Frank Miller's unproduced screenplays from Robocop 2 and The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus. Sounds great. Like a lot of Avatar's comics, it's full of graphic violence to the point of just being gross. It's full of rampant sexism and T and A. The female police officers get their clothes blown off until they are girls with guns in lingerie. It's ridiculous. Juan Jose Ryp is a fantastic artist now, but back then his art was super detailed, yet, he The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus figured out how to make his characters stand out in each panel. I couldn't tell what was going on in half the pages. The Robocop 3 book at least has coherent story and art. I would only bother with this if you're a huge Robocop fan. View 2 comments. The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus 04, Jon rated it it was ok Shelves: comics-graphicnovels- mangasay-it-with-bulletssci-fi-fantasyopl. Laboriously hamish. Thinly developed. Aggressively sexist and misogynistic. Poorly plotted. I don't care about Frank Miller, and mostly find his dude bro angst tediously gratuitous. His RoboCop has nothing on Verhoeven's remarkable art trash action satire. I know, Miller didn't adapt these graphic novels; only penned the scripts. But these adaptations come off with about the same obnoxious superficiality found in many of Miller's original works-- Batman: Year One is The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus exception. I've never understood why so many like him. Don't think I ever will. He's but a pale imitation of far better artists. Apr 27, Shawn Birss rated it liked it Shelves: fictiongraphica. This heavy volume contains two long format graphic novels illustrated from unproduced screenplays by Frank Miller, and a shorter epilogue set in the same timeline.

It appears to me by the significant difference in pacing and panel placement between the two stories that the artists were probably also responsible for translating the stories from screenplay to page, as compared to a more traditional comic strip in which the writer would describe panels, placement, and sometimes even the size and details of the individual panels. Whether or not this is so, there is a significant difference between the two stories and their methods of storytelling. My judgment is that the first is far superior. The stories fit together as a whole. Anyone who enjoys the first would likely want to read the second. However, the stories are available separately. Since the second isn't essential, if a reader wanted something shorter, I'd recommend only reading The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus first. Both stories are very Frank Miller. They are dark, cynical, pessimistic, violent, cruel, and gratuitous in gore and titillation. As I came to the end of the book, I wondered if the word "sci-fi-sploitation" had ever before been used. Readers familiar with Miller will see a lot they've seen before. There are strong echoes especially of The Dark Knight, especially in The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus first story. Miller does a fantastic job of capturing the spirit and tone of Robocop, as interpreted of course through his unique brand of storytelling. I personally found that the difference between the films Robocop and Robocop 2 - the latter based on Frank Miller's script - to be a jarring swing to the right. Miller loses some, but not all, of the dark satire in the original film, and seems to bring a darker, more conservative perspective to the story. It isn't a worldview I share, but this comic shows him pulling off this change in interpretation better than the films. Fans of Miller and Robocop know what they are likely to find here. This is Miller being Miller, not slumming. The first story is Robocop at its best. The second is passable. Fans of both will enjoy the book. It is unlikely to convince people new to this writer or franchise. View 1 comment. May 07, Michael rated it The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus was ok. Although I love much The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus Frank's work, I can say this book worked for me. It has plenty of satire of corporate toxicity and social trends circabut it's surprisingly light on plot and totally transparent on character. The first part Robocop 2 has some good ideas in it, but not enough character and the art is too busy, cluttering the storytelling with insane detail like a poor man's Geoff Darrow. The second has better art and clearer characters, but lacks the bite of the first. The most f Although I love much of Frank's work, I can say this book worked for me. The most fascinating thing about both stories is the prominence of women characters. Robocop is nearly a cipher, so the main villain and lead protagonist in each narrative winds up being a woman, shadow in the villains' cases but compelling in the heroes' instances, despite the artist's tendency to partially undress her in the first story. I was SO excited to read what I understood to be the Frank-Miller-penned script for Robocop 2, which was turned down for movie-dom because it was "unfilmable" and then made into a comic. There is no part of what is set down there that I find uninteresting. But the book needed some work. It was kinda The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus. The general idea, a rogue Robocop fighting the company that made him, would have made for a great movie. But I'm not real sure about the beats The Complete Frank Miller Robocop Omnibus the story.

    How Ninja Conquered the World THE TIMELINE OF SHINOBI POP CULTURE’S WORLDWIDE EXPLOSION Version 1.3 ©Keith J. Rainville, 2020 How did insular Japan’s homegrown hooded set go from local legend to the most marketable character archetype in the world by the mid-1980s? VN connects the dots below, but before diving in, please keep a few things in mind: • This timeline is a ‘warts and all’ look at a massive pop-culture phenomenon — meaning there are good movies and bad, legit masters and total frauds, excellence and exploitation. It ALL has to be recognized to get a complete picture of why the craze caught fire and how it engineered its own glass ceiling. Nothing is being ranked, no one is being endorsed, no one is being attacked. • This is NOT TO SCALE, the space between months and years isn’t literal, it’s a more anecdotal portrait of an evolving phenomenon. • It’s USA-centric, as that’s where VN originates and where I lived the craze myself. And what happened here informed the similar eruptions all over Europe, Latin America etc. Also, this isn’t a history of the Japanese booms that predated ours, that’s someone else’s epic to outline. • Much of what you see spotlighted here has been covered in more depth on VintageNinja.net over the past decade, so check it out... • IF I MISSED SOMETHING, TELL ME! I’ll be updating the timeline from time to time, so if you have a gap to fill or correction to offer drop me a line! Pinholes of the 1960s In Japan, from the 1600s to the 1960s, a series of booms and crazes brought the ninja from shadowy history to popular media.

  • Plug and Play Language Models: a Simple Approach to Controlled Text
    Published as a conference paper at ICLR 2020 PLUG AND PLAY LANGUAGE MODELS: A SIMPLE APPROACH TO CONTROLLED TEXT GENERATION Sumanth Dathathri ∗∗ Andrea Madotto ∗ Janice Lan Jane Hung CMS, Caltech HKUST Uber AI Uber AI Eric Frank Piero Molino Jason Yosinski yy Rosanne Liu y Uber AI Uber AI Uber AI Uber AI [email protected], [email protected] {janlan, jane.hung, mysterefrank, piero, yosinski, rosanne}@uber.com ABSTRACT Large transformer-based language models (LMs) trained on huge text corpora have shown unparalleled generation capabilities. However, controlling attributes of the generated language (e.g. switching topic or sentiment) is difficult without modifying the model architecture or fine-tuning on attribute-specific data and en- tailing the significant cost of retraining. We propose a simple alternative: the Plug and Play Language Model (PPLM) for controllable language generation, which combines a pretrained LM with one or more simple attribute classifiers that guide text generation without any further training of the LM. In the canonical scenario we present, the attribute models are simple classifiers consisting of a user-specified bag of words or a single learned layer with 100,000 times fewer parameters than the LM. Sampling entails a forward and backward pass in which gradients from the attribute model push the LM’s hidden activations and thus guide the gener- ation. Model samples demonstrate control over a range of topics and sentiment styles, and extensive automated and human annotated evaluations show attribute alignment and fluency. PPLMs are flexible in that any combination of differen- tiable attribute models may be used to steer text generation, which will allow for diverse and creative applications beyond the examples given in this paper.

  • The Avatars of Masculinity in Robocop (1987) and Its Remake (2014)
    Représentations dans le monde anglophone – Janvier 2017 Man Made and Remade: the Avatars of Masculinity in Robocop (1987) and its Remake (2014) Cyril Besson, Univ. Grenoble Alpes, ILCEA4 Keywords: Robocop, Verhoeven, Padilha, remake, gender, genre, point of view in film. Mots-clés: Robocop, Verhoeven, Padilha, remake, genre, sexes, point de vue au cinéma. It is tempting to begin with a truism: nothing comes from nothing. This is a belief articulated by many in the twentieth century, among whom George Steiner in After Babel, where he presents culture as a long chain of translations and transformations of verbal, thematic or formal constants. The problem raised by the notion of a syntax of culture, however, is the same as with language, as exemplified by de Saussure’s distinction between langue and parole: if all one ever does is move around “building blocks” following the constraints imposed by a system, what of individual creativity? If the question is, generally speaking, of little import to most speakers of a given language, things are different when it comes to art and culture: finding one’s voice, embodying a sort of progress for one’s chosen form of expression and leaving one’s mark on the latter, is what being an artist is about. The question of whether there is such a thing as true artistic singularity might be insoluble (no artist exists, who has not been influenced in some way, no matter how unpleasant the idea might be to him)1; however, one could say that in the field of popular culture, the twenty-first century inverts the proposition, especially in the collaborative form of art that is the cinema.

Sidelining Women in Contemporary Science-Fiction Film 1 Sidelining Women in Contemporary Science-Fiction Film Marianne Kac-Vergne 1 The success of the Alien franchise and of the first two Terminator films, and the resulting cult status of their remarkably tough female protagonists, Ellen Ripley and Sarah Connor, often obscures the fact that women rarely play more than a bit part in science fiction films centered almost exclusively on male heroes. Ripley and Connor have attracted so much critical analysis1 that little attention has been paid to the status and role of women in the genre as a whole2, thus skewing the debate in favor of “action heroines.” In 1993, Yvonne Tasker announced the arrival of muscular action heroines taking on the physical and narrative attributes of masculinity, as “a response of some kind to feminism,” (Tasker 15) a forecast confirmed in 2007 by Silke Andris and Ursula Frederick in Women Willing to Fight (2): “The 1980s and 1990s heralded the arrival of powerful muscular heroines the likes of Ellen Ripley (Alien quartet [1979, 1986, 1992, 1997]), Sarah Connor (The Terminator trilogy [1984, 1991, 2003]) and G.I.
