1, 2, Freddy's coming for you… again! We're diving deep into the controversial 2010 remake of “A Nightmare on Elm Street” for its (almost unbelievable) 15th anniversary! Was Samuel Bayer's vision truly a nightmare, or an unfairly maligned attempt to resurrect the horror icon created by Wes Craven? We dissect the script rewrites from Wesley Strick and Eric Heisserer, Jackie Earle Haley's take on Freddy Krueger, and the performances of Kyle Gallner, Rooney Mara, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker, and Kellan Lutz. Joining in for this discussion after a long absence is our boy Donnie (@thedonnierequel on Instagram), who was one of the first guests of Back To The Blockbuster who helped turn it into what it is today. It's a dream having him back but is this remake a nightmare worthy of horror praise or is it a bad dream we'd all like to forget?

Author Ted Chiang (EXHALATION, STORIES OF YOUR LIFE AND OTHERS) joins the show to reflect on having his work adapted by director Denis Villeneuve into the 2016 film “Arrival.” In episode 324, Luke Elliott & James Bailey add to their “Creative Conversations” series where they discuss adaptations previously covered on Ink to Film with someone directly involved in their creation. Topics include the origins of the “Story of Your Life,” why determinism is essential for the existence of free will, the narrative convenience of having a fate you can change, how screenwriter Eric Heisserer managed to adapt a story thought to be unfilmable, Ted's visit to the set, and who might be a good fit for a future Ted Chiang adaptation.   Pickup Stories of Your Life and Exhalation by Ted Chiang at the Ink to Film Bookshop! https://bookshop.org/shop/inktofilm Support Ink to Film on Patreon for bonus content, merch, and the ability to vote on upcoming projects! https://www.patreon.com/inktofilm Ink to Film's Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky (@inktofilm) Home Base: inktofilm.com   Luke Elliott Website: www.lukeelliottauthor.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/luminousluke IG: https://www.instagram.com/lpelliott/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@lpelliott Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/luminousluke.bsky.social James Bailey Twitter: https://twitter.com/Jame_Bail IG: https://www.instagram.com/jamebail/

Hey, everyone! Legendary is bringing back Pacific Rim with a brand new prequel series. This one's going to dive into the origins of the kaiju franchise, something we haven't really seen explored in depth before. The show is being developed by Eric Heisserer, the writer behind Arrival and Shadow and Bone, under a new deal with Legendary. This could be a great chance to dig deeper into the backstory of the Pacific Rim universe and see how it all started. I think exploring the origins of the franchise is a smart move that could really add some depth to the world Guillermo del Toro created back in 2013. Stay tuned for more updates!

Nueva sección en Nuestro Podcast "ABRIR EN CASO DE...." HOY VIAJAR AL FUTURO. Ted Chiang: “La ciencia-ficción hace creíble cualquier premisa de la filosofía”. Autor del relato que inspiró la película La llegada, el pope de lo fantástico especulativo (y redactor de manuales de 'software') repiensa la relación entre humanidad y tecnología en 'Exhalación', su segundo libro de cuentos en 30 años. Descuelga el teléfono virtual en lo que parece su despacho, allá en el lejano y aún no tan frío Seattle. Hay una pared forrada de libros a sus espaldas. Lleva cascos, es por la mañana. Dice que empezó a escribir a los 11 años, después de leer a Isaac Asimov. Cuando se le pregunta si se considera más un filósofo que un escritor de ciencia-ficción, se ríe. No a carcajadas, porque todo en Ted Chiang (Nueva York, 53 años) es contención. Ha escrito apenas 19 relatos en 30 años, pero con todos ha dado en algún tipo de blanco. El mundo le conoce por lo que Denis Villeneuve y Eric Heisserer hicieron con uno de ellos. El libro se titulaba La historia de tu vida y ponía al ser humano contra las cuerdas del orden narrativo, y de su propia condición de máquina del tiempo. De eso iba La llegada, la película que protagonizó Amy Adams, en la piel de una heroína atípica que intenta comunicarse con una raza extraterrestre para la que no existe el tiempo. Todo para ellos ocurre a la vez, porque su lenguaje no comprende el pasado, el presente y el futuro. “No me consideraría filósofo, pero es cierto que escribo sobre cuestiones filosóficas. La ciencia-ficción es perfecta para eso. Hace atractiva y creíble cualquier premisa del pensamiento. Hoy el mundo leería más filosofía si, en vez de redactar tratados, los filósofos hubiesen escrito relatos de ciencia-ficción”, responde. El autor no teme la etiqueta. Ocupa la cima del género fantástico desde la publicación de su primer libro de relatos, en 2002, y se siente cómodo en esa condición tan altamente literaria que lo vuelve indistinguible de cualquier otro tipo de género, que lo convierte, en realidad, en un género en sí mismo, y a él, en el alumno más aventajado de Isaac Asimov. No cree que el término tenga nada de malo. “La ciencia-ficción es un género poderoso, nos abre camino. Explora la inevitabilidad del cambio”, dice. /Fuente El País. Sus discursos son largos. Se detiene a pensar a menudo, se hace el silencio entonces, un silencio que tiende a romper con un “you” — pronunciado exactamente como se lee—, una muletilla que es como una pequeña base desde la que partir en otra dirección, o seguir sumergiéndose en la misma. Acaba de publicar Exhalación (Sexto Piso / Mai Més en catalán), su segunda colección de relatos. Tres de los nueve cuentos incluidos en ella ganaron en su momento el Premio Hugo. En total, y con tan solo los mencionados 19 relatos publicados, Chiang ha sido distinguido, entre otros, con cuatro Hugo, cuatro Nebula, seis Locus y el British Science Fiction Association Award. Es la primera vez que ocurre algo así. Que alguien con tan poca obra haya ganado tantos premios y supuesto semejante revolución. Chiang ha sido finalista de los premios Hugo en 11 ocasiones, recibiendo el galardón en 4 de ellas ―en los años 2002, 2008, 2009 y 2011―.​ También ha ganado en 4 premios Nébula ―en las ediciones de 1990, 1999, 2002 y 2007― de las 6 ocasiones en las que ha sido finalista,12​ 6 premios Locus de 16 nominaciones, un premio Theodore Sturgeon Memorial de 6 nominaciones, un premio Sidewise, así como varios premios internacionales como el premio BSFA británico, el Grand Prix de l'Imaginaire francés, el premio Kurd Lasswitz alemán o el premio Seiun japonés.12​ En 1992 ganó el premio John W. Campbell al mejor escritor novel, galardón que otorga la Convención mundial de ciencia ficción junto con los Hugos.

The Podcast (TNC Podcast)- https://anchor.fm/wtfihpodShout Outs 21st August 2021 – Nick Davatzes, Cable Pioneer Who Launched A&E Network and History Channel, passes away at 79 - https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/nick-davatzes-dead-79-ceo-ae-networks-1235046271/ Nickolas Davatzes, longtime CEO of A+E Networks who steered the launch of A&E Network and History Channel has passed away. Davatzes joined the company as CEO in 1983 just as A&E Networks was formed through the merger of fledgling cable channels Entertainment Network, owned by RCA and the Rockefeller family, and ARTS Network, owned by Hearst and ABC. A+E Networks today is a 50-50 joint venture of the Walt Disney Co. and Hearst Corp. Davatzes served as CEO emeritus. Davatzes led the company's launch of the signature A&E Network (an amalgam of Arts and Entertainment) in 1984 and History Channel in 1995 (History formally dropped “Channel” from its moniker in 2008). He served as CEO of the parent company through 2005, when he was succeeded by protege Abbe Raven, who started at the company as a secretary. Davatzes was known for promoting educational outreach and the importance of industry R&D during his run at A&E Networks. The company later expanded to include the Lifetime cable channel as well as more recent entries like lifestyle channel FYI and Lifetime Movie Network. Disney executive chairman Bob Iger hailed him as a “towering figure in the early days of cable television (who helped) build some of the most iconic brands in the media landscape.” Iger added that he was “a person of true integrity.” He died in Wilton, Connecticut.24th August 2021 – Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts passes away at 80 - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-25/rolling-stones-drummer-charlie-watts-dies-at-age-80/100404658Charlie Watts, the drummer who provided the backbone of the Rolling Stones' songs for more than half a century, has died. Watts "passed away peacefully in a London hospital earlier today surrounded by his family," his publicist Bernard Doherty said. "Charlie was a cherished husband, father and grandfather and also as a member of The Rolling Stones, as one of the greatest drummers of his generation." The quiet, elegantly dressed Watts was often ranked with Keith Moon, Ginger Baker and a handful of others as a premier rock drummer, respected worldwide for his muscular, swinging style as the band rose from its scruffy beginnings to international superstardom. He joined the Stones early in 1963 and remained over the next 60 years, ranked just behind Jagger and Keith Richards as the group's longest lasting and most essential members. Watts stayed on, and largely held himself apart, through the drug abuse, creative clashes and ego wars that helped kill founding member Brian Jones, drove bassist Bill Wyman and Jones' replacement Mick Taylor to quit and otherwise made being in the Stones the most exhausting of jobs. The Stones began, Watts said, "as white blokes from England playing black American music" but quickly evolved their own distinctive sound. Watts was a jazz drummer in his early years and never lost his affinity for the music he first loved, heading his own jazz band and taking on numerous other side projects. He had his eccentricities — Watts liked to collect cars even though he didn't drive and would simply sit in them in his garage. But he was a steadying influence on stage and off as the Stones defied all expectations by rocking well into their 70s, decades longer than their old rivals The Beatles. He died in London with his family around him.25th August 2021 – Linux turns 30 - https://www.zdnet.com/article/linus-torvalds-on-linuxs-30th-birthday/ In 1991, Unix was an important but secondary x86 operating system. That year, on August 25, a mild-mannered Finnish graduate student named Linus Benedict Torvalds announced on the Usenet group comp.os.minix that he was working on "a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones." No one knew it, not even Torvalds, but the technology was going to change forever. Thirty years later, Linux rules IT. Almost all major websites -- including Google, Facebook, and Wikipedia -- run on Linux. It's the same with the clouds. Even on Microsoft's own Azure, the most popular operating system is Linux. As for supercomputers, all 500 of the world's fastest 500 supercomputers run Linux. Thanks to Android, Linux is also the most popular end-user operating system. Not bad for a hobby operating system! In those very first days, Linux wasn't formally known as Linux. Torvalds explained, "Linux was my working name, but I never wanted to release it as Linux. Linux was a perfectly good working name, but if I actually used it as the official one, people would think that I am an egomaniac and wouldn't take it seriously. So I chose this very bad name, "Freax," for "Free Unix." Fortunately, the first Linux administrator Ari Lemmk, decided Freax was a silly name too. Hence, he actually named it Linux because he thought this internal project name was Torvalds first choice.Remembrances25th August 1822 – William Herschel - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_HerschelGerman-born British astronomer and composer. He frequently collaborated with his younger sister and fellow astronomer Caroline Lucretia Herschel. Born in the Electorate of Hanover, William Herschel followed his father into the military band of Hanover, before emigrating to Great Britain in 1757 at the age of nineteen. Herschel constructed his first large telescope in 1774, after which he spent nine years carrying out sky surveys to investigate double stars. Herschel published catalogues of nebulae in 1802 (2,500 objects) and in 1820 (5,000 objects). The resolving power of the Herschel telescopes revealed that many objects called nebulae in the Messier catalogue were actually clusters of stars. On 13 March 1781 while making observations he made note of a new object in the constellation of Gemini. This would, after several weeks of verification and consultation with other astronomers, be confirmed to be a new planet, eventually given the name of Uranus. This was the first planet to be discovered since antiquity, and Herschel became famous overnight. As a result of this discovery, George III appointed him Court Astronomer. He was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society and grants were provided for the construction of new telescopes. Herschel pioneered the use of astronomical spectrophotometry, using prisms and temperature measuring equipment to measure the wavelength distribution of stellar spectra. In the course of these investigations, Herschel discovered infrared radiation. Other work included an improved determination of the rotation period of Mars, the discovery that the Martian polar caps vary seasonally, the discovery of Titania and Oberon (moons of Uranus) and Enceladus and Mimas (moons of Saturn). Herschel was made a Knight of the Royal Guelphic Order in 1816. He was the first President of the Royal Astronomical Society when it was founded in 1820. He died at the age of 83 at Observatory House, Windsor Road, Slough Herschel's epitaph is Coelorum perrupit claustra (He broke through the barriers of the heavens).Famous Birthdays25th August 1819 – Allan Pinkerton - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_PinkertonScottish–American detective and spy, best known for creating the Pinkerton National Detective Agency. Pinkerton first became interested in criminal detective work while wandering through the wooded groves around Dundee, looking for trees to make barrel staves, when he came across a band of counterfeiters, who may have been affiliated with the notorious Banditti of the Prairie. After observing their movements for some time he informed the local sheriff, who arrested them. This later led to Pinkerton being appointed, in 1849, as the first police detective in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. In 1850, he partnered with Chicago attorney Edward Rucker in forming the North-Western Police Agency, which later became Pinkerton & Co, and finally Pinkerton National Detective Agency, still in existence today as Pinkerton Consulting and Investigations, a subsidiary of Securitas AB. Pinkerton's business insignia was a wide open eye with the caption "We never sleep." As the US expanded in territory, rail transport increased. Pinkerton's agency solved a series of train robberies during the 1850s, first bringing Pinkerton into contact with George McClellan, then Chief Engineer and Vice President of the Illinois Central Railroad, and Abraham Lincoln, the company's lawyer. When the Civil War began, Pinkerton served as head of the Union Intelligence Service during the first two years, heading off an alleged assassination plot in Baltimore, Maryland while guarding Abraham Lincoln on his way to Washington, D.C. as well as identifying troop numbers in military campaigns. His agents often worked undercover as Confederate soldiers and sympathizers to gather military intelligence. Pinkerton himself served on several undercover missions as a Confederate soldier using the alias Major E.J. Allen. He worked across the Deep South in the summer of 1861, focusing on fortifications and Confederate plans. This counterintelligence work done by Pinkerton and his agents is comparable to the work done by today's U.S. Army Counterintelligence Special Agents in which Pinkerton's agency is considered an early predecessor. He was succeeded as Intelligence Service chief by Lafayette Baker; the Intelligence Service was the predecessor of the U.S. Secret Service. His work led to the establishment of the Federal secret service. Despite his agency's later reputation for anti-labor activities, Pinkerton himself was heavily involved in pro-labor politics as a young man. Though Pinkerton considered himself pro-labor, he opposed strikes and distrusted labor unions. He was born in Gorbals, Glasgow.Events of Interest25th August 1957- The Invisible Man Vs. The Human Fly premiered in Japan - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0204691/ A star is born! On this day in 1957 (in Japan), The Invisible Man Vs. The Human Fly took to the silver screen for a monster of a pairing! Directed by Mitsuo Murayama, the SciFi/Fantasy starred Ryûji Shinagawa and Yoshirô Kitahara; and here's the plot summary: "A ruthless serial killer with a peculiar method of stalking and killing his victims comes face to face with a police officer turned invisible by a scientific experiment. Who will emerge triumphant?" In the late 1950s, in the United States this film was announced, and stills were published, under the English language title "The Murdering Mite." This film shares part of its Japanese title with the Japanese release of the much better-known 1958 U.S. science fiction film The Fly, which was released in Japan as Fear of the Fly Man (ハエ男の恐怖 Hae Otoko no Kyōfu), though with the 'Fly' in "Fly Man" spelled in katakana rather than kanji characters. While both films feature "fly men," The Invisible Man vs. The Human Fly actually predates the latter film by almost an entire year.25th August 1989 – Voyager 2 spacecraft makes its closest approach to Neptune, the last planet in the Solar System at the time, due to Pluto being within Neptune's orbit from 1979 to 1999 - https://www.wired.com/2010/08/0825voyager2-neptune/ Voyager 2 makes its closest encounter with Neptune, passing just 3,000 miles above the cloud tops of the most distant planet in our solar system. The Voyager 2 space probe has been our most productive unmanned space voyage. It visited all four of the outer planets and their systems of moons and rings, including the first visits to previously unexplored Uranus and Neptune. Voyager 2 found four rings and evidence for ring arcs, or incomplete rings, above Neptune. That means all four of the gas giants in our solar system have rings. Neptune's, however, are very meager compared to the magnificent rings around Saturn. In the late 19th century, astronomers thought that an unseen Planet X was influencing the orbits of Uranus and Neptune. The observed positions of the two planets and their calculated positions differed. Among those astronomers convinced of the existence of Planet X was Clyde Tombaugh. In 1930 while scanning areas of the sky for Planet X, he found Pluto. When Voyager 2 flew by Neptune, it took very precise measurements of Neptune's mass and found it to be about 0.5 percent less massive than previous estimates. When the orbits of Uranus and Neptune were recalculated using the more accurate mass figure, it became clear that the imprecise number for Neptune -- and not the gravity of an unseen planet -- had caused the observed orbital discrepancies. After its encounter with Neptune, the spacecraft was rechristened the Voyager Interstellar Mission by NASA to take measurements of the interplanetary magnetic field, plasma and charged-particle environment. But mostly it's searching for the heliopause, the distance at which the solar wind becomes subsumed by the more general interstellar wind.IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook- Page - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/- Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/440485136816406/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/Email - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comSupport via Podhero- https://podhero.com/podcast/449127/nerds-amalgamated See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Il s'agit sûrement de l'un des plus gros projets Netflix à venir : Shadow & Bone est l'adaptation de l'oeuvre de fantasy de Leigh Bardugo, à savoir la trilogie Grisha ainsi que la duologie Six of Crows, toutes les deux situées du même univers. Selon le showrunner de la série Eric Heisserer, la série devrait durer trois saisons et couvrir l'intégralité du Grishaverse, soit les cinq livres de toute la saga. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHJYYd_RnJc Le scénariste avait même abandonné le projet quand il a su que Netflix n'avait les droits que de la première trilogie. Pour le convaincre, la plateforme a donc fait les démarches nécessaires pour la suite de l'oeuvre, Six of Crows, ce qui l'a ainsi convaincu de revenir pour de bon sur la série. Shadow and Bone est donc à voir sur Netflix dès 23 avril prochain.

Paul Walker's performance in Hours is a different animal. In the film, he stars as a man who loses his wife during childbirth and must watch over his ailing newborn in a hospital evacuated by the threat of Hurricane Katrina.

Plus, Eric Vespe (aka Quint) from Aint It Cool News will try to convince Geoff to see The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug regardless of how the dragon's name is pronounced, and we've got a fundamental screenwriting question on tap for both Geoff and Heisserer.
