Albert gives his analysis on the teaser for 'Avatar: The Way of Water'.

•

Avatar is a multimedia universe centred on the indigenous peoples of the distant planet of Pandora, a reality-based paracosm created by filmmaker-engineer-activist James Cameron. Taking inspiration from (and ultimately acting as a paean to) our own earth and its many First Nations cultures, Avatar promotes 'artivism' (activism through art) to inspire changes in how we treat ourselves, others, and the planet. It is one of the most successful media properties ever, including films, interactive experiences, books, music, attractions, and more.

Apple's WWDC at the San Jose Convention Center (May 13-16) showcased the progress made in developing a new Mac OS called Rhapsody, which used OpenStep as its foundation. The system included a modified version of OpenStep with a more Mac-like interface (Yellow Box) and an emulation feature (Blue Box) to run existing Mac apps. The conference highlighted new features, such as tabbed and outline views, and an object-based graphics layer. This was the first show after NeXT's purchase, and the development teams had been merged on February 4.

Albert discusses his kinship with the Alien universe, gives his ideas on its future, and much more.

🗃️

The Alien franchise is a captivating science-fiction horror universe that delves into various thought-provoking themes. Among these themes, it skilfully examines the concept of abiogenesis, contemplating the mysterious origins of life itself. It also explores the contrasting elements of connection and indifference, emphasising the importance of human relationships in the face of the unknown. The portrayal of motherhood is another compelling aspect, showcasing the fierce maternal instincts and sacrifices made in the darkest corners of space. Furthermore, the franchise delves into the dichotomy of nature versus artifice, questioning the limits of human ingenuity and the consequences of playing with forces beyond our control. Ultimately, Alien lures audiences into the depths of space, where the enigmatic and unfathomable remain an eternal mystery.

In this fascinating interview and Q&A session, we dive deep into the making of the critically acclaimed horror film, The Witch, with three of its key players: Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Ineson, and Robert Eggers.

Anya Taylor-Joy, who plays the lead character Thomasin in the movie, takes us on a journey through her experience of embodying a character who is torn between her family and her own desires, amidst the eerie and unsettling atmosphere of the 17th-century New England wilderness.

Ralph Ineson, who portrays Thomasin's father, William, shares his insights on the film's exploration of the intersection of religious fanaticism and family dynamics, as well as his experiences working with goats, who play a crucial role in the movie's haunting imagery.

Director Robert Eggers provides a rare glimpse into his creative process and how he crafted the film's tense and unsettling atmosphere, drawing inspiration from real historical accounts of witchcraft and meticulously researching and recreating the details of a bygone era.

Together, the trio provides an intriguing and thought-provoking look into the making of a modern horror classic that has captivated audiences and critics alike. From the psychological depths of the characters to the intricacies of the film's production, this interview and Q&A has it all, and is not to be missed by fans of the genre.
