Cost cutting continues Containment ideas implemented on campus By Kelley Bloomfield Ithacan Staff Almost a year after they submitted cost­ containment suggestions to the College, stu­ dents, faculty and staff members may be wondering if their ideas have been put to use.

On its streets, he watched the seven deadly sins performed daily, and they inspired the plot of a series of killings—each victim him or herself the perpetrator of a sin. Detective William Somerset, about to retire, teams up to solve the case with his young, idealistic replacement, David Mills. On the run after the detectives’ lucky strike on his apartment, John Doe, the serial killer, turns himself in after only the fifth murder (gluttony, greed, sloth, lust, and pride). Luring the detectives with the promise of the last two bodies (envy and anger), Doe presents Mills with the head of the young detective’s wife, claiming envy as his besetting sin. Disregarding Som- erset’s pleas for restraint, Mills shoots Doe, incarnating himself as wrath, and completing Doe’s bloody plan. Like Walker, his authorial creator, John Doe watched the deadly sins performed daily: DAVID MILLS: I thought all you did was kill innocent people.

  • The Hollywood Novelization: Film As Literature Or Literature As Film Promotion?
    The Hollywood Novelization: Film as Literature or Literature as Film Promotion? Johannes Mahlknecht University of Innsbruck, American Studies Abstract Hollywood movie novelizations are novels based on mainstream films and published about the time these films are released in theaters. The present article explores the ambiguous status of this generally little- esteemed and frequently ignored form of adaptation. On the one hand, novelizations are works of literature that can be enjoyed without knowledge of the film they are based on; on the other, they can be (and often are) seen as mere tools of film advertising. This latter aspect becomes particularly evident when looking at the cover design of a novelization. It invariably features the film’s artwork (the poster image, stills, and/or typography used for promoting the film) and frequently highlights the film’s stars rather than the book’s author. By analyzing a selection of book covers of novelized versions of recent films and comparing the novelization of Terminator Salvation (Foster 2009b) with the film Terminator( Salvation 2009, dir. McG) it is based on, the article traces and exam- ines the frictions between the opposing forces—literature and film marketing—that define the genre. This article was written as part of the research project Framing Media: The Periphery of Fic- tion and Film at the University of Innsbruck, Austria, funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) and headed by Mario Klarer. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Meir Sternberg and the anonymous referees of Poetics Today for their many priceless suggestions that helped improve this article.

  • The Black List 2005
    THE BLACK LIST 2005 THE BLACK LIST was compiled from the suggestions of over 90 film executives and high-level assistants, each of whom contributed the names of up to ten of their favorite scripts that were written in or are somehow uniquely associated with 2005 and will not be released in theaters during this calendar year. All reasonable effort was made to confirm the information contained herein. THE BLACK LIST apologizes for all misspellings, misattributions, incorrect representation identification, and questionable “2005” affiliations. If no representation information is listed, THE BLACK LIST could not determine whether or not the writer is currently represented. If they are not, it is so indicated. THE BLACK LIST is not a “best of” list. It is, at best, a “most liked” list. Enjoy. THE BLACK LIST is well aware of the irony of its name.
