Introducing Ilm with AMAU - our five-year, semester-based Islamic Studies programme, developed through years of online teaching and student experience. It is built to take sincere Muslims wanting to study Islam, and guide them into becoming serious, grounded students of knowledge. The programme is shaped by a clear understanding of the challenges online students face: distraction, inconsistency, isolation, and lack of direction. Ilm with AMAU aims to close the gap between online learning and traditional on-site study by restoring clarity, discipline, and purpose to the digital learning space. The journey begins with Semester Zero - a practical foundation focused on mindset, habits, sincerity, and the discipline needed to sustain the path of seeking knowledge before formal study begins. With subjects including Aqeedah, Fiqh, Hadith, Tafseer, Seerah and Tarbiyah, this video offers an inside look into the vision, tone, and methodology of the programme.  If you want a clear sense of what studying with AMAU is like, this is where it starts.

We recorded this one live on #ScarifLive last week and dropping it in here this week. As I discuss movies and fandom in my day to day, I realize that as a kid, I wanted more of what I loved. Star Wars led me down a path of wanting to learn about ILM and Lucasfilm, etc. In turn I found out about Indiana Jones and Willow, Star Trek and countless other science fiction shows and movies because of my love of the genre. But I'm finding out that fans now a days hyper fixate on one aspect of an IP. No one talks about specific directors of special effects artists, etc. It was that curiosity that made me learn the names Ben Burtt, John Dykstra, Marcia Lucas, etc and that yearning never died. I brought a panel on to discuss how they experienced that yearning for more. We touched on how we learned about shows like Battlestar Galactica, Star Wars on TV as Scott put it and more. Are today's fans changing their need to reach out and seek more within the genre of sci fi and fantasy? If you love Darth Vader and don't know who Sebastian Shaw is then THIS might be an episode for you. Thanks for listening. Remember, we are a proud founding member of the RED5Network, and that's the scuttlebutt.

Flashback til 1998! Spice Girls var i radioen. X-files var på TV. Og Joe Dante lavede en film, der vist nok skulle være Toy Story for voksne, sammen med talentfulde folk fra ILM og Stan Winston Studios. I Kassen tager et flashback næsten 30 år tilbage i tiden for at tjekke om Small Soldiers er så ligegyldig, som vi husker. https://www.ikassenshow.dk/2026/02/i-kassen-1240-small-soldiers-1998.html

Latvijas biatlona vīru kvartets noslēdz olimpiskās spēles ar stafeti, izcīnot 18. vietu.  4x7,5km distancē pirmais devās Andrejs Rastorgujevs. Viņš abās šaušanas reizēs izmantoja pa divām rezerves patronām un nodeva stafeti Renāram Birkentālam 10. vietā. Renārs šaušanā iztērēja tikai vienu rezerves patronu un pacēlās uz 8. vietu. Trešajā etapā startēja Rihards Lozbers, kuram neveicās šaušanā, un viņš finišēja 17. vietā. Bet ceturtais startēja Edgars Mise. Stafetē Latvijas sportisti atgriezās pēc 16 gadu pārtraukuma, iepriekšējo reizi latvieši vīru stafetē piedalījās 2010. gada Vankūveras spēlēs un palika 18. vietā. Labākais sasniegums šajā disciplīnā bija 1998. gadā Nagano spēlēs ar Oļega Maļuhina, Ilmāra Briča, Gundara Upenieka un Jēkaba Nākuma pūliņiem izcīnītā 6. vieta. Vēl šovakar bobsleja divnieku ekipāžām trešais un ceturtais brauciens. Jēkabs Kalenda un Matīss Miknis pēc pirmās dienas ir olimpiskajā sešiniekā. Pēc plkst. 22, kad sāksies noslēdzošie braucieni bobslejistiem, sāksies arī Latvijas hokeja izlases dalība izslēgšanas turnīrā. Spēle ar Zviedriju.  Cerot uz veiksmi, uzklausām izlases kapteiņa Kaspara Daugaviņa iedvesmas vārdus savai komandai un arī līdzjutējiem. Un vēl kāds pārsteigumus – novēlējumu mūsu hokejistiem atsūtījis Kaspara Daugaviņa draugs un arī liels hokeja entuziasts, bijušais Latvijas basketbola izlases kapteinis Dairis Bertāns.  

Latvijas Nacionālajā mākslas muzejā ciklā “Paaudze” atklāta izstāde “Visāda garuma sapņi”. Šoreiz uzmanības centrā ir sirreālisma izpausmes grafiķu darbos 70. - 80. gados, kas ne vienmēr bijusi apzināta. Kā sirreālisms caurvij astoņu Latvijas grafiķu 70. - 80. gados veidotos darbus un kā tajos parādās šī mākslas virziena iezīmes, tostarp, sapņainums? Izstādes fokuss vērsts uz sirreālisma interpretācijām astoņu grafiķu – Māra Ārgaļa (1954–2008), Ilmāra Blumberga (1943–2016), Valijas Brences (1941–2009), Maijas Dragūnes (1945), Artura Ņikitina (1936–2022), Aijas Ozoliņas (1932–2023), Māras Rikmanes (1939) un Lolitas Zikmanes (1941) – daiļradē, izceļot šo talantīgo, bet pagaidām ne vienlīdz labi zināmo un pētīto autoru darbību padomju okupācijas periodā – 20. gadsimta 70. un 80. gados, kad sirreālisms līdzās abstrakcionismam tika iekļauts padomju ideoloģijai nevēlamo mākslas virzienu sarakstā. Sirreālisma pirmsākumi meklējami 20. gadu sākumā Parīzē un saistāmi ar dadaisma kustību. Par virziena dzimšanu pieņemts uzskatīt 1924. gadu, kad franču rakstnieks un dzejnieks Andrē Bretons (André Breton) publicēja pirmo “Sirreālisma manifestu”. Latvijā jau 20. gadu vidū termins parādījās presē, tomēr vizuālajā mākslā sirreālisma pazīmes ienāca daudz vēlāk – virzienam raksturīgo izteiksmes līdzekļu (biomorfas formas, sapņainums, negaidītu priekšmetu, lietu un tēlu kombinācijas vai to pretnostatījumi, laika un telpas saplūšana, tēlu deformācijas vai pārvēršanās citās formās) lietojums pamanāms 70. gadu sākumā. Īpaši spilgti tendence redzama grafikā, kas, salīdzinot ar glezniecību un tēlniecību, no padomju varas puses tika ideoloģiski mazāk uzraudzīta. Latvijas mākslā sirreālisms izpaudās galvenokārt formālu izteiksmes līdzekļu pārņemšanā, nevis mērķtiecīgā sekošanā starpkaru perioda sirreālistu manifestētajiem principiem. Izstāde līdz aplūkojama līdz 16. augustam.

14. februārī Ventspils Livonijas ordeņa pilī notiks viduslaiku lasījumi par tēmu “Svētie un grēcīgie”, kuros piedalīsies vēsturnieks Armands Vijups, dabas zinātnieks un liturģijas vēstures pētnieks Andris Amoliņš, teologs Andris Priede un filozofs Ilmārs Šlāpins. Pils ātrijā notiks arī  viduslaiku sadzīves būšanas - varēs mērīt bruņas, iepazīties ar vairoga darināšanas gaitu un uzspēlēt īstas viduslaiku galda spēles.  Andra Amoliņa tēma ir "Ventspils misāles fragments – senākais mūzikas pieraksts Latvijas teritorijā", par kuru vairāk uzzinām sarunā ar Orestu Silabriedi. Kas ir Ventspils misāle, par kuras muzikālo daļu runāsiet? Tās īstenībā ir tikai divas pergamenta lapas. Tajās bija iesiets Ventspils rātes dokumentu krājums, tāda kā zemesgrāmata. Piešūti klāt bija, kā mēs tagad teiktu, pašvaldības saistošie noteikumi - 16. gadsimts, 17. gadsimta sākums. Tajā laikā jau bija iespiestās grāmatas, tāpēc bija izveidojusies pergamenta makulatūra - lapas no grāmatām, kuras vairs netika lietotas, izmantoja kā iesienamo materiālu. Izrādās, tā ir bijusi diezgan plaši sastopama parādība Eiropā. Tagad ir pat vesela zinātnes nozare, kas pēta šādi saglābtus pergamentus. Tātad tas ir nevis barbariski, bet ekonomiski? Tas bija ekonomiski, jā. Tāds aprakstīts pergaments, sevišķi, ja tur vēl bija notis virsū, arī dekoratīvi izskatās, ja tas ir ārējais vāks. Divas šādas lapas bija, un Pēteris Vaickovskis man to attēlus atsūtīja. Uzreiz varēja pateikt - jā, tās ir divas secīgas lapas no viduslaiku misāles. Tad arī tapa projekts. Paldies Valsts kultūrkapitāla fondam, kas pētniecībai atvēlēja zināmus līdzekļus. Kaut kas par to tika izpētīts, un radās secinājums, sēžot ar lupu un ultravioletās gaismas lampu pie tām lapām, jo tās bija daudz cietušas, nosmērētas, ar pelējumu un bojātas, ka tās, visticamāk, ir no misāles, kas bijusi vācu ordeņa liturģiskā grāmata. Ventspils ir vācu ordeņa pils uz visu Kurzemi, Kurzemes bīskapija bija inkorporēta vācu ordenī, tā kā viņi šo liturģiju tur lietoja. Ar lielu intrigu varētu jautāt, vai šī misāle būtu vecāka par Rīgas misāli, ko Guntars Prānis ar kolēģiem plaši prezentēja? Profesors, vēsturnieks Andris Levāns ir mēģinājis datēt. Viņam iznāk, ka šīs lapas pēc, es pieņemu, rakstības stila, varētu drīzāk būt 14. gadsimts. Salīdzinot ar vēl virkni dokumentu, kas ir kaut kādā veidā datēti, tas tā varētu būt. Par Rīgas misāli tad laikam ir vecāka. Plašāk - audioierakstā.

Lielais skaits suņu sakostu cilvēku, kas vēršas slimnīcās, novārdzināti dzīvnieki, kas tiek atrasti dzīvokļos vai sētās, nelegālas audzētavas – ar to regulāri saskaras dažādi dienesti. Vai Latvijas sabiedrībā ir pārāk daudz bezatbildīgu cilvēku, varbūt tiem, kas vēlas turēt dzīvniekus jānosaka stingrākas prasības? Šogad jau stājas spēkā izmaiņas Dzīvnieku aizsardzības likumā, bet vai ar to būs pietiekami? Krustpunktā diskutē Latvijas Veterinārārstu biedrības priekšsēdētājs Ilmārs Dūrītis, Valsts policijas Administratīvās izmeklēšanas vadības biroja priekšniece Mārīte Ziemele, Pārtikas un veterinārā dienesta Veterināro objektu uzraudzības daļas vadītāja Mairita Riekstiņa un organizācijas "Dzīvnieku draugs" vadītāja Solvita Vība.

To kick off Caravan Of Garbage in 2026 we've decided to celebrate the release of Star Wars' 49th anniversary. We're talking the original movie as it was first shown in May of 1977 with none of the Special Edition tweaks or even the addition of the title A New Hope which was added four years later. We're looking at the miracle of the movie that started it all, George Lucas' vision brought to life with the music of John Williams, special effects by ILM and the relatively unknown trio of Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill.

Itālijas dienvidiem ir īpaša vēsture, problēmas un paradumi, taču aiz Eboli, šķiet, pat Kristus nav ieskatījies… Karlo Levi romāns "Kristus apstājās pie Eboli" ir teksts, ko Ilmārs Zvirgzds ļoti gribējis tulkot, un tagad tas arī izdarīts, publicēts izdevniecībā „Aminori”. Autors Karlo Levi fašistu režīma laikā tika izsūtīts uz nomaļu ciematu, kur valda gan nabadzība, gan slimības, gan māņticība un gadsimtiem iesakņojušies aizspriedumi. Kaut arī izsūtītais gribētu savā trimdā netraucēti gleznot, ciematnieki ātri vien uzzina, ka viņš ir ārsts, tāpēc viņam nākas palīdzēt arī bez nepieciešamajiem medikamentiem. Vieta, kur viņu neviens netraucē, ir kapsēta. Karlo Levi (1902-1975) bija ārsts, rakstnieks, gleznotājs un antifašists, viens no 20. gadsimta nozīmīgākajiem Itālijas kultūras un politiskās domas pārstāvjiem, bet romānā "Kristus apstājās pie Eboli” (1945) Karlo Levi ir izcils vērotājs. Būs arī mazliet smieklīgi, bet tikai mazliet. Pēc romāna motīviem uzņemta arī Frančesko Rosi filma.  Raidījumu atbalsta:

"Imigrantu pilsēta" ir Latvijā dzimušā Kanādas rakstnieka, kinorežisora un scenārista Dāvida Bezmozga stāstu krājums. Kaut arī vairākos stāstos rodas sajūta, ka viņš stāsta par sevi, tā tomēr gluži nav. Tā nav tikai ebreja sajūta Toronto, tā var justies jebkurš jebkurā pilsētā. Titulstāstā "Imigrantu pilsēta" ir šādas rindas: "„Pēcāk piezvanīju sievai, kas dzimusi Amerikā un uzaugusi bezrūpīgā Kalifornijas izšķērdībā. Noskrāpēt mašīnas un nozaudēt naudas makus viņas ģimenei bija gluži vai vaļasprieks. Es, savukārt, biju imigrantu bērns…" Bezmozga stāstos ir arī jautājumu uzdošana par saviem vecvecākiem, uz kuriem gan neviens īsti nevēlas atbildēt. Vēl kāda Bezmozga stāstu īpatnība - pabeigt stāstus ar nelielu dialogu, kas izmaina visa stāsta jēgu. Dāvids Bemozgis pagājušajā gadā ieguvis Latvijas pilsonību, jo viņa vectēvs dzimis pirmskara Latvijas Republikā. Pašlaik Bezmozgis māca filmu scenāriju rakstīšanu Hambera koledžā Toronto. Dāvida Bezmozga "Imigrantu pilsētu" no angļu valodas tulkojusi Anete Ivsiņa, izdevis "Aminori". Radio mazajā lasītavā par "Imigrantu pilsētu" stāsta redaktors Ilmārs Šlāpins. Raidījumu atbalsta:  

Viņa ieroči vienmēr bijuši divi - ģitāra un videokamera. Ilmārs Deksnis zemessarga zvērestu deva pirms 35 gadiem.Bija barikādēs. Sargāja no demolēšanas armijas daļu pie Talsiem. Viņa kamera fiksējusi unikālas liecības par pazemes stāviem zem zemes, robežas sargāšanu un kapteiņa Pētera Čevera mežabrāļu bunkura atrašanu Vandzenes mežos. Un kā gan savādāk, ja plecu pie pleca ar Ilmāru uzticību Latvijai solīja arī viens no Čevera vīriem - savulaik izsūtītais Valdis Dzelzgalvis. Par latvietību un savas zemes sajūtu.

What happens when someone who grew up in the Lucasfilm Games golden era decides that today's AI tools are failing creatives? Mike Levine has spent more than 30 years building at the intersection of games, XR, VFX, and interactive storytelling—and his verdict is clear: the current AI stack is a fragmented, overcomplicated mess that turns directors into prompt engineers.Mike started as a tester at Lucasfilm Games (later LucasArts), working his way into the art department on titles like Sam & Max and The Dig before helping ship live-action Star Wars games such as Rebel Assault and Jedi Knight II. He later built rotoscoping tools used across the VFX industry, collaborated with ILM and Pixar, experimented with mobile AR games for Hasbro and HoloLens, and dipped into crypto gaming—before finally co-founding MovieFlow (now FilmSpark), an AI-native production platform designed so that filmmakers, agencies, and showrunners can move from script to screen without needing a computer science degree.The AI XR news you should know: Apple taps Google Gemini to power Siri, acknowledging that building world-class LLMs in-house makes little financial sense. Meta cuts 10% of Reality Labs, right-sizing its VR bets while pivoting toward wearables. Xreal raises another $100M amid questions about Chinese state influence and data flows. Higgs Field lands $80M at a $1.3B valuation for AI cinematography tools that many filmmakers still find unreliable. Wikipedia signs licensing deals with major AI companies after years of being scraped for free. OpenAI invests $252M in Sam Altman–backed Merge Labs, raising fresh conflict-of-interest questions.Key Moments Timestamps:[00:23:02] From Boston journalist-to-be to accidental hire at Lucasfilm Games[00:26:24] The “test pit” culture at Lucas and how Nintendo experience got Mike in the door[00:28:45] Moving into the art department, learning Photoshop from early legends, and shipping Sam & Max[00:31:15] Live-action Star Wars games: Rebel Assault, Jedi Knight II, and convincing George Lucas[00:34:38] Visiting Pixar with new VFX tools and recognizing the same creative “magic” as LucasArts[00:36:24] Doug Trumbull's influence on Mike's sense of cinematic possibility and immersion[00:43:27] The urinal meeting at Magic Leap and what early spatial computing got right (and wrong)[00:49:00] Why most AI tools are “dark ages” for filmmakers: node graphs, 10+ subscriptions, no story view[00:51:00] Building MovieFlow/FilmSpark: story-first, timeline-based AI production for long-form and vertical shows[00:53:00] The Neighborhood Podcast: a 90-second vertical murder mystery as proof-of-concept for AI-native seriesWhen humans can generate shots, scenes, and even entire episodes in minutes, the bottleneck shifts from production to vision. Mike argues that the winning AI tools will be the ones that let directors see their whole story, maintain continuity, and iterate fast—without ever feeling like they left the edit bay for a dev console. His vertical drama collaboration with Charlie, The Neighborhood Podcast, is an early look at what happens when narrative craft meets AI-native pipelines instead of fighting them.This episode is brought to you by Zapar creators of Mattercraft—the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences.

Josh Safdie's Marty Supreme transports audiences to a vibrant 1950s world of professional ping pong, yet many viewers remain unaware that the film contains over 500 visual effects shots. Eran Dinur, the film's VFX Supervisor, reveals how his team meticulously recreated period accurate crowds in Tokyo and Wembley while keeping the digital work entirely "invisible." He views his role as a bridge between the filmmaker's vision and the technical reality on set, ensuring that every digital element supports the story without drawing attention to itself. For Eran, the ultimate compliment is a viewer who walks out of the theater believing every single frame was captured in camera. The transition into high end visual effects was an unlikely one for Eran, who spent fifteen years as a classical music composer before a random software download steered him toward ILM and eventually the Safdie Brothers. This musical background provides a unique perspective on the rhythm and "choreography" of effects, whether he is timing CG ping pong balls to Timothée Chalamet's performance or animating the surreal openings of Uncut Gems. Beyond the technical craft, he addresses the current industry backlash against CGI and the marketing trends that prioritize "practical only" narratives. He also offers a practical look at the future of AI in cinema, arguing that tools are only as good as the control an artist has over them.

The Salaf were placed at the forefront of this Ummah - not only in time, but in depth of understanding, precision of speech, and clarity of method.  Their knowledge was not scattered, their words were not excessive, and their approach to the religion was guarded from speculation and unnecessary complexity. Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble begins explaining the book Faḍl ʿIlm as-Salaf ʿalā ʿIlm al-Khalaf by Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbal, laying the groundwork for why the Salaf were recognised as more knowledgeable than those who came after them - and by what measures that superiority is understood. This explanation introduces the central themes of the book: the Salaf's distance from Kalām, their comprehensive yet restrained speech, their exacting relationship with the Arabic language, and the standards by which sound knowledge was historically weighed. If you want to understand the foundations of why the Salaf were treated as the benchmark in matters of understanding - this is the book for you.

Welcome back to the digital wasteland, fellow survivors. We kick things off in the FOLLOW UP by marking a year since the LA Fires—hello, PTSD—alongside a 4th Strokiversary and three years of sobriety, all while wondering why America is currently obsessed with shooting its own civilians in the face.In the IN THE NEWS segment, Wired is finally teaching us how to protest safely in the age of surveillance, and the EFF is cheering on the hackers fighting ICE's Nazi-adjacent tracking tactics. Meanwhile, Meta is harvesting your AI chats for targeted ads, Disney is paying $10 million for spying on kids, and Grok has spent the holidays generating nonconsensual child abuse material—a problem Elon Musk won't have to legally reckon with until the Take It Down Act hits in May. Instagram's Adam Mosseri has basically surrendered to the AI "slop", suggesting we fingerprint "real" media because the fake stuff has already won the war.As we continue the descent, OpenAI is launching a ChatGPT Health portal despite their "loser energy" and compute limits, while Character.AI and Google are quietly settling lawsuits for bots that encouraged teen suicide. Polymarket gamblers are learning that "decentralized" juries will fist you over the definition of an "invasion" just as fast as a bank. Uber showed off a new Lucid-based robotaxi, but we're pumping the brakes on the safety hype given that autonomous vehicles are five times more likely to crash at dusk. To wrap up the news, Tim Cook took home $74 million last year, which is a lot of "systematic philanthropy" he could be doing right now instead of just writing checks to his own ego.In MEDIA CANDY, we're suffering through the Stranger Things wrap-up and a John McTiernan holiday marathon, though the real highlight is MTV Rewind's tribute to music videos. We've got Traitors, The Pitt, and even a John Candy doc on the list, while APPS & DOODADS brings us the DJI Osmo 8, Victrola's turntable-vibrating speakers. At least California's DROP tool lets you purge your data from 500 brokers at once.Finally, we go to THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE to hear Dave Bittner rant about holiday tech support, health insurance gouging, and Dave Filoni taking the Star Wars reins. We close out with a look at ILM's 50th, the deepfake porn cesspool formerly known as Twitter, and a birthday toast to the Starman himself, David Bowie.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

In 1975 a man named George Lucas began preparing to make an audacious film that would come to be known as Star Wars. The movie, released in 1977 would go on to blow the minds and capture the hearts of countless people all over the world. The movie showed them things they'd never imagined they'd see, space battles, laser swords, a battle-station the size of a moon destroying a planet, and a guy in a suit with asthma.  The problem was, back in 75 no company existed to create the effects George needed to see his dream become reality...so he created one. Industrial Light & Magic was born. The crew that initially created the visual effects were a rag tag team of nerds, outcasts, and people with hobbies other's saw as ridiculous. Together they literally made magic happen, and it didn't end there. For the last 50 years ILM has been making the impossible possible by creating some of the most memorable moments in cinematic history. ILM has put you on the edge of your seat, they've put your jaw on the floor, and they've taken your breath away more times than you know. It's time to tell their story, the Historically High way. Punch it Chewie. Support the show

In our final episode for the year we are joined by Official IndyCast correspondent Mitch Hallock, Ron Phelps has a lost Delta update and chats with Willie Scott, Chris A is back with IJ in the UK looking at the Temple of Peril and lots more!

In this episode we discuss the "Supergirl" Teaser Trailer, Tom King's vision for "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow", stunning ILM concept art from James Gunn's "Superman", your favorite Superman version of the red trunks, and much more.

In this episode of The Filmumentaries Podcast, I'm joined by Laurent Hopman and Renaud Roche, the writer and artist behind the acclaimed graphic novel Lucas Wars, which tells the behind-the-scenes story of the making of Star Wars from a deeply personal, human perspective. Laurent shares his background as an entertainment journalist and how years of research, interviews, books and documentaries fed into the script. Renaud talks about coming from a traditional animation and storyboarding background, studying at Gobelins in Paris, and how cinematic visual language shaped the way he approached the book's artwork. We discuss:Why the emotional journey of George Lucas became the heart of the storyHow the pair condensed vast amounts of historical research into a tightly structured graphic novelThe challenge of visually dramatising meetings, offices and creative conflictThe relationship between Lucas and Spielberg, and how it shapes both volume one and the upcoming sequelThe meaning behind the iconic twin suns coverVisiting Skywalker Ranch and Lucasfilm after the book's releaseBalancing historical accuracy with storytellingWhy Lucas Wars connected with readers beyond the core Star Wars fandomWe also talk about the upcoming second volume, which covers The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark, and how expanding into Spielberg's world adds a new layer to the story.

In this special 18th anniversary episode of the IndyCast I speak with ILM legend Stuart Ziff, the IndyCast team catch up for our birthday roundtable and Chris A and Keith Voss talk Indiana Jones Steelbooks in IJ in the UK. 

In this episode we discuss James Gunn's new "Man of Tomorrow" storyboard photo, Superman's Critics Choice shortlist nominations, ILM's VFX secrets revealed, the new "Art and Making of the Film" book, HMV's exclusive 4K Steelbook, Black Friday deals on "Beyond The Cape," Zack Snyder's rare Henry Cavill photo, "Saving Superman" documentary award win, the most expensive comic ever sold discovery, vintage Atari pinball restoration, your favorite Superman toy vehicles, and much more.

In his heartfelt Urdu address to the students of Madrassa Jamia Noor Chittagong, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman shared timeless advice drawn from his own journey of learning and spiritual refinement. Mufti Abdur-Rahman centered his message on service—urging students to use their ‘Ilm to uplift their communities after graduation. He encouraged them not only to join existing efforts but to seek out the overlooked areas and the gaps where meaningful work is needed. It is easy, he reminded them, to follow what everyone else is already doing, but true benefit comes from identifying unmet needs and making sincere effort where others have not yet stepped forward. Through humility, awareness, and service, students can become a source of real guidance and positive change.

As Star Wars was being developed back in the mid-70s, the maverick special effects crew at ILM were pioneering new filmmaking technologies in often unconventional ways. In the early days, machinist Stuart Ziff found himself thrust into the action on day one. In the years that followed, Stuart used his skills in a variety of ways at ILM including working on Return of the Jedi creature costumes like Admiral Ackbar, Nein Nunb and Ree Yees, and on many projects from Dragonslayer to Ghostbusters to Jurassic Park. This week on RFR, Stuart joins us In The Cantina to share fascinating stories about working on the Star Wars Original Trilogy and beyond. Plus, our review of Star Wars Visions season 3 and Jimmy Mac had the opportunity to see a Star Wars Holiday Special legend perform live in Chicago. Listen to find out who it was!

What was it like to be inside Softimage during the Microsoft acquisition? How did Bill Gates' "big pivot" to the internet change everything overnight? Industry veteran David Morin joins Chris to share his fascinating origin story, from programming with punch cards and an 8-year art detour to working with ILM on Jurassic Park and navigating the seismic shifts at Softimage, Microsoft, Avid, and Autodesk. Today, David leads the Academy Software Foundation (ASWF), and he details its crucial mission: providing a permanent, secure home for the industry's most vital open-source software. He discusses the importance of the foundation's "stamp of approval," the massive recent addition of ACES, and how open source works with commercial tools to democratize filmmaking, enabling independent, Oscar-winning animated films like Float to be created with tools like Blender.

Have you ever wondered how people manage to train as a coach while juggling a full-time job, family, and everything else life throws their way? In this episode, we explore one of the most common questions we hear: How can I train as a coach when I already work full time? We know from experience that most people who come to train with us are balancing busy lives, full-time jobs, caring responsibilities, and personal commitments. And yet, many find that their coaching qualification becomes the highlight of their week, a time to step into a space that's entirely for them. We talk about the practicalities, mindset, and support systems that make this possible. From flexible formats and payment options to honest conversations with employers, we share the approaches that have helped hundreds of learners succeed in training while working full time. We discuss the range of formats available, including evening, morning, weekend, and self-guided options, and how learners find creative ways to integrate their studies into their lives. Whether it's fitting in lessons during lunch breaks, listening to content while walking the dog, or negotiating time off work, there are countless routes to make it work. Beyond logistics, we explore the mindset that makes the biggest difference. Training to be a coach isn't only a professional investment, it's a personal one. The moment you shift from asking "Am I ready?" to "How can I make this work?", everything changes. We share personal stories from our own coaching journeys, from completing qualifications with young children to navigating demanding roles, and the lessons that shaped how we now support others through this process. We also talk about the value of employer sponsorship and how organisations increasingly recognise coaching as a way to develop culture, leadership and connection within teams. Many of our learners find that their organisations not only support them financially but also benefit from the ripple effects of their growth. By the end of this episode, you'll come away with practical tools, encouragement and the reassurance that training to be a coach while working full time isn't only possible, it could be one of the most transformative decisions you ever make.   Timestamps: 00:01 – Why most trainee coaches balance learning with full-time work 00:57 – How life commitments coexist with coaching study 02:21 – Flexible learning formats that fit around your schedule 03:51 – Managing missed sessions and staying on track 04:17 – Payment options and accessibility 05:17 – Choosing the format that fits your energy and lifestyle 06:34 – Employer support and building a business case for funding 09:24 – The mindset shift that helps you commit and thrive 10:52 – Making coaching a personal priority 12:20 – Understanding the true time commitment 13:15 – Practising through triads and structured peer learning 14:44 – Why investing in coaching changes everything 15:37 – Finding time by changing perspective and routine 16:30 – Adapting your learning style for flexibility 17:00 – How to make your environment support your goal 18:51 – Role modelling lifelong learning for others 19:17 – Turning intention into reality and taking the next step   Key Lessons Learned: It's entirely possible to train as a coach while working full time with the right mindset and structure. Flexibility in format and timing means coaching qualifications can fit around real life. Shifting your question from "Is it the right time?" to "How can I make it work?" changes everything. Employer sponsorship can create win–win outcome, for your growth and your organisation's culture. Treating your coaching training as an act of self-investment fuels motivation and resilience. Clear time planning and communication at home and work are essential for success. Every learner's journey is unique, there's no single "perfect" way to do it. Training as a coach while working builds powerful habits of reflection and self-leadership. The return on investment goes far beyond career progression, it transforms how you think, feel and connect. Starting now often becomes the most impactful decision for your future self.   Keywords: train as a coach while working full time, coaching qualification, coaching career development, flexible coaching training, online coaching courses UK, emotional coaching, mindset for success, accredited coaching programmes, coaching while employed, professional coach training,   Links & Resources: Take our Coaching Course Quiz – mycoachingcourse.com Explore Accredited Coaching Qualifications – igcompany.com Book a call – igcompany.com/ILM-call

In this episode we replay our interview with Drew Struzan in honor of the legendary artist's passing, we have more trivia, an epic review of Young Indiana Jones and the Hollywood Follies plus a look back at the inaugural Crusader Con and lots more!

Chris has gone big with his next pick, Van Helsing, Universal's flashy attempt to revive their classic monsters for a modern blockbuster audience. Directed by Stephen Sommers, hot off the success of The Mummy films, the project was designed as both a gothic action spectacle and a potential launchpad for a wider franchise. With a hefty budget of around $160 million, the film spared no expense on lavish sets, elaborate costumes, and state-of-the-art visual effects to bring together Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, werewolves, and more in a single monster-mash universe. Universal saw Van Helsing as a tentpole production that could recapture the energy of their golden age monsters.The production itself was an enormous undertaking, with filming spanning locations such as Prague, Paris, and a host of detailed soundstages built to recreate grand gothic landscapes. ILM and other VFX houses were tasked with delivering cutting-edge digital effects, while Hugh Jackman, in the title role, underwent intense training to perform many of his own stunts. Despite all the ambition and money thrown at it, Van Helsing was met with mixed reviews upon release — critics praised the spectacle but criticised its overstuffed narrative and heavy reliance on CGI. Still, it's a fascinating example of early-2000s Hollywood excess, where studios swung for the fences trying to build franchises before “shared universes” became the norm.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a time when monsters walk the earth… one man hunts them all. Hugh Jackman is Van Helsing — the ultimate warrior against evil. Armed with gadgets, grit, and a grim sense of duty, he'll face Dracula, werewolves, Frankenstein's monster, and a horde of nightmares that refuse to stay dead. With danger around every corner and darkness closing in, the battle between man and monster is about to erupt in a gothic showdown like no other. This summer… evil has met its match.Fun FactsThe enormous set for Dracula's castle was one of the largest ever constructed at Prague's Barrandov Studios, showcasing Universal's investment in the film's gothic style.Director Stephen Sommers insisted on practical stunts wherever possible, leading to Hugh Jackman doing many of his own wirework sequences.The vampire brides' flying scenes were achieved with a mix of motion capture and practical harness work, which was notoriously difficult for the actresses to perform.The film's werewolf transformations were a blend of prosthetics and CGI, considered cutting-edge at the time, but often criticised for looking dated only a few years later.Dracula's three brides were modelled after classic vampire lore, but with a modern twist — Sommers wanted them to feel like “supermodels crossed with banshees.”The production team used more than 1,500 visual effects shots, making it one of the most VFX-heavy films of 2004.Kevin J. O'Connor, who played Igor, was a longtime collaborator with Sommers, having appeared in both The Mummy and The Mummy Returns.The iconic horse-drawn carriage chase scene was filmed on massive outdoor sets in the Czech Republic, with many practical explosions added to heighten the chaos.Universal Pictures released a tie-in video game for Van Helsing on PlayStation 2 and Xbox, voiced by Hugh Jackman.The film's attempt to revive Universal's monster legacy would later inspire the failed “Dark Universe” reboot attempt with The Mummy (2017).⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
