Burton Announces Winner of Total Recall Prize Draw Submitted By: Pr-Sending-Enterprises Monday, 4 February 2013 Burton announces winner of Total Recall prize draw Submitted by: pr-sending-enterprises Monday, 4 February 2013 Burton has announced the winner of a prize draw launched in conjunction with the release of "Total Recall" on Blu-ray and DVD. Tom Rotherham from Bolton was picked as the lucky winner from over 6500 entries, pickling up the prize of a 40" LCD television and Blu-ray player. When he found out he won, Tom said: "Thanks a lot Burton! Great start to the New Year with my brand new TV and Blu-Ray player. I'm really looking forward to a shopping spree too." Total Recall is a 2012 American dystopian science fiction action film where a factory worker, Douglas Quaid, begins to suspect that he is a spy after visiting Rekall - a company that provides its clients with implanted fake memories of a life they would like to have led - goes wrong and he finds himself on the run. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid, even though he's got a beautiful wife who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life - real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man as he finds himself on the run from the police. Total Recall was directed by Len Wiseman, written by Mark Bomback, James Vanderbilt, and Kurt Wimmer, and stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, Bryan Cranston, John Cho, and Bill Nighy. This film is a remake of the 1990 film of the same name, which featured Arnold Schwarzenegger as Douglas Quaid. About Burton: Burton is the outfitter of the Modern British Man.

  • Tracing Posthuman Cannibalism: Animality and the Animal/Human Boundary in the Texas Chain Saw Massacre Movies
    The Cine-Files, Issue 14 (spring 2019) Tracing Posthuman Cannibalism: Animality and the Animal/Human Boundary in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre Movies Ece Üçoluk Krane In this article I will consider insights emerging from the field of Animal Studies in relation to a selection of films in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (hereafter TCSM) franchise. By paying close attention to the construction of the animal subject and the human-animal relation in the TCSM franchise, I will argue that the original 1974 film, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre II (1986) and the 2003 reboot The Texas Chain Saw Massacre all transgress the human-animal boundary in order to critique “carnism.”1 As such, these films exemplify “posthuman cannibalism,” which I define as a trope that transgresses the human-nonhuman boundary to undermine speciesism and anthropocentrism. In contrast, the most recent installment in the TCSM franchise Leatherface (2017) paradoxically disrupts the human-animal boundary only to re-establish it, thereby diverging from the earlier films’ critiques of carnism. For Communication scholar and animal advocate Carrie Packwood Freeman, the human/animal duality lying at the heart of speciesism is something humans have created in their own minds.2 That is, we humans typically do not consider ourselves animals, even though we may acknowledge evolution as a factual account of human development. Freeman proposes that we begin to transform this hegemonic mindset by creating language that would help humans rhetorically reconstruct themselves as animals. Specifically, she calls for the replacement of the term “human” with “humanimal” and the term “animal” with “nonhuman animal.”3 The advantage of Freeman’s terms is that instead of being mutually exclusive, they are mutually inclusive terms that foreground commonalities between humans and animals instead of differences.

  • “Why So Serious?” Comics, Film and Politics, Or the Comic Book Film As the Answer to the Question of Identity and Narrative in a Post-9/11 World
    ABSTRACT “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD by Kyle Andrew Moody This thesis analyzes a trend in a subgenre of motion pictures that are designed to not only entertain, but also provide a message for the modern world after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The analysis provides a critical look at three different films as artifacts of post-9/11 culture, showing how the integration of certain elements made them allegorical works regarding the status of the United States in the aftermath of the attacks. Jean Baudrillard‟s postmodern theory of simulation and simulacra was utilized to provide a context for the films that tap into themes reflecting post-9/11 reality. The results were analyzed by critically examining the source material, with a cultural criticism emerging regarding the progression of this subgenre of motion pictures as meaningful work. “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Communications Mass Communications Area by Kyle Andrew Moody Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor ___________________ Dr. Bruce Drushel Reader ___________________ Dr. Ronald Scott Reader ___________________ Dr. David Sholle TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..........................................................................................................................

At age 11, she took part in a modeling competition and won an acting scholarship for a school in Los Angeles. She landed her breakout role on the family drama 7th Heaven, playing Mary Camden. She then appeared in films like Ulee’s Gold and I’ll Be Home for Christmas. After a year of college, she went back to L.A. to focus on acting, nabbing roles in Summer Catch, Rules of Attraction, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Blade: Trinity, Stealth, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Valentine’s Day, and Hitchcock. Off-camera, the actress supports numerous social causes, and most recently, she used her celebrity status to help turn the spotlight on the global water crisis. At the start of her career, Jessica Biel dated Adam LaVorgna, who she met on the set of I’ll Be Home for Christmas. The young famous couple made it work for three years before they split. She started dating Chris Evans in 2004, and soon after their celebrity break-up, she was spotted spending a lot of time with baseball player Derek Jeter.

  • 44 Blue Productions and Jessica Biel and Michelle Purple's Iron Ocean
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 44 BLUE PRODUCTIONS AND JESSICA BIEL AND MICHELLE PURPLE’S IRON OCEAN PRODUCTIONS TEAM UP FOR “GOING DOLL” Golden Globe® Nominated Producers and Peabody Award-Winning Production House Collaborate on Animated Series based on Australian “Celebrity-Obsessed, Social-Climbing Dolls” BURBANK, Calif., April 23, 2018 – Innovative and acclaimed production house 44 Blue Productions, a Red Arrow Studios company, and Jessica Biel and Michelle Purple’s Iron Ocean Productions, the team behind last year’s critically acclaimed and Golden Globe® nominated USA hit “The Sinner,” will partner on irreverent new animated series “Going Doll”. “Going Doll” is an animated comedy series that’s a playful, tongue-in-cheek but at times dark commentary on the tummy-tucked underbelly of a status-driven and self-obsessed society. The series follows a cast of fame-fueled, self-absorbed caricatures of today’s “housewife culture” as they take over Los Angeles and espouse their beliefs on getting ahead, based on their fictional self-help book “Dollface: A Modern Woman’s Guide to Etiquette, Social Climbing, Celebrity and Monetizing the Marriage.” “Going Doll” is inspired by the eccentric “Angie Dolls” – a series of sketches and felt dolls satirizing the bourgeois lifestyle of Australia’s suburban upper class, created by Australian- based former fashion model and novelist Miranda Darling and UK-based fashion photographer Sophie Edelstein. “We fell in love with the ‘Dolls’ irreverent humor from the moment Jessica Biel and Michelle Purple ‘introduced’ us,” said 44 Blue President and Co-founder Stephanie Noonan Drachkovitch. “We’re thrilled to partner with Iron Ocean to bring Miranda Darling and Sophie Edelstein’s unique vision to life – we know the outrageous but lovable Dolls are going to make quite an impact when they hit stateside!” “We are beyond excited to be partnering with 44 Blue Productions to create ‘Going Doll,’ and to share Miranda Darling and Sophie Edelstein’s brilliant and humorous creative minds with audiences,” stated Jessica Biel.

Anita Elberse Assistant Professor Harvard Business School Boston, MA 02163, USA Phone: 617 495 6080 Fax: 617 230 7658 Email: [email protected] July 30, 2006 THE POWER OF STARS IN CREATIVE INDUSTRIES: DO STARS DRIVE THE SUCCESS OF MOVIES? ABSTRACT Is the involvement of “star” creative workers critical to the success of creative products? That belief is particularly apparent in the motion picture industry, where studios regularly pay multimillion-dollar fees to star actors. I shed light on the returns on this investment using an event study that considers the impact of over 1,200 casting announcements on trading behavior in a simulated and real stock market setting. I find evidence that the involvement of stars impacts movies’ expected theatrical revenues, and I provide insight into the magnitude of that effect. In a cross-sectional analysis grounded in the literature on group dynamics, I also examine the determinants of the magnitude of stars’ impact on expected revenues: among other things, I show that the stronger a cast already is, the greater is the impact of a newly recruited star with a track record of box office successes or with a strong artistic reputation.
