A Quick Review of Star Wars: Force Collector
A quick read: Star Wars: Force Collector by Kevin Shinick. This is a tale of Karr and his journey to uncover the truth of the Jedi. Karr lives in the post-Order 66 world and the Jedi are only known as fake news. But when Karr has the ability to see the past of objects, he goes out to find what really happened to the Jedi and maybe how he could become one… Or you know maybe a Sith, after all, he is also in his angsty teen years. I just wouldn’t be surprised if he listens to My Chemical Romance. And before I get any haters, I am a fan of My Chem…but was more so during my angsty phase.
Ashton Arbib confirms he is no longer on ‘General Hospital’
Its the stuff soap operas are made of someone is pronounced dead, their loved ones mourn only to later have the deceased return to the land of the living. Sadly it can now be confirmed that General Hospital actor Ashton Arbib will not be one of them, (at least not now). A recent tweet from the teen made it crystal clear that Dev Corbin is dead and will not have a miraculous return. GH already has Marcus Taggert who is running around town when he is so posed to be deceased. He will eventually let his loved ones know he is alive and well. This is why it was not a stretch to believe Dev is still with us and in truth he might be.

BEVERLY HILLS—Happy Tuesday and God Bless America, and how’s everybody? Pfizer sent its Covid vaccine to the FDA to be tested for emergency approval as a public debate broke out over who should be the first recipients of the drug. I think the vaccine should be tested first on Congress. If they survive, then the vaccine is safe and if they don’t, then the country is safe

Special effects have become one of the essential parts of film making in Hollywood. Better or worse, CGI is necessary to create the fantasy world or in the science fiction franchise. The visual effects add some crucial factors to storytelling. Some special effects are beautiful to watch, while others are pretty ridiculous.

Steven LeitmanPublished 3 years ago in GeeksTrina McGee reveals racism on the set of Boy Meets World
In April of this year actress Trina McGee revealed that she dealt with racism on the set of Boy Meets World. Her character came to the show long after her castmates had been working together for years. The others had a comradery and perhaps did not want a newcomer to upset the apple cart. Based on their individual backgrounds, perhaps they had not had any direct contact with African Americans. This sounds difficult to believe for the 1990s but it very well may be true. The bottom line is that on screen, in reel time McGee's character, Angela became one of the gang and dated Corey's best friend Shawn. In real-time, however, the actress says she experienced racism and indifference from most of the cast.
Cheryl E PrestonPublished 3 years ago in GeeksA Filmmaker's Guide to: Docudrama
In this chapter of ‘the filmmaker’s guide’ we’re actually going to be learning about literature and film together. I understand that many of you are sitting in university during difficult times and finding it increasingly hard to study and I understand that many of you who are not at university or not planning on it are possibly stuck of what to do, need a break or even need to catch up on learning film before you get to the next level. This guide will be brief but will also contain: new vocabulary, concepts and theories, films to watch and we will be exploring something taboo until now in the ‘filmmaker’s guide’ - academia (abyss opens). Each article will explore a different concept of film, philosophy, literature or bibliography/filmography etc. in order to give you something new to learn each time we see each other. You can use some of the words amongst family and friends to sound clever or you can get back to me (email in bio) and tell me how you’re doing. So, strap in and prepare for the filmmaker’s guide to film studies because it is going to be one wild ride.
Annie KapurPublished 3 years ago in GeeksIt's A Wonderful Life (1946)
In this article, we will be looking at 2019’s book “1001 Movies to See Before You Die” and going through each film in a random order that I have chosen. We will be looking at what constitutes this film to be on the list and whether I think this film deserves to be here at all. I want to make perfectly clear that I won’t be revealing details from this book such as analyses by film reporters who have written about the film in question, so if you want the book itself you’ll have to buy it. But I will be covering the book’s suggestions on which films should be your top priority. I wouldn’t doubt for a second that everyone reading this article has probably watched many of these movies anyway. But we are just here to have a bit of fun. We’re going to not just look at whether it should be on this list but we’re also going to look at why the film has such a legacy at all. Remember, this is the 2019 version of the book and so, films like “Joker” will not be featured in this book and any film that came out in 2020 (and if we get there, in 2021). So strap in and if you have your own suggestions then don’t hesitate to email me using the address in my bio. Let’s get on with it then.
