<description><![CDATA[MAGIA, ESPADA Y FANTASÍA (VI) La segunda parte de la monumental adaptación a la pantalla de la obra ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://39escalones.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/torres.jpg"><img src="http://39escalones.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/torres.jpg" alt="" title="torres" width="497" height="369" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3877" /></a></p>
<p>MAGIA, ESPADA Y FANTASÍA (VI)</p>
<p>La segunda parte de la monumental adaptación a la pantalla de la obra de J.R.R. Tolkien por Peter Jackson y su equipo da comienzo en el punto en que la Comunidad del Anillo se disuelve: Frodo y Sam siguen su camino hacia Mordor, Merry y Pipin han caído prisioneros de los orcos de Sauron, y Aragorn, Legolas y Gimli, dejando a los pequeños portadores del anillo que encuentren su propio destino, van tras los cautivos para liberarlos, mientras Sauron y su aliado Saruman siguen acumulando fuerzas con las que aplastar a las razas libres de la Tierra Media, desunidas y parapetadas tras sus débiles defensas&#8230;</p>
<p>Tras el impactante efecto sorpresa de la primera entrega, <em>Las dos torres</em> ofrece más de lo mismo (pero peor) en la forma, aunque empieza la decadencia en cuanto al fondo. Como dijimos en su momento en esta misma sección, a medida que la trilogía avanza, sus grandes virtudes se van poco a poco diluyendo y los pequeños inconvenientes del primer capítulo, minimizados ante la grandiosidad del conjunto, van creciendo hasta poco a poco adueñarse de este puente hacia la conclusión. El problema, precisamente, es la entrega incondicional a la espectacularidad de las formas y el paulatino descuido de unas, ya de por sí, demasiado elementales, lineales, esquemáticas cuestiones de fondo (personajes, psicología, motivaciones, reacciones ante los hechos&#8230;) siguiendo, obviamente, las pautas marcadas por Tolkien pero haciendo que la película, exactamente igual que su antecesora y su continuación, dependa en exclusiva de los conocimientos previos del espectador sobre la obra literaria a fin de que pueda entender la lógica de acontecimientos y personajes, sin que se trate de un producto cinematográfico autónomo. <!--more--> A ello no es ajena la introducción de las grandes batallas y de las escenas de acción propias de la historia en las que la entrega a la espectacularidad es total, y en las que se desvirtúan algunos logros de la primera parte. Por ejemplo, donde hay un ingente esfuerzo por utilizar el maquillaje y la caracterización para la construcción de las diversas criaturas &#8220;no humanas&#8221; y de ambientación y dirección artística para los espacios, comienza a haber demasiada labor de computadora a fin de recrear enormes ejércitos en movimiento, espacios abiertos o decorados en los que transcurran los combates, auténticamente de videojuego por más espectaculares que sean, y también en el momento de provocar un buen número de efectos de la violencia sobre individuos y objetos. La batalla principal es tan grandiosa como artificiosa, con algún que otro guiño que supera lo humorístico para adentrarse en lo ridículo, completamente fuera del tono general de la historia, y las múltiples y complejas tramas paralelas que como un mosaico van salpicando la narración y cambiando el punto de interés y de tensión a cada momento, unidas a la excesiva duración del film, hacen que el ritmo vaya desde la lentitud más extrema al servicio del crecimiento de una tensión no siempre lograda (porque hay que entender que al igual que se depende del libro para presuponer aspectos de los personajes el espectador ya conoce el desenlace de los hechos sobre los que se pretende cargar emoción) hasta la vertiginosa sucesión de acontecimientos acelerados que siembran la película de altibajos y lagunas de emoción.</p>
<p>El problema es que la ingenuidad y expectación del discurso de la primera parte se torna aquí en una oda a las imágenes animadas desprovistas de discurso de cualquier tipo o, lo que es peor, intentando alcanzar la sublimidad de ciertos mensajes a través de la mera repetición de frases y situaciones pretendidamente trascendentes y decisivas (cuando, insistimos, el lector de Tolkien, espectador a quien va dirigida la película, no como intención, pero sí como construcción, ya sabe qué va a pasar y qué no) pero que, a través de ese culto a lo entendido como modernidad e innovación visuales, son en el fondo de una emotividad vacía, de una emoción nula, sin una aventura real, sin un riesgo o un peligro que realmente cruce al otro lado de la pantalla, sin unos personajes vivos por los que podamos sentir una empatía que vaya más allá de lo que los personajes dicen representar, sin llegar a sentir algo por los personajes en sí.</p>
<p>La película acumula historias que transcurren de manera paralela pero no por ello gana en solidez, muy al contrario, es una forma de perder pulso, de deshilvanar un puzzle que en la primera entrega había quedado ensamblado de manera aceptable. Se vuelve facilona, vulgar, reiterativa, simple y lineal, por más que visualmente pretenda todo lo contrario, resultar majestuosa, abigarrada, rica, espectacular; busca enganchar por la belleza y el impacto de imágenes grandilocuentes, olvidándose de atraparnos por el cariz de los acontecimientos que cuenta, y es ahí donde, a pesar de que engancha y obliga a seguirla, apuesta por explotar los elementos más pobres y simplones del lenguaje cinematográfico y busca convencer a través de algo, en el fondo, tan fácil como es apabullar, embaucar por aplastamiento.</p>
<p>Habiendo alcanzado así la trilogía la cúspide de lo que podía ofrecer, buena parte de esta segunda entrega y toda la tercera parte son un lento caer hacia la superficialidad en el discurso y el tributo a las formas animadas por ordenador en detrimento de la historia misma, al metraje excesivo en la creencia de que la mejor adaptación es la que cuenta todo (ya dijo Voltaire que el secreto de aburrir consiste en decirlo todo), de que a más, siempre es mejor. Y el cine nos ha dado gran cantidad de muestras, seguramente las mejores, de que lo mejor suele ser siempre lo contrario.</p>

<p>Director: Neill Blomkamp<br />
Writer(s): Neill Blomkamp<br />
              Terri Tatchell </p>
<p>Starring: Sharlto Copley, Jason Cope, Nathalie Boltt</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/6nL95UptIqg&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/6nL95UptIqg&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Thank you once again Peter Jackson for being a part of amazing movies. Neill Blomkamp is the new to the scene director that Peter Jackson had hand picked to direct the movie adaptation of the popular video game series Halo.  After a lot of work on the project Neill Blomkamp left it alone and was then given 30 million dollars from peter Jackson to make any project he wanted to do.</p>
<p>Peter Jackson has shown much faith on Neill Blomkamp as a director and in doing so it has paid off with one of the best summer movies, and definitely one of the better movies to come out in 2009.</p>
<p>District 9 is about a race of aliens that we dub &#8220;Prawns&#8221; comes to earth and as humans we expected some form of attack or hostility from them.  The aliens turn out to be refugees and we allow them to live on earth but in a run down area known as District 9.  The Government then decide they wish to move the aliens to a new area but require their written permission to do so, the new area comes across as being a form of concentration camp.</p>
<p>I applaud the work of everybody involved with this movie because it was done brilliantly.  The movie at times appears to be part documentary and at other times seems almost like a news team following the happenings involved.  District 9 did not need to use Hollywood hot shots to star in it to draw people in, the reviews from fellow critics and the movie going public itself drew enough attention to District 9.</p>
<p>Neill Blomkamp should be proud of himself because he has created something special with this movie.  District 9 deserves any and all attention from movie goers.  I would consider it a mistake for Neill Blomkamp to return to the helm of Halo as I feel he is better off with original ideas of his own.  </p>
<p>All and all District 9 is a movie that is not only worth checking out, but would be best served in the ranks of your movie collection as well.</p>
<p>My Rating: 90%<br />

<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not really a Mark Wahlberg fan. As a matter of  fact, I think he is one of the worst actor]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://popcornandasoda.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/039_47599mark-wahlberg-in-rock-star-posters.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-806" title="039_47599~Mark-Wahlberg-in-Rock-Star-Posters" src="http://popcornandasoda.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/039_47599mark-wahlberg-in-rock-star-posters.jpg?w=237" alt="" width="237" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;m not really a Mark Wahlberg fan. As a matter of  fact, I think he is one of the worst actors for hire today. He has one style&#8230;and that is intense. If he&#8217;s not intense, he&#8217;s not good. So when he is in a movie like &#8220;Shooter&#8221; or &#8220;Three Kings&#8221;, where he can be in fighting mode, he&#8217;s not bad. But you put him in a drama? Boooring. Except for maybe &#8220;Boogie Nights&#8221;, but that was more of an ensemble film and he IS kinda boring in that movie also.</p>
<p>So Wahlberg has very little to offer and I see that he is playing the father role in the upcoming Peter Jackson film, &#8220;The Lovely Bones.&#8221; So now I need something&#8230;ANYTHING&#8230;to show me that he CAN actually act. Because after seeing &#8220;The Happening&#8221; last summer, I have my serious doubts that he can possibly be the best choice for the father in such a serious film based on a very serious book. So, on someone&#8217;s recommendation, I decided to check out &#8220;Rock Star.&#8221; And now I am pretty sure that his role in &#8220;The Lovely Bones&#8221; is gonna be a disaster.</p>
<p>But we&#8217;ll have to wait to see about that. What I can say about &#8220;Rock Star&#8221; is that it&#8217;s not bad. And it&#8217;s a truly great role for Wahlberg! He IS the star in this movie and he plays the role well enough. The only problem is&#8230;it&#8217;s not a really deep role. It&#8217;s a single note role about a guy who has a dream to be the lead singer of a band and eventually he becomes the lead singer. There is much drama between he and his girlfriend (Jennifer Aniston), he and his tribute bandmates and he and the band he joins called &#8220;Steel Dragon.&#8221; Eventually it all gets worked out and the movie ends in a tight little package where everyone gets what they want and all is well in &#8220;Rock Star&#8221; land. It&#8217;s not a bad film at all (I actually really enjoyed it!) and, as you can imagine, it has a really great soundtrack. But there is not a lot more to it than that.</p>
<p>So &#8220;Rock Star&#8221; is good date movie fare, but I would hardly call it a &#8220;drama&#8221;. So now I&#8217;m concerned for &#8220;The Lovely Bones&#8221;. I love the book and there is so much talent in the film with Jackson directing and stars such as Stanley Tucci, Susan Sarandon &#38; Racehl Weisz, that I worry that he might drag the whole thing down to mediocrity. Which would be sad.</p>
<p>Overall Rating: <strong>B<br />
</strong>Wahlberg&#8217;s Performance: <strong>B<br />
</strong>Odds that Wahlberg will drag down &#8220;The Lovely Bones&#8221;: <strong>More than likely</strong></p>

<description><![CDATA[When I say Peter Jackson, what do you think of? Hobbits? Giant Apes? Maybe if you&#8217;re confused,]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignleft" style="margin:10px;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d7/District_nine_ver2.jpg" alt="" width="215" height="318" />When I say <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Jackson">Peter Jackson</a>, what do you think of? Hobbits? Giant Apes? Maybe if you&#8217;re confused, one of the long-lost Jackson 5? Whatever you may be thinking, I wonder if it matches up to the critical acclaim of his newest film alongside <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neill_Blomkamp">Neill Blomkamp</a>, &#8216;<em>District 9</em>&#8216;. Now I know you&#8217;re wondering what this is about, that is, if you haven&#8217;t seen the trailers; movie posters, or heard of the hype from your friends. This somewhat of a masterpiece is a unique blend of E.T, Crank and Transformers, in the sense that the film&#8217;s focal point is primarily regarding an alien race, dubbed &#8216;<em>the prawns</em>&#8216; hunted by humans after years of being chained to earth and the realization that they&#8217;re the good guys. Let&#8217;s not forget the intense blood splatters and giant alien powered robots, shall we?</p>
<p>After countless alien renditions over the years, none have the attributes which <em>District 9</em> so proudly shows, with it&#8217;s irresistible to watch docu-faux start, following on through to its comic genius turned crushing storyline and the underlying essence of E.T and Blade Runner crushed up into an original crazy cocktail of consumers desires. With enough scenes to keep you on the edge of your seat, cheering inside, or flinching in fear, its to be said that <em>District 9</em> is one of the more anticipated and impressive films of 2009. In fact enough excitement has been caused that fans are flustered at the thought of a sequel, which is heavily hinted throughout the film. Everything a film lover could want is encapsulated within this gem of a sci-fi, from radiating blue lightning explosions to the projectile decompresser built into the kick ass biologically powered alien robot suit, or if you&#8217;ve failed to notice, a huge, hulking alien mothership over a city. Anything else? Yes actually, a lot of historical background. Whilst <em>District 9</em> may or may not have been a real event, there were events that inspired it, such as the forced removal of over 60,000 inhabitants of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_Six,_Cape_Town">Distict Six</a>, Cape Town. Not only that, the film explores varied controversial issues including xenophobia and social segregation.</p>
<p>In all the films glory, stars <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharlto_Copley">Sharlto Copley</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Cope">Jason Cope</a> have been thrown into the limelight where anyone can identify the fact that <em>District 9</em> has ignited a forest fire of potential for their future careers. Throughout the film, Copley showed a tremendous ability to improvise dialogue and Cope took on more than 4 separate roles, giving grand performances of the films protagonists Wikus van de Merwe  and Chistopher Johnson. Most notably out of everything is the dedication they showed to perfecting their characters, making their performances both realistic and full of panache. After watching <em>District 9</em>, I was admittedly one of the fans that were hoping for a sequel, with several theories as to how they go about it already fresh in my mind as the credits started to roll, Blompkamp expressed much enthusiasm as the thought of a sequel and he stated in an interview with Rotten Tomatoes: &#8220;<em>I haven&#8217;t thought of a story yet but if people want to see another one, I&#8217;d love to do it.</em>&#8221; <em>District 9</em> is an alien epic, worthy of a place on any collectors or conspirators shelf, a must see.</p>

I was watching Revenge of The Nerds the over night, and was struck with how much casual nudity was included in eighties comedy. A lot more than now! And also how much more violent movies seem to be now. </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">That was illustrated by this article from Stuff  <a href="http://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/film/3072342/Peter-Jackson-asked-to-up-the-agony" target="_blank">Peter Jackson asked to up the agony</a>. After test showings of his new movie The Lovely Bones Peter felt he needed to up the gore and suffering.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;Jackson told Reuters he was taken aback to find that in early screenings audiences &#8220;were simply not satisfied&#8221; with a scene of one character&#8217;s death.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;They wanted far more violence,&#8221; Jackson said, so the Lord of the Rings director went back to the editing room to &#8220;basically add more violence and suffering&#8221;.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Isn&#8217;t the story horrific enough? That just seems wrong&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">The EIC and myself think if there is going to be more of anything it should be external skin and not internal organs!</p>

<p><!--more-->I dont remember this book being a &#8220;thriller.&#8221; I read it when I was 12 on vacation in Hawaii. The owners of the condo we stay at in Maui had The Lovely Bones and Lucky. I read both and ultimately I think I liked The Lovely Bones more, but honestly I cannot remember much of it now. My memory of Lucky is actually stronger, maybe it&#8217;s because it took place on the Syracuse University campus, and thats where my sister went to college.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also interesting that Pete Jackson is directing this. I&#8217;m interested to see it just for that fact.</p>

<p>I saw Woody Harrelson on the View a few days ago. His liberal, hippiness is pretty awesome. He is completely against the war yet he does this movie, I think it shows hes an open minded person.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.basiliomartinpatino.com/film07.htm"><img class="alignleft" title="Cartel de La seducción del caos" src="http://www.basiliomartinpatino.com/carteles/07seduccion.jpg" alt="Marsillach es el narrador" width="223" height="309" /></a>Mi primera toma de contacto como trabajador para el Pabellón de España fue la <a title="Noticia de la presentación" href="http://www.expo-int.com/WebPortal/SEEI/Paginas/Prensa/Nota.page?Content=/SEEI/Contenidos/SalaPrensa/Notas_de_Prensa/Isabel_Coixet_Basilio_Patino_Bigas_Luna_dise%C3%B1an_contenidos_Expo_Shanghai_2010.content" target="_blank">rueda de prensa de presentación</a> de los creadores de los contenidos de las tres salas expositivas, la cual se llevó a cabo en la sede de la Academia de Cine en Madrid. Durante dicha rueda se anunció que serían tres directores de cine españoles los que pondrían su sello creador a las distintas salas. La terna estaba compuesta por <a title="La página de Isabel Coixet" href="http://www.clubcultura.com/clubcine/clubcineastas/isabelcoixet/index.htm" target="_blank">Isabel Coixet</a>, <a title="La página Bigas Luna" href="http://www.clubcultura.com/clubcine/clubcineastas/bigas/index.htm" target="_blank">Bigas Luna</a> y <a title="La Web de Basilio" href="http://www.basiliomartinpatino.com/" target="_blank">Basilio Martín Patino</a>. Saber que este último era uno de los autores seleccionados me hizo pensar en el momento en el que por primera vez oí de él. Conocí la existencia de Basilio Martín Patino cuando me encontraba estudiando periodismo hace unos 15 años. En unas clases sobre comunicación audiovisual, y tras varias sesiones en las que se habían desgranado los entresijos de los recursos audiovisuales, géneros, etc., se proyectó en la propia clase la película de Basilio “<a title="Sinopsis de la peli" href="http://www.basiliomartinpatino.com/film07.htm" target="_blank">La seducción del caos</a>”.<!--more--></p>
<p>El recuerdo que tengo de aquella película es de fascinación absoluta. La proyección no había sido anunciada en modo alguno y el formato de documental televisual contribuyó a aumentar la confusión. ¿Qué demonios estábamos viendo? El tiempo no me deja recordar con claridad la estructura argumental pero, difusamente recuerdo que la apariencia de documental con narrador, o tal vez de diálogo con el espectador silencioso, disfrazaba una apuesta valiente sobre las fronteras de la ética en el periodismo. Más que una película, se trataba de un puzzle en el que las piezas no encajaban. O quizás encajaban sin dificultad, pero el dibujo que formaban era muy inquietante. Tal vez esté equivocado y el tiempo deforme los detalles de la película en mi mente, pero los recuerdos de las sensaciones son tan claros que desde entonces soy un admirador de la obra de Patino. Un obra a la que, por otro lado, es muy difícil acceder (¿para cuándo una película de Basilio en Versión Española o un ciclo en la Filmoteca?).</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/PLQSTAfemJo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/PLQSTAfemJo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Pocas veces he tenido una sensación similar con un filme. Quizá con la divertida &#8220;<a title="Otra peli fascinante" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_Hour_Party_People" target="_blank">24 Hours Party People</a>&#8221; de <a title="Muy interesante el señor Michael Winterbottom" href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Winterbottom" target="_blank">Winterbottom</a>. Seguro con el mediometraje de <a title="Peter Jackson más allá de Tolkien" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Jackson" target="_blank">Peter Jackson</a> Plata Olvidada (<a title="Absolutamente genial" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forgotten_Silver" target="_blank">Forgotten Silver</a>), por las circunstancias de haberlo visto ya comenzado. O tal vez con <a title="The Kid Stays in the Picture" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kid_Stays_in_the_Picture" target="_blank">El chico que conquistó Hollywood</a>. Sin embargo, Basilio Martín Patino es de Salamanca. Pero el cine que he conocido de él es arriesgado e inquietante. Su mirada es una mirada de fascinación, pero también de desafío.</p>
<p>Cuando supe que Basilio Martín Patino era uno de los directores seleccionados me alegré inmensamente. El resultado seguro que no dejaría indiferente a los visitantes del Pabellón.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Quando ouvi a respeito do filme comecei a vasculhar do que se tratava. Aliens que aparecem na Terra ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;">
<img class="aligncenter" title="District-9" src="http://taai.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/district-9.jpg" alt="District-9" width="330" height="545" /></p>
<p>Quando ouvi a respeito do filme comecei a vasculhar do que se tratava. Aliens que aparecem na Terra sobre Johannesburgo, África do Sul, estão sofrendo algum tipo de doença e querem apenas abrigo em nosso planeta, o que gera uma série de discussões políticas e éticas e enquanto elas não são resolvidas, eles são acomodados no Distrito 9, uma grande favela alienígena.  Com um grande viral, esse ótimo plot e bons efeitos, o monstro chamado Expectativa já estava forte e saudável dentro de mim. Mas infelizmente<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1136608/" target="_blank">Distrito 9</a> decepciona.</p>
<p>O filme tem roteiro assinado por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0088955/" target="_blank">Neil Blomkamp</a> e <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2833612/" target="_blank">Terri Tatchell</a> e direção do próprio Blomkamp neste seu filme de estréia. Distrito 9 contou com 30 milhões de dólares e a pós-produção de <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001392/" target="_blank">Peter Jackson</a>, o padrinho do diretor estreante, para fazer um ótimo serviço, para não falar em milagre. Em efeitos especiais Distrito 9 se torna referência, isso é inegável.</p>
<p>Para contar sua história, Blomkamp inicia como um documentário, acompanhando o dia trabalho de Wikus Van De Merwe, interpretado por<a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1663205/" target="_blank">Sharlto Corpley</a>, que tem de ir até o Distrito 9 para despejar os alienígenas e forçá-los a se instalar em outro lugar preparado para eles. O preconceito se torna tema quando mostra o modo como tratam os aliens os chamando de prawns, ou camarões, devido a sua aparência crustácea. Em uma das buscas pelos barracos dos aliens, Van de Merwe entra em contato com um líquido preto que mudará toda a sua vida. Sim, frase clichê porque tudo o que vem daí pra frente é clichê.</p>
<p>A fórmula é: Herói despresa seus inimigos e seu próprio sogro o trai, fazendo com o que o herói conviva com o inimigo e ele aprende que somos todos iguais, até que aparece o chefão da fase, que claro, é exterminado, mas sem antes deixar um gancho para um segundo filme. Câmeras perdidas fazendo o efeito &#8220;Counter Strike&#8221; para mostrar o nada em cena. Ah! Sem contar os inúmeros diálogos expositivos que são causados pelo tal documentário. Cansa e muito ser tratado como se não tivesse compreendido que uma cena de tiroteio é um tiroteio e uma cena em que Van de Merwe está em fuga ele está em fuga. E não é exagero, infelizmente isso acontece o filme inteiro e acaba estragando a grande idéia que é o filme.</p>
<p>Agora é esperar o Distrito 9 &#8211; 2 e esperar que Peter Jackson ensine Blomkamp a contar a história direito.</p>
<p>P.S.: Como os aliens apenderam inglês? Como os humanos aprenderam aqueles &#8220;cliques&#8221;? Não vi nenhuma menção aos peixes tradutores de <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Adams" target="_blank">Douglas Adams</a>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="color:#808000;">La crisis económica también llega a la industria del cine hollywoodiense y aqueja al famoso león de la Metro </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#000000;">Por <strong>Raquel Cordón<br />
</strong></span>Son casi 4.000 millones de dólares los que adeudan a esta compañía, que engloba a célebres obras como ‘Lo que el viento se llevó’ o ‘James Bond’. Para mantenerse a flote, la <a href="http://www.mgm.com/" target="_blank">Metro Goldwyn Mayer </a>(MGM) ha anunciado que se encuentra en “un proceso de examen de las diferentes estrategias posibles, entre otras, funcionar como una entidad independiente, formar asociaciones estratégicas y evaluar una eventual venta de la empresa”. Asimismo, sus acreedores han aceptado ampliar el plazo de pago de esos 4.000 millones de deuda hasta el próximo 31 de enero.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En cualquier caso, desde septiembre de 2004, MGM forma parte de una corporación liderada por <a href="http://www.sonypictures.com/" target="_blank">Sony</a>, que engloba al operador de cable Comcast y a varios fondos de inversión. MGM también complementa a <a href="http://www.unitedartists.com" target="_blank">United Artists</a>, dirigida por el actor Tom Cruise. No obstante, ahora, entre los principales candidatos a adquirir los famosos estudios de cine destacan Time Warner, empresa dueña de la <a href="http://www.warnerbros.es" target="_blank">Warner Bros</a>, o el conocido magnate de la comunicación <a href="http://http://www.biografiasyvidas.com/biografia/m/murdoch.htm" target="_blank">Rupert Murdoch</a>, quien controla al grupo <a href="http://www.newscorp.com" target="_blank">News Corporation</a>, en el que se enmarca la <a href="http://www.fox.es" target="_blank">20th Century Fox</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Principales afectados por la quiebra</strong><br />
</span>La última secuela de ‘James Bond’, aún por rodar, y ‘El Hobbit’ son los principales títulos que van a sufrir de primera mano las consecuencias derivadas de la difícil situación económica que está afectando a MGM.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">El rodaje de ‘James Bond’, cuyo título provisional es ‘Bond 23’, estaba previsto que comenzase a principios del 2010, pero parece ser que no será así por encontrarse congelados los 300 millones de euros previstos de presupuesto para poder comenzar a dar forma a la película.<br />
‘El Hobbit’ es otro de los principales afectados por la falta de liquidez de la compañía. Producida por Peter Jackson y Guillermo del Toro este film, que tiene previsto su estreno en el verano de 2011, corre una mejor suerte que el título anterior, ya que su rodaje está en marcha. Ello se debe a que sus acreedores consideran que existen muchas posibilidades de que la película pueda ser comprada, aunque bien es cierto que aún no se conoce ningún candidato.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>The end of the year draws ever so near and with the turn of the calender comes a brand new slate of movies.</p>
<p>2009 hasn&#8217;t quite lived up to past year&#8217;s expectations, but there have been some really, really good movies. Some surprises, some stinkers, as usual. But with oh, 47 days left in the year, here at the 5 films, in order, I&#8217;m most looking forward to:</p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikUWKi0W5_g" target="_blank"><strong>The Lovely Bones</strong></a> &#8211; why? Peter Jackson. Simply incredible book. Amazing young actress. Great cast. Riveting story.</p>
<p><strong>2. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLlpabVRnyc" target="_blank">Brothers</a></strong> &#8211; why? Two fantastic lead actors. Heart-wrenching storyline. Incredible trailer. Great director.</p>
<p><strong>3. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xIUtRrTlgo" target="_blank">Up In the Air</a> &#8211; </strong>why? Clooney in a perfect role. Director who hasn&#8217;t let down yet. Massive positive hype. Trailer.</p>
<p><strong>4.</strong> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1_JBMrrYw8" target="_blank"><strong>Avatar</strong></a> &#8211; why? Decade in the making. Special effects like nothing before. Have to trust Cameron.</p>
<p><strong>5. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1v6-T52zLO0" target="_blank">The Fantastic Mr. Fox</a></strong> &#8211; Amazing early reviews. Creative director with a creative cast. Looks inventive and hilarious.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>I can honestly say I&#8217;m more excited for these 5 films than any other 5 films this entire year. Bring it on!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://www.lovelybones.com"><img src="http://eplteen.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/the-lovely-bones-poster.png?w=206" alt="the-lovely-bones-poster" title="the-lovely-bones-poster" width="206" height="300" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4489" /></a>When <em><a href="http://www.epl.org/babelcat.php/0316666343"><strong>The Lovely Bones </strong></a></em> was published in 2002 it took off like a shot, catapulting its author, Alice Sebold, high into literary stardom.  This dark, wrenching novel of disquietude and loss is the story of Susie Salmon, a 12 year old girl who is raped and murdered in an underground den by a neighbor one afternoon when she takes a shortcut home from school.  Susie narrates the story from a place of solitude &#8211; her own personal heaven &#8211; where she observes her grief-stricken, traumatized family as they come to terms with her death while searching for answers about the crime.  She also watches as her killer evades justice.  Written in spare, at times lyrical, at times graphic, prose, Sebold&#8217;s novel is unsettling in its evocation of a conflicted afterlife, as well as its depiction of a terrifying, brutal crime that tears a family apart.</p>
<p>Now, seven years after it appeared as a book, <em>The Lovely Bones </em> <a href="http://www.lovelybones.com/">will be a film.</a>  The bestselling novel has been brought to filmic life by Peter Jackson, the visionary director behind the <em><a href="http://www.epl.org/babelcat.php/0316666343">Lord of the Rings</a> </em>trilogy, with an impressive cast that includes Mark Wahlberg, Susan Sarandon, and the amazing young actress, Saoirse Ronan.  It&#8217;s even scored by Brian Eno.  Watch the trailer below.  To me, it&#8217;s one of the most compelling, artful trailers I&#8217;ve seen in a long time, and promises a deeply emotional experience with a searching tone and eerie, almost painted, beauty to it.  </p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/ikUWKi0W5_g&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/ikUWKi0W5_g&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>Are you a fan of Laurie Halse Anderson&#8217;s <em><strong><a>Speak</strong></em></a>?  Then don&#8217;t miss Alice Sebold&#8217;s first book, <strong><em><a href="http://www.epl.org/babelcat.php/9780316096195">Lucky</a></em></strong>, a memoir about the rape she experienced her freshman year at Syracuse and the unlikely justice she eventually saw served, also available in the Loft.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;"><strong><a href="http://videodromo.wordpress.com/2009/11/06/diez-finales-antologicos/" target="_blank">No hay finales</a></strong> sin principios, y a petición de diversos lectores (Gonzalo, <a href="http://radagast-elpardo.blogspot.com/2009/11/memeces-videodromicas_06.html" target="_blank">Radagast</a>, etc) aquí da comienzo este espero que curioso TOP TEN rebosante de nostalgia por un tipo de cine que no volveremos a ver. Quiero dejar claro que a veces los realizadores optan por poner los rótulos de crédito en la secuencia inicial, otras no. En algunos casos están realizados y concebidos por los propios directores, y en otras no. Por eso, indicaré quién elabora los títulos cuando sea preciso. Para comenzar esta selección quiero hacerlo de una forma un tanto retórica. Si comenzamos elegiendo diez finales y ahora vamos a hablar de inicios, pues quien mejor que Chistopher Nolan para abrir fuego. Fue este arriesgado director que se atrevió a poner el final de la historia al principio del largometraje. Así pues, vayamos pues hasta el año 2000 cuando se estrenó <strong>&#8220;MEMENTO&#8221;</strong>.  Estamos ante un final y un principio, todo en uno. Mejor forma de empezar esta selección de comienzos de película no he podido encontrar. Ojo, a pasar de que me gusta mucho, este no cuenta. Se trata sólo de una forma de comenzar, allá vamos&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE MEMENTO </strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/mQfY-Oz0604&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/mQfY-Oz0604&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En <strong>el puesto número diez</strong> tenemos&#8230; el inicio de <strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076759/" target="_blank">LA GUERRA DE LAS GALAXIAS</a>&#8220;</strong>  dirigida en 1977  por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000184/" target="_blank"><strong>George Lucas</strong></a>. Los títulos de crédito fueron obra de<strong> </strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0674635/" target="_blank"><strong>Dan Perri</strong></a>, creador también de los de &#8220;El exorcista&#8221; o &#8220;Taxi driver&#8221;. Este es uno de esos comienzos que uno tiene grabado a fuego en la memoria. Era un niño que deseaba verla. Había visto por la tele que habían estado en el festival de San Sebastián C3PO, R2D2, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, La princesa Leia. Tengo el recuerdo vago de verlos posando ante las cámaras en la playa de Donosti. Desde ese mismo instante quise verla. Tras mucha turra en casa y diversos intentos, conseguí que me llevaran a verla. Lo recuerdo perfectamente aún, fue en los cines Roxy de la calle fuencarral de Madrid, en sesión de noche, estaba abarrotada la sala y nos tocaron de las últimas filas A pesar de que era canijo y alguna cabeza me tapaba parte de la pantalla me fue absolutamente indiferente. Al oir los maravillosos acordes de Williams, entré en un fascinante mundo del que todavía creo que no he salido.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE STAR WARS: UNA NUEVA ESPERANZA</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/Oma9uPz9YYk&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/Oma9uPz9YYk&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En <strong>el puesto número nueve</strong> tenemos&#8230; el comienzo de <strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114369/" target="_blank">SEVEN</a>&#8220;,</strong> dirigida por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000399/" target="_blank"><strong>David Fincher</strong></a> en 1995, en este caso fue el siempre genial <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0178204/" target="_blank"><strong>Kyle Cooper</strong></a> quien se encargó de los títulos de crédito. En su currículum hasta ese momento tenía &#8220;Breaveheart&#8221; de Gibson y &#8220;Quiz Show: El Dilema<em>&#8220;</em> de Redford. Me parece fascinante la maestría con la que resuelve este inicio, y por eso lo he elegido. La secuencia inicial incluye los títulos de crédito y nos describe perfectamente la mente y el <em>modus operandi</em> de este asesino en serie. Destacar tanto la fotografía de Darius Khondi y la música de Nine Inchs Nails, y la barroca voz de Trevor Horn.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE SE7EN</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/SEZK7mJoPLY&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/SEZK7mJoPLY&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En <strong>el puesto número ocho</strong> tenemos el inicio de una gran adaptación literaria&#8230; <strong>&#8220;</strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094947/" target="_blank"><strong>LAS AMISTADES PELIGROSAS</strong></a><strong>&#8220;</strong> realizada por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001241/" target="_blank"><strong>Stephen Frears</strong></a> en 1988. Impresionante me parece la labor de Stephen Frears en cómo plantea esta secuencia que engloba los rótulos de crédito. Hace una descripción física y psicológica de los personajes inmejorable. Todo acentuado por la increible suite de George Fenton, que recalca el momento histórico. Maravillosa la actuación de Glenn Close y John Malcovick.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE &#8220;LAS AMISTADES PELIGROSAS&#8221;</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/4GBhKrwdqjo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/4GBhKrwdqjo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong> </strong>En <strong>el puesto número siete</strong> venido de la Tierra Media tenemos&#8230;<strong> &#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120737/" target="_blank">EL SEÑOR DE LOS ANILLOS</a>&#8220;</strong> dirigida por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001392/" target="_blank"><strong>Peter Jackson</strong></a> en el años 2001. Todo un gran comienzo para una obra épica que consta de tres partes. Estamos una vez más ante una magnífica adpatación, y se me ponen aún los pelos de punta con la música de <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006290/" target="_blank"><strong>Howard Shore</strong></a> y la narración en off, es brutal.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE &#8220;EL SEÑOR DE LOS ANILLOS&#8221;</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/Dr_i2w0W-ZM&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/Dr_i2w0W-ZM&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En <strong>el puesto número seis</strong> tenemos&#8230; el comienzo de <strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083658/fullcredits#cast" target="_blank">BLADE RUNNER</a>&#8220;,</strong> concretamente el de la versión de 1982. Film dirigido por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000631/" target="_blank"><strong>Ridley Scott</strong></a>, contaba para sus rótulos de crédito con la colaboración de<strong> </strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006331/" target="_blank"><strong>Vangelis</strong></a>, que le componía un score de lujo que te dejaba noqueado en la butaca. Esta es una de esas secuencias que ningún amante del séptimo arte olvida. Esa belleza postindustrial, llena de coloridos neones y llamaradas. Esos encuadres que parecen sacados de una viñeta de cualquier historia del &#8220;Metal Hurlant&#8221; merecen todo un respeto. Eso por no hablar de los increíbles efectos y fotografía obra de los desaparecidos <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0874320/" target="_blank"><strong>Douglas Trumball</strong></a> y<strong> </strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005675/" target="_blank"><strong>Jordan Cronenweth</strong></a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO BLADE RUNNER VERSION 1982</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/AbWNZkoQHuE&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/AbWNZkoQHuE&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En <strong>el puesto número cinco</strong> tenemos nada más y nada menos que los&#8230;<strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105236/" target="_blank">RESERVOIR DOGS</a>&#8220; </strong>dirigidos en 1992 por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000233/" target="_blank"><strong>Quentin Tarantino</strong></a>,<em> le</em> <em>enfant terrible</em> de la industria de Hollywood. Cinéfago, cinéfilo, inclasificable, esos pueden ser algunos de los adjetivos con los que podemos calificar a este director norteamericano. De dialogos contundentes y salvajes tanto por duración como por temática. En el inicio de su ópera prima tenemos todas las claves de lo que veríamos con el paso del tiempo a lo largo de sus ocho películas como director. Brillante y delirante comienzo donde los haya.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE RESERVOIR DOGS</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/GyR4RK0LA_E&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/GyR4RK0LA_E&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>En <strong>el puesto número cuatro</strong>&#8230; <strong>&#8220;</strong><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0125659/" target="_blank"><strong>ABRE LOS OJOS</strong></a><strong>&#8221; </strong>dirigida por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0024622/" target="_blank">Alejandro Amenabar</a> en 1997. El creador de los rótulos de crédito del film fue <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0764007/" target="_blank"><strong>Carlos J. Santos</strong></a>, pero estos no llegan a estar incluidos en la secuencia inicial van tras la segunda secuencia. Su trabajo es de sobra conocido, ha hecho también los de &#8220;Acción mutante&#8221; de Alex de la Iglesia, &#8220;Familia&#8221; o &#8220;Torrente, el brazo tonto de la ley&#8221;. Creo que este es uno de los inicios más inquietantes del cine español. Considero que esta es su mejor película, y que no creo que vuelva  a realizar nada Amenabar a la altura de esta. Maravilloso el plano con la Gran Vía vacía.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO ABRE LOS OJOS</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/VJsVbQtimAc&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/VJsVbQtimAc&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">En <strong>el puesto número tres</strong> tenemos<strong>&#8230; &#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067023/" target="_blank">EL DIABLO SOBRE RUEDAS</a></strong>&#8221; realizada en 1971 por <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000229/" target="_blank">Steven Spielberg</a>. A pesar de ser un telefilm consiguió traspasar las fronteras de lo catódico y lo cinematográfico y consigió venderse si mal no creo en el festival de Cannes, y en Europa se distribuyó en cines con este título. Os recuerdo que el original es &#8220;DUEL&#8221;, que podríamos traducir como &#8220;Duelo&#8221; y está basado en un relato corto de <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0558577/" target="_blank">Richard Matheson</a>, otro viejo conocido de la videoarena.<strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE &#8220;EL DIABLO SOBRE RUEDAS&#8221;</strong><br />
<span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/o3e7U48ZCkU&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/o3e7U48ZCkU&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Y esta lista no puede acabar sin la gran labor de dos grandes genios. En primer lugar, aquí tenéis a un viejo amigo del blog, hablo de mi tocayo <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000033/" target="_blank"><strong>Alfred Hitchcock</strong></a>, así que <strong>en el puesto número dos</strong> tenemos&#8230;<strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0040746/" target="_blank">LA SOGA</a>&#8220;</strong> realizada en 1948. En esta secuencia inicial plantea las múltiples lecturas que posee este largometraje. Por la forma en que está rodada, por la actitud de los personajes, por miles de cosas, pero es algo más que un asesinato, es el final de un trio sexual. Soberbio. Cómo se enciende el cigarro, aprece que acaba de echar el polvo de su vida como dice el detective Nick Curran en &#8220;Instinto básico&#8221;. Atentos y no dejar que se os escape ningún detalle. Y sobre todo los remordimientos que quedan después. Soberbio el maestro una vez más.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO DE &#8220;LA SOGA&#8221;</strong><br />

<p style="text-align:justify;">Y para finalizar en <strong>el puesto número uno</strong> tenemos al otro gran maestro, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000040/" target="_blank"><strong>Stanley Kubrick</strong></a> y su&#8230; <strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066921/" target="_blank">LA NARANJA MECÁNICA</a>&#8220;</strong> realizada en 1971. Se dice, se comenta, que los rótulos de crédito iniciales fueron elaborados por otro de los grandes, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0274998/" target="_blank"><strong>Pablo Ferro</strong></a>, pero no encontréis acreditado este trabajo por ningún lado, y eso es raro en Kubrick, así que le pasaría como a Alex North en &#8220;2001&#8243;.  En esta secuencia inicial comprenderéis la función y el sentido de un travelling. Es maravillosa la forma en la que describe el entorno y a los personajes. Su simplicidad es sólo igualable a su efectividad. Arropándolo con todo el mimo del mundo estan los estupendos acordes de <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0137793/" target="_blank"><strong>Wendy Carlos</strong></a>. Además, en la pasada edición de Sitges Malcom McDowell recogió el premio por su labor en este film. Os puedo decir hasta cuando la vi por primera vez, porque luego le siguieron unas cuantas. Fue con dieciseís años en el extinto cine Torre de Madrid en la sala dos en la sesión de siete de la tarde. Desde entonces la tengo taladrada esta escena en mi cabeza. Mi madre no quería que la viera, ella consideraba que era ultraviolenta. Lo curioso es que con el paso del tiempo ya no lo parece tanto. Pero a pesar de todo, es impresionante.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>INICIO &#8220;LA NARANJA MECÁNICA&#8221;</strong><br />

<p>Here&#8217;s the French Trailer for Peter Jackson&#8217;s <em>&#8220;The Lovely Bones&#8221;</em>, book by Alice Sebold.  The French trailer has a few more scenes than the domestic trailer.  Click <a href="http://wp.me/ptXZl-je">here</a> to watch the domestic trailer as well as read my mini book review.  Also check out the movie&#8217;s <a href="http://wp.me/ptXZl-kc">behind the scenes featurette</a>.  </p>
<p>This movie looks amazing and if the film adaptation is as good as the book; I really think <em>&#8220;The Lovely Bones&#8221;</em> can be a real Oscar contender!</p>

<p>La verdad cuando leí y vi el trailer de esta pelicula me quede interesado en verla. <strong>Lovely Bones</strong> es una adaptación de un libro escrito por Alice Sebold, esta pelicula cuenta la historia de una adolescente de solo 14 años la cual es violada y asesinada por su vecino, luego ella desde el cielo bserva a su familia y amigos intentando sobrellevar la pérdida y descubrir al asesino.</p>
<p>Esta interesante historia es llevada a la pantalla grande por <strong>Peter Jackson</strong> y desde ahora me apunto para verla en el cine.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><h3>Gandalf itching to return to Middle Earth</h3>
<p>11 Nov 2009 ( this from a press release &#8211; not written by the kiwitravelwriter .. however, read here what she says about a <strong><a href="http://wp.me/pc3Zw-sm">Lord of the Rings Tour</a>)</strong></p>
<p><!--Shado Debug: Getting From RenderCache qPageContainerItem-->Sir Ian McKellen, who played Gandalf in the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy, is  itching to revisit Middle Earth after reading the script for the first of ‘The  Hobbit’ films.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s been over a decade since McKellen donned Gandalf&#8217;s robes on the ‘Lord of  the Rings’ set in New Zealand.</p>
<p>And, while he&#8217;s sworn to secrecy over  ‘The Hobbit’ script, the veteran British actor says the part has his name on it  and he’s longing for production to get underway.</p>
<p><strong>Gandalf</strong><br />
To be directed by Guillermo del Toro, the  script for ‘The Hobbit’ movies has been co-written by New Zealand producer Peter  Jackson with long-time ‘Lord of the Rings’ collaborators Fran Walsh and  Phillippa Boyens &#8211; and McKellen says it’s very attractive that the Gandalf part  has been written specifically for him.</p>
<p>&#8220;As Peter has said, they loved  writing Gandalf for ‘The Hobbit’ because they knew who they were writing him  for. The other Gandalf was written for, well, just as Gandalf. There&#8217;s lots for  me to enjoy, in all sorts of ways. And I couldn&#8217;t be happier. But I&#8217;m sworn to  secrecy. I&#8217;m not to say anything at all about the script,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p><strong>Unexpected Hobbit script</strong><br />
McKellen said he hadn’t  been expecting to receive any pages of ‘The Hobbit’ but the script arrived out  of the blue.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was sitting in London and a courier arrived from New  Zealand, which is the other side of the world, bearing the script of &#8216;The  Hobbit,&#8217;&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was tied around with so much Scotch tape that  even with two pairs of scissors, I only got into it half an hour later.&#8221;</p>
<p>He said the script had his name on every page with a warning that each  page was encrypted, so if it appeared on the internet, it could be traced back  to him.</p>
<p>&#8220;And I&#8217;m not to discuss it with anyone, any colleague, or  friend, or family member or pet. I may not write in the script, I may not remove  it from its plastic folder, and when it is taken from me by the courier, it will  be shredded under supervision,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p><strong>Production  details</strong><br />
Although he has read the script, McKellen hasn’t yet been  signed and details of ‘The Hobbit’ production are still sketchy.</p>
<p>‘The  Hobbit’ story will be told in two films to be shot back-to-back with a predicted  budget of NZ$474 million. New Zealand-based fan website theonering.net reports  that the first six months of filming in 2010 will take place in the studio.</p>
<p>Work has begun at Hobbiton near the North Island town of Matamata with  hobbit holes and hedgerows appearing on the farm site.</p>
<p>Scouts looking  for filming locations have also been reported in New Zealand’s South Island, and  it is rumoured that a creative team is already hard at work on visuals for the  two movies.</p>
<p>Although it is thought that other actors have seen the  scripts, McKellen is the only one to have spoken publicly.</p>
<p>&#8220;Gandalf is a  fantastic part and I long to do it,&#8221; McKellen said. Both he and Peter Jackson  preferred the earlier Gandalf the Grey version to his later, post-resurrection  incarnation, he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;He was more humane somehow. He was the guy who  liked to hang out with the hobbits and drink too much and smoke too much.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>20-plus takes</strong><br />
McKellen said he didn’t, however,  always prefer the 20-plus takes Jackson often required on set to get a scene  exactly as he wanted, and he wondered if Guillermo del Toro might spare his  actors such lengthy repetition.</p>
<p>&#8220;A slight shiver went through me just  then,&#8221; he said (smiling), &#8220;because I thought perhaps Guillermo might be a little  quicker than Peter, but maybe he won&#8217;t be. He&#8217;s a bit of a perfectionist. But  this script plays very much to his strengths and I can see where he&#8217;s put his  mark already on the script.&#8221;</p>
<p>Although sworn to secrecy, McKellen  promised a resemblance between ‘LOTR’ and ‘The Hobbit’ in both look and feel.</p>
<p>&#8220;Peter Jackson is still a hands-on producer,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Guillermo del  Toro comes in not as a wild card but very much respecting it all.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Jackson and del Toro </strong><br />
Jackson and del Toro speak the  same language, McKellen said.</p>
<p>&#8220;They are the same person. They were  separated at birth. They’re twins. They have the same attitude. Neither likes  working in Hollywood. They&#8217;re both brilliant storytellers in very much the same  way,&#8221; said McKellen.</p>
<p>&#8220;And I think the script, because I have read it,  plays very much to Guillermo&#8217;s strengths, as I&#8217;ve seen them. I have seen his  other movies, and people act very well in them. So I think it&#8217;s all fine. And  Peter will always be there,&#8221; McKellen said.</p>
<p>McKellen said that the role  of Gandalf changed his life forever. &#8220;I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s 10 years for me,&#8221;  said the actor, who first played the wizard in <em>The Lord of the Rings: The  Fellowship of the Ring</em> &#8211; film one in the trilogy that began principal  photography in New Zealand in 1999.</p>
<p>&#8220;I remember being told by a friend  in Hollywood that &#8216;your life is going to change,&#8217; and it has. Gandalf is an  extremely famous character, and I quite like having him around the corner. He&#8217;s  very popular.&#8221;</p>

<p><span style="color:#003366;">Il nuovo film diretto da Steven Spielberg, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn dopo aver completato la fotografia principale in soli 32 giorni, in cui è stata realizzata la performance-capture lensing del film dalla Weta, è entrato nella fase intensiva della post produzione, a cui subentrerà il produttore Peter Jackson che si occuperà per i prossimi 18 mesi degli effetti speciali della pellicola.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#003366;">The Secret of the Unicorn sarà il primo film di una trilogia a cui stanno collaborando Spielberg che dirigerà la prima pellicola e Jackson che sarà il regista della seconda e il responsabile degli effetti speciali dell&#8217;intera franchise. La seconda pellicola verrà girata probabilmente subito dopo la prima ma lo studios non ha ancora dato il via libera, perché si sta aspettando ancora la sceneggiatura.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#003366;">È stato invece scelto come responsabile della colonna sonora per il primo film il compositore John Williams (Le due trilogie di Star wars, Lo squalo, Indiana Jones).</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#003366;">Il film racconta le avventure di TinTin (Jamie Bell), un giovane ed intrepido reporter alla ricerca di buone storie da seguire, che lo catapultano in un mondo di avventure. Nel cast Daniel Craig nei panni del nefasto Red Rackham, Andy Serkis interprete del capitano Haddock, Simon Pegg di Thompson e Nick Frost di Thomson.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#003366;">Il film uscirà nei cinema nel 2011.<span id="_marker"> </span></span></p>

<p>Estou tão emocionado, com tanta adrenalina no corpo que não consigo nem escrever direito.<br />
Esse ano, dos vários filmes que eu assisti, três podem ser considerados maravilhosos. <a href="http://jacidionocinema.wordpress.com/2009/06/05/star-trek-simplesmente-foda/">Star Trek</a>, Bastardos Inglórios – sobre o qual não tive vontade de escrever – e agora Distrito 9.</p>
<p>Meu Deus! Simplesmente em certa parte da película comecei a pensar em como um tema tão original quanto o do filme pode ser abordado de uma maneira tão sensacional. Simplesmente, não havia lido nada a respeito dessa produção. Sabia só que foi muito bem recebida pela crítica internacional e pelos festivais mundo afora. Detalhe que foi produzido pelo diretor de Senhor dos Anéis, Peter Jackson. E isso eu também não sabia.</p>
<p>Logo no início da história você se pergunta a respeito da estética do filme, cores marrons, um pouco escuras, desenrolar um pouco lento, mas não ruim. Parece que irá haver algum tipo de crítica social ou algo parecido, no entanto, isso se torna sua segunda opção. Mas pra ficar mais fácil vou explicar um pouquinho do contexto.<br />
A história se passa em Johanesburgo, capital da África do Sul, lá uma nave alienígena estacionou e nada mais aconteceu. Para descobrir do que se tratava essa parada, os humanos resolvem invadi-la e encontram milhares de aliens subnutridos, precisando de ajuda. Depois do resgate os Et´s passam a receber atenção e são colocados em um lugar para morar, chamado Distrito 9, até que decidam o que fazer com eles. Posteriormente esse espaço se torna uma favela, cercada de muros e vigiadas 24 horas por dia. Do momento em que a nave chega à capital sul-africana até o desenrolar da trama se passam 20 anos.</p>
<p>Vários personagens aparecem, como se estivessem em uma espécie de documentário e eu comecei a ficar meio perdido, sem entender qual era o real objetivo daquilo tudo. Até que um personagem central na história aparece. Parece um imbecil, e o ator que interpreta esse papel – Sharlto Copley – simplesmente consegue deixar isso bem claro.</p>
<p>A partir daí você precisa ir ao cinema pra ver. A história traz momentos de drama e ação, te deixa alterado, choroso, com raiva&#8230; Em certa parte do filme a adrenalina era tanta que minhas pernas tremiam, meus dentes rangiam e eu não tinha mais o controle do meu corpo.</p>
<p>É importante destacar a ideia genial do roteiro escrito por Terri Tatchell e Neill Blomkamp – esse também diretor -, pois quando, depois de E.T, poderíamos imaginar que um filme que trata sobre extraterrestres poderia ser dramático, cheio de ação e ainda questionar nossos conceitos morais a respeito de como tratamos os outros.<br />
Um detalhe interessante é que da mesma forma que vemos o tratamento dos alienígenas na “favela” distrito 9, poderíamos encaixar qualquer outro ser humano que vive fora do seu país e é colocado em locais pretensiosamente para que tenham mais segurança. Simplesmente a originalidade do tema, que não traz um ataque alienígena contra a Terra, mas sim seres indefesos, ou que optam pela não aniquilação dos nativos, que perderam seus líderes não se sabe por que e passaram a ser tratados como algo à parte da sociedade na qual se tentou-se abrigá-los.</p>
<p>Algo que colabora muito para o desenrolar da história é a empatia que toma conta do público em relação a esses aliens, mesmo com sua aparência nada facilitadora. Porém quando existe a interação do personagem principal com um desses seres tudo se torna muito mais emotivo. Filme simplesmente maravilhoso, que começa embasando todas as ações de forma a imergir o espectador no tema. Se você ainda não viu veja. Se já viu, acho que vale a pena ver de novo. Com certeza uma continuação será bem vinda.</p>
<p>Vejo vocês em três anos.</p>
<p>P.S. Acho que muita gente já deve ter percebido isso, mas o cinema e suas temáticas têm se reinventado por meio das produções de baixo orçamento. O mais louco é pensar que esse filme, Distrito 9, não conta com nenhum nome conhecido a não ser o do produtor e é simplesmente algo magnífico. Fiquei me questionando quando o filme terminou o porquê de atores famosos não participarem de obras tão boas como essas. Primeiro são os agentes mal preparados e segundo os super cachês que acabam podando as possibilidades de participar de projetos inovadores, mas que não podem pagar muito. Finalizando, isso significa que um ator que ganha muito dificilmente irá colaborar com a arte e seu desenvolvimento. Simplesmente irá manter o Status Quo do que temos hoje para que possa continuar ganhando seus rios de dinheiro.</p>
