Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' It's Time for Marvel's 'Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' 04.19.2021 ​Marvel is back -- to movie theaters, that is -- with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings to be the first full-blown Marvel movie since the pandemic started to debut exclusively in movie theaters. The martial-arts action flick stars Simu Liu as martial-arts master Shang-Chi, who is being forced to deal with his heroic destiny even though he's spent years avoiding it. The movie also stars Awkwafina as his friend, Katy, and unwitting sidekick. In the trailer, Shang-Chi will ultimately have to take on the mysterious Ten Rings organization and its shadowy leader, The Mandarin. Shang-Chi comes out after Black Widow -- starring Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh, David Harbour and Rachel Weisz -- but that movie, which is the first in Marvel's Phase 4, is being released concurrently in theaters and on Disney+ premiere on July 9. Marvel movies will be released in a steady stream after that, with Chloe Zhao's The Eternals set to premiere in theaters on November 5. Besides Liu and Awkwafina, Shang-Chi also stars Michelle Yeoh, Fala Chen, Meng'er Zhang, Florian Muntenu and Ronny Chieng. The movie is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton and produced by Kevin Feige and Jonathan Schwartz, with Louis D'Esposito, Victoria Alonso and Charles Newirth serving as executive producers. David Callaham, Destin Daniel Cretton and Andrew Lanham wrote the screenplay. Marvel Studios' Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings debuts only in movie theaters on Sept. 3. Star Liu released the below poster on his social channels on Monday -- his birthday -- as well: Poster for Marvel Studios' upcoming 'Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings'.

    Monday, April 26, 2021 | No. 165 One of the things moviegoers like most about going to theatres is seeing films on the Big Screen, "the way they were meant to be seen." What people don't realize is that when films started in the mid-1890s, there were neither screens nor projectors. The very short films of that era were meant to be seen individually by looking into peep show machines in arcades. Those Kinetoscope devices were one of many inventions from Thomas Edison's factory in West Orange, NJ. Since Edison was monetizing his Kinetoscopes quite well, he had no interest in developing a machine to project film images on walls. Others, however, saw a big future in showing films to groups of people. Peep show owners, in fact, were very vocal in pressing Edison to devise a Film projection to large audiences was much more way to show life size images on arcade walls. This led to the Vitascope profitable than viewing through individual kiosks, since projection system, developed by Washington, DC inventor Thomas Armat, fewer machines were needed in proportion to the but then marketed by Edison's organization as if it were his own invention. number of viewers - Click to Play The first public Vitascope screening took place April 23, 1896 at Koster & Biel's Music Hall, a vaudeville house in New York's Herald Square at 34th Street near Broadway, the site today of Macy's. It would have premiered three days earlier, but it took longer than expected to install the machinery. That first night audience was dazzled by film images projected on a 20 foot canvas screen set within a gilded frame.

  • Destin Daniel Cretton, Director. Just Mercy. Warner Bros. Pictures, 2019. Just Mercy Is the Film Adaption of a Memoir by Civil R
    Destin Daniel Cretton, director. Just Mercy. Warner Bros. Pictures, 2019. Just Mercy is the film adaption of a memoir by civil rights lawyer Bryan Stevenson, starring Jamie Foxx and Michael B. Jordan. Dir- ected by Destin Daniel Cretton, known for Short Term 12 and The Glass Castle, and co-written with Andrew Lanham, the film is based on Stevenson’s experiences as a young, black, Ivy League- educated attorney in rural Alabama during the 1980s and 90s fighting systemic racism and an abusive criminal justice system. This film is a social commentary on America’s failed judicial system that has disproportionately incarcerated African Amer- icans, perpetuating inequity in the black community. The film begins with Johnny D (Foxx), as he is stopped and surrounded by police while he drives home after a day of work. They are convinced that he is guilty of murdering a white woman and haul him off to jail. The following scene shows Stevenson (Jordan), a recent Harvard Law School graduate, arriving in Alabama. It becomes apparent that he is an activist and a lawyer specializing in death penalty appeals. Stevenson’s work highlights America’s biased judicial system in the deep South, where African Americans are unjustly prosecuted and poorly represented, resulting in many unfair convictions of innocent people. The level of systemic racism is profound in states such as Alabama, a former slave state and participant of Jim Crow laws. Arriving to meet his client, Stevenson is treated poorly by the prison guards who question his status as a lawyer. They demand that he is strip-searched before entering the facility, even though counselors are not subject to that type of protocol.

  • Just Mercy Film Study Guide Director: Destin Daniel Cretton 2019 | Fiction | 135 Minutes | USA | English | Rated PG-13
    Just Mercy Film Study Guide Director: Destin Daniel Cretton 2019 | FIction | 135 Minutes | USA | English | Rated PG-13 https://www.justmercyfilm.com/ Synopsis: Just Mercy follows lawyer Bryan Stevenson (Michael B. Jordan) and his history-making ​ battle for justice. After graduating from Harvard, Bryan heads to Alabama to defend those wrongly condemned or who were not afforded proper representation, with the support of local advocate Eva Ansley (Brie Larson). One of his first cases is that of Walter McMillian (Jamie Foxx), who, in 1987, was sentenced to die for the murder of an 18-year-old girl, despite a preponderance of evidence proving his innocence. Bryan becomes embroiled in a labyrinth of legal and political maneuverings and overt and unabashed racism as he fights for Walter, and others like him, with the odds—and the system—stacked against them. Fast Fact: 1. Bryan Stevenson was born in 1959 in Milton, Delaware. Bryan grew up heavily involved in his church, which ingrained in him the idea that “each person in our society is more than the worst thing they’ve ever done.” Milton was a formally segregated city until Bryan entered second grade, though this did not stop segregationist laws and social codes from being Upheld. 2. Bryan Stevenson founded the Equal Justice Initiative in 1989, while he was working for the Southern Center for Human Rights in Montgomery, Alabama. The SCHR had received federal funding to provide legal counsel for death row inmates until 1994, when Republicans gained control of Congress in midterm elections and cut off federal funding to such centers.
