I’d like to present some disagreement with that. Since becoming involved with the N3F, I’ve gotten two bureaus to work with, and have been put on the recruitment activity, as well as being a director, which might be considered taking on a work overload, especially with time so priceless in the course of a day. -

À bord, tout est calme. L’équipage et les 2000 passagers sont en hypersommeil, et seul Walter, le synthétique, arpente les coursives. Mais lorsqu’une explosion stellaire détruit les capteurs d’énergie du vaisseau, les avaries et les pertes humaines sont énormes… Heureusement, les survivants découvrent à proximité ce qui semble être un paradis vierge, une planète aux immenses montagnes couronnées de nuages et aux magnifiques forêts qui pourrait être tout aussi viable qu’Origae-6. Pourtant, très vite, le paradis va révéler sa réalité infernale. Ce monde regorge de dangers inconnus et mortels. Les survivants vont tout tenter pour échapper à une menace qui dépasse l’entendement… 2 NOTES DE PRODUCTION Dans l’espace, personne ne vous entend crier… Près de quarante ans après, ces mots évoquent toujours avec autant de force l’intensité oppressante d’ALIEN, LE HUITIÈME PASSAGER, le chef-d’œuvre de l’horreur futuriste signé Ridley Scott. -

Wright 1 OFF THE ROAD Imperialism And Exploration In The American Road Movie “Road movies are too cool to address serious socio-political issues. Instead, they express the fury and suffering at the extremities of a civilized life, and give their restless protagonists the false hope of a one-way ticket to nowhere.” –Michael Atkinson, quoted in “The Road Movie Book” (1). “‘Imperialism’ means the practice, the theory, and the attitudes of a dominating metropolitan center ruling a distant territory; ‘colonialism’, which is almost always a consequence of imperialism, is the implanting of settlements on distant territory” –Edward Said, Culture and Imperialism (9) “I am still a little bit scared of flying, but I am definitely far more scared of all the disgusting trash in between places” -Cy Amundson, This Is Not Happening “This is gonna be exactly like Eurotrip, except it’s not gonna suck” -Kumar Patel, Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay Wright 2 Off The Road Abstract: This essay explores the imperialist nature of the American road movie as it is defined by the film’s era of release, specifically through the lens of how road movies abuse the lands that are travelled through. -

Alien: Covenant
ALIEN: COVENANT In space, no one can hear you scream. After nearly four decades, those words remain synonymous with the sheer, relentless intensity of Ridley Scott’s masterpiece of futuristic horror, Alien. Now, the father of the iconic franchise returns once more to the world he created to explore its darkest corners with ALIEN: COVENANT, a pulse-pounding new adventure that pushes the boundaries of R-rated terror. All is quiet aboard the spaceship Covenant. The crew and the rest of the 2,000 souls aboard the pioneering vessel are deep in hyper-sleep, leaving the synthetic Walter to walk the corridors alone. The ship is en route to the remote planet Origae-6, where, on the far side of the galaxy, the settlers hope to establish a new outpost for humanity. The tranquility is shattered when a nearby stellar ignition shreds Covenant’s energy-collection sails, resulting in dozens of casualties and throwing the mission off course. Soon, the surviving crew members discover what appears to be an uncharted paradise, an undisturbed Eden of cloud-capped mountains and immense, soaring trees far closer than Origae- 6 and potentially just as viable as a home. What they’ve found, however, is actually a dark and deadly world full of unexpected twists and turns. Facing a terrible threat beyond their imagination, the embattled explorers must attempt a harrowing escape. Set ten years after the events depicted in Scott’s 2012 hit Prometheus, ALIEN: COVENANT returns to the roots of the director’s groundbreaking saga with a uniquely terrifying tale filled with white-knuckle adventure and monstrous new creatures. -
LA HISTORIA DE BLADE RUNNER PARTE 3: La Legenda Continúa (Versión Completa) Por Paul M
LA HISTORIA DE BLADE RUNNER PARTE 3: La legenda continúa (versión completa) por Paul M. Sammon El período de preproducción de Blade Runner fue testigo del descontento que el autor original, Philip K. Dick, sentía respecto del proyecto. La etapa de producción de BR se vio entorpecida por la fricción financiera, los conflictos interpersonales y el rodaje agotador y extenuante. Durante la postproducción, Harrison Ford grabó una narración que no le agradaba, mientras que dos preestrenos de BR redundaron en la adición a último momento de un final feliz, rodado de manera apresurada. Todas estas complicaciones, sin embargo, se habrían olvidado rápidamente si Blade Runner hubiese sido un éxito. Desafortunadamente, cuando la película se estrenó el 25 de junio de 1982, rápidamente quedó en evidencia que BR sería todo, menos un éxito. Durante su permanencia inicial en cartelera, Blade Runner se vio, en general, como un fracaso de taquilla con una venta de entradas decepcionante. Por consiguiente, cuando la película desapareció de los cines después de su aparición original en cartelera, era predecible que BR había llegado al final de su camino. ¿Qué había sucedido? Se han publicado varias teorías para explicar el fracaso inicial de BR. Una teoría sostiene que el público de 1982, atraída por la presencia de Harrison Ford, fue a ver BR con la expectativa de encontrarse con el tipo de historia de aventuras agitadas y alegres que habían hecho famoso a Ford en ese entonces. Pero BR estaba lejos de ser rápida y alegre. En realidad, los espectadores se encontraron con una película oscura y desafiante. -

In addition to some personal events that wound up garnering media attention, he recently wrote and starred in the submarine thriller, Greyhound. And to close out the season, the performer has taken on the lead role in News of the World , a new western from director Paul Greengrass ( Captain Phillips , Jason Bourne , 22 July ). The movie may feel a bit old-fashioned and measured in some respects, but it is a well-acted and beautifully shot feature that displays some scenic natural locations.
