at any rate? all things considered, there's the great 3v demonstrate - high volume, high speed and high assortment - that is bandied about regularly. yet, that prevalent, if shapeless, definition doesn't generally clarify the logical advantages give by a major information stage.

David mcjannet, vp of advertising for hortonworks, trusts that a more down to earth depiction is called for, one that clarifies this present reality advantages of huge information.

"Huge information isn't this amorphous thing," mcjannet told informationweek in a telephone meet. "pragmatically, it's tied in with building net-new scientific applications dependent on new sorts of information that (an association) wasn't beforehand following."

Horton works, obviously, has an exceptionally sober minded motivation to instruct the world about enormous information's points of interest. as a noteworthy driver of the hadoop biological system, the palo alto, calif., undertaking programming organization has much to pick up by convincing associations to store and break down enormous measures of information that they may somehow or another overlook, Learn Big Data training in Chennai at Greens Technologys .

Is big data commoditization a real threat? 

So here's an option (yet professional) definition: big information is tied in with "building new scientific applications dependent on new sorts of information, with the end goal to all the more likely serve your clients and drive a superior upper hand," said mcjannet.

This less difficult definition may enable organizations to move "past the more amorphous idea" of huge information, he included.

Every huge datum isn't similar, obviously, so hortonwork has subdivided these cloudy bits into five unmistakable information classifications: web based life; server logs; web clickstream; machine/sensor; and geolocation.

Be that as it may, in what manner can organizations utilize this data?

Take web based life information. organizations are utilizing facebook, twitter and comparable social destinations as "assessment indicators," mcjannet said. a motion picture maker, for example, can utilize this information to track responses to another film that is turning out and enhance a promoting effort dependent via web-based networking media clients' remarks.

Server logs can help framework heads, who mine this information in hadoop to distinguish and respond to essential issues. mcjannet offered this precedent: "on the off chance that i track each and every inbound demand on my site and after that overlay that by geology, i can decide better where my greatest client hotspots are, and where i conceivably have security issues," he said.

Clickstream information is a case of how hadoop gives a moderate method to oversee data that would over-burden a customary information administration framework.

"On the off chance that i could catch clickstream information of the considerable number of snaps on my site, clearly that would top off my database before long. it's the sheer volume of clickstream information that is created," said mcjannet. "on the off chance that i store that information in hadoop ... i can utilize that data to construct an extremely fascinating investigative application."

Machines are a to a great extent undiscovered wellspring of enormous information also.

"Machine (information) is completely one of the greatest generators of information, regardless of whether (from) cooling units, fridges, trucks or homestead apparatus," mcjannet said. "it's detonating as far as the sort of instrumentation that is out there."

With a couple of billion cellphones being used, cell phones have huge potential for information gathering.

"Each time i'm passed from cell tower to cell tower, there's some bit of information that is being produced. it could be utilized on the off chance that somebody needed to assemble a systematic application," noted mcjannet.

Geolocation information is genuinely new, having been constrained to choose aviation and military uses until 10 years prior. today it demonstrates incredible guarantee in business applications.

A trucking organization, for example, could catch geolocation information each 10 to 60 seconds from each one of its vehicles out and about, and store what could add up to petabytes of information.

"Consider what applications you may have the capacity to construct on the off chance that you track all the geo-information related with your tasks, and by what means may you have the capacity to drive insight out of that," said mcjannet.

Can Big Data Be Racist?

Huge data controls the prescient models that can reveal to target you're pregnant before your doctor even knows. it empowers particular divisions of gigantic datasets, similar to the calculation that made the 76,897 miniaturized scale sorts keeping us snared on netflix. what's more, it has enabled us to crowdsource ongoing bits of knowledge, similar to the earth shattering disclosure that americans are similarly quick to #deportbieber as canadians are for us to #keepbieber.

At the end of the day, big data is as of now the best strategy we have for understanding an undeniably mind boggling world. but on the other hand it's blemished, in light of the fact that this information and the choices we make based on it are never totally objective. think about the instance of st. george's hospital medical school, which constructed a big data calculation to mechanize its confirmations procedure. the thought was to decrease fluctuation and increment objectivity, yet rather the school incidentally standardized inclination against ladies and minorities. this happened on the grounds that it was depending on verifiable affirmations information that unduly supported white male competitors. the model did precisely what it should do — and the opposite was expected.

When we decipher social platitudes and generalizations into exactly evident datasets, we bring subjectivity into an order that takes a stab at objectivity. when we pervade our big data experiences with our race-based predispositions, we anticipate our biases onto resulting perceptions. it's unavoidable. so is big data supremacist? the appropriate response is convoluted.

Envision now a big data calculation that methodicallly precludes credit to individuals from claiming shading based on their facebook likes, a training that few fico assessment offices are starting to grasp.

Take, for instance, harvard educator latanya sweeney's disclosure that looks for racially related names were lopsidedly activating focused on advertisements for criminal historical verifications and capture records. the calculation was both uncovering racial predisposition (the hostile advertisements will probably return whether individuals kept on tapping on them) and worsening it (the more individuals saw promotions that proposed dark names were associated with criminal movement, the additionally existing racial bias was fortified).

Envision now a big data calculation that deliberately prevents credit to individuals from securing shading based on their facebook likes, a training that few fico assessment offices are starting to grasp. the prescient model recommending that minority populaces are a higher credit hazard could simply be An impression of the inclination in our general public, similar to the case with st. george's and with sweeney's examination. be that as it may, as advertisers keep searching for a shorthand with which to recognize populace portions, their interest about dark clients is being utilized for purposes as considerate as offering balls and justin timberlake cds, or as terrible as declining access to credit or essential social equality and administrations.

Organizations currently approach immense amounts of unvolunteered statistic information that could be put to such utilize. one broadly detailed precedent is that of atlanta inhabitant kevin johnson, who, notwithstanding his close impeccable fico score, had his credit confine lessened from $10,800 to $3,800 without notice when american express verified that "different clients who have utilized their card at foundations where you as of late shopped have a poor reimbursement history with american express."

As a dark lady, i'm tired of seeing promotions for payday credits and hair relaxer (however i will never feel sick of justin timberlake advertisements).

While amex and different organizations as it don't profess to hold racial predisposition, their information does. okcupid knows your race based on whether you like blazes, the red sox, tom clancy (white) or the bible, playstation and law and order (dark.) so does facebook. what's more, in all likelihood so does each other organization on the planet that is hopped on the big data temporary fad.

This is the reason a few organizations have experienced harsh criticism for cost discrimination — as when staples.com really indicated higher costs on its sites to internet clients from poorer territories. it's the reason, as sites progressively give by and by customized content, the internet can actually appear to be unique relying upon the shade of your skin. what's more, it's the reason, as a dark lady, i'm tired of seeing advertisements for payday credits and hair relaxer (however i will never feel burnt out on justin timberlake promotions).

Huge data gives us the power and the stage to decrease individuals to their measured selves in a way that hasn't been conceivable as of not long ago. it enables us to assist the forces of separation. i'm certain oprah would be excited to realize that she doesn't need to abandon her home with the end goal to be racially profiled.

Amid hurricane sandy, guide specialists could use constant tweets to send assets to territories with the most noteworthy volume of bothered twitter clients. missing from the condition, nonetheless, were those most influenced—the individuals who couldn't tweet since they didn't have portable internet access or control, or either.

Yet, racial profiling isn't the main issue. shouldn't something be said about those individuals whom the big data machine neglects to try and record for? information subordination, an idea presented by scientist jonas lerman, portrays the failure of big data to completely catch those whose information impression is little or nonexistent. these are individuals without cell phones or facebook records or charge cards, who are lopsidedly dark. individuals who are now minimized by society will keep on being underestimated by the models that overlook them. amid hurricane sandy, for instance, help laborers could use continuous tweets to convey assets to regions with the most astounding volume of bothered twitter clients. missing from the condition, nonetheless, were those most influenced—the individuals who couldn't tweet since they didn't have versatile internet access or control, or either.

At last, big data mirrors the bigotry in our general public as well as propagates it. so while it's not intrinsically bigot, big data makes it that significantly less demanding for the general population utilizing it to be.

The numbers give us a reason to quit making inquiries and authorization to fortify generalizations. when we lessen somebody to the entirety of their factual and probabilistic self, we transform them into a social exaggeration that may mirror the weaknesses of our general public superior to any genuine qualities, practices or inclinations.

The incongruity is that big data is a major advance forward, an approach to utilize the present intense innovation to comprehend marvels that we would have totally missed yesterday. be that as it may, rather we might do the polar opposite: utilizing these ground-breaking prescient models to propagate racial predisposition.
