european stories usually depict dragons as fierce , lizard - like creatures that often breathe fire and spend their time pillaging and kidnapping beautiful maidens . famous dragon stories such as the tale of saint george and the dragon are now thought of as myths , but they may have been rooted in truth , describing real events and possibly real fire breathing dragons . the following are a few of the many european dragon legends :

st george shoots the dragon raised the greatest expectations , being announced as a ( nation ) state project of utmost importance , a stunning regional coproduction ( serbia - republic srpska with additional shooting in bulgaria ) and with a budget ranging somewhere between two and five million euros provided by two governments of former yugoslavia—the largest sum ever given for one film in serbia . furthermore , it is the first film about world war i—an otherwise neglected period of national history but with mythical and hypertrophied emotional feelings . it comes 45 years after the inaugural and so far unique film the march on the drina ( marš na drinu ) . this 1964 film , made with huge financial support from france , as part of the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of world war i , instantly achieved cult status and is believed to be the best film in the popular oeuvre of živorad mitrović . this world war i film , st george shoots the dragon is based on the so - named play of dušan kovačević ( 1984 ) . the excellent stage versions , directed by ljubomir draškić and egon savin ( both in 1986 ) , although very successful , were controversial and stirred much political debate amidst the country’s disintegration and raising nationalism of the late 1980s and 1990s .

“st . george shoots the dragon” is set in 1914 in a village in serbia on the bank of the river sava , the natural border with the mighty austro - hungarian empire . the population of the village is divided between two radically opposed factions – the able - bodied potential army recruits and the invalid veterans from the previous two balkan wars . there is bitter animosity between the two groups . soon , at the start of the first world war , the healthy population is mobilized . the invalids left behind in the village try to take advantage of the soldiers’ wives and sisters . news about this reaches the serbian soldiers in the trenches a few days before the expected enemy attack . to prevent a mutiny , the serbian high command decides to take the invalids to the front line and thus deal with “the inconvenience” . these events are the backdrop for an ill - fated love triangle between the village gendarme george ( lazar ristovski ) , his wife katarina ( natasa janjic ) and the young war cripple gavrilo ( milutin milosevic ) who once had a love affair with katarina before he went to war and lost his arm in battle , and with the arm partly also his lust for life . even though katarina in the meantime married george , she still has affection for gavrilo , which is a source of friction between them two .

the film is well shot and acted . it is hard to think of a foreign actor who commands screen attention like lazar ristovski ( who could be likened to liam niesem ) . st george shoots the dragon is violent and rough ; however , this is fitting since it takes place in the countryside of a war - torn nation . a few gimmicks take away from the film , such as a scene with gavrilo princip crossing the border with the main character on his way to assassinate archduke ferdinand . nevertheless , one consistently amazing piece is the score , which is beautifully composed by aleksandar sasa habic . it supports the film through every twist and turn and compliments the imagery onscreen perfectly . article written by michael fusco read more dinner and movie reviews at : urltoken

castlevania bloodlines plays with the story of the original dracula novel , stating that quincy morris had a son , john morris , and that the family was related to the belmonts . the castlevania series also does this with non - fictional characters . aside from dracula himself , elizabeth bathory ( translated as

so , it’s a bit all over the place . i’ll start with the love triangle . we have a ginger lady who’s in love with a guy called gavrilo . he’s not that gavrilo just another one with the same name . he gets his arm blown off in the first balkan war of 1912 . he goes home and tells his girlfriend she can’t love him anymore because he’s lost his arm . now i’m guessing there’s a bit more to this , something along the lines of his youth being taken from him by the war and that he feels less of a man because there’s a bit of him missing . his colleague george ( not the st george of the title , just another dude called george ) leaves the train directly after gavrilo and gavrilo’s now ex - girlfriend clocks him straight away and they become a thing . in later years georgy boy gets a bit jealous of gavrilo making woopy with his bird . we’ll come back to this later .

dragojević’s superb craftsmanship is again recognizable in the fine metacinematic quality of the text . beside usual intertextuality , postmodern citations , or homage to leone , copola etc . the director skillfully builds a broader notion of saint george . the saint is not only a mythical warrior and protector saint of the slavs and of orthodox christianity and more specifically a key figure of balkan beliefs and atavism , but he is also the epitome of cinema and its spirit . he is omnipresent , his visage imaginatively inscribed everywhere : in the figure of vane playing in the sand , in the shape of the clouds , in the icons carried around illuminated by the lightning and explosions . his name is heard in the sound of falling grenades , in the cry for revenge and in the names of the characters . in an uncanny moment he is recognized in the shape of the stormy clouds while one of the characters ( the clairvoyant gavrilo’s brother and village fool ) concludes that the new “thing”—the cinema must look something like this . through the relation of cinema and saint george we are allowed to draw our own conclusions about dragojević’s appearance in a cameo role of the pilot bombing the village fair , i . e . both slaying and shooting the dragon in the hitchcock - like scene .
my film today is my second trip to serbian cinema ‘st george shoots the dragon’ . and the big question is , was it any good ? the answer is kind of… . it’s hard to say . it’s a bit odd . normally here i’d give you a brief overview of the film , what it’s about , any stand out stars , directors , etc . but for this one i really don’t quite know how to describe it and make it sound in anyway coherent . it has a few of the usual great war film tropes i’ve come to expect : there’s a love triangle , there’s the sad goodbyes to loved ones as troops are mobilised and there’s the fickle fate lottery of life and death in the trenches . but… . . and it’s a big old but… . with this one there’s also a press - ganged invalid army walking slowly across no mans’ land , there’s a brief cameo by powder - keg igniting ( serbian hero ) gavrilo princip and a woman in a smart looking dress going for a wander around no mans’ land looking for her fallen lovers .
the many dangers of fire - breathing show that , if a dragon were to have breathed fire , it would need an intelligently designed system to do so . otherwise , chemicals might mix or ignite at the wrong time , which would be disastrous for the dragon . if god did create a creature that could breathe fire , he would have given it special adaptations to protect it from the intense heat . regardless of whether or not such creatures existed , it remains a fascinating topic that still has much room for research and speculation .

legends of firebreathing dragons have fascinated people for centuries and appear in cultures all over the world throughout history . firebreathing dragons exist in artwork and literature , but is it possible that they also existed in real life ? nearly all cultures have dragon legends , although they had no contact with each other , and the bible even speaks of the fire breathing leviathan . it seems possible that all these legends might have been based on a real creature , specifically a dragon or dinosaur - like creature that had biological mechanisms which allowed it to breathe fire .
john adams : [ ben ] franklin smote the ground and out sprang george washington , fully grown and on his horse . franklin then electrified him with his miraculous lightning rod and the three of them — franklin , washington , and the horse — conducted the whole revolution by themselves . ben franklin : . . . i like it .
the film the guardians of the lost code reveals that the fall of great ancient civilizations and ancient wars of conquest were driven by the dark to eliminate the brijes and obtain the synchronicity . the last instance of this was the conquest of the americas , in which we see hernan cortes under orders of the dark torturing the last aztec emperor cuauhtemoc for the secret of the synchronicity .
the dvds are similarly messed with and full of additional post - special edition tinkering that borders on the completely inconsequential . for instance , the scream that obi - wan kenobi uses to scare away the tusken raiders that attack luke — affectionately known to star wars geeks as the “krayt dragon call” — has been increasingly pitched up and changed from what it had been before .
the year is 1914 . the place is a village in serbia on the bank of the river sava , the natural border with the mighty austro - hungarian empire .

, of having heard and seen all the big truths and concepts better articulated elsewhere weakens the tensions of the plot and is not mended by the emotional richness of melodrama , which is spent in vain here . bearing in mind the high expectation and big promises , the film is one of failed expectation and not entirely kept promise . instead of excellent , it is only very good as the dragon is shot and not slain in grand style .

the movie starts with a battle against the turks during the first balkan war in 1912 and ends with the outbreak of world war i in 1914 and the crucial battle of cer , the first allied victory in ww1 . it is largely set in and around a small village by the sava river at serbia ' s border with austria - hungary . the village is divided between able - bodied men that are potential army recruits and the many invalid veterans from the previous balkan wars , and there is bitter animosity between the two groups , which don ' t intermingle much with each other even though they live in the same village . the central theme of the movie is a love triangle between the village gendarme george , his wife katarina and the young war cripple gavrilo who once had a love affair with katarina before he went to war and lost his arm in battle , and with the arm partly also his lust for life . even though katarina in the meantime married george , she still has affection for gavrilo , which is a source of friction between the two .

“kelvin hoffman” tried to get me too . everything about the so - called company he represents is bogus . not sure how the scam works but i’m sure at some point , they ask you to send them money .
jesus and his disciples are going to be portrayed as homosexual in a soon - to - be - released film . see example ( s )
how the scam actually works is tricky , but i know these companies will send fraudulent checks for you to cash to “pay for your travel” . when that check doesn’t clear , that’s where the scam comes into play and i’m not entirely sure what happens — if they ask that you cover the expense , if they steal your bank info , or what — but basically , the gig never materializes and you’re out the cash they were supposedly fronting you .
however , with the film still present on imdb and no statement declaring any inactivity , there wasn’t any reason to believe it wasn’t still going ahead .

i received a screening copy of this film and watched it last night without having any idea what to expect . from start to finish , the film was excellent . the acting was great , especially by lead man zachary green who - according to imdb this is his first acting credit - was flawless in his performance . the screenplay was also spot on . there were several twists and turns - right up until the end - that i never saw coming . the dialogue felt authentic and the characters were likable and memorable - not an easy feat considering they ' re all scam artists . there was also a lot of social commentary on the justice system in america , something that writer ryan priest embeds seamlessly into the story . this film won several awards at a san diego independent film festival and they were all well deserved . i would highly recommend seeing it if you have the chance .
but the rep urged “anyone who thinks they may have been targeted by fraudsters in this way , or may have been a victim of this fraud , ” to still issue a report , enabling the bureau to build up a profile and warn others . the scam has also been brought to the attention of bectu , the u . k . ’s union for film and tv crew , which has issued an alert .

this innovative film , designed exclusively for gay audiences , goes into excruciating detail concerning the erotic career of jesus christ . the ads for the film show the face of the savior ( with a cross glistening in one eye ) while the headline inquires ‘are you curious about his sexual life ? ’ filmmaker ed d . louie satisfies that curiosity by showing us that the son of man was a voracious homosexual . ( after all , why did he spend all that time hanging around with the apostles ? ) the central character of the film is actually a young gay male in contemporary america whose sexual obsession with jesus helps him to understand the “hidden meaning” of the gospels .
huaxia is one of two state - owned distributors in china , part of an oligopoly with china film co . that controls all hollywood films imported into the country . in other words , it’s a major and legitimate business .

the nevada film office does not solicit via email or text message nor do we work in conjunction with other 3rd parties soliciting services . the production database is available online to connect crews and vendors with productions looking to hire them .
this piece about an upcoming “gay jesus film” is one of those examples that demonstrates a good petition never goes away , even when the issue it addresses has long since been settled ( or was never really an issue in the first place ) . the “gay jesus film” petition first hit the fan in 1984 , and by the end of 1985 more than a million christians had written protest letters in an attempt to have the non - existent movie it referenced banned .
largely derided among viewers for aussie lazenby ' s wooden performance in the wake of sean connery ' s retirement , the film has since been reappraised for its mod - leanings , new wave - esque aesthetics , and that tragically affecting ending .

alongside the british consulate , action fraud , the u . k . ’s fraud reporting center , has been told about the master and the emails from zhao . speaking to thr , a representative for the national fraud intelligence bureau said that the geography of the scam was out of its jurisdiction , so it hadn’t been passed on to the police force for further investigation .
this isn’t a new scam — it’s been going around for at least six months . the anonymous production assistant mentioned it a few months ago , but the scammers haven’t stopped . it breaks my heart because their target is the kind of person who reads this blog : a hard worker with nothing but a dream and the desire to just get their one chance . and it’s disgusting .
production runners are the foot soldiers of a film or television production team , performing small but important tasks in the office , around the set and on location . their duties may involve anything from office administration to crowd control , and from public relations to cleaning up locations . production runners are usually employed on a freelance basis , are not very well paid , and their hours are long and irregular . however , the work is usually extremely varied and provides a good entry level role into the film industry .
in variations of the scam , the proposed rate is something obscene — $ 400 or $ 500 per day , plus travel expenses . once you reach a certain level , then yes , you can make that kind of money — but let’s be real , this is not a realistic rate for a production assistant gig . the average rate for a pa ranges from $ 150 - $ 250 .
i’ve been in the industry long enough to feel suspicious about it so i didn’t respond , then i googled his name and lo and behold i have found this site with his name and scams everywhere . decided to post here to add to the good work people are doing here making people aware of this scam artist . the phone number he texted me from is 510 - 254 - 2028 .
whether zhao and her fellow fraudsters find another stagnant film to claim as her own , give it legs and use it to defraud more industry professionals out of their money remains to be seen . in the literature created for the master , they certainly have a template .
also i specialize in landscape and night - sky photography , motion - controlled time - lapse , and creative dslr film - making . i also hold private and group workshops and classes , as i love to teach other people how to achieve their creative photographic vision .
the non - existence of a “gay jesus film” did not stem the ire of those who heard about it . blasphemy — even the mere hint of it — is enough to mobilize good christian soldiers everywhere . in 1988 , martin scorsese’s the last temptation of christ reaped massive publicity — and long lines at the box office — after fundamentalist christians picketed theaters . the uproar wasn’t over a gay jesus , merely one who both questioned his fate and who had a dream about a sexual relationship with mary magdalene . the film remains controversial to this day .

wow… that’s wretched… i was recently sent a text by allu aravind from geetha arts ( which is a real film company in india — they’ve done some blockbusters out there — and allu aravind is the owner of the company ) … he had found my profile on staffmeup , and thought i would be great to work on a short film they’re doing in my area ( miami ) … i thought it was a little strange that the owner of this prestigious film company would hit me up , but i didn’t want to take the chance and miss an opportunity . i sent him my resumes and availability to his email ( the thing is that i noticed the email didn’t match the website’s contact page’s email listing , nor the email on wikipedia . . i thought to give it a shot anyway since certain projects create extra email addresses for certain departments . . then i got this email today :
contrary to common belief , the entry for him in the medveds’ book was not a hoax concocted by them . however , the minor , low - budget film was so obscure even after its release that it’s hard to imagine it could have triggered a massive outpouring of petitions to halt its production .
jennie granger , of hmrc , said : “this was an audacious attempt to defraud hmrc and was motivated by the pure greed of dishonest and wealthy individuals . the majority of those involved in this fraud had no interest in the film industry , or regard for the impact of their criminality on honest taxpayers .
a similar case inspired the 2003 film “ blind shaft , ” a chinese drama about two men who kill fellow miners for their compensation . in what seems to be an endless loop of life imitating art imitating life , some officials have said that the movie became an instruction manual for the recent killings .
when pitchford queried as to why they wanted her rather than the big - budget film - tested colleagues she had worked with on the projects zhao referred to , she was told they were looking for someone hoping to make the jump to designer . “i was hungry for that next step , ” pitchford says .
cichon’s had previously worked in the makeup departments for kingsmen : the secret service and tarzan , specifically involving hair punching , adding real hair to prosthetics . while she did have one designer credit , on the relatively low - budget jack the ripper horror film razors , the master would have been a step up .
corpus christi is undoubtedly the “play that went on for a while but never stopped” referred to in the current petition , but there are still no plans to make a movie out of it . the 2010 release corpus christi : playing with redemption is often mistakenly cited as a film version of the play corpus christi , but it is not ; it’s a documentary about the controversy surrounding one particular troupe’s production of the play , not a movie version of the play itself . likewise , the 2006 dvd release entitled corpus christi is simply a documentary about the historical figure of jesus , not a film version of the similarly titled play .
we really feel we need some assistance at this time that’s why we need someone who can work with us hand in hand throughout the production period . we are presently working on a short film which i’m directing the production aspect , although work hasn’t commenced and we should start working on the filming in 2weeks time .
the novel ' s 1969 film adaptation saw bond ( george lazenby ) driving off to settle down with tracy ( diana rigg ) , only to have her die in a hail of bullets from foe blofeld ( telly savalas ) , as louis armstrong ' s brutally ironic we have all the time in the world plays .
this is how it works : the production coordinator or travel coordinator books all flights and hotels for crew . you’ll then receive an e - mail with your itinerary , flight details , and transportation information . you’ll either be given per diem on the ground as cash , or you invoice for it after the fact . most importantly and unlike this scam says , you’ll never be told how much your flight or hotel cost , but sometimes you can get reward points if you have an account .
penned by robert wade and neal purvis – the screenwriters on all of craig ' s bond films to date , from casino royale to spectre – the film is set to open with a newly retired bond in
wedded bliss
with dr madeleine swann ( lea seydoux ) , his love interest at the end of spectre .
“some viewers saw the film ‘blind shaft’ and found a way to get rich , ” the township government that oversees shisun village said in a notice posted outside the village committee office . “the culprits showed no compassion at all for life , and in particular kin and friends who were mentally impaired became assets used to make money . ”
the chain letter is a plea to protest “in the strongest possible language” the making of a movie in which jesus christ could be depicted as a swinging homosexual . both this office and the associated press have chased down every possible clue and cannot find a shred of truth in the story that such a film was ever in production .

t’s hard to muster much sympathy for the victims of the elaborate fraud detailed in this intriguing film . the backdrop is the market for fine wines , a world populated by cash - flashing playboys who think nothing of dropping tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars on a bottle of rare vintage wine . into this scene came a young man called
i responded to the text and sent them an email before realizing this was a scam . now i get 10 to 20 spam text messages every day from rotating phone numbers . i can’t block them because the phone number changes and my iphone can’t block a text based on random content patterns . i don’t know how to get them to stop because it happens at 3 to 4 am and i need my phone because it’s my alarm . i am very frustrated because today i have two interviews but was woken up so much last night .
“the culture of saving face and honor rides above so much else , and perhaps it’s this why some of the high - profile people who were attached to this film had their names on it for so long and didn’t consider removing them , ” says jonathan weissler , a u . k . producer who has made three films in hong kong and one in china .
we have concluded that the “jesus movie” rumor originated in 1977 when a suburban chicago publication , modern people news , reported that certain interests in europe were planning such a film and requested that readers express their opinion of the purported project . the result was the chain - letter protest , which , for some unknown reason , has been revived and is again sweeping the world .

pitchford says she knows of two others who were duped . martin says she’s heard of 20 artists who went to jakarta , most from the u . k . , but some also from continental europe . and the template is the same each time : all female , all relatively young and all with credentials in the makeup department , but looking for that key break as a designer on a major film .
this is the worst and most clever part of the scam . the scammer will impersonate a real production company — good clean fun , llc was the alleged company in the example . ( and yes , they are a real company . ) the scammer will then purchase a domain name very similar to the real production company domain , maybe missing one letter so you will hopefully not notice — and send out the email . as is the case in the example , the domain was something like “ @ urltoken ” — while the real production company’s web address is actually urltoken . did you realize there’s one l missing ?

in january 1985 ann landers published a letter from the attorney general’s office of illinois which tried to set the record straight . by then it was modern film news ( not modern people news ) who supposedly had offices in illinois , which is how that state got dragged into this issue ) . people were exhorted to write to attorney general william j . scott . . . a man who had last held that office four years earlier :
unless it’s a student film or some unscrupulous producer with zero concern for doing the project properly and is stealing all the cash anyway , no one hires pas with the expectation that they will run cameras , lighting , and sound . those are positions filled by highly skilled and experienced people . those are the jobs you’re aiming for when you begin as a production assistant , but you don’t start out by touching the most expensive equipment on one of your first days .
there is plenty of wisdom offered on the practice and ethics of journalism which requires a separate write - up altogether . what i still can’t get over is noor’s compromised editor telling her , that she should have taken the victim to the doctor instead of recording his testimony . he blames her for the victim’s death instead of questioning the law and order machinery . and to top it off , is the painstakingly put together monologue—mumbai you’re killing me—so indiscriminately thrust in the film , that it stirs absolutely nothing within .
i received this very same message . they sent me a check for for $ 2600 , told me to deposit it , withdraw $ 2100 in cash and to deposit it into a bank of america account so that the travel agent can use the funds to set up travel arrangements . the other $ 500 is to be used as my per diem . i asked why didn’t they just send the money to the travel agent directly and their response went something to the tune of , “you’ll be handling travel arrangements for execs on the next project and we want you to learn the ropes . ” whenever i hear cash this check , and give us the difference i immediately think nigerian scam . i’ll just retain the funds until this weekend and see what happens . i’m not about to just deposit cash into an account .
during the course of the cinamour scheme – which the indictment alleges ran from early 2004 through may 2009 – the defendants collected approximately $ 15 million for from mexico with love from about 450 victim - investors . the movie cost about $ 5 million to produce and generated approximately $ 550 , 000 in its theatrical release in october 2009 . the defendants raised about $ 2 . 7 million for the red water movie from about 100 victim - investors , but essentially none of the money was used to produce the film , which was never made .

christopher walsh atkins and christina slater claimed to have spent £5 . 7m on starsuckers and mercedes the movie to take advantage of tax breaks
jennie granger , of hmrc , said the fraud was motivated by the ‘pure greed of dishonest and wealthy individuals’ . photograph : peter macdiarmid / getty images
christopher walsh atkins , 40 , and christina slater , 37 , submitted vastly inflated invoices to take advantage of tax breaks on two independent uk projects .
the pair falsely claimed to have spent £5 . 7m and made significant losses on starsuckers , a documentary condemning the press , and mercedes the movie , hmrc said . this apparently allowed wealthy investors to falsely claim around £40 , 000 tax relief for every £20 , 000 invested .
chris atkins , of camden , north london , was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment and slater , of leamington spa , was jailed for four years at southwark crown court on friday .
they were also banned from being a company official for 12 years after previously being convicted of conspiracy to cheat the public revenue , theft and fraud .
“after painstaking and complex work from our investigators , and a series of long trials , hmrc has dismantled the fraudulent operation . the long sentences handed down send a powerful message to those tempted to deceive hmrc . nobody is beyond our reach . ”
accountant terence potter , 56 , a former partner with ernst and young , devised and promoted the schemes , produced false documents and submitted fraudulent tax avoidance schemes . he was jailed for eight years in december last year for four counts of conspiracy to cheat the public revenue .
he was assisted by independent financial adviser neil williams - denton , 42 , who also promoted the schemes to high - earning investment bankers . he was jailed for six years for two charges of conspiracy to cheat the public revenue .
three investment bankers , phillip jenkins , 51 , james hyde , 43 , and hamish maclellan 43 , were each jailed for four years and six months in september last year for conspiracy to cheat the public revenue .
how up - and - coming makeup artists in the u . k . were lured to indonesia to “interview” for a position on a big - budget chinese epic — only to find out the project didn’t exist .
will inevitably find their profiles get a sudden spike in a manner they probably haven’t experienced before .
yen’s first post - star wars project is therefore likely to attract a fair amount of interest .
thankfully , the master ( or tai see in chinese ) looks like just the right vehicle ; an action thriller with an array of global locations and a plot that sees yen in the starring role as a martial arts school owner forced to train in new combat techniques to take on a vengeance - seeking gun shop owner and his gang of thugs .
the six - week shoot for the master , again , according to documents obtained by thr , is due to kick off in november , starting in the indonesian capital of jakarta before moving to hong kong , bangkok and eventually beijing , where it wraps dec . 12 , just days before rogue one ’s box - office domination begins and yen’s star is set to go stratospheric .
