  • 5 Things You Need to Know Before You
    FRIDAY 03 JULY, 2015 ne of the most famous lines uttered by Arnold Schwarzenegger’s murder-powered cyborg is “I’ll be Oback.” And on July 1, the T-800 will once again be true to his word when “Terminator: Genisys” hits theaters. The fifth “Terminator” movie aims to robo-punch you right in the nos- talgia center, much like “Jurassic World” did, with its twisty, time-travel story that pays homage to the franchise’s first two films (while completely, and wisely, ignoring the existence of meh entries “Rise of the Machines” and “Salvation.”) To pre- pare you for another trip to the land of Skynet, here are all the things you need to know about “Genisys,” which picks up where James Cameron’s original 1984 film left off. 1. It’s a Reboot...ish After “Batman Begins,” the word “reboot” became the hottest phrase in Hollywood. And “Terminator: Genisys” is the latest product of that craze. Jason Clarke plays John Connor, a character essayed, in various points in the franchise, by Edward Furlong (in “Terminator 2: Judgment Day”), Nick Stahl in “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines,” Thomas Dekker in the “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” television series and Christian Bale in “Terminator: Salvation.” Emilia Clarke, from “Game of Thrones,” plays Sarah Connor, a character most famously played by Linda Hamilton on the big screen, and then later by Lena Headey on the small screen in “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.” Jai Courtney plays Kyle Reese, played by Michael Biehn in “Terminator” and in a deleted scene from “T2.” Most puzzling, South Korean dreamboat Lee Byung-hun plays the T-1000, a character origi- nally portrayed by Robert Patrick in “T2.” But Schwarzenegger remains, as a variation on his original Terminator character.

Afterwards, here are some discussion questions that might help you to engage with others on the topics from the film. Enjoy the time engaging with the film, your faith and friends. F i l m S y n o p s i s BContinuing on from the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice narrative, the world is reeling from the death of Superman. Without the Man of Steel, the world leaders are concerned that the metahuman threat puts the human race at risk. The answer to this problem comes from US agent and metahuman expert Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) who puts forward her Suicide Squad project. The concept is bringing together some of the world’s worst villains, manipulating them to go against their own personal interests and using them to keep the rest of the meta-humans in check. With the assistance of super soldier Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), they work to motivate Deadshot (Will Smith), Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Boomerang (Jai Courtney), Diablo (Jay Hernandez) and Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) to do these high-risk missions for the sake of the greater good. Once the brutish bunch is reluctantly recruited, they are sent on their inaugural mission. It does not take too long for the team to realise that this battle is not what they were expecting. This mission eventually contains personal aspects that will affect all of them. This Suicide Squad must determine what their true motivations are to serve and if it is all worth the risk D i s c u s s i o n p o i n t s f o r R e e l D i a l o g u e 1 .

  • Psychoanalytic and Cognitivist Dramas in Contemporary Science Fiction Films
    Psychoanalytic and cognitivist dramas in contemporary Science Fiction films Robert Geal University of Wolverhampton Abstract | Contemporary Science Fiction films engage audiences in numerous dramatic ways. This diversity can problematize academic approaches to cinema which tend to encourage specific monolithic interpretations of film that stress certain dramatic contexts at the expense of others. A critic’s a priori suppositions may dictate the ways in which any given film is interpreted. In particular, the still unresolved conflict between psychoanalytic and cognitivist approaches to film (in which filmmakers and spectators are understood either as unconscious subjects of ideology, or as rational independent agents) means that there can be little agreement about film’s potential effects. This essay explores how recent Science Fiction films such as Godzilla (2014) and Terminator Genisys (2015) exploit both of these theoretical hermeneutic contexts. They manipulate, both consciously and unconsciously, dramatic pleasures that proponents of psychoanalysis and cognitivism traditionally think of as being mutually exclusive. They do this, furthermore, using the same filmmaking techniques in a symbiotic manner. As such, the Science Fiction blockbuster demonstrates the ways in which film can omnivorously utilise whichever aesthetic, ideological and dramatic tools are available to elicit diverse audience responses. Keywords | Theory, Blockbuster, Spectacle, Psychoanalysis, Cognitivism Resumo | ** Palavras Chave | ** Contemporary Science Fiction blockbusters manipulate audiences with highly flexible combinations of different dramatic contexts. It is now perhaps a truism that these films often feature, and appeal to, multiple genders in a manner very different to earlier examples of the genre (Tasker), despite accusations that these films frequently perpetuate atavistic gender conventions (King and Krzywinska 37-43).

  • Movie Review: ‘Suicide Squad”
    Movie Review: ‘Suicide Squad” By John Mulderig Catholic News Service NEW YORK — Initially stylish but ultimately ridiculous and chaotic, the DC comics- based adventure “Suicide Squad” (Warner Bros.) also features some dubious moral values. Add to that the film’s lurid atmosphere overall and its appeal, along with its appropriate audience, dwindles still further. If there’s any good news to be salvaged from this mess, it’s that casting Viola Davis as a tough-as-nails government bureaucrat works quite well. Davis plays hard-bitten intelligence agent Amanda Waller. Waller’s pet project is the creation of the combat team of the title, an ensemble of violent villains she’s determined to spring from prison and put at the service of the government. The leading figures in this dirty half-dozen are skilled assassin Floyd Lawton (Will Smith), aka Deadshot, and psychiatrist-turned-psychopath Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), or Dr. Harleen Quinzel in her old job. Together with Australian killer Boomerang (Jai Courtney), arsonist Diablo (Jay Hernandez), skin disease-afflicted brute Killer Croc (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) and escape artist Slipknot (Adam Beach), Deadshot and Quinn find themselves placed under the command of the military’s leading special ops warrior, Col. Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), and compelled to do Waller’s bidding. Their first mission is to take on an evil specter whose campaign of destruction has forced the evacuation of an entire city. Whence this malignant spirit? Well, it seems that archaeologist June Moone (Cara Delevingne), Flag’s true love, got more than she bargained for when she went barging into an Aztec temple one day.

The 35-year-old actress recently made her directorial debut with teen-comedy ‘Booksmart’ Oand she admits she “absolutely” would want to take control of a Marvel Cinematic Universe film in the future, and follow in the footsteps of ChloÈ Zhao who is set to helm the upcoming MCU film ‘The Eternals’ and Ava DuVernay who will soon begin work on DC Extended Universe movie ‘The New Gods’. In an interview with MTV International, she said: “Totally yeah, absolutely.
