In this book, we also want to convey a sense of the animator’s place in the making of the fi lm and their perspective on what hap- pened, along with their professional journey leading up to that point. Steve Segal was born in Richmond, Virginia, in 1949. He made his fi rst animated fi lms as a high school student before studying Art at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he continued to produce award- winning, independent ani- mated shorts. Aft er graduating, Segal opened a traditional animation studio in Richmond, making commercials and educational fi lms for ten years. Aft er completing the cult animated fi lm Futuropolis (1984), which he co- directed with Phil Trumbo, Segal moved to Hollywood and became interested in com- puter animation.

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.

DESTINATION MOON PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Herge | 64 pages | 04 Nov 2002 | Egmont UK Ltd | 9781405206273 | English | London, United Kingdom Destination Moon | The Museum of Flight When you consider that nobody had even put a satellite in orbit yet and everything they attempt to show of what space is like is based entirely on what they thought they knew, it's amazing how accurate they were. The acting at first seemed bland and I wanted to slap that stupid Brooklyn guy around but as someone stated, the movie needed someone the scientists had to explain everything to. I guess if they wanted the audience to understand any of it they had to do it this way. At that year I highly doubt most people knew what space was like at all. We just take it completely for granted now. Fifty-one years from its release and here I am watching it in DVD format. It amazes me sometimes. I gave it an 8. Looking for something to watch?

One of the flaws of “Eyes Wide Shut” (1999), Kubrick’s posthumously re- leased, valedictory film, may be that it doesn’t screw with our heads enough. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), however, remains Kubrick’s crowning, confounding achievement.
