Production of "Equilibrium" began in the early 2000s with Kurt Wimmer both writing and directing the film. The movie was set in a future society where emotions were suppressed and prohibited, and a special police force known as "Grammaton Clerics" enforced this emotionless state. The film had a modest budget, which influenced its visual style. To create the distinctive and minimalist look of the film, the production team drew inspiration from sources such as classic German expressionist cinema and dystopian literature. Christian Bale was cast as the film's lead, John Preston, a high-ranking Grammaton Cleric who undergoes a transformation as he starts to experience emotions. Bale's performance was a key highlight of the production, showcasing his dedication to the role. The action sequences, featuring a unique martial art known as "Gun Kata," were choreographed and executed with precision, contributing to the film's distinctive style. "Equilibrium" was released in 2002 to mixed critical reviews but gained a cult following over the years for its visually striking dystopian world and action sequences. While it didn't achieve widespread commercial success upon its initial release, it remains notable in the science fiction genre for its exploration of the suppression of human emotions in a totalitarian society.

Christian Bale stars as John Preston, a high-ranking officer in the regime's law enforcement known as the "Grammaton Clerics." Their duty is to eradicate any emotional expression, including art, literature, and even personal relationships. However, when Preston accidentally misses a dose of the emotion-suppressing drug, he begins to experience feelings and questions the system he has devoted his life. He joins a group of rebels seeking to overthrow the regime and restore emotions to humanity. As he becomes a symbol of resistance, Preston faces a moral dilemma: to uphold the regime's oppressive order or embrace his newfound emotions and fight for a more compassionate world. "Equilibrium" is a thrilling exploration of the power of emotions and the human spirit in a repressive society. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thevhsstrikesback/support

linktr.ee/CatchingUpOnCinema This week, Trevor and Kyle review Kurt Wimmer's, Equilibrium (2002)! A stylish actioner, Equilibrium is a fine dystopian sci-fi film that occasionally punches above it's budgetary weight class in terms of action design and presentation. Perhaps written and pushed into production as a result of the success of The Wachowski's, The Matrix (1999), as well as drawing inspiration from classic genre fiction, like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, and Brave New World, the story of Equilibrium is set against the backdrop of Libria, a near future city that has opted to forcibly suppress the emotional capabilities of its populace. Fascist and totalitarian, everything from the policies, to the wardrobe and architecture of Libria, are very intentionally evocative of Hitler's Nazi party. Starring Christian Bale, and featuring strong supporting performances from capable actors such as Emily Watson, Sean Bean, and Taye Diggs, on paper one would expect Equilibrium to be an actor's film, however in actuality, the film's action design and aesthetics prove to be its most memorable elements. Making use of a fictional martial art referred to as “Gun Kata,” the film features several brief, but dynamic and cleverly staged action sequences that manage to wow, in spite of the more technical aspects of their execution being formulated via clever editing rather than raw athleticism and performance. With sincere performances, and an efficient, if not somewhat plodding script, Equilibrium is not essential viewing for fans of the genre or it's numerous stars, however it maintains minor cult status and remains highly capable scratching any potential itches one might have for the very specific flavor that is “early 2000's action.” A fine and well considered genre film that would likely fail to live up to expectations if one has them going in, but may potentially surprise or impress viewers going in blind.

In a future post WW3, humanity has been deemed unworthy of emotion and banned from feeling. To enforce this passionless world, citizens are required to administer a suppressant known as Prozium II, and enforcers known as Clerics, trained in the art of Gun Kata, root out and destroy all contraband and personnel that could lead to any sensation.

So you ever post the wrong episode early in the morning..Well I did but you might not know that Anyway....GUN KATA

Auf leisen Sohlen tanzen wir die Gun-Kata, und schwadronieren bei einem Schuß "Libria" über die verheerende Wirkung großer Kaliber auf kleine Körper. Das da die Charakterisierung "Schwertkampf" und "Dolph Lundgren" lautete, kann dabei schon mal in Vergessenheit geraten. Dafür haben wir jetzt 150 unvergessliche Minuten unvergleichlicher "Funalyse" auf die Tonspur gebracht, die euch hoffentlich dazu veranlassen auf einem der Social-Media-Kanäle  Bullet und Fist: Der Dim Mak unter den Actionpodcasts - Beiträge | Facebook Bullet und Fist (@UndFist) / Twitter Bullet und Fist (@bulletundfist) • Instagram-Fotos und -Videos ‎„Bullet und Fist“ auf Apple Podcasts  oder bei Letterboxd: ‎Nachtwaechter's profile • Letterboxd ‎johnholmes's profile • Letterboxd ein paar nette Worte zu hinterlassen.

Kvothe does some silly spy stuff so he can eavesdrop on Denna and the girl. We talk about the comical extent of Kvothe's spy stuff, and we learn that the geometric distribution of enemy combatants in a gun battle is a statistically predictable element. We return to the book to discuss Denna's characterization, Please forgive us if the audio quality of this episode is a little spotty - Jeremy was editing it while he was suffering the side effects of his second dose. @pageofthewind pageofthewind.com If you want to donate to the SFWA's Legal Fund to help ensure that authors like Alan Dean Foster are paid the royalties they are owed, here is the link: https://www.sfwa.org/about/benevolent-funds/legal-fund/ If you would like to donate to help the Palestinian people in their ongoing struggle against settler-colonial violence, you can donate at these links: Islamic Relief Canada https://www.islamicreliefcanada.org/emergencies/palestine/?utm_campaign=12848446276&utm_source=google&utm_medium=ppc&utm_content=517142162113&utm_term&adgroupid=124171132249&gclid=CjwKCAjwy42FBhB2EiwAJY0yQpP3kc82omP-G5rZHYvoXKG-8z5mRcorlQ-sQvHgiGLNlz6x-l9vmxoC1yEQAvD_BwE Eye on Palestine facebook.com/eyeonpalestine.official/

To give you a little peek behind the #ITILTM curtain, we've had to do some creative juggling due to some unforeseen technical issues. But that doesn't mean we don't have a new episode for you this week. Or, in non-double negative speak...here's your new episode! Friend and fellow podcaster Rory Murphy joins the fun and brings us the 2002 Christian Bale vehicle “Equilibrium,” a dystopian sci-fi affair in which feelings have been outlawed in order to create an ideal, peaceful society. You can imagine why that might not work. So, yeah, Will sounds like he's stuck in grain silo or something, but hopefully that's not too distracting. Blame Skype. Or blame us. Whatever makes you happy. Enjoy, and we'll see you back here next week.

This week we're talking a sci-fi classic, Equilibrium. Starring Christian Bale and Taye Diggs, this futuristic parable tells the tale of a society without emotions and the one cop who breaks all the rules to feel again. We talk about how this may be the best "society without emotions movie," and how much fun Taye Diggs is having while also discussing whether the martial art invented for this film, Gun Kata, helps or hurts the film! Come for the Gun Kata, stay for the examination of why emotions are so important to humans. Hope you guys enjoy!

Even more breathlessly than usual, Ben and Tao discuss the (quite literal) ups and downs of fast-paced parkour slasher, Ghostrunner. They get competitive in stat-chat to see whose reflexes aren’t quite holding up with age, discuss the increasing trend towards masochistic games and the Crash Bandicoot dilemma, and whether autosaves are the difference between a good, challenging game and a gamer’s hellscape. Chunky story spoilers, but no-one plays this game for the story. Content Warning: PEGI 12. Some swearing, lots of shooting, sweaty palms. Clarifications: Mirror’s Edge Catalyst was not an exclusive. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in North America in June 2016. The firearm-based martial art used by Kurt Wimmer and Jim Vickers in their 2002 film Equilibrium is Gun Kata. Atlas is the name of the Bioshock character who Ben compares with Whisper aka. The Architect.

Would It Fly: Gun-kata? Passengers, please ensure all selt belts and Nines are strapped, because where we're headin, you're going to need both.  On today's episode we discuss Christian Bale's life as a Cleric, in the movie 'Equilibrium' and just how realistic it would be to implement the Cleric's Gun-Kata teachings, into the tactics of military and law enforcement today. Gun Kata, or Gun Fu, is a form of martial arts in which firearms are used as an extension of ones self in order to defeat ones oppenent(s), not only in hand-tohand combat, but in a fire-fight as well.  Well, atleast that's what it has been since Director John Woo introduced us all to it in the film 'A Better Tomorrow' in 1986.  Since then it has become a staple of the 2000s and late 90s action movies, in which firefights are choregraphed like dances. As we've seen, GunKata works great in the movies, but when it comes to real life: Will it Fly?   Co-Pilot: Paddy Bukowski
