Orientadora: Profª. Dra. Gabriela Borges Martins Caravela PPGCOM/UFJF Fevereiro de 2017 AGRADECIMENTOS Esse trabalho é norteado por desafios e um deles é encontrar uma forma de agradecer a minha orientadora, a professora Gabriela Borges, por todo o aprendizado ao longo desses anos. Entretanto, qualquer agradecimento feito aqui será ínfimo perto da sua importância na minha trajetória. Obrigada por em 2013, durante uma aula da especialização em Jornalismo Multiplataforma, ter me perguntado se eu gostaria de fazer mestrado e desde então ter estado ao meu lado. Obrigada pela confiança depositada em cada projeto, é sempre uma honra poder fazer parte das suas pesquisas e dos seus cronogramas que na hora parecem impossíveis de serem cumprimos, mas que no final sempre dão certo. Obrigada por toda generosidade com que conduziu não só essa dissertação, mas cada pesquisa que fizemos juntas (eu vou sentir saudades de falar no plural). Obrigada pelo incentivo e por acreditar que tudo isso seria possível desde o início. Obrigada por mostrar que o conhecimento é sempre construído com a ajuda do outro e que o aprendizado é constante. Serei sempre grata por tudo! À professora Soraya Ferreira por todo o aprendizado, carinho, abraços apertados e pelas digressões.

This time would prove different. In previous years, I attempted to get a photo op with some of my favorite celebrities, but typically losing out to bad timing.

  • The Complete X-Files Ebook
    THE COMPLETE X-FILES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Chris Knowles,Matt Hurwitz | 224 pages | 23 Sep 2016 | Titan Books Ltd | 9781785654336 | English | London, United Kingdom The Complete X-Files PDF Book In one of the most tongue in cheek, unusual episodes of the series, Scully consults with a Truman Capote-like novelist who wants to write "non- fiction science fiction" based around an unusual x-file, giving an outsider's perspective to a case. You may not need files for most quick fixes. It's an unnerving, calculating episode, where the mere appearance of Modell onscreen spells very bad thing. There's also a lot of heart in the episode, with Boyle portraying a sensitive, gruff loner dealing with the worst of curses. The episode seems to be heavily influenced by the works of H. Essentially, the episode is about the government using television signals to drive people to madness. This not only makes filing faster but makes it much easier to find documents afterward. An FBI manhunt ensues, with agents in pursuit of an antagonist that can alter their very perceptions of reality. The beauty of customizing your filing system this way is that it can always be further subdivided and organized if you need to. This grisly, nightmare-inducing episode about an inbred family of killers was so terrifying and controversial that Fox famously decreed that it would never be aired again after its initial broadcast prompted a flood of complaints from concerned viewers. I could stop at that as a reason to watch, but there's more. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

  • Transcript of the Truth Is out There
    1 You’re listening to Imaginary Worlds, a show about how we create them and why we suspend our disbelief. I’m Eric Molinsky. There are two ways to go when extending a franchise – reboots, or revivals. I’m a sucker for the picking up where we left off – even if it doesn’t work a lot of the time because after so many years, the actors can’t relate to their characters anymore or the zeitgeist has moved on. But I just love the idea that these fictional characters are still going about their lives even while we’re not watching them. And so I will tune in with cautious optimism when The X-Files resumes for a limited run this winter. CLIP: X-FILES At its height, The X-Files averaged 20 million viewers a week – a huge number even before TV got fractured. I was so obsessed with the show, I had action figures of Mulder and Scully on my windowsill, donning little FBI badges, plastic guns and flashlights. In case you never watched the show -- Fox Mulder and Dana Scully were FBI agents assigned to paranormal cases. They were also on an epic quest to unravel a conspiracy between aliens and a small group of powerful men that were quietly preparing the human race for colonization. Mulder was believed in every supernatural phenomenon. Scully was the skeptic. But I wasn’t a fan to the end. David Duchovny left after seven seasons, and I thought they should’ve wrapped it up but they kept going with new actors.

    THE X FILES FADE IN: EXT. STREET - DAY A typically all-American, white-picket-fence neighbourhood; all angular set houses, neatly trimmed gardens, leafy trees hanging down. HAGERSTOWN, MARYLAND 3:43pm A young BOY (around eleven years old, tall, dark hair, innocent face) cycles down the sidewalk. He passes an elderly NEIGHBOUR mowing the lawn. BOY Hi, Mr. Silversteen! The old neighbour - MR. SILVERSTEEN - smiles and waves back at him, saying hello but it can’t be heard for the mower. The pleasant Boy, full of life, cycles on before turning into the driveway of a house holding a mailbox marked: ‘FRIEDMAN’. The garage is open and the Boy rides it inside, leaping off the top and jogging deeper into the house-- INT. FRIEDMAN RESIDENCE - CONTINUOUS --running immediately into a pair of TODDLERS, a BOY and GIRL, running around the house screaming and chasing each other. MRS. FRIEDMAN (O.C.) (shouts) Will you two be careful?! You’ll hurt yourselves! Moving past them, grinning, the Boy moves through the house - passing a picture of good old Jesus Christ on the wall. BOY Hey Mom. MRS. FRIEDMAN (O.C.) Hey honey, I’m in the kitchen. BOY Just going to the bathroom. MRS. FRIEDMAN (O.C.) Don’t be long, supper’s on the table. Racing up the stairs, the Boy hears his mother once again call the Toddlers - still running about, screaming. 2. INT. UPSTAIRS LANDING - MOMENTS LATER The toilet flushes and the Boy emerges from the bathroom, after briefly drying his hands on a towel. He moves to the stairs--until he begins to hear a BABY crying from one of the upstairs bedrooms.

  • 4.5.1 Los Abducidos: El Duro Retorno En Expediente X Se Duda De Si Las
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de Documents de la UAB 4.5.1 Los abducidos: El duro retorno En Expediente X se duda de si las abducciones son obra de humanos o de extraterrestres por lo menos hasta el momento en que Mulder es abducido al final de la Temporada 7. La duda hace que el encuentro con otras personas que dicen haber sido abducidas siempre tenga relevancia para Mulder, Scully o ambos, como se puede ver con claridad en el caso de Cassandra Spender. Hasta que él mismo es abducido se da la paradójica situación de que quien cree en la posibilidad de la abducción es él mientras que Scully, abducida en la Temporada 2, siempre duda de quién la secuestró, convenciéndose de que los extraterrestres son responsables sólo cuando su compañero desaparece (y no necesariamente en referencia a su propio rapto). En cualquier caso poco importa en el fondo si el abducido ha sido víctima de sus congéneres humanos o de alienígenas porque en todos los casos él o ella cree –con la singular excepción de Scully– que sus raptores no son de este mundo. Como Leslie Jones nos recuerda, las historias de abducción de la vida real que han inspirado este aspecto de Expediente X “expresan una nueva creencia, tal vez un nuevo temor: a través de la experimentación sin emociones realizada por los alienígenas usando cuerpos humanos adquiridos por la fuerza, se demuestra que el hombre pertenece a la naturaleza, mientras que los extraterrestres habitan una especie de supercultura.” (Jones 94).
