    Joker (2019 Film) - Wikipedia

    Joker (2019 film) - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joker_(2019_film) Joker (2019 film) Joker is a 2019 American psychological thriller film directed by Todd Joker Phillips, who co-wrote the screenplay with Scott Silver. The film, based on DC Comics characters, stars Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker. An origin story set in 1981, the film follows Arthur Fleck, a failed stand-up comedian who turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City. Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz, Frances Conroy, Brett Cullen, Glenn Fleshler, Bill Camp, Shea Whigham, and Marc Maron appear in supporting roles. Joker was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, DC Films, and Joint Effort in association with Bron Creative and Village Roadshow Pictures, and distributed by Warner Bros. Phillips conceived Joker in 2016 and wrote the script with Silver throughout 2017. The two were inspired by 1970s character studies and the films of Martin Scorsese, who was initially attached to the project as a producer. The graphic novel Batman: The Killing Joke (1988) was the basis for the premise, but Phillips and Silver otherwise did not look to specific comics for inspiration. Phoenix became attached in February 2018 and was cast that July, while the majority of the cast signed on by August. Theatrical release poster Principal photography took place in New York City, Jersey City, and Newark, from September to December 2018. It is the first live-action Directed by Todd Phillips theatrical Batman film to receive an R-rating from the Motion Picture Produced by Todd Phillips Association of America, due to its violent and disturbing content.

McAskill, La Salle University ([email protected]) W2835 WATCHMEN (USA, 2009) Credits: director, Zack Snyder ; writers, David Hayter, Alex Tse ; graphic novel, Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons. Cast: Malin Akerman, Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Jackie Earle Haley, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Patrick Wilson, Carla Gugino. Summary: Science fiction/superhero film based on the graphic novel written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons. Set in an alternative 1985 US governed by Richard Nixon with occasional flashbacks to prior events. Masked superheroes were a normal part of American life through the 1960s. In Vietnam, the Comedian (Morgan) wields a flame thrower and engages in ground combat operations until the radioactive blue giant Dr. Manhattan (Crudup) arrives, at the behest of President Nixon, and ends the war in a matter of weeks. A formation of surrendering Viet Cong bow down to the Dr. like a god. In a Saigon bar shortly thereafter, the Comedian is confronted by his pregnant Vietnamese mistress about the future of their unborn child and he calmly shoots her. After Vietnam, masked superheroes were forced into retirement. However, as Cold War tensions between the US and the Soviet Union begin to rise, a washed up but no less determined masked vigilante named Rorschach (Haley) discovers a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As Rorschach and his small group of retired superheroes investigate, they discover a deeper conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future.

I thank her for her dedication and contributions to the company and wish her the very best in what I know will be an exciting next chapter."

DOI: 10.5294/pacla.2017.20.3.7 Abstract Telefantasy series Torchwood (2006–2011, multiple production partners) was industrially and paratextually positioned as being Welsh, despite its frequent status as an international co-production. When, for series 4 (sub- titled Miracle Day, much as the miniseries produced as series 3 was subti- tled Children of Earth), the production (and diegesis) moved primarily to the United States as a co-production between BBC Worldwide and Amer- ican premium cable broadcaster Starz, fan response was negative from the announcement, with the series being termed Americanised in popular and academic discourse. This study, drawn from my doctoral research, which interrogates all of these assumptions via textual, industrial/contextual and audience analysis focusing upon ideological, aesthetic and interpretations of national identity representation, focuses upon the interactions between fan cultural capital and national cultural capital and how those interactions impact others of the myriad of reasons why the (re)glocalisation failed. It finds that, in part due to the competing public service and commercial ide- ologies of the BBC, Torchwood was a glocalised text from the beginning, de- spite its positioning as Welsh, which then became glocalised again in series 4.
