Anniversary Tournament

Last year for Doctor Who's anniversary I ran a tournament between Doctor Who stories, and I wanted to so something different again this year. A tournament between real people important to the history of Doctor Who, actors, writers, producers, directors, composers, production designers. Technically it'll be a tournament for the most infuential person to Doctor Who and its development over the years, but really I want it to be a celebration of all of these people, and not just the winner.

To that end, the nomination form, you can also submit nominations normally, ie sending me an ask or replying to this post, however I won't be accepting propaganda through those methods.

I'm thinking I'll close nominations on the 18th of November, that might change but probably not by much

On the 19th of November 2024, the teaser trailer for the live action 'How To Train Your Dragon' was released!

It is based on the 2010 Dreamwork's computer animated movie of the same name and on the 2003 novel by Cressida Cowell.

The live action How To Train Your Dragon is directed by Dean Deblois, who also directed the original animated trilogy. Filming took place in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

It is being produced by DreamWorks' Animation and Marc Platt Productions. It will be distributed by Universal Pictures.

London based VFX studio Framestore are creating the visual effects.

It has also been designed for the IMAX and RealD 3D cinema experience.

This trailer offers a sneak peek into the live action set to be released in June 2025, fifteen years after the animated classic was released.

It features Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, Stoick the Vast and of course, Toothless the Night Fury dragon!

A first look video has also been released alongside the trailer.

This reveals why a live action version was released and also offers a glimpse of the Viking training academy and Astrid Hofferson.

For a list of cast and crew see:

Wiki link:

The screenshots featured are from the teaser and the first look videos.

I think it looks brilliant and can't wait to see it in the Reel Cinema in Farnham when it is released!

I dont think the problem with the ronnie spector film isnt the lack of pull from zendaya. Marc Platt is also a producer and he has a ton of pull in the industry coupled with the fact that A24 is already pegged as a distributor. I think the problem is getting the right team in place and not having something written in addition to zendaya just being busy with euphoria, spiderman and dune and the recent passing of ronnie spector they may have temporarily shelved it.

Though I think once euphoria is done ( i think season 3 is the final season) I think she'll finally be able to do some extensive pre production with ronnie spector and I think late 2025 or 2026 filming is nost relaistic (unless she has another movie in the pipeline before then)

Thank you Anon 😊

Le nouveau Blanche-Neige de Disney est enfin sorti !

La neige a pris la vase.

La nouvelle Blanche-Neige de Disney a bronzé.

C’est qu’au fond, pour la direction de Disney, ce conte populaire allemand était trop blanc, justement.

Cette nouvelle production est à mettre au crédit du président des Studios Disney, le juif Alan Bergman.

Alan Bergman

Mais c’est aussi grâce à Bob Iger, nouveau dirigeant de Disney Company qui chapeaute les studios Disney.

Il est accidentellement juif.

Bob Iger

Pour en revenir au film, c’est produit par Marc Platt.

Lui aussi est juif.

Marc Platt

Pour le film, en ces temps de montée de l’antisémitisme, il fallait maintenir le cap et envoyer un signal fort au public mondial.

C’est Gal Gadot, venue de Tel Aviv, qui incarnera la reine maléfique (un rôle bien choisi).

Tout cela sent bon le folklore germanique des frères Grimm.

Pour ceux des Blancs qui souhaitent que leurs enfants échappent au poison du yahvisme, il reste la version originale de 1937 de Walt Disney, l’un des films préférés d’Adolf Hitler. Vous pouvez le trouver sans difficulté en streaming ou en DVD.

Le frère de Walt, Roy, s’était personnellement rendu en Allemagne pour y rencontrer Josef Goebbels afin d’organiser sa diffusion dans le Reich.

According to Variety, Universal Pictures will be producing a film adaptation of SEGA’s Shinobi and the studio has enlisted “Extraction” filmmaker Sam Hargrave and producer Marc Platt to adapt the ninja action-packed franchise for the big screen.

Ken Kobayashi, known for his work on “Sunny” and “Move On”, will be writing the screenplay for “Shinobi.” Platt and Adam Siegel will produce through Marc Platt Productions. Dmitri M. Johnson will produce through Story Kitchen. Toru Nakahara will produce through Sega.

Mike Goldberg will executive produce alongside co-producer Timothy I. Stevenson. Universal’s senior VP of production development Ryan Jones and director of production development Christine Sun will oversee the project for the studio.

SEGA has been on a roll with film and tv adaptations as of late along with the recent announcement of returning IPs currently in development. This is a great way to introduce their retro titles to a newer audience.

Emma Stone stars as the title character, with Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, Emily Beecham, Kirby Howell-Baptiste and Mark Strong in supporting roles. Set in London during the punk rock movement of the 1970s, the film revolves around Estella Miller, an aspiring fashion designer, as she explores the path that led her to become a notorious up-and-coming fashion designer known as Cruella de Vil.

i know this isn't the most important thing about maha dakhil's situation with caa, but i always found lovely how much maha supported simone even if she wasn't her agent. maybe as one of the few powerful non-white women behind the scene in hollywood, she felt a kinship to simone.

what has happened recently shows how fragile non-white people's positions in the industry actually are anyway, especially women.

how media has been covering the firing of melissa also feels to me like them trying to scare people off to silence. a variety article mentioned that marc platt tried to get the black (and jewish) director boots riley fired from wme for being antizionist and saying that idf movie that gal gadot was sponsoring should be boycotted. he didn't get him fired and boots said that he also thought it was just used to scare people https://twitter.com/BootsRiley/status/1727189361656266850?t=kEx6toyf3-QVF05MExzduA&s=19

Maha supporting Simone 🥺

Hollywood needs to burn to the ground, you know it’s bad when trash like Tom Cruise steps out to say what’s going on is beyond all reason

Seeing the actress from scream being labelled as antisemitic by a production company when she was very inclusive of Jewish voices in all her posts is not surprising, Hollywood is a tool to spread Israeli propaganda 🤡
