Oh leuchte mir den Weg Petunia das ultimative Modell zum Strom sparen für Gartenparties wären wohl leuchtende Pflanzen. Ohne Farbwechsel und Special-Effects gibt es das jetzt tatsächlich. In den USA kommen 2024 die ersten selbstleuchtenden Petunien auf den Markt. Zurück zu den Wurzeln Lange gab es eine Pause bei Assassins Creed. Nun ist mit Mirage ein Teil erschienen, der kürzer, kleiner und kompakter daherkommt. Ob das auch 2023 noch funktioniert und was taugt, das hat Matze sich angesehen. Aus für Discs Wir kennen das ja schon von Konsolen, jetzt greift das Aus für Discs wohl weiter um sich. Best Buy in den USA wird ab 2024 auf den Verkauf von DVD und Blu-Rays verzichten. You`re my Barbie Girl Der Kinoerfolg des Jahres 2023, nun auch in den Heimkinos. Margot Robbie verkörpert die Realverfilmung des Spielzeugs Barbie von Mattel derart spaßig, visuell beeindruckend, wenn auch schrill, dass man den Film gesehen haben muss. Barbenheimer Die beiden Blockbuster 2023 waren ohne Frage Oppenheimer und Barbie. Viele Zuschauer hatten sich beide im Double Feature reingezogen. Deswegen gibt es „Barbenheimer„. Wir sind gespannt was im Dezember da auf uns zukommt. Irgendwas passiert immer Das neue Juse Ju Album ist kritisch, ein wenig düster, macht aber eine Menge Spaß, wenn man sich auf die hintergründigen Texte einlassen kann. Netflix News Preissteigerung Es sieht so aus, als würde die nächste Preiserhöhung bei Netflix auf uns zurollen. Diesmal trifft es die Abonnenten im höchsten Preismodell. In den USA steigt das 4k Abo von 19,99$ auf 22,99$ und damit um 3$ bzw. 15%. In Europa würde das eine Steigerung von 17,99€ auf 20,99€ entsprechen. Wird es doch langsam mal Zeit zu kündigen? Macht Netflix Shops auf? Es schaut so aus, als würde Netflix mit dem Gedanken spielen, eigene Shops bzw. Netflix-Häuser zu eröffnen. Dort soll es ein Restaurant geben, Merchandise, Live-Events zu Serien und einen Hindernis-Parcous á la Squid Game. Würdet ihr dahingehen? Rettung des Internets Deep Render, ein StartUp aus UK, hat sich zum Ziel gesetzt den Bandbreitenkollaps wegen Videostreaming im Internet mittels eine KI Lösung zu bekämpfen. Mit einer Reduktion der Datenmenge um bis zu 80% würden Netflix und Co, den Internetanbietern, aber auch sich selbst eine Menge Geld sparen. Wir sind gespannt ob das klappen kann. Neues Leben für alte Kameras Du hast eine alte Kamera aber keinen Bock auf entwickeln von Filmen? Dann gibt es jetzt vielleicht genau das richtige für dich. Das I'm Back Film wird wie ein Film eingelegt und macht damit analoge Kameras digital. Der Sensor ist im Micro 4/3-Format (Sony IMX269). Die Auflösung liegt I'm Back zufolge bei 20 Megapixeln. Die Finanzierung geht über Kickstarter und wer sich jetzt ins Risiko begibt spart über 200€. Trotzdem werden noch fast 700€ fällig.

Die Mafia… Mit Tokyo Vice bringt HBO Max bzw. Starzplay eine wirklich spannende, autobiografische Thrillerserie über das Tokyo der 90er Jahre. Packende Einblicke in eine fremde Kultur und der Welt der Yakuza. Ein heißer Geheimtipp als Serie! Kameras und Autos Ein Thema für die Münchner Hörer. In der Leica Galerie München gibt es noch bis zum 20. August die Ausstellung „IGNITION„. Diese vereint verschiedene Fotografen die sich dem Thema Auto gewidmet haben. Retro neu aufgelegt Zu Super Nintendo Zeiten ist Matze der Klassiker Pocky & Rocky entgangen, das Modul ist nun auch einige Euros teuer. Nun gibt es aber ein Remake mit dem Namen Reshrined und das macht Laune, auch wenn es Matze nicht ganz so umgehauen hat wie die Kritiker. Und das beste Smartphone ist… … das Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. Zumindest bei Stiftung Warentest. Mit Note 1,7 konnte es im neuen Testverfahren alle Mitbewerber hinter sich lassen. Auch das iPhone 13 Pro, das zwar eigentlich die Note 1,6 hat, aber noch nach dem alten Prüfverfahren (weniger Fokus auf Wasserfestigkeit und Stürze). Einen Ehrenplatz gab es für das Honor 50 mit Note 2,0 zum Schnäppchen-Preis von 350€ Mundart Rap The Gaudi is 2 Real, das neue Album von Liquid & Maniac. Wir hatten bereits einen Track, nun gibt es mehr davon. Ein solides Album, der Vorgänger war aber irgendwie mehr der Banger. Retro Burger-King Vor einiger Zeit haben wir berichtet, dass ein laden für Videospiele eingemottet und später wieder gefunden wurde. Diesmal ist es ein Burger King. Ja.. eine komplette Filiale in einem Einkaufszentrum. Diese wurde 2009 in Delaware nach der Schließung einfach mal eingemauert und jetzt wieder entdeckt. Eingestaubt aber eben mit Retro-Mobiliar. Die Dinos, die Dritte Jurassic Park bzw. World ist immer ein Spaß: gute Special Effects, Spannung und tolle Landschaften. Leider ist Teil 3 wegen absurder Story, ein paar peinlichen Momenten und einfach Too Much, nicht mehr so cool, wie die Vorgänger. Twitch News Das Allzeit Hoch auf Twitch wurde geknackt. Der Spanier Ibai Llanos Garatea hatte 3,35 Millionen Zuschauer gleichzeitig in seinem Stream. In Deutschland muss Montana Black dafür das Zepter abgeben. Nach 4 Jahren an der Spitze in den allen oder zumindest den meisten wichtigen Kategorien liegt nun EliasN97 vorne. Wow, ein neuer Streamingdiest… Mit AMC+ startet wieder eine neuer Streamingdienst und das Anfang 2023. Serien wie The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad und Mad Men stammen von AMC, was dann in Deutschland wegen der Rechtsfrage wirklich startet, werden wir sehen. Netflix ist nicht nicht in Dänemark Es gab ein wenig Aufruhr. Die Welt berichtete (oder zumindest konnte man es so verstehen), dass Netflix in Dänemark auf ein mal dicht macht. Das ist nicht der Fall. Es sind lediglich die Produktionen eingestellt und das Vertragsrechtliche Gründe.

Dan and Tom interview Steve Begg, who led the visual effects for CASINO ROYALE, SKYFALL, SPECTRE, KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE, & more! Listen to how his magic transformed these movies! For those who don't know the name Steve Begg, you have seen his work, usually without knowing that visual effects were used in a scene.  When his work is done well, it becomes invisible.  You have heard our interview with Special Effects wizard Chris Corbould (YouTube or our website) on his work with the James Bond series.  Special Effects and Visual Effects combine to give us true movie magic. In this interview we have two main goals: ·       -    Tell Steve's story ·       -    Learn how some of his amazing effects were done Some of the Steve's scenes we discuss include: ·        - CASINO ROYALE's palazzo collapse into the Venice canal ·         - What the special effects team had to do in that collapse ·         - When James Bond first meets Vesper Lynd on the train in CASINO ROYALE ·        - SPECTRE's mouse ·         - CASINO ROYALE's hangar scene ·         - CASINO ROYALE's parkour chase ·         - SKYFALL's helicopter and DB5 destruction ·         - SKYFALL's opening sequence ·         - Steve's use of miniatures ·         - In addition, we find out the answer to the question: How do they replace a person's face? ·         - And, of course, much more! So, do you want to find out how the sausage is made? Trust us, you'll learn something in this episode. Tell us what you think about our decoding of visual effects with Steve Begg Prior to this interview, had you heard how these effects were done?  Did you know that the mouse was CG, not real? How much of the additional effects Steve Begg's team added to these movies did you think was real, or practical, not a visual effect? Let us know your thoughts, ideas for future episodes, and what you think of this episode.

This week we talk with our friend, writer/director Ryan Kruger about his newest Messed Up Horror Movie Street Trash. Ryan discusses how he keeps so many projects moving at once, taking steps everyday to get another wild vision to the screen. We also discuss what the filmmaking journey as the movies get bigger. How did he deal with bigger cast, more locations and a LOT more special effects. Ryan is a hustler supreme and has a lot of wisdom to impart, so pop this pod on and try not to let it melt your brain.  Youtube: https://youtu.be/7QpjjNLuxh4 Join the Misfit Parade: https://www.misfitparade.com/ Support the show on the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/messedupmoviespod Watch our newest short film Sugar Tits Now! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sz7leFqqo4g Follow Ryan's Journey: https://www.instagram.com/aryankrugerthing/ https://ryankruger.tv/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAab4bCe0rNhsf5F4e_rHA_kTe3JxDwSIqm1FvfZoKz_VOGCybzApFdSxJ9o_aem_Lv00BFrLhP66GrC9qSaJWQ
