  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • 4.5.1 Los Abducidos: El Duro Retorno En Expediente X Se Duda De Si Las
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de Documents de la UAB 4.5.1 Los abducidos: El duro retorno En Expediente X se duda de si las abducciones son obra de humanos o de extraterrestres por lo menos hasta el momento en que Mulder es abducido al final de la Temporada 7. La duda hace que el encuentro con otras personas que dicen haber sido abducidas siempre tenga relevancia para Mulder, Scully o ambos, como se puede ver con claridad en el caso de Cassandra Spender. Hasta que él mismo es abducido se da la paradójica situación de que quien cree en la posibilidad de la abducción es él mientras que Scully, abducida en la Temporada 2, siempre duda de quién la secuestró, convenciéndose de que los extraterrestres son responsables sólo cuando su compañero desaparece (y no necesariamente en referencia a su propio rapto). En cualquier caso poco importa en el fondo si el abducido ha sido víctima de sus congéneres humanos o de alienígenas porque en todos los casos él o ella cree –con la singular excepción de Scully– que sus raptores no son de este mundo. Como Leslie Jones nos recuerda, las historias de abducción de la vida real que han inspirado este aspecto de Expediente X “expresan una nueva creencia, tal vez un nuevo temor: a través de la experimentación sin emociones realizada por los alienígenas usando cuerpos humanos adquiridos por la fuerza, se demuestra que el hombre pertenece a la naturaleza, mientras que los extraterrestres habitan una especie de supercultura.” (Jones 94).

  • Filmic Tomboy Narrative and Queer Feminist Spectatorship
    UNHAPPY MEDIUM: FILMIC TOMBOY NARRATIVE AND QUEER FEMINIST SPECTATORSHIP A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Lynne Stahl May 2015 © 2015 Lynne Stahl ALL RIGHTS RESERVED UNHAPPY MEDIUM: FILMIC TOMBOY NARRATIVE AND QUEER FEMINIST SPECTATORSHIP Lynne Stahl, Ph.D. Cornell University, 2015 ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates the ways in which American discourses of gender, sexuality, and emotion structure filmic narrative and the ways in which filmic narrative informs those discourses in turn. It approaches this matter through the figure of the tomboy, vastly undertheorized in literary scholarship, and explores the nodes of resistance that film form, celebrity identity, and queer emotional dispositions open up even in these narratives that obsessively domesticate their tomboy characters and pair them off with male love interests. The first chapter theorizes a mode of queer feminist spectatorship, called infelicitous reading, around the incoherently “happy” endings of tomboy films and obligatorily tragic conclusions of lesbian films; the second chapter links the political and sexual ambivalences of female-centered sports films to the ambivalent results of Title IX; and the third chapter outlines a type of queer reproductivity and feminist paranoia that emerges cumulatively in Jodie Foster’s body of work. Largely indebted to the work of Judith Butler, Lauren Berlant, and Sara Ahmed, this project engages with past and present problematics in the fields of queer theory, feminist film criticism, and affect studies—questions of nondichotomous genders, resistant spectatorship and feminist potential within linear narrative, and the chronological cues that dominant ideology builds into our understandings of gender, sexuality, narrative, and emotions.

    For Immediate Release: BELIEVE IT OR NOT, TRAVEL CHANNEL GREENLIGHTS THE REBOOT OF THE ICONIC ‘RIPLEY’S BELIEVE IT OR NOT!’ HOSTED BY ACTOR BRUCE CAMPBELL Veteran actor Bruce Campbell is executive producer and host of the reboot of “Ripley’s Believe It or Not!” NEW YORK (January 2, 2019) – Ripley’s Believe It or Not! has cornered the market on the extraordinary, the death defying, the odd and the unusual. Now, 100 years after Robert L. Ripley launched the brand, the phrase Believe It or Not! is known globally and has come to symbolize how we marvel at the wonders of our world. Travel Channel is rebooting the iconic series, hosted by veteran actor Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead, Burn Notice), with 10 all-new, one-hour episodes that will showcase the most astonishing, real and one-of-a- kind stories. Currently in production, the series will be shot on location at the famed Ripley Warehouse in Orlando, Florida, and will incorporate incredible stories from all parts of the globe — from Brazil to Baltimore.

As part of the 100th anniversary celebration of Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, Campbell rang in the new year in Times Square with the New Year’s Eve Ball Drop along with millions of new friends. “As an actor, I’ve always been drawn toward material that is more ‘fantastic’ in nature, so I was eager and excited to partner with Travel Channel and Ripley’s Believe It or Not! on this new show,” said Campbell.

  • Ash Vs Evil Dead S1e10
    Ash vs evil dead s1e10 Continue But before you look forward, there is much to talk about from what turned out to be a great finale of a big first season. Taking off the killer last week cliffhanger, the carnage, true to form, do not subside. We had a quick dispatch of Officer Fisher, Pablo was horribly used to create the strange creepy undead of the kids, and Heather, whom I was hoping was going to stay, was literally exploding. Or be torn apart. Or something like that. Whatever it was, it was awful, although it gave Kelly a very funny attempt at a bullying moment with an attempt and unable to hit her severed head. Kelly really came into her own this week as, with Ash and Pablo otherwise busy, she had to take charge and try to save them both. Seeing her step up to the plate was awesome, even if it all ended up amounting to a lot of badass lines and (perhaps unsuccessfully?) trying to burn the cockpit. Anyway, she would eventually get and turn the tide of the final fight with Ruby, who as it always was finally reached to what Ash was willing to do to save her friends. Ashe's arc from irresponsible tramp to his father's protective figure was arguably the best thing in a stellar first season, a subtle transformation that didn't compromise anything that was big in him, and ultimately made him a richer, more enjoyable character. Last week teased us with a question about whether Ash really wanted to get rid of the book, and this week answered it; maybe part of him doesn't want to let go of his hero role (luckily for us that part doesn't have to), but overall that he really wants peace, riding into the sunset with his newfound family.
