  • Introduction
    Reality Unbound Introduction Introduction Reality Unbound: New Departures in Science Fiction Cinema cience fiction, Jean Baudrillard wrote, “is no longer anywhere, and it is ev- Serywhere.”1 In formulating his conceptualization of simulacra, Baudrillard was struck by the inherent instability of referents, and by proxy the difficulties associated with discerning what is real in the modern world. As we move deeper into the new millennium, Baudrillard’s slippery formulation seems to solidify somehow, as near constant war, financial crises and rising political extremism cloud our assumptions about the contemporary world we have molded. In an age where the language employed by the media, as well as the events it describes, becomes ever more apocalyptic in tone, one might reasonably ponder the rami- fications for sf, which has long held a looking glass up to society, revealing our foibles and reveling in our hunger for advancement and our competing appe- tite for destruction. The 21st century was not supposed to be like this, and yet though still in its infancy, who knows how it will turn out? If we accept that sf provides a shadowy reflection of the times that spawned it, then it is tempting to ask how we and by extension our times will look to future historians? Whilst our worldview has become increasingly unsettled—and a cursory glance at recent sf releases can give the impression that dystopia is the new normal—it would be foolhardy to divorce ourselves from historicity or fall prey to what the British sociologist John Urry described as “an epochal hubris that presumes that one’s own moment is somehow a special moment in transition.”2 Sf cinema has long been cognizant of such considerations of course, and in the midst of chaos it endures.

    1 von 14 Pre-Viewing How often do I watch films? I usually watch at least one film every weekend, mostly together with my family. The advantage of weekend-watching is that I can afford staying up late without getting in trouble. From Monday to Friday (if I watch anything at all), I tend to only watch one episode of a series a day, because this does not take as much time as watching a whole film. During the exam period I watch less movies, even on the weekends, whereas in the holidays it could happen that I nearly watch one movie per day. In general, I prefer movies (or at least short series) to longer series, because sadly I often watch one season, then lack the time to continue, and in the end I have lost interest in the story or the characters – so I don’t finish the series at all. Therefore, a longer series has to be of a high quality in terms of plot and characters (for example “Downton Abbey“), otherwise it doesn’t really make sense to me to watch the series until the end. What are my sources? I’m a stereo-typical DVD-person, increasingly changing to the use of Blue-Rays. My parents didn’t want me to watch TV when I was young, therefore I never got used to watching it and these days don’t feel the need to. I also use the streaming platform Netflix and sometimes the Amazon Prime of my brother, who doesn’t have to pay for it because he’s an undergraduate.

  • The Functions of Apocalyptic Cinema in American Film
    Journal of Religion & Film Volume 21 Article 36 Issue 1 April 2017 4-1-2017 Global Catastrophe in Motion Pictures as Meaning and Message: The uncF tions of Apocalyptic Cinema in American Film Wynn Gerald Hamonic Thompson Rivers University, [email protected] Recommended Citation Hamonic, Wynn Gerald (2017) "Global Catastrophe in Motion Pictures as Meaning and Message: The unctF ions of Apocalyptic Cinema in American Film," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 21 : Iss. 1 , Article 36. Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol21/iss1/36 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Global Catastrophe in Motion Pictures as Meaning and Message: The Functions of Apocalyptic Cinema in American Film Abstract The ts eady rise in production of American apocalyptic films and the genre's enduring popularity over the last seven decades can be explained by the functions the film genre serves. Through an analysis of a broad range of apocalyptic films along with the application of several theoretical and critical approaches to the study of film, the author describes seven functions commonly found in American apocalyptic cinema expressed both in terms of its meaning (the underlying purpose of the film) and its message (the ideas the filmmakers want to convey to the audience). Apocalyptic cinema helps the viewer make sense of the world, offers audiences strategies for managing crises, documents our hopes, fears, discourses, ideologies and socio-political conflicts, critiques the existing social order, warns people to change their ways in order to avert an imminent apocalypse, refutes or ridicules apocalyptic hysteria, and seeks to bring people to a religious renewal, spiritual awakening and salvation message.

  • Science Fiction Cinema
    Science Fiction Cinema One Day Course Tutor: Michael Parkes Science Fiction Cinema This course will examine how the science fiction genre has explored the relationship between humanity, technology and the other, to try to answer the question “what does it mean to be human?” The course will chart the history of the genre; from the early worlds of fantasy depicted in silent films, through to the invasion anxieties of the war years, the body politics of the 70s and 80s and the representation of technology in contemporary sci-fi cinema. The one day course will also examine how the genre is currently being rebranded for contemporary audiences and how fandom has been important to its success. The course will include lots of clips, resources for you to take away and the opportunity to discuss the important questions that science fiction cinema asks. What is Science Fiction? Most film genres are difficult to compartmentalise but there often tends to be one key convention that allows us to understand the nature of the film. Horror films are scary, Comedies make us laugh but Science Fiction appears to be a little more complicated and difficult to tie down. They can be about the future, but then again can be set in the past, they explore themes of identity, technology and the other but then again sometimes don’t! It has been a long standing struggle in Film Studies to really define what science fiction is; some believe it is a sub-genre of Horror whereas others believe it is a genre of its own merit.
