History of the Blue Whale King, Part I (66,041,000 BC)

A small, rodent-like mammal scurries among the shrubs in a primeval forest, unnoticed by the giant reptiles roaming nearby. An insignificant creature, but with grandiose dreams.

I want to be beautiful.

The creature is not much to look at.

I want to be powerful.

He lacks both strength and influence.

I want to be fast.

He relies on stealth to evade predatory reptiles, he stands no chance of outrunning them.

I want to be graceful.

At least he's not clumsy, but he holds no records here either.

I want to be magnificent.

Ditto for points 1 and 3.

But most of all...

I want to be

BIG.

Perhaps the most laughable dream of all.

The sky lights up, and keeps getting brighter. Seemingly without warning, it becomes unbearable, and the forest bursts into flames. The small creature scurries into the ground, protected by the soil while the giant reptiles burn alive. Hours later, rocks, ash, and molten debris rain from the sky, fallout from the distant explosion. An unlikely cosmic collision has altered the course of history.

The tiny mammal survives the disaster. The giant reptiles do not. But as he scurries among their bones for scraps of food, a strange substance from outer space attaches to his soul. When his body eventually dies, his being persists, and moves to a new body. He has a chance to fulfill his dreams.

Sosyal Medya Hakkında İzlemeniz Gereken En İyi 10 Film

Sosyal Medya Hakkında İzlemeniz Gereken En İyi 10 Film

Sosyal medya 21. yüzyıl itibariyle günlük hayatımızın en vazgeçilmez alanlarından biri olmaya başladı. Öyle ki uyandığımızda, sabah kahvemizi hazırlarken, iş arasında hatta yemek yerken bile sosyal medyada aktif durumdayız. Sadece pasif olarak takip etmekle kalmıyor aynı zamanda hepimiz çılgınlar gibi içerik üretiyoruz. Bu yazı bile sosyal medyada oluşturulan bir içerik niteliğine sahip. Kültürel, bilgilendirici yazıların dışında oldukça zararlı, pratik ya da yararlı içerikler de bulunabilir. Güncel konular toplumsal olgularla yakından ilgilenen hiçbir sanatçının gözünden kaçmaz ve kaçmıyor da. Yönetmenler hayatımızdaki birçok vazgeçilmez noktayı konu aldığı gibi sosyal medyayı da sıklıkla işliyor, beyaz perde de tekrar ve tekrar bize sunuyorlar. Bu yazıda da sosyal medyayı anlatan ve bütün yönleriyle yüzümüze çarpan filmleri sıralayacağız.

Mainstream

Başrollerinde Maya Hawke ve Andrew Garfield’in oynadığı “sanat yapmak mı istiyorsun yoksa yüzü bile olmayan yabancılardan onay mı almak istiyorsun?” sorusu etrafında dönen bir film. Frankie (Maya Hawke) Youtube platformunda estetik videolar paylaşan bir kızdır. Bir video çekimi sırasında hippi olan, kafasına buyruk davranan Link (Andrew Garfield) ile tanışır. Link’i çektiği videosunun patlaması üzerine ikili bir araya gelir ve düzenli olarak değişik videolar çekmeye başlarlar. Çok geçmeden kanalın internette popüler olmasıyla karakterlerin kişiliklerinden ve asıl amaçlarından uzaklaşmasına, yapmayacakları şeyleri popülarite uğruna yapmaya başlamalarına neden olur.

Nerve

Film, çevrimiçi bir doğruluk ve cesaret oyununu konu alır fakat oyuncuların tek seçeneği cesarettir. Oyunda “izleyiciler” ve “oyuncular” yer alır. Venus (Emily Maede) oyunda pasif izleyicilerden biridir. Arkadaşlarının cesaretlendirmesiyle “oyuncular”dan biri olur. Oyuncular para karşılığında aktif izleyicilerin dediği her şeyi yapmak zorundadır, aksi takdirde hem parasını hem de oyunu kaybederler. Yeni oyuncu olan Venus’e beğendiği bir erkeği 5 saniye öpmesi karşılığında 100 dolar teklif edilir. Böylece Ian (Dav Franco) adlı başka bir oyuncuyu öpmesiyle ikili çevrimiçi oyunda viral olur. Çifte görevler geldikçe Venus oyunun içine iyice dalar, özel hayatının ihlal edilişini önleyemez.

A Simple Favor

Başrollerinde iki başarılı oyuncunun olduğu (Anna Kendrick ve Blake Lively) suç / komedi filmi Darcy Bell’ in aynı adlı kitabının uyarlamasıdır. Stephanie (Anna Kendrick) ve Emily (Blake Lively) kısa süredir tanışmış ve arkadaş olan iki annedir. Hikaye, yemek vloggerlıği yapan Stephanie’nin kanalında son 5 gündür kayıp olan Emily hakkında açıklama yapmasıyla başlar. Yoğun bir iş kadını olan Emily arkadaşına çocuğunu anaokulundan almasını rica eder. Bu küçük ricadan sonra Emily ortadan kaybolur. Stephanie olayın peşini bırakmaz, sevgili arkadaşını bulmak için takipçilerini bile işin içine karıştırır. Asıl sıkıntılar Emily bulunduğunda başlar. Sosyal medyanın ironik yanlarına göndermeler yapan film hem eğlendiren hem de izleyiciyi ekrana bağlayan bir yapıt.

Spree

Kurt ne yaparsa yapsın sosyal medyada videolarıyla ünlü olamayan bir gençtir. Kurt (Joe Keery) hayattaki değerinin ne kadar beğeni ve takipçi olduğunla ilgili olduğunu düşünmektedir. Buna rağmen hangi konuda vlog çekerse çeksin bir türlü takipçi veya beğeni alamamıştır. Sonunda bir araba alarak ride-sharing şakaları paylaşmaya başlar. Kurt bazı yolculara şaka yapar ve sadece “kötü” insanları zehirler; bunlar arasında ırkçılar, kadın düşmanları ve sinir bozucu parti kızları vardır. Bu tür çekimler yapmasına rağmen hala yeterince ünlenemeyen Kurt gittikçe daha kötü yollara başvurur.

#blue_whale

Film, yıllar önce özellikle ebeveynleri korkutan, çocukları intihara sürükleyen gerçek hayat ile ilişkili bir sosyal oyun olan mavi balinayı konu alır. Dana, neşeli kardeşinin intiharından sonra neden hayatına son verdiğini bulmak için internet geçmişine bakar. Sonucunda gençleri 50 günde 50 görev verip kendilerine zarar vermelerini sağlayan kötücül sanal bir oyun bulur. Oyun birinci aşamasında kurbanları ailelerinden ayırır, gittikçe gençleri dönülmez bir noktaya doğru sürükler. Cevaplara aç olan Dana gizli bir sanal dünyaya giriş yapar. Oyuna girmesiyle Dana ve yakınları hayatı tehlikeye maruz kalacaktır.

The Social Network

Quentiene Tarantino’dan bir çok övgü alan film; Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake ve Armie Hammer gibi oyuncuların oynadığı David Fincher’ın yönettiği Sosyal Ağ birçok ödül aldı. Mark Zuckerberg’in hepimiz bildiği Facebook platformunu bulmasını konu alan aslında biyografik bir film. Her şey Mark’ın (Jesse Eisenberg) kız arkadaşıyla ayrıldıktan sonra eve sarhoş dönmesiyle başlar. Mark üniversitenin veri tabanına sızarak Harvard’daki kız öğrencilerin bilgilerini alır ve Facemash’i oluşturur. Facemash platformunda kız öğrencileri ikili karşılaştırıp bir popülarite testi yapılması sağlanmaktadır. Dahice bir buluş olsa da üniversite Mark’ı disipline verir. Yeteneğinin farkına varan Winklevoss ikizleri ve yakın arkadaşı Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield) birlikte çalışmayı teklif etse de Mark tek başına çalışmayı aklına koymuştur. Napster kurucu Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake) ile tanışır ve Facebook sitesini sonunda kurar. Başta sadece Harvard öğrencilerine açık olan site sonunda diğer üniversitelere de yayılır. Kazandığı bu popülerlikten sonra Winklevoss ikizleri ve Eduardo Mark’ın açtığı davalarla film boyunca mücadele edecektir.

The Hater

Bu kadar Amerikan filminden sonra karşımızda Polonya’dan dikkat çeken bir film var. Jan Komasa birçok filmin aksine sosyal medya kurbanına değil, suçluya odaklanır. Film, Gabi ve onun zengin ailesine kafayı takan Tomek’i konu alıyor. Tomek, bir pazarlama ajansında çalışmaya başlar ve kendini göstermek için bir politikacının imajını yok etme görevini alır. Film bu süreçte Tomek’in sosyal medya üzerinde nasıl dezenformasyonu nasıl kullandığını ve Gabi’yle olan ilişkisini mercek altına alıyor.

The Circle

İnternet üzerinden The Circle isimli bir sitede işe giren genç bir kadın (Emma Watson) işi gereği kullanıcıların e-posta adreslerini, sosyal medya hesaplarını, banka hesaplarını birbirine bağlarken, kullanıcıların evrensel işletim sistemlerini de satın alıyor. Bu bağlamda Eggers’ın kitabı; kişisel bilgilerin toplandığı, ayıklandığı, üzerinden para kazanıldığı dahası gözetleme suretiyle mahremiyetin kullanılamaz hale getirildiği dijital dünyanın vahametini gözler önüne seren modern bir polisiyeye dönüşüyor.

Eighth Grade

Neredeyse hiçbirimizin 8. sınıfı mükemmel geçmemiştir, Kayla’da 8. sınıfı sosyal medyanın da etkisiyle gittikçe karmaşıklaşan gençlerden birisi. Burnham, ergenliğin utanç verici, korkunç yanlarını; Kayla (Elsie Fisher) adlı sessiz ve anksiyete sorunları yaşayan bir kız aracılığıyla yansıtır. Kayla’nın çok arkadaşı yoktur, sosyalleşmek yerine sosyal platformlara kendisi öyle olmasa bile popüler, havalı ve sevilen biri olmakla ilgili içerikler yükler. Sosyal medya herkese yaptığı gibi Kayla’yı da çabucak büyümeye zorlayacaktır. Kayla sosyalleşmek için okulun son bir haftasında yaşıtlarıyla daha fazla sorunlar yaşamaya başlayacaktır.

Searching

David Kim’in (John Cho) 16 yaşındaki kızı Margot (Michelle La) birdenbire ortadan kaybolmuştur. Polis babadan da soruşturmanın ilerlemesi için yardım ister, böylece David kızının Tumblr, Venmo gibi sosyal medya hesaplarına, mesaj geçmişine bir şeyler bulmak umuduyla göz gezdirir. Kızı hakkında bir sürü bilmediği şey öğrendikçe, kızının kaybolmasıyla hayatındaki olayların ve kişilerin arasında bağlantılar kurar. Chaganty, filmin çekimlerini webcam üzerinden işler. Böylece filmde sosyal medyanın baskıcı varlığını belli eder.

Różowa panda

Pewnie słyszeliście już o akcji “niebieski wieloryb”, nie popieram jej. Na szczęście powstała druga, odwrotna akcja o nazwie “Różowa panda”.

Akcja “Różowa panda” plaga na tym, że przez 50 dni codziennie “podopieczny” wykonuje POZYTYWNE zadania od “opiekuna”, które mają uczynić jego świat lepszym. Ideą tej gry jest pomoc innym, motywowanie ich, sprawianie by znów zobaczyli świat w kolorze. Może ta akcja nie uratuje każdego, może nie każdemu pomoże, ale “nie od razu Rzym zbudowano”. Trzeba myśleć pozytywnie.

Zapraszam wszystkich chętnych do udziału ^^ Chętnie zostanę opiekunem, napiszcie do mnie w wiadomości, zapytaniu lub komentarzu,  napewno się odezwę 😇

Screamfest Horror Film Festival Announces Initial Lineup for 21st Edition

Screamfest® Horror Film Festival, the largest and longest-running horror film festival in the United States, announced their first-wave lineup of competitive features and shorts for its 21st edition. Running October 12th through 21st at the TCL Chinese Theater, Screamfest® welcomes audiences back to the big screen for a collective experience they won’t soon forget. Tickets can be purchased here: https://screamfestla.com

The Retaliators will open Screamfest® LA on October 12th for its North American premiere with a red carpet prior to the screening. The film follows an upstanding pastor who uncovers a dark and twisted underworld as he searches for answers surrounding his daughter's brutal murder. Directed by Bridget Smith and Samuel Gonzalez Jr. and written by the Geare brothers, The Retaliators also features a high-octane original soundtrack and cameos from some of the biggest names in rock music, including Five Finger Death Punch, Tommy Lee, Papa Roach, The Hu, Ice Nine Kills, Escape The Fate, and more appear on screen. Marc Menchaca (Ozark), Michael Lombardi (Rescue Me), and Joseph Gatt (Game of Thrones) star in this horror-thriller which reveals a game of revenge played using a new set of rules.

Considered the "Sundance of Horror," Screamfest® is proud to showcase new work from independent filmmakers from across the globe. Highlights from this year’s program include the World Premieres of Father of Flies, the haunting tale of family life and the supernatural and Teddy Grennan’s Wicked Games where a long weekend at a country estate is turned into a nightmare when a group of masked intruders invades the property. Little do they know one guest has a surprise for them.

Four films will be making their North American debuts at the festival. In addition to The Retaliators, Richard Waters’s dark folk horror Bring Out The Fear traps its protagonists in an unsolvable maze where a sinister presence awaits; Clare Foley stars in the sci-fi horror The Changed where an alien presence takes possession of the hearts and minds of her city; and Isolation depicts nine tales of terror which are woven together as remote people work to survive an increasingly deadly outbreak.

US premieres at the festival include Russia’s #Blue_Whale produced by Timur Bekmambetov, which follows Dana as she works to uncover the truth behind her sister’s suicide; Argentina’s fantasy horror film Nocturna: Side A- The Great Old Man’s Night which depicts one old man’s journey to rethink his past and present and question his reality; and Kratt by Rasmus Berivoo in which children stumble upon an instruction manual to create a supernatural being.

West Coast premieres at the festival include a joint production between the US, Mexico, and Venezuela, Exorcism of God which follows an American priest working in Mexico who, due to a botched exorcism, carries a dark secret with him; hailing from Ireland, Let the Wrong One In dives into the complications of family ties when a vampire is discovered in the family; Erik Bloomquist follows twins who spend a night at a remote inn to investigate their missing father in Night at the Eagle Inn; North American distribution rights to the Argentinian The Returned (Los Que Vuelven) - which follows a woman in 1919 prays to a mythical deity to resurrect her stillborn son - were acquired in a new venture between Peter Block of A Bigger Boat and Seth Nagel, Scott Einbinder and Garrick Dion of 5X Media; What Josiah Saw explores a farmhouse haunted by the past; Alone With You stars Emily Bennett, Emma Myles, and fan-favorite Barbara Crampton in a twisted tale of memory and horror unfolding over a romantic homecoming for a distant girlfriend; and When I Consume You by Perry Blackshear where two siblings get more than they bargained for when hunting a shadowy stalker.

The festival will also feature a Special Presentation of Daniel Farrands’s Aileen Wuornos: American Boogeyman starring Peyton List and Lydia Hearst, which follows the notorious killer through a little known chapter of her life in Deland, Florida.

“After a challenging year for cinema, we are excited to return to our home at the TCL Chinese Theatre for our latest lineup of frights,'' says festival founder Rachel Belofsky. “While last year’s drive-ins allowed us to continue to celebrate horror films as a community, we have missed the magic of the traditional theatrical experience.”

Formed in August 2001 by film producer Rachel Belofsky, Screamfest Horror Film Festival is a female-run 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that gives filmmakers and screenwriters in the horror and science fiction genres a venue to have their work showcased in the film industry.
