Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes
has released a trio of teasers showing the terrible effects wrought on human society by the outbreak of the Simian Flu pandemic that began at the end of the last film.
The new film is set some ten years down the line, with humanity having been all but wiped out by the devastating flu that has left Caesar and his chums as the dominant species.
The new promos don't actually reveal any new footage from the film, but instead paint a picture of an abandoned London, New York and San Francisco falling into disrepair and decay.
Take a look at the new promos, below…
Widespread death and destruction looks to be on the cards then, but even worse than that, the London Eye appears to have rotted away! Boris will be heartbroken.
Directed by Matt Reeves and co-starring Gary Oldman, Andy Serkis and Keri Russell,
Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes
will open in the UK on 17 July 2014.

BBC Two is seeking to refresh its popular Factual Entertainment offering with a number of new formats. In the past, the channel has taken a leading role in developing such outstanding shows as Top Gear, Dragons' Den, The Apprentice, Robot Wars, Who Do You Think You Are? and The Great British Bake Off. But now we need to find the new shows which will define the next generation of Factual Entertainment on the channel.
This brief is intentionally broad because we want to encourage a range of ideas which will offer genuine refreshment and surprise in this area.
But the kinds of questions we are asking are: what are the new areas of lifestyle, home activities and hobbies which should follow on from The Great British Bake Off, The Great British Sewing Bee, The Patch, and The Great Interior Design Challenge? What are the new kinds of adventurous formats which will attract a broad but slightly more male skewing audience like Top Gear, Dragons' Den and The Apprentice: You're Fired? What are the lessons of Gogglebox and other rigged/user generated shows for the future of people-watching? How can we turn the dial and find the new version of competitive formats like Masterchef and The Great British Bake Off? Where are the shows for BBC Two with real scale which may be versions of international formats or offer other kinds of significant editorial ambition?
We are open to free-standing or returning formats but we would like them all to feel modern, witty, warm and innovative. They should push the boundaries in terms of what BBC Two has tried before in this area but without alienating the heartland audience. Please keep an eye out for diversity of talent and participants throughout.
There are three broad opportunities in the schedule for these kind of shows, please see the Commissioning Slots section below for more information.
Please note: Popular Factual Entertainment ideas for BBC Two can also be pitched via the Features & Formats Commissioning team.
The Entertainment portfolio on BBC Two continues to work really well, ranging from panel shows to Factual Entertainment formats.
The channel has always welcomed adventurous, cutting-edge ideas and formats that become much-loved features of the TV landscape. Many of our shows are talent-led and passionate expertise can also be key to bringing an audience to new shows.
For online and Red Button content ideas for Entertainment please visit the service strategy page for BBC iPlayer, Red Button and programme pages.
Find out more about the overall BBC Two channel strategy.
The challenge for entertainment on BBC Two is to continue to bring younger audiences (25 - 44 year-olds) to the channel without alienating the older heartland.
Factual-based formats have achieved this in the past by providing immersive experiences with strong entertainment values (which attracts younger viewers) whilst being set in an world which gives older viewers (over 55s) 'permission to watch'.
Tonally, the BBC Two audience appreciates something that creates a conversation with them and includes them in new experiences as well as telling a compelling story with strong entertainment values.
They also want content which prompts knowing smiles as well as laugh out loud moments.
Both opportunities exist in the WoCC in 2014/15 and 2015/16.
All proposals should be submitted via BBC Pitch to the relevant genre Controller or Commissioner.
Popular Factual Entertainment ideas for BBC Two can also be pitched via the Features & Formats Commissioning team.
Find contacts in Entertainment commissioning and Features & Formats commissioning.

Amtrak's Downeaster receives $35M in ARRA fundsOn Monday, U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced that the U.S. Department of Transportation and the State of Maine have finalized a grant agreement allowing work to begin on the rehabilitation and expansion of the Downeaster Amtrak intercity passenger service.
In January, President Obama announced that Maine was awarded $35 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds for the Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority (NNEPRA).
The Downeaster operates five daily roundtrips between Portland, Maine and Boston, Mass.
The Downeaster-Portland North Project will extend service from Portland to Brunswick, with a stop in Freeport, Maine. Construction on the project is expected to begin as early as July 6, 2010, and will continue over the next 28 months. The expanded service is expected to increase ridership, improve connectivity and balance passenger flow.
The $35 million ARRA grant will augment additional funds from the State of Maine to cover the project cost, including the rehabilitation of approximately 26.4 miles of existing rail lines owned by Pan Am Railways and construction of two Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant passenger platforms.
The Downeaster project will improve 36 highway-rail grade crossings, upgrade numerous wayside signals, install signals on the Brunswick Branch and result in many other right of way improvements.

Prep Time: 30 min
Cook Time: 2 hr
Oven Temp: 350
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 1.5 cup(s) red wine
- 1/4 ounce(s) dried mushrooms, such as porcini
- 4 pound(s) assorted root vegetables, peeled
- 8 ounce(s) white mushrooms, halved if large
- 2 large onions, sliced
- 2 tablespoon(s) chopped fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried
- 1 tablespoon(s) tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
- 4 cup(s) mushroom broth or reduced-sodium beef broth
- 4 bay leaves
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place wine in a small saucepan and heat until steaming. Remove from the heat, add dried mushrooms and let stand while you prepare the vegetables.
- If using carrots, cut into 3-inch pieces. If using parsnips, quarter lengthwise and remove the woody core, then cut into 3-inch pieces. Cut any round roots (beets, turnips, rutabaga and/or celeriac) into 1-inch-wide wedges. Place the roots, white mushrooms and onions in a large (12-by-15-inch) roasting pan.
- Line a sieve with cheesecloth or a coffee filter and place over a measuring cup or small bowl. Strain the wine-mushroom mixture through the sieve, reserving the wine. Coarsely chop the mushrooms and whisk them into the wine along with thyme, tomato paste, salt and pepper. Pour over the vegetables; add broth and bay leaves. Cover the roasting pan with foil.
- Bake, stirring occasionally, for 1 1/2 hours. Uncover and continuing baking, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are very tender, about 30 minutes more. Discard bay leaves.
Tips & Techniques
- Beets, carrots and parsnips are easily peeled with a vegetable peeler, but for tougher-skinned roots like celeriac, rutabaga and turnips, removing the peel with a knife can be easier. Cut off one end of the root to create a flat surface to keep it steady on the cutting board. Follow the contour of the vegetable with your knife. If you use a vegetable peeler on the tougher roots, peel around each vegetable at least three times to ensure all the fibrous skin has been removed.
- Shopping tip: Mushroom broth can be found in the natural-foods section of large supermarkets and in natural-foods stores.
- Make-ahead tip: Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Reheat slowly in the oven or on the stovetop.

Let me spell it out for you realllllyyyy easy. Some people, perhaps even the average person, right now, think that Doom3 is almost "real-life" grahpics
A person that thinks Doom3, HL2, or whatever, is almost real-life, isn't called an "Average" person. The real name I would use, would get me flibbled.
Currently, the best graphics I have ever seen, are in the Final Fantasy Movie. A film that took hundreds of super computers, a couple of years to render. And even then, the end result looked nothing like "Real-Life".
Real-life, isn't going to happen in our lifetime. Perhaps the next generation will see close to real-life. But if you think we are heading to real-life in 8 years, then you are seriously disillusioned.
I hope you remember this in 7-8 years
You add a zero to those figures, and I'll remember it, if I'm still here, or care.
They sort of have them now... I think it's SGI that makes custom "Holorooms" that can fill a room with a hologram. It's like $100,000's though. Kinda neat.
I think you watch way too much startrek.

This plant has a tightly packed rosette of basal leaves, about 10 inches across. The leaves are oddly bumpy, and glabrous on both sides. |

Erodium sp |
Doesn't seem to match. |
My guess would be something in the mustard family. Looks like it might not be long before it starts flowering. Should be easier to ID then. |
Yup. I always get excited and try to ID early, because I like to go back later if it's something good. But those early rascals can be difficult :). Thanks lycopus. |
The shape and texture are reminiscent to me of a Senecio jacobaea which has had a dose of weedkiller. Is this a ridiculous notion? Bottom right are some dead flower heads which look like Asteraceae. Are they associated with this plant or the one next to it? |

Campbell Soup Company (NYSE:CPB) today reported its results for the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
First-Quarter Overview
- Reported Sales Increased 8 Percent; Organic Sales Increased 1 Percent
- Adjusted Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) Increased 5 Percent, 2 Percent Excluding the Acquisition of Bolthouse Farms
- U.S. Simple Meals Sales Grew 3 Percent, With Soup Sales Up 2 Percent; Earnings Increased 5 Percent
- U.S. Beverages Sales Declined 5 Percent; Earnings Comparable To a Year Ago
- Campbell Completed the Acquisition of Bolthouse Farms on Aug. 6, 2012
- Campbell Recorded Charges Related To the Previously Announced Sept. 2012 Restructuring Program
Net earnings for the quarter ended Oct. 28, 2012, were $245 million, or $0.78 per share, compared with $265 million, or $0.82 per share, in the prior year. The current quarter's reported net earnings included transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Bolthouse Farms, as well as charges associated with the Sept. 2012 restructuring program. Excluding these items impacting comparability, adjusted net earnings increased 5 percent to $279 million, and adjusted net earnings per share increased 7 percent to $0.88 in the current quarter. A detailed reconciliation of the reported financial information to the adjusted information is included at the end of this news release.
Denise Morrison, Campbell's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are encouraged by our performance in the first quarter and feel good about the progress we've made in executing our three growth strategies.
"In our largest business, U.S. Simple Meals, we generated sales growth both in U.S. Soup and in U.S. Sauces, driven by innovation in our base business and by new product introductions. Our recently acquired Bolthouse Farms business performed very well in the quarter, and we remain excited about the growth platform it provides Campbell in the packaged fresh foods category. We delivered continued solid performance at Pepperidge Farm in the crackers business, while our bakery business declined in the quarter. Our Asia Pacific business delivered good results, driven by improved performance in Australia and strong sales growth in Malaysia and Indonesia. In U.S. Beverages, our core business in original 'V8' vegetable juice and 'V8 V-Fusion' beverages continued to be challenged by slackening consumer demand."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

text: By Bill O'Neil Authorities in San Marcos will soon use cameras mounted on school buses to help them spot vehicles that illegally pass. San Marcos Police Chief Howard Williams told 550 KTSA News the program stems from an eye-opening study completed in that community. "While covering ten to maybe fifteen percent of bus route time over a five-month period--they counted over two-thousand violations" Williams said, adding the procedure will be a simple one. "If we verify violations, then the registered owner of the car (committing the violation) will be mailed a notice of violation, and a civil fine assessed of $300 for the violation" Williams said. The cameras aill be switched on Monday, February 17th--with citations beginning to show up in the mail within a few weeks.

McGovern, George S. (George Stanley) 1922-2012Overview
Publication Timeline
Most widely held works about
George S McGovern
Most widely held works by
George S McGovern
Abraham Lincoln
by George S McGovern
11 editions published between 2008 and 2009 in English and held by 1,437 WorldCat member libraries worldwide From the Publisher: America's greatest president, who rose to power in the country's greatest hour of need and whose vision saw the United States through the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln towers above the others who have held the office of president-the icon of greatness, the pillar of strength whose words bound up the nation's wounds. His presidency is the hinge on which American history pivots, the time when the young republic collapsed of its own contradictions and a new birth of freedom, sanctified by blood, created the United States we know today. His story has been told many times, but never by a man who himself sought the office of president and contemplated the awesome responsibilities that come with it. George S. McGovern-a Midwesterner, former U.S. senator, presidential candidate, veteran, and historian by training-offers his unique insight into our sixteenth president. He shows how Lincoln sometimes went astray, particularly in his restrictions on civil liberties, but also how he adjusted his sights and transformed the Civil War from a political dispute to a moral crusade. McGovern's account reminds us why we hold Lincoln in such esteem and why he remains the standard by which all of his successors are measured
The great coalfield war
by George S McGovern
7 editions published between 1972 and 1996 in English and held by 1,330 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Out of Iraq : a practical plan for withdrawal now
by George S McGovern
4 editions published in 2006 in English and held by 860 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "The authors present a detailed blueprint for U.S. withdrawal from Iraq that is bound to stir a national debate. Former senator George McGovern and William R. Polk, a leading authority on the Middle East, offer a detailed plan for a speedy troop withdrawal from Iraq. During the phased withdrawal, to begin on December 31, 2006, and to be completed by June 30, 2007, they recommend that the Iraq government engage the temporary services of an international stabilization force to police the country. Other elements in the withdrawal plan include an independent accounting of American expenditures of Iraqi funds, reparations to Iraqi civilians for lives lost and property destroyed, immediate release of all prisoners of war, the closing of American detention centers, and offering to void all contracts for petroleum exploration, development, and marketing made during the American occupation."--From source other than the Library of Congress

What it means to be a Democrat
by George S McGovern
5 editions published between 2011 and 2014 in English and held by 506 WorldCat member libraries worldwide A call to arms by the former presidential candidate that combines personal anecdotes and cultural critiques to remind liberals of their ideological compass and restore confidence. The author has been a leading figure of the Democratic Party for more than fifty years. From this true liberal comes a thoughtful examination of what being a Democrat really means. He admonishes current Democratic politicians for losing sight of their ideals as they subscribe to an increasingly centrist policy agenda. Applying his wide ranging knowledge and expertise on issues ranging from military spending to same sex marriage to educational reform, he stresses the importance of creating policies we can be proud of. Finally, with 2012 looming, this book offers a vision of the party's future in which ideological coherence and courage rule

One bright shining moment the forgotten summer of George McGovern
1 edition published in 2005 in English and held by 334 WorldCat member libraries worldwide This documentary retraces George McGovern's bold presidential campaign of 1972 - a grassroots campaign that fought for peace and justice, and positioned ideas and people first. However, what is remembered today as being the ultimate political defeat of the American Century may also have been its high watermark. The film poses this central question: what does the crushing electoral defeat of a man so well respected for his decency and intellect say about the electoral process, the American government, and more importantly, what does it say about the forces at work on the American people---then and now?
Social security and the golden age : an essay on the new American demographic
by George S McGovern
3 editions published in 2005 in English and held by 196 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "In this timely work, former senator George McGovern, points out that Social Security is not currently facing a crisis. McGovern discusses ways that we can maintain this program well into the future with just a few simple steps. More significantly, McGovern shows that when properly secured, aging Americans, who are often seen as the source of the alleged Social Security crisis, are actually one of our country's greatest assets. McGovern calls for a partnership across generations, one that will not only keep our most important of social insurance benefits intact, but will also provide many advantages to those over sixty-five and those who have much to learn from them."--BOOK JACKET

The Federation of Consumers and Service Organisations has appealed to Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) to operate buses from the central bus stand to Lalgudi, Samayapuram, and Manachanallur via the Chennai bypass road.
A representation presented at the recent consultative meeting of voluntary consumer organisations convened by the TNSTC, the federation urged the Corporation to restore ladies special buses to the BHEL from the city, and operate separate buses for school children during peak hours.
According to M.Sekaran, president of the federation, Corporation officials have assured that one service each to Lalgudi, Samayapuram and Manachanallur from the central bus stand would be operated soon on a trial basis, and if successful, more buses would be operated. The federation urged the Corporation to initiate appropriate steps to check accidents and conduct periodic medical and eye check-ups. The transport corporation should explore the feasibility of operating speed parcel service with assistance of some private partners to increase their revenue. It also demanded that the revised fares and stages be prominently displayed in all buses to prevent confusion.
The organisation demanded that all Thanjavur-bound buses halt at Senthaneerpuram. Similarly, buses operating on the Chennai and Salem route often skipped the old milk farm bus stop, and steps should be taken to ensure that they halted at the bus stop. Temperature control mechanism in air-conditioned buses was not functioning properly, it said.

There is a bit of aesthetic personification happening in the Button Down Light by which the inanimate fixture flaunts a fancy fastened seam along one side. All for the iconic appearance, the lampshade is actually made from a thin panel of curled steel rather than fabric and features a row of three studs that look like dress shirt buttons.
Slight slants to the top and bottom of the tapered bulb cover actually have it resembling the cuff of a collared shirt. On the other hand, this asymmetricality expresses a casual and even playful quality to the floor lamp. Even in its formal black or white, the Button Down Light by Germany's Studio Taschide maintains a lighthearted air about it.

Vigilant Citizen – March 26, 2011
Britney Spears is a pop icon who simultaneously embodies the glamour of stardom and the destructive side of fame. She has reached the heights of super-stardom and the lows of tabloid humiliation. Her erratic behavior led to numerous questions regarding her mental stability, but most are unaware of the most important fact: She is a product of Illuminati mind control. In fact, the video for "Hold it Against Me" symbolically portrays the manipulation and mind control she goes through. This article will look at significant events in Britney Spears' life and at the hidden meaning of the video "Hold it Against Me".
Britney Spears is the prototype of the modern pop star: young, sexy, controversial and completely manipulated by the entertainment industry. She has been literally groomed since childhood by industry execs to become a pop star. From working in Broadway at 8 years old and the Mickey Mouse Club at 12 to becoming a world-renowned pop star at 17, Britney is a true "showbiz child". Today, most agree that she has reached the status of pop icon. Rolling Stone magazine wrote that Britney is "one of the most controversial and successful female vocalists of the 21st century," and "spearheaded the rise of post-millennial teen pop".
Despite her seven hit albums and her iconic status, most will remember Britney Spears not for her music, but for the drama surrounding go here :- http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=23020

'Pompeii' Review: Is the Mountain Supposed to Be More Charismatic Than the Cast?
Movie Reviews By Rob Hunter on February 21, 2014 | Be the First To CommentFor the dozens of people out there who love the Starz series, Spartacus, but just wish it had none of that graphic sex and violence nonsense… have I got a movie for you. Milo is just a boy when he witnesses Roman soldiers slaughter his family and his people in 62 A.D., and seventeen years later the now man-sized Milo (Kit Harington) is a slave turned gladiator known only as The Celt who entertains the empire in backwater arena brawls. The latest stop on his bloody tour is the waterside city of Pompeii, and on the way into town he shares a meet cute over a dying horse with Cassia (Emily Browning), the daughter of some high-ranking Pompeians. Unfortunately for them both, someone else has his eye on Cassia too, and to make matters worse, he's the same man who led the slaughter of Milo's people. Oh, and they're also all living in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius in the days leading up to its devastating eruption. Pompeii wants to be Gladiator meets Volcano with a love story crammed in for good measure, and it succeeds to the degree that it blatantly rips off Gladiator, sets its action around an erupting volcano, and features paper-thin characters who fall in love in their first few minutes together. Director Paul W. S. Anderson's latest isn't a good movie, but it's also not so bad that it's ironically good. So that's unfortunate.
New Trailer for Paul W.S. Anderson's 'Pompeii' Is So Hot Right Now
Movie News By Samantha Wilson on December 5, 2013 | Comments (4)In the list of things Jon Snow knows nothing about, we can add "how volcanoes work" to the mix. In the story of the doomed city at the foot of the mountain, Kit Harington is the dashing hero who must swoop in to save his love (Emily Browning) and his gladiator friend trapped in the coliseum when Mount Vesuvius starts spewing. Because nothing says "a romance for the ages" like a ferocious natural disaster that claimed the lives of approximately 16,000 people in a scorching, merciless death (seriously, the eruption caused Pompeii's citizens to "flash-heat" in an instant when a volcanic surge caused temperatures to reach 570°F), Paul W.S. Anderson's Pompeii will hopefully focus less on the kissin' and more on the fleeing.
'Plush' Trailer Tells us More About Emily Browning's Latest Turn as a Sexy Bad Girl
Movie News By Nathan Adams on September 9, 2013 | Comments (1)Though most of us first met Emily Browning as the cute young lady in the family-friendly Lemony Snicket movie, in more recent years she's grown up quite a bit, and has now become known for taking edgier, more adult roles. That's a nice way of saying that she got hot, real hot, and she's been taking advantage of her hotness by starring in sex-soaked exploitation fare like Sucker Punch and Sleeping Beauty. Like chocolate and peanut butter, Emily Browning and sexual overtones just seem to go together well, so the actress looks to be keeping the ball rolling with her next film, Plush, which sees her starring as a sexy young rock star who's being seduced over to the dark side by a swarthy lothario. Already we've seen a red band teaser for the film that was little more than a bunch of sexy imagery set to a song, but now a full trailer for the film has been released, and it's one that gives us a better look at the story that Plush is going to tell alongside all its titillation. What we've got here is some good, old-fashioned stalker horror that seems like it would look appropriate sitting on a shelf next to early 90s fare like Poison Ivy and The Crush. Enjoy.
Red Band Teaser for 'Plush' Is More of a Confusing Music Video
Movie News By Samantha Wilson on September 2, 2013 | Comments (1)It seems fitting that the teaser trailer for the story of a deeply troubled rock star is fashioned in the style of a music video more than anything else. But though young Hayley's living her own personal episode of Behind the Music in Catherine Hardwicke's Plush, her story at least deserves a trailer with some dialogue. Hayley (Emily Browning) is a rising rock star who swiftly dives off the deep end when her brother and bandmate overdoses. But while she's in the midst of her downward spiral of drugs, booze, bad bleach jobs, and sex (Did you get that she's sexual? They really want you to understand that she's sexual), she finds inspiration and friendship (the sex kind) in the guitarist hired to replace her brother (Xavier Samuel). Check out the trailer for yourself here:
Paul W.S. Anderson's 'Pompeii' Trailer: What, No Gatling Gun?
Movie News By Scott Beggs on August 22, 2013 | Be the First To CommentOne of the best things about Paul W.S. Anderson's Three Musketeers trailer was that ridiculous gatling gun, so if he was willing to bring that kind of tech to 17th century, why not offer it up to the 1st? The weapons of Pompeii are all swords and fire, but maybe he's saving the heavy anachronistic artillery for later. We can only hope. Also curiously missing is Milla Jovovich flipping around and kicking people. It hardly looks like an Anderson movie at all. So what does it have? A bunch of people encased in ash, Emily Browning kissing Kit Harington with gusto and one pissed-off volcano. Check out the trailer for yourself:
'Magic Magic' Trailer: Watch Michael Cera Totally Creep Out Juno Temple
Movie News By Nathan Adams on June 11, 2013 | Comments (1)If there's any one reason for you to give Magic Magic a chance, it's that it's the new thriller from Chilean director Sebastián Silva, who turned a lot of heads with 2009's The Maid, but hasn't really had the chance to break through to the mainstream yet. Fortunately for all of us though, there isn't just one reason to give Magic Magic a chance. There are many. Not the least of which is that its cast includes ethereal beauties like Juno Temple and Emily Browning, as well as perennial weirdo Michael Cera, who seems to be using his usual penchant for social awkwardness to go in a totally fresh, dangerous direction in the trailer for this new film. Looking for that rare movie that's beautifully shot and wonderfully acted, but is still just a good, old-fashioned horror tale that's going to creep you the heck out? Then Magic Magic might be just the thing for you. Cera's blank creep face is enough to give you the willies alone. Click through to give the trailer a gander.
Casting Couch: Quvenzhané Wallis Confirmed For 'Annie,' Matt Reeves Recruits Familiar Face for 'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,' and More
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on February 25, 2013 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Casting Couch? It's full of casting news, just full of it. Today you can find out what's next for foreign heartthrobs Michael Roskam and Marion Cotillard. Quvenzhané Wallis has been in the news a lot lately. Not only did the adorable nine-year-old stir up some controversy at Sunday's Oscar ceremony by skinning a puppy and wearing it as a purse, she's also been the subject of rumors regarding the Will Smith-produced remake of Annie. After Smith's daughter Willow dropped out of the film's starring role because she's probably in her twenties now or something, it was rumored that Wallis would be stepping in to take her place. Deadline now confirms that this is indeed the case, and Wallis is all set to become the new face of everyone's favorite orphan. Easy A's Will Gluck will direct her.
Sebastián Silva's Juno Temple and Michael Cera-Starring Thriller Finds Distribution
Movie News By Nathan Adams on February 17, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhen I first heard about Sebastián Silva's next movie, Magic, Magic, I had yet to see any of the director's work, but I was excited at the cast he had assembled, because it was made up mostly of hot young actresses. Since then, some of that has changed. If you're not yet familiar with Silva, go check out his 2009 film The Maid. It's a movie that managed to be tense and dramatic just by telling the story of an aging maid worried about losing her position in a prominent Chilean household because of the presence of a new, young au pair. In my opinion, it proved the man to have a sure hand behind the camera, and it put him firmly on the list of directors to watch. Go ahead, I'll wait… Okay, now that we're all on the same page, let's start getting excited for his new (and apparently newly untitled) thriller that stars some more familiar Hollywood names like Michael Cera, Juno Temple, Emily Browning, and Maria Full of Grace's Catalina Sandino Moreno.
Review: 'Sleeping Beauty' Rests Uncomfortably and Unsuccessfully Between Nightmare and Wet Dream
Movie Reviews By Rob Hunter on January 31, 2012 | Comments (3)Film is a powerful medium, and the best ones can make you feel strongly one way or the other about fictional characters and their make-believe lives. These people exist only on the screen, and yet we can feel joy, fear, love, hatred and so much more for them as if they were living and breathing beside us. Most movies never accomplish this feat. And Sleeping Beauty is no different. Instead Julia Leigh's debut film manages something decidedly unique. The lead character is passive, bland and as emotionally inspiring as a wash cloth, but the actress who plays her? You just may find yourself feeling bad, embarrassed and fearful for her. Lucy (Emily Browning) is a college student like many others. She attends class during the day and at night works in a restaurant or office and occasionally volunteers for paid medical experiments. Sure, some nights she heads to swanky bars to do lines of coke with Asian women in the bathroom, but mostly she works hard. It never seems to be enough though as she's always behind in her rent and at risk of being booted out by her roommates. Until she responds to an ad for a silver service waitress to work private parties. The interview is brief but invasive, and it comes with two warnings. Don't make a career of this. And indiscretion will not be tolerated.
A Sex Slave Related Giveaway! Enter to See 'Sleeping Beauty' For Free on SundanceNOW
Features By Scott Beggs on November 9, 2011 | Comments (37)Remember the time in college when you were strapped for cash and ended up working as a subconscious prostitute where anyone with a few bucks could have their way with you in your sleep? Yeah, we had that wiped from our memory too. Thankfully, Julia Leigh's new film Sleeping Beauty won't let us forget. Here's the trailer if you want to refresh yourself and get some context for the big spooning image of Emily Browning and your grandpa to the right. It hit Cannes with a mixed vengeance, and it should be in theaters (limited style), but it's also available right this second on SundanceNOW. That is, if you like paying for things. Since we don't, we're giving away a free online ticket to see the movie through that wonderful website. How do you enter? How do you win? Glad you asked.
Reel Sex: Getting Frisky with the Fall Releases
Features By Gwen Reyes on October 19, 2011 | Comments (2)As the temperatures turn just the slightest bit colder and the fall colors settle in the landscape (if you're lucky enough to live near trees), we should start directing our film focus to the fall movie season. We love summer for its mind-numbing fun, but the last season of the year tends to offer some of the most vulnerable, honest, and captivating films (you know, just in time for that other "big O"). Fall supplies films meant to scandalize our minds and even our naughty bits, and there is nothing wrong with that. But with so many films and film festivals to choose from between now and December, it becomes overwhelming to sort through all the goodness being dispensed our way. Lucky for you, my love of highlighting full-frontal male nudity and questionable sexual conduct happens to pay off for a change. Below you'll find a helpful collection of five sultry features sure to stimulate your brain and your nethers.
Reel Sex: Underaged Sexual Taboo in 'Kick-Ass' and 'Sucker Punch'
Features By Gwen Reyes on October 5, 2011 | Comments (5)Like many of my fellow Rejects, I am currently recovering from the insanity that was Fantastic Fest 2011. Over the course of four days I viewed a relatively tame amount of films (10 – I'm not a champ this time around), each one, even the crap ones, expanding my movie watching mind. It shouldn't come as a surprise that I selected the most sexually involved films I could, pausing briefly for a palate cleanser of adorable in A Boy and His Samurai, and I look forward to sharing some of my insights on the loneliness of loving a sex doll in the coming weeks. But for now, let's jump right into the eccentricities of loving something we shouldn't. As a sex writer, I'm constantly asked to voice my opinion on any frisky business ranging from the sweet nibbles of a new lover all the way to the "am I weird for liking this and that?" Typically, I provide a sort of get-out-of-jail-free card by giving a basic of sex-positive response along the lines of "you like what you like" or "your kink isn't my kink, but your kink is okay" (unless the kink involved is so taboo I have to flip a table and walk away). But last week the same topic kept coming up: The sex appeal of the bad girl. Yes, there's nothing new in feeling attracted to a girl who can beat you up, take your money, and then kiss you on the cheek before she leaves […]
Just because the hot girls in Zach Snyder's visually assaulting film Sucker Punch aren't old enough to drink, nothing is stopping you from watching the movie and playing this drinking game… unless you're as old as the main characters of the film. While Sucker Punch has its ups and downs, it's a visually interesting flick with plenty of fishnets, stockings, push-up bras and a bad Russian accent courtesy of Carla Gugino. What's stopping you from watching it on DVD or Blu-ray and knocking back a couple sips of your favorite spirit? You know you want to.
Trio of Hot Actresses Won't Be Witches in 'Magic, Magic'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on May 17, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhen I hear that there's a movie in the works called Magic, Magic I instantly think that it's probably a movie about young witches, something going after all of that mystical-teenagers in love money. Well, despite the fact that it has just cast three hot, young actresses in key roles, Magic, Magic doesn't appear to be that at all. According to Variety, "The pic revolves around a girl vacationing with her friends in a remote area of Chile who slowly starts losing her mental faculties." Joining the already announced Michael Cera is Suckerpunch's Emily Browning, Jack and Diane's Juno Temple, and Maria Full of Grace's Catalina Sandino Moreno. That's one lucky Michael Cera. Magic, Magic is being directed by Sebastien Silva, a Chilean director who has seen success with small films La vida me mata, The Maid, and Old Cats. I haven't seen any of Silva's work myself, so I can't vouch for its quality, but casting three gorgeous actresses for his new one is a pretty good strategy at getting my attention from here on. Production is scheduled to start late in the summer, so presumably we'll be hearing more about this one soon. Until then I'm going to make it a point to stop thinking that I'm going to be seeing a movie about teenage witches every time I read the title.
Cannes 2011 Review: Julie Leigh's Sleeping Beauty
Cannes Film Festival By Simon Gallagher on May 11, 2011 | Comments (1)The second film of the day, following Midnight in Paris this morning, Sleeping Beauty is the only Australian film included this year, starring Emily Browning (who hopefully won't be a high-profile casualty of Snyder's sickly Sucker Punch) as a University student drawn into a mysterious hidden world of beauty and desire. Or at least that's what the marketing material says. Regardless of what they position this erotic, chiller had already been picking up a lot of buzz, possibly because the official synopsis that I read as part of the bulging press pack (stuffed lovingly into my press PO box this morning) suggested a film about a girl who willingly becomes a Sleeping Beauty – or someone who takes a sleeping pill and allows herself to have "erotic experiences" with "old men" that she has no control over. Funny that, because Browning's whole role in Sucker Punch can be labelled as overly eroticized and submissive too. Zing!
Movie News After Dark: World War Z, Posters, Posters, Posters, and One Transformers Fan Loses His Shit
Movie News By Neil Miller on April 29, 2011 | Comments (6)What is Movie News After Dark? It's a movie news column that is content with entertaining you on a nightly basis with the best links and tidbits the web has to offer. But in reality, it wishes that it could be out there fighting for the side of humanity in the great world war against the zombie invasion. It has big dreams, this nightly feature. As you know, there are three things I can't avoid writing about in this here column: Michael Bay movies, Doctor Who and World War Z. The third is perhaps one of the greatest texts ever written about the zombie apocalypse. What I did not know is that it was almost turned into an awesome video game, as this Kotaku investigative report suggests. As you can see from tonight's headline image, it would have been very cool.
Emily Browning Becomes a Sexual Plaything in the 'Sleeping Beauty' Trailer
Movie News By Scott Beggs on April 14, 2011 | Comments (13)The last film Emily Browning was in featured her exploited, stripped down to lingerie and kicking a dragon's ass. For Sleeping Beauty, it looks like she'll be exploited and stripped down without a dragon in sight. The film from writer/director Julia Leigh was selected for Cannes in competition, and tells the story of a young student (played by Browning) who takes a job where men fulfill their sexual fantasies with her while she's asleep. Of course, the trailer is sufficiently haunting, and it spells out a potentially bleak film that explores a person as object. Check it out for yourself:
Interview: Zack Snyder on the Sexuality and Fanboy Hate of 'Sucker Punch'
Features By Jack Giroux on March 27, 2011 | Comments (28)Sucker Punch feels like Zack Snyder's response to all those awkward and sexist nerds he and his cast deal with in Hall-H nearly every year. You know, the ones that can't help but to shout out how "hot" the actresses are during the panel, and without actually asking any real questions or treating them respectfully. Those nerds are the sideline oppressors of Sucker Punch: the revolting-looking Chef and Mayor, the ones that love seeing their women in degrading and sexualized outfits, but don't care about how or why they're in said outfits. As long as they get their joy out of sexy women doing sexy things, and nothing outside the basic titillation, they'll be happy. This is the subtext that many seem to not talking about from Sucker Punch. Snyder's work has always been divisive, but never has one of his films been this polarizing, and he knows that. Snyder is well-aware of the response the film has been getting, and he's the type of self-aware filmmaker who probably expected this type of reaction from day one of shooting. The fact that Sucker Punch isn't a film for everyone surely must have caused problems along the way, and as Snyder states, the test-screening process was no help in that regard.
Empowerment and Exploitation of 'Sucker Punch' Are in the Gaze of the Beholder
Features By Scott Beggs on March 27, 2011 | Comments (30)This piece contains spoilers for Sucker Punch. If you haven't seen the movie yet, go watch it before diving in. Once the first images hit, or when the first synopsis hit, or maybe even when Zack Snyder dreamed up the concept for Sucker Punch ten years ago – a time bomb was set to explode twice, and it finally did this weekend. The first explosion was the basis for the existence of the movie, and it continued exploding many, many times during the runtime. The second was the question of feminism. Now that the movie is out, it has also exploded. The reactions from before the film was released varied, and they still do. Some see it as feminism merged with geek culture (which assumes geek culture isn't sexless to begin with). Some see it as an affront to the advancement of women parading in thigh high boots. One who gives a strong argument for the latter is Angie Han of /film, who writes the hell out of an editorial called "On Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch: Why Ass-Kicking and Empowerment Aren't Always the Same Thing." You should absolutely go read it before reading this, although I'll do my best to condense her arguments (in a fair way) in order to respectfully counter them.
10 Years Gone: Sucker Punch's Long Journey to the Screen
Features By Robert Fure on March 25, 2011 | Comments (2)Right around ten years ago Zack Snyder had an idea. An idea that would come to take up about thirty seconds of Sucker Punch, but lend to the film its main character, its title, and its sex appeal. That original idea revolved around a girl named Baby Doll who escaped into the recesses of her mind while dancing for some very bad men. He then partnered with his school buddy Steve Shibuya to start working that into a script. Things were probably going pretty okay on that, but they were about to get a lot better when Snyder found himself helming Dawn of the Dead, my personal choice for best zombie movie ever. You heard that right, Romero. Sitting next to Snyder at the press junket, the man did no less than doodle an X-Wing on a pad of paper while talking, as if he needed anything more than Watchmen to solidify his nerd-cred. Before talking about the visually complex Sucker Punch, Snyder, sitting alongside wife and producing partner Debbie, the director took a moment to give us a glimpse into his filmmaking past, revealing as one might expect he was an early overachiever. One of his student films in the basic introductory film classes was a World War I epic, complete with trenches dug by a rented backhoe. Before you get antsy, I'll tell you what he said about his upcoming Superman movie: nothing. As in, he's not allowed to speak of it. Duh. What he did express was […]

Hey guys, I know for a lot of you graduation is coming up super fast, and it seems completely absurd that it's been almost a year ago since I was in that boat. I well remember the two options presented to me:
1) Get a studio job. Preferably close to home.
2) Move back in with my parents. Possibly get a day job or something.
I just wanted to remind ...whoever is reading this... that there are about a gazillion alternatives. In fact, any possible train of actions you can conceive of is an option. It's hard to think of options not presented to you as options, but you really can go anywhere and do anything. This is the only time in our lives when we don't have any greater obligations- we don't have a wife and kids to provide for, no company that would collapse without us, our bodies can handle sleeping on a springy old couch for a while. This is EXACTLY when you should take a gigantic risk because the only thing you actually NEED to "make it work" is perseverance and optimism. (I'm not going to lie, a pair of devoted and generous parents doesn't hurt while you make the transition, and for the record I know times are tough but at least ASK them before you assume that they wouldn't help you out with money stuff for a while.)
I'm an absolute mess, and I'm only about 50% self-sufficient, but that proportion is growing every month and so is my confidence and the one thing I've NEVER doubted is that jumping on a plane to the other side of the country the day after graduation was exactly the right choice for me.
Pep talk over. I just wanted to get my 2 cents in there since I'm certain it's on a lot of y'all's minds. Best of luck!
