Cult Films

Cult Films
Cult Films have limited but very special appeal. Cult films are usually strange, quirky, offbeat, eccentric, oddball, or surreal, with outrageous, weird, unique and cartoony characters or plots, and garish sets. They are often considered controversial because they step outside standard narrative and technical conventions. Most cult films cut across many film genres (science fiction, horror, melodrama, etc.), although some film genres are also more prone to being cultish, such as the horror or sci-fi genres. Many cult films feature or effectively showcase the performance of newcomers or other unknown talented actors/actresses. More about Cult Films: Many cult films fared poorly at the box office when first shown, but then achieved cult-film status, developing an enduring loyalty and following among fans over time, often through word-of-mouth recommendations. One of the biggest, best-known cult films was not intended to become so popular. Music-Based Cult Films: Well-Regarded Cult Films:

15 Film Production Credits Explained Ever wonder what all those strange credits are when they roll by at the end of a film? I used to, until I moved to LA, where I started meeting Best Boys and Dolly Grips with their kids when I took my son to the playground—yes, Hollywood, where you meet Gaffers and Armourers at your average Saturday night house party. So I started asking questions, and here's what I've learned: 1. Boom Operator No, this job has nothing to do with explosives or pyrotechnics. 2. Now this job does deal with explosives, of a sort. 3. Though the gaffer manages the entire electrical department, all the guys who run cables and hang lights, his main responsibility is mounting and positioning lights and lighting rigs. 4. Grips are sort of like worker bees. 5. This guy runs the Grips dept and assists the Gaffer. 6. This guy has nothing at all to do with a wedding, unless we're talking something like Wedding Crashers . 7. A dolly grip operates the movie camera dolly. 8. 9. 10. This guy oversees the painting dept. 11.

30 post-apocalyptic visions of the 21st Century @DuranGrey: Sorry, but Fuck That. The Stand, although I did love it when I first read it, has seen the light of day already. I looked forward that TV miniseries back in 1994, but it was plodding and much too long. Stephen King should not be allowed to write screenplays for his own work. I want The Dark Tower. I know I will be disappointed, but I want it. @cinnarose: Is he still allowed to write original screenplays? That shit was powerful.

WASHOKU - Japanese Food Culture and Cuisine Minimal TikTok Watch Band for iPod Nano 6G - White: Amazon.co.uk: Amazon.co.uk: I did a lot of research on watch straps for my iPod nano and this brand seemed to be the top of the line by far, based on reviews and pictures of each strap. Wasn't too happy about the price but when I got the TikToK in the mail I was impressed. Whatever it's made of is not cheap plastic and I can't see this breaking anytime soon. The nano snaps in place and fits seamlessly into the holder and there is no way it can fall off. A lot of other straps seem to use plastic tongues that attach to the clip to hold it in place, but the TikTok has a much more secure dock. It's also nice cause you have full access to the buttons and can even plug in the charger while it's on the strap. For people worried about size: I measured the inside of the strap with a sewing tape measure. I've only had this for a few days, but one thing I noticed right away is that your earphones will get in the way ALL THE TIME.

Card Sharing SkyTV, Sports, Sky movies free Dreambox DM800HD | Photography-Factory : London's best professional photographers This post contains a detailed technical description of how card sharing works as well as how we stumbled onto this activity. If you find this information interesting please click like on our facebook page, it will only take a second it really helps us a hell-of-a-lot. Recently did a shot for our long term art photographic project called “Workers”, there is no one paying us, it is a bit of “personal work” as they used to call it. That process led us into contact with some little known illegal activity, namely the decoding of premium sky TV satalite broadcast without paying SKY. We have been doing this photography project for a long time and we have photographed, mechanics, doctors, shoemakers, singers, ministers, prostitutes in there places of work. So this is exactly how it works (will try to explain all the concept of digital TV encryption and decryption as I go): So was it real?

TibetanBuddhistMantras.com - Tibetan Buddhist Mantras, Prayers and Practices Intel Iris Pro 5200 Graphics Review: Core i7-4950HQ Tested As Intel got into the chipset business it quickly found itself faced with an interesting problem. As the number of supported IO interfaces increased (back then we were talking about things like AGP, FSB), the size of the North Bridge die had to increase in order to accommodate all of the external facing IO. Eventually Intel ended up in a situation where IO dictated a minimum die area for the chipset, but the actual controllers driving that IO didn’t need all of that die area. The budget for Intel graphics was always whatever free space remained once all other necessary controllers in the North Bridge were accounted for. Intel hired some very passionate graphics engineers, who always petitioned Intel management to give them more die area to work with, but the answer always came back no. A few years ago they got that break. Not wanting to invest in older fab technology, Intel management green-lit the second option: to move the Graphics and Memory Controller Hub onto the CPU die.
