The Bermuda Triangle

For decades, the Bermuda Triangle has been an area of mystery and intrigue for humanity. Tales of missing ships, airplanes and people who have dared to venture inside have left many questions about what this area might be.

There are many theories as to why these unexplained disappearances have occurred. Some of the most mystical explanations include:

· Aliens abducting humans for research

· Influence from the lost city of Atlantis

· Paranormal activity

· A mysterious vortex that sucks objects in like a black hole

Scientists, however, take a different stance on the mysterious disturbances, owing it to oceanic flatulence due to methane gas or disruptions in geomagnetic lines of flux.

Whatever the explanation, the ocean holds a lot of intrigue for humans, ever since the beginning of long distance sea faring. Tales of ships disappearing without a trace have become the work of legends as we try to understand how something can simply vanish into thin air without a trace.

The Philadelphia Experiment

On October 28, 1943, a classified experiment was taking place at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard in Pennsylvania. A U.S. Navy Destroyer escort called the USS Eldridge was claimed to have been rendered invisible to enemy devices.

Origins of this Story

In 1955, 12 years after the experiment occurred, a series of letters from an unknown source were sent to Morris K. Jessup, a writer and astronomer. At this time, Jessup had just published a book called The Case of the UFO which analyzed the potential existence of UFOs and their theoretical means of propulsion.

The Legend of the Stone Forest or Marcahuasi
Have you ever heard about the remote area known as Marcahuasi? It is in the Andes Mountains near Lima, Peru.

This area is shrouded in mystery. Partly because of huge granite rocks that fill the area and their eerie resemblance to faces, animals and religious symbols. There is debate about whether the rocks were shaped by pre-Columbian civilizations or if they are naturally occurring, as many archeologists believe.

Because of these mysterious rock formations, the area is sometimes referred to as the “stone forest” and there are plenty of stories and legends that have been passed down over time due to its mysterious origins.

The Man From Taured

It was a seemingly ordinary day in July 1954 at the Haneda Airport, now known as the Tokyo International Airport. The airport employees were busy welcoming weary travelers to the country and everything was business as usual. That was until a man approached the desk with his passport ready to be stamped.

The man was described as Caucasian with a beard but without any remarkable features, except for the fact that he was multi-lingual and although he spoke primarily French, he also spoke fluent Japanese.

When the man handed over his passport, the desk agent began to examine it carefully. It was then he realized that although the passport looked legitimate, it was from a country that didn’t exist as far as he knew. However, it should be noted at this point that the passport had several stamps from other countries including Japan. Upon further inspection, the desk agent conferred with his colleagues and none of them recognized the country either. They decided to take the man in for questioning.

Join us on Midnight Movie Nerds with Naomi Chusid and Luis Lacau as this week we explore the amazing teen films of the 90's.

The 1990s was a great decade to grow up in. Game consoles were getting big, some of the best music of the past 40 years was being made, and at multiplexes far and wide, cinemagoers were being treated to a raft of great teen movies covering masked killers, sex pacts, and school elections.

It was the decade that introduced the world to Reese Witherspoon, Freddie Prince Jr., Ryan Phillippe, Jason Biggs, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Alicia Silverstone to name but a few.

Building on the success of the slightly less polished teen hits of the '80s like Porky's and Fast Times At Ridgemont High, the '90s ushered in an era of slick, cool, teen-led movies of all shapes and sizes, and while much has changed in the time since, it still represents something of a golden era for this sub-genre of sorts.

But which of these movies sits at the top as the very best among its peers? Here are the 16 best '90s teen movies, ranked.

Join us on Midnight Movie Nerds with Naomi Chusid and Luis Lacau as this week we explore the amazing filmography of Disney Animated Films

Walt Disney Animation Studios (WDAS), sometimes shortened to Disney Animation, is an American animation studio that creates animated features and short films for The Walt Disney Company. Founded on October 16, 1923 by brothers Walt Disney and Roy O. Disney, it is one of the oldest-running animation studios in the world and currently acts as a division of Walt Disney Studios, being headquartered at the Roy E. Disney Animation Building at the Walt Disney Studios lot in Burbank, California. Since its foundation, the studio has produced 58 feature films, from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) to Frozen II (2019), and hundreds of short films.

Founded as Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio in 1923, renamed Walt Disney Studio in 1926 and incorporated as Walt Disney Productions in 1929, the studio was exclusively dedicated to producing short films until it expanded into feature production in 1934, resulting in 1937's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, one of the first full-length animated feature films and the first one made in the United States. In 1986, during a large corporate restructuring, Walt Disney Productions, which had grown from a single animation studio into an international multimedia company, was renamed The Walt Disney Company and the animation studio Walt Disney Feature Animation in order to differentiate it from the other divisions. Its current name was adopted in 2007 after Pixar Animation Studios was acquired by Disney in the previous year.

For much of its existence, the studio was recognized as the premier American animation studio;it developed many of the techniques, concepts and principles that became standard practices of traditional animation. The studio also pioneered the art of storyboarding, which is now a standard technique used in both animated and live-action filmmaking. The studio's catalog of animated features is among Disney's most notable assets, with the stars of its animated shorts – Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy and Pluto – becoming recognizable figures in popular culture and mascots for The Walt Disney Company as a whole.
