IT (1990) When ABC and Lorimar first announced this mini-series, it was to be a ten-hour mini-series directed by George A. Romero. Romero did extensive pre-production work and closely collaborated with Lawrence D. Cohen to develop the script. However, several factors led to his departure: 1. Scheduling Conflict: Romero... had to bow out to focus on the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead. 2. Reduced Scope: ABC "lost their nerve" regarding the ten-hour runtime and progressively cut the length down to four hours. Romero later stated that these cuts "took the magic out of the project" for him. 3. Network Concerns: Producers were also reportedly worried that Romero’s vision would be too graphic for network television standards.show more

Given that Trump is suing the BBC for $1.5 billion - What financial risk has the ABC exposed Australian taxpayers to by putting to air completely fake news and intentionally defamatory stories about President Trump ? Especially when the lies and disinformation peddled by the ABC were far more egregious than those of the BBC. The ABC is not a news network- they are a leftist propaganda machine that is prepared to stoop to doctoring videos and photo to advance their leftists agendas. The ABC needs to be defunded immediately, taxpayers shouldn’t be paying for propaganda. Let those shrinking number of people that the watch the ABC pay for it.

Megyn Kelly exclusive where she reveals comments from Trump's lawyers as to why they think ABC and George Stephanopoulos settled for 15 million: Megyn Kelly: "Our Producer spoke with Trump's attorney, Alejandro Brito. And here is what he said. Our question was why did ABC decide to settle? The long and short of it? Is the nature of the claims that were brought and the fact that they were verifiable from a standpoint as factually untrue from George Stephanopoulos. Trump's legal team had separate video clips of George Stephanopoulos on ABC that showed Stephanopoulos knew that Trump had not been found liable for rape." "Was there something this is us in discovery that scared ABC into settling." "Answer the possibility of something coming out in discovery may have had led to the settlement. Trump legal team had scheduled to take the deposition of ABC and ABC Rep and George Stephanopoulos. The lawyer, suspects ABC did not want it to happen. Quote, It wasn't something ABC learned that caused them to settle, but rather something Trump's team may learn. Trump team was waiting on ABC and Stephanopoulos to respond to discovery demands. He said At the time of the settlement, ABC had only produced one piece of paper and, quote, very interesting and not provided any other documentation. And he believes fear of what Trump could learn about ABC and Stephanopoulos and document exchange may have played a role in the settlement." ABC would rather pay 15 million dollars than allow Trump and the public to discover how corrupt they are.

The RCMP suffered a major blow after 6 of their vehicles were damaged during a raid on a First Nations pot store in Nova Scotia. The police arrested 2 individuals but were swarmed by the community and had to temporarily abandon their vehicles. The cop cars had their tires slashed or stolen, windows smashed out, and were even urinated in. The Potlotek First Nation later said they were willing to work with the province to develop "community crafted" bylaws for the sale of cannabis. However, clear rules for weed sales already exists. Some want to have their cake and eat it too.

However, when that fire broke out I got – myself and my deputy chief were up on the phone talking to each other and talking to the Incident Commander. "I can tell you those people on that fire ground were highly qualified and well-trusted. They also did what they called a cold trailing operation well into the next day. We kept a patrol well over 36 hours. We kept the hose line on the hill, we call it we kept it plumbed just to go back and continue to patrol. That fire was dead out. "If it is determined that was the cause, it would be a phenomenon."

Bully officer that does not know the law costs his department 41,000 dollars. The incident took place outside the Pueblo Police Department in Colorado, where an independent journalist known as O'Connel was filming and taking photos from a public sidewalk. As we all know this a protected right that we all have. This journalist is exercising those very rights. Officer Romero notices O'Connel recording police vehicles and the building. He approaches and demands to know who O'Connel is and what he's doing. O'Connel exercises his right to remain silent and attempts to walk away. Instead of letting him go, Officer Romero immediately grabs him and places him in handcuffs. When pressed on why he is detaining the citizen, Officer Romero claims he has "reasonable suspicion." However, as O'Connel rightly points out on the scene, recording from a public sidewalk and refusing to answer a police officer's questions is not a crime, nor does it establish reasonable suspicion of a crime. The moment Captain Martin (the supervisor) arrives on the scene, the entire dynamic shifts. Captain Martin instantly recognizes the situation, identifies O'Connell as he has seen his work, and tells Officer Romero point-blank: "He has every right to do that." The supervisor orders the immediate release of the journalist, leaving the arresting officer to face a swift internal affairs complaint for deprivation of rights and illegal detainment. In the end in order to avoid litigation caused by the incompetence of officer Romero, their department settled for 41,000 dollars.

December 16, 2016. Obama does an hour long interview with NPR. The entire interview is stunning for a few reasons. 1. Almost everything Obama says is in direct contradiction to the intelligence report on the election that he had just recently received. The majority of this interview was spent discussing Russia's election interference to help Trump. We now know that Obama had just received a report informing him that did not happen. 2. It was extremely obvious throughout the entire interview that Obama was lying and that he knew the significance of what he was doing. 3. Obama finished the interview, left and returned to talk about a new "Intelligence Assessment" that would be dropping before Trump's inauguration. He was priming the media to be on the look out for the bogus report he had just asked for. It's impossible to overstate the magnitude of what Obama was doing during this interview. And of course he turned to NPR to help him do his dirty work.

"Mike - OMG, I just saw a promo for the new season of Deadliest Catch and you are SO YOUNG! I never knew you were actually in the show. Why aren’t you still? Congratulations on 20 years!" Denise Rigel Hi Denise Yeah, I saw that too. 20 years. Don’t they go by in a blink? The story of why I’m not the host of Deadliest Catch begins with the fact that 20 years ago, Dirty Jobs was not yet a hit on Discovery, and the network didn’t really know what to do with me. Back in 2004, the pilot episodes for DJ were considered to be “off-brand,” and Discovery had no plans to take the show to series. They liked me, though, and started sending me around the world on a series of expeditions. One of those trips was to a place called Dutch Harbor, Alaska, to bear witness to life on a crab boat. Well, bear witness I did. I was up there in October of 2004, hosting a show that was not yet a show, trying with the producers to figure out if we were filming a documentary, a reality show, a competition show, or a mini-series. It still wasn’t clear three months later, in January of 2005, when I returned to host the snow crab season. That was the year that Deadliest Catch, tragically, lived up to its name, when six men died in the course of filming the show. And that’s when everyone stepped back and said, “Wait…what is this thing, exactly? How can so much danger be an everyday part of getting a job done?” Later that year, Deadliest Catch and Dirty Jobs both went into full scale production, and cable television was forever changed. That's not hyperbole. The number of work-themed shows that evolved directly from the success of those two shows is stunning. Discovery, quite wisely, determined that Catch needed a narrator, not a host. Thus, all of my on-camera stuff was cut from Season 1. I was, however, invited to narrate the show, which I was honored to do. In fact, I’m headed to the studio right now to do a few more episodes for Season 20, which premieres tonight at 8pm, on Discovery. Check it out, and be reminded once again of a great and abiding truth, proven every year now for the last two decades – you can’t script The Bering Sea. A big thanks to the captains and their crews, for sharing their world with the rest of us. And to all of the producers and cameramen who made it happen. And to Discovery, for giving us a home. It’s a hell of an accomplishment.

There is a case study to be done on OKKO. It’s a series with a creator (ianjq ) that did everything he could to try and make a show that would work for the network, and a network that started out strong and then struggled with how to properly support it. Nonetheless we had three seasons and 112 episodes. That’s a luxury these days! Here’s a clip from SUPER BLACK FRIDAY (2018).

In the prologue of The Fellowship of the Ring, the original plan was to show a longer battle between Sauron and High King Elendil and Gil-galad, culminating in Gil-galad’s death by disintegration when Sauron grabs him (they even shot this!). It was eventually cut to keep the prologue more concise and because there were concerns it was too graphic. This would explain why Sauron reaches out for Isildur, a point that puzzles many people.

What have the Hindus done to themselves!! 🔥🪹🔥🪹🔥🪹🔥🪹🔥🪹🔥🪹 MLA Mustafa, who was elected from Madurai — the abode of Devi Meenakshi — reportedly entered the temple around 1:30PM, when the temple was closing. The guards and temple staff informed him that it was closing time and requested him to return at 4 PM, when the temple would reopen for darshan. However, he allegedly refused to listen and wanted to enter through the Rajagopuram gate, which has been closed due to renovation work. It is said that after the fire accident six years ago, the entrance was shut for the public, and the authorities had announced that it would be reopened only after the Kumbabhishekam. But Mustafa reportedly stated that he had come only to supervise the temple work. This eventually led to arguments, following which he left the premises, it seems!! 🙄 Moreover, though all are disappointed by this act -no one wants to go against the new government - so the full story is not coming out !!

George A. Romero explains why he didn't like "World War Z" (2013): "Interviewer: Zombies have surged in popularity again: the 'Dawn of the De@d' remake and 'The Walking De@d'. How do you feel about where it is now? Romero: Well, it’s just got terribly crowded, hasn’t it? Now you can’t sell a zombie film unless you promise to spend a lot of money. I think it belongs on a smaller, more intimate scale. I certainly don’t think you need 'World War Z' (2013) at all. I know Max Brooks, who wrote the book, didn’t like it at all. I didn’t like it when I first saw it. Interviewer: Do you feel a degree of ownership? Do you care about how zombies are used in popular culture? Romero: I don’t think so. I just used to be the only guy and it was my little private cache. I could bring the zombies out whenever I wanted to and do something with them that maybe had something to say. And then all of a sudden it just became another creature. And basically it’s a first-person shooter now… I think the popularity came from video games, not from films because up until 'Zombieland' (2009) there was no film that grossed more than 100 million bucks. The remake of Dawn did $75 million. Hollywood isn’t going to be particularly interested at that level. And then all of a sudden, I think it was Brad Pitt who went after Z, and he somehow convinced the studio to spend an exorbitant amount – unnecessarily. Interviewer: And the zombies aren’t loaded with the same sort of political meaning. Romero: Nothing. I mean I don’t see anything. It’s a disaster movie. They were even carefully avoiding the word. You had to extrapolate it from Z. People who didn’t know the book might figure World War Z means the final world war. They’ve finally got to the letter Z! Even in the advertising, they never used the world zombies; they never showed a shot that looked like zombies. They look like army ants, you know? Interviewer: Are you keen to keep up to date and watch a new zombie film if there is a big one out? Romero: No… I sort of had to watch that one. They invited me to watch it. They wanted me to say something nice, I think [laughs]." (George A. Romero's interview with James Blackford, Sight & Sound, 2014)

Zack Snyder answers the major criticism of his remake of George A. Romero's "Dawn of the De@d" (1978): "Interviewer: The most common criticism of your film is that it doesn't go as deeply into sociology as Romero's film–I disagree with that read, I don't think the original is all that deep and, in fact, I think that your picture has a broader, subtler, more satirical edge. Snyder: I feel like it does, too. One of the comments I've made is that when Romero made his movie, mass consumerism was a really fresh topic, y'know, something that we were first waking up to. People were more unaware that they were living in a mass consumerist society, but now, man, if people don't know that we're living in a commercial, a cynically commercial, society now, a movie ain't gonna wake you up to it. We took a lot of time and effort on the satirical structure–even the construction of the mall was meant to reflect this corporate vision of our world. A sophisticated aesthetic to give the illusion of uniqueness when the truth is that it's mass-produced, manufactured, and given over to the illusion of specialness. Interviewer: Echoing the fact of the film itself… Snyder: Exactly. The way it's marketed and sold–a movie modeled after a cult classic to emulate that cult experience–but it's none of those things. I mean, it's Universal Studios. (laughs) That part of it, the movie itself is a conversation about mass consumerism and just how hard–how impossible–it is to replicate sort of the pioneering spirit of Romero. But we can do this self-knowing thing without being self-hating and that's the line to walk." (Zack Snyder's interview to Film Freak Central, 2004)

Clint Eastwood was the first actor to be offered the role of Kay in "Men in Black" (1997) but he turned it down. Tommy Lee Jones also turned it down, feeling that the first draft of the script had not captured what he liked about the comic book when producers Parkes and MacDonald had first sent it to him; Jones has said that it was executive producer Steven Spielberg who persuaded him to change his mind, promising that the script would improve. ("Comic Book Movies", David Hughes, 2003) P.S: On this day, 29 years ago, "Men in Black" (1997) was released in the USA and Canada.

The Media Exposed Its Allegiance to the Government by Doing the FBI's Work for Them "It was the New York Times and The Washington Post that did the FBI's work and found the leaker and led the FBI to him!" exclaimed Glenn Greenwald. "They love leaks when the CIA and Homeland Security tell them to leak ... but when it comes to transparency, that undermines the agenda of these agencies ... it's amazing that these journalists err on the side of the government and will actually hunt down the leaker and demand that he be punished even more."

Exactly one week after our babies were born, two of our incredible NICU nurses made MAGIC happen and got all our babies into our arms for the very first time, and nothing could have prepared me for that feeling !!!! Immediately after we had our first ultrasound showing us that we were pregnant with FOUR spontaneously conceived babies (with zero increased risk factors for multiples!!!) we were told over and over by doctors to greatly consider selective reduction - that the risk was too high for the babies to make it and the best option would be to reduce the pregnancy to 1 or 2 fetuses. Well, we didn't. And if only I could go back and tell that girl who was so scared and so worried that it would all be okay....

Stephen A. Smith on Sheduer Sanders: "I believe that the biggest issue in all of this was Primetime Deion Sanders and the thought of having to deal with him... it's hard for me to sit here today and to watch a dude that was once projected to be one of the top 2 picks potentially in the draft to drop completely out of the first round and to ignore all those reports that had come out about him leading into the draft."

U.S. Gen. David Petraeus on Hannity, on Fox News: “There was absolute certainty about the pattern of life, and clearly I suspect this was one of the factors that led to the timing. Also, of course, there was the absolute frustration that the Iranians were playing us at the negotiating table over the nuclear program, and also a degree of impatience, frankly, about doing damage to the missile program that was being reconstituted, remembering the damage it did to Israel before. So I think all of those factors came together for the timing, and the opportunity to take out the Supreme Leader and all those meeting with him was really quite extraordinary. As I did say, it was stunning arrogance that they thought we would only attack in the early hours of the morning. Yes, that’s normally when we do, but in this case, we achieved surprise by attacking during the daylight and achieved something truly historic.”

Stratosphere was our biggest and heaviest character on #Transformers ROTB. He was a real challenge to deal with on the Modeling, Texturing, and Rendering side. He had 1434 UDIMs due to his immense scale and was made up of tens of thousands of objects. His level of detail was truly something else. His vehicle form was also a behemoth. We had also built a mortar for his robot form and a cannon for his vehicle form but neither of these made it into the film as his part in the final battle was cut out. He was originally supposed to help out in the final battle, using both of these weapons against the Sweepers and Predacons. The decision to cut him from the final act came very late as all of his assets were final at that point. We were never told the reason why his role was cut from the film. I had to re-design my texturing system in Mari when working on him to ensure that it could handle such a complex and large character. I had to simplify a lot of the procedural systems and even had to branch off some of them into their own files to ensure that artists could work with somewhat decent performance. We ran into a lot of issues pushing him through our pipeline, both as a model as well as rendering him due to the sheer amount of objects and textures that had to be processed. For shots, it was requested by Lighting that we reduce his memory footprint as Google had complained he was taking up too much memory and their I/O for rendering on the cloud was being affected. The leadership team and I decided that the best way to do this was to half the texel density on the parts that wouldn't be visible in our approved shots and to also half the resolution of the textures in the parts not visible to camera. This allowed us to optimize his memory footprint both in shots as well as storage and I/O. It was massive technical undertaking working on Stratosphere, so much so that we had to delay getting him into shots as we simply couldn't push him through with our normal tooling. I really enjoyed the challenge that he posed for us as a team.
