kovilpatti is a rural village in south tamilnadu . the village is dominated by the upper caste . a poor young girl belonging to the lower caste is gang - raped and later killed by the upper caste men . the girl ? s sister veeralakshmi ( simran ) raises her voice and seeks justice . she goes to the local police station and complaints but they are hand in glove with the village chieftain and his goons . she is further humiliated and this makes her take law into her hands . she becomes a terror to the men in the village , as she kills them mercilessly .
- she was born on 4 april 1976 . - punjabi is her mother tongue . - she was married on 2 dec 2003 and she has got a son adheep . - she is a versatile dancer and can perform bharatanatyam with the same ease as she performs salsa . - she is an award - winning indian actress . - she is was nominated three times for national filmfare award for her performance in vaali , kovilpatti veeralakshmi and kannathil muthamittal . - she has won numerous awards including south filmfare awards , tamil nadu state award , tamil nadu government award , nandi award , andhra state award and many others .
this movie was a good attempt but somewhere the direction and screenplay is not upto the mark , it had potential to be a good thriller . simran who plays veeralakshmi has given a very raw and wonderful performance . her body language and action scenes are superb . she is one fine actress . the film has few songs which are ok . performances from other supporting movies are good .
into the alleged murder of her grandfather and aunt . the duo was burnt to death in their hut recently . veeralakshmi , a brave woman who was battling untouchability in a village , was brutally assaulted and murdered by policemen . later , her story was depicted in a movie that saw simran in the lead . a azhagurajeswari of sattur said that on september 3 , her grandfather , chinna ramachandran , and her aunt jayapradha were set ablaze and at their thatched house near sattur .

ramachandran ( 60 ) , a temporary worker of the tamil nadu water and drainage board , and his daughter jayapradha ( 30 ) , a resident of ammer palyam , were found dead in their house , totally destroyed by fire , with hack injuries all over their bodies . both of them were working as cattle grazers . they were staying in the cow shed , where their bodies were found . local people saw the corpses and alerted the police , who went with sniffer dogs to inspect the scene . but the police claim they could not get any concrete evidence about the incident .
the postmortem report stated that both were killed before the hut was set afire . “the local people did not notice the incident while it happened because the duo stayed 2 km away from the village . the villagers told us that they knew about the incident only the next morning , ” a police official said . though the police have registered a case , they have not arrested anyone . the suspected accused are wealthy persons and belong to a dominant caste . the police officers are alleged to be torturing the complainant and her aunts in the name of an inquiry .
justice r sudhakar , before whom the matter came up for hearing , directed the superintendent of police to consider her representation and file a report by september 21 .

simran makes her debut as an action - heroine in the film , in the style of vijayashanthi and the like . the film has been in the making for the last one year . the film is directed by rajeshwar who had earlier written the story and screenplay for
, the much acclaimed dacoit drama . he has also directed the arjun action film
the film seems to be inspired from shekhar kapoor ? s classic bandit queen and the makers claim that it is true life story of a similar girl in rural tamilnadu ! simran was very excited when she heard the story , and she had given bulk dates during the shoot . she has dubbed in her own voice for the first time , hoping to get an award !

le but des réalisateurs hindi était le mot glamour : simran et shriya devaient être glamour lorsqu ' elles apparaissaient devant la caméra dans leurs 1er film hindi .
or à partir de 2007 shriya devient la sivaji - girl ( où est ce qu ' elle allait on l ' appelait sivaji - girl ) et les réalisateurs hindi commencèrent à la montrer autrement dans les films à venir . ainsi awaarapan , mission istanbul et ek - the power of one sont les 3 autres films hindi de shriya .

i know this comment is a year later than the rest but i’ve only recently watched this film . . no film has had the effect on me like martyrs did , i have watched a siberian film and films like 120 days of sodum and found then nothing compared to martyrs . . the way the film was shot , actually i’m not even goin to try and sound intelligent , the film stick with me… great review 🙂

koo , i know 1 % is a very small number . . but i think the biggest problem on kickstarter is they don´t accept paypal . . i´m from europe and i had problems registering my card on amazon website . . i´m sure there would be more international readers who would pledge on your project ( like me ) . but finally , i´m glad that you made it , i know you would make it because you are the right guy and you deserve it ! thank you for everything you did and all the experience you shared with us , i hope once i´ll have the chance to repay you everything i´ve learnd from you . ( i hope i said that right haha . . . sorry for my english ) wish you the best !
thank you again and again for making this campaign a wonderful success . i ' m going to do my absolute best to make a feature film that makes you proud .
personally , i did not appreciate cars but i did watch it and i did give it a shot .
firstly ; it’s your right as a human being to like cars or not . whatever you think , you’re right . and if i don’t want to watch it because i think it’s boring and i hate nascar , that’s my business and i don’t care what you think .

snyder shot snow steam iron entirely on an iphone — a technique that has been used by directors for years now , like in sean baker’s 2015 sundance breakout tangerine and adam green’s 2011 film the wrong ferrari .
it is unfortunate that you criticize what you have not seen . how can you expect to be taken seriously as a critic if you cannot effectively analyze your material because you refuse to watch it ?
statler : you know , if i didn ' t know better , i ' d say you were reciting some sort of an important plot point .
so what if you consider yourself a serious film lover but don’t want to find life itself defiled ? do you have to watch this movie ? and will you regret it ? i asked five films critics these questions earlier this week .
you know not what your actions would unleash . i do . go now , while i still allow it .
thank you for the great read . i’ll be thinking about your article when i watch the next pixar movie !

both the colony and momentum were released by signature entertainment , a uk distribution company started in 2011 . jon bourdillon , the company’s chief operating officer , says the strategy exists to “give the film the widest possible level of distribution and exposure” .
i think you have kids and smoke too much weed . yes i have thought of the idea a long time ago , you broke it down too much and your first mistake is you decided not to include cars , i dont disagree that it was bad , i think cars kinda hindered your theory , although it does follow the same patterns of pixar steps as you described . i was a child from which you described i learned much from the pixar movies and i live my life as they painted my picture , i can still use pixar movies in everyday encounters , look i’m picaso !
i’m rarely posting a reply but you forced me to do it haha kudos for you for putting cute pictures after you showed up the gruesome image of anna…how considerate of you . great review ! thumb’s up !
yes , i was a fool . . . to think that you were ready . thor , odinson , you have betrayed the express command of your king . through your arrogance and stupidity you have opened these realms to the horror and desolation of war . you are unworthy of these realms , you are unworthy of these titles , you are unworthy . . . of the loved ones you have betrayed . i take from you your power , by my father , and his father before . i , odin allfather , cast you out !

seriously ? i wasted 20 minutes of my life on this ? and now i’m wasting 20 more posting a comment ? i don’t know why i’m so compelled , as i’ve never commented on a blog before in my life , but here goes . i cannot help myself ! … . can you say overanalyze ?
on # 5 above , does kickstarter allow you to message your backers ? i thought at one point you said you do not get access to their emails until after the campaign .
now — despite my enthusiasm for the film , i can definitely say that it is not one to recommend . in terms of impact the film has , this probably sits just below a serbian film . it’s a really , really good movie , but it’s a full - on sucker punch of a film . it kind of leaves you reeling , because a movie has rarely been so cruel .
second , on a personal note , i always wondered why cars never really twinkled for me and now i think i know . so , thank you . it was a wonderful film and i’ve seen it numerous times ( thanks to some younger family members ) but it doesn’t fit on the same plate with toy story , wall e , the incredibles , monsters inc . i realize there are people out there who really resonated with cars and that’s totally cool but i never liked it as much and was frankly disappointed when i saw because i was expecting , well , a pixar film . probably doesn’t make any sense to people who liked it , but i feel like i’m not alone here .
i can’t say for certain , but show me another sundance 2011 film that’s currently in the black and isn’t spending money to do so . motherfuck what a hack journo writes about shit his feeble melon can’t process : i made sure my investors got their money back in less than a year ( nine months , to be exact ) . that makes you more attractive to future investors – the ones you’ll need more money from , as the last film you intend to make ( the one for which you’ll be seeking financing soon ) is a period - piece set in the world of hockey that spans three decades .

oh for pete’s sake roll clip and enjoy . i bet you lose sleep over disney cartoons as well .
don’t worry : i’ve got you covered there , too . i always considered film critic amy taubin a friend . i was pretty sure she considered me a friend as well , as she called me after the village voice let her go , asking if i could help her get a book deal . over the years , amy hasn’t always liked the films i made , but at least she never made up horse - shit in her reviews . however , in a sundance 2011 piece she filed with film comment , she lost my respect by being as “careless and heavy - handed” at her job ( in print ) as she insisted i was at my job ( in film ) by suggesting nobody would’ve bought red state .
the film begins with a young girl running away from an industrial complex , panicked and bloodied . and by young i mean about 12 years old , if not less . this is 57 seconds into the film , and we already know we’re in an edgier film than most . she runs away , limping and screaming . this is lucie .
on the one hand , you speak to the greatness of every pixar film . on the other hand , you steadfastly deny yourself the experience of another masterpiece , namely cars .
i absolutely love meditating ! i never imagined it would work before i tried it… i wish all humans would try it . when i started i just felt a bit calmer and was amazed that this kind of spirit stayed with me the whole time or at least a few days . now i can’t imagine living without it
film reviews : opening this week ( aug . 12 - 16 , 2013 )
“even if you haven’t seen every film they’ve made ( i refuse to watch cars or its preposterous sequel ) , there is a consistency and quality to pixar’s productions that is hard to deny .
sundance film forward is a touring program which introduces a new generation of audiences to the power of story through the exhibition of film and conversations with filmmakers to create greater cultural awareness .
now , while the violence is indeed brutal , savage , extreme and intense ( and all the other adjectives i keep repeating in these reviews ) this is also one of the most compelling films i’ve ever seen . you don’t know what’s happening for most of the film , and you’ll find the violence extreme and fucked up , but at the same time , the story will pull you in and make you want to keep watching , incredible as that sounds .

wow ! very interesting article . but i think you missed the most important point about pixar .

i do think he has a point , but i don’t think the messages are “hidden” .

i wouldn ' t even know where to start with telling you the things i ' ve walked into . i think that ' s why the paparazzi love me . they know i ' m going to end up on my backside looking silly .
but if you’re a fan of fucked up movies , certainly . if you’re the kind of person who boasts about how strong your stomach is and how no horror movie even makes you flinch , yes – this will take you down a peg . if you enjoy provocative and interesting cinema , have no problem reading subtitles , and are prepared to be shocked by a film that does it well , certainly yes .
i ' m embarrassed to admit this , but i consciously tried to lose my english accent .
waldorf : well , i hope so ; otherwise i just bored the audience half to death .
: well if i wasn ' t your first , at least i can be your last .
since that day , i refuse to over analyze stories since you can spin them anyway you want , and everything that comes out of doing so is right and wrong at the same time .
i don’t understand all of this talk of “toys coming to life not being real” . my toys are alive and i talk to them everyday when i come home from work . they get cold when i leave them outside and they miss me when i’m gone . don’t yours ?
very cool man . congrats again , i was happy to donate and i can ' t wait to see the end product . also , i was very curious about this side of things - thank you for sharing your metrics . any thoughts on kickstarter vs indiegogo , and why you would use each ? i ' ve personally gotten $ 4500 for a film from kickstarter , but i was thinking that ' s a low enough amount that i could ' ve just went the indiegogo route and not faced the dreaded
what if i don ' t get it all in time
factor .

i think you completely forgot to analyze a bug’s life . like cars , there are no humans here .
in all of the reviews i have seen of this film , no - one , not one has understood why mademoiselle removes her wig , head - scarf and make - up at the very end of the film before saying , “keep doubting” and blowing her brains out .
your thesis is well - reasoned , and you had me until you claimed pixar is influencing the policy of a generation . you’re grossly overstating the importance of the message , and incorrectly implying it’s pixar’s invention .
as for the rest of the comments . thank you thank you thank you . even those who are convinced i’ve been on some major mind - altering substances and / or am of sub - par intelligence have given me a mighty chuckle .
i got in trouble with the police last year and i was quite silly about what happened . famous or not , though , everyone does silly things . i am sorry , but i just have to get on with my life . i ' m dealing with it .
i ' d never do a fully nude shoot , though . i was shot from my chest up and everyone speaks about it like i was naked . i really wasn ' t . i ' d never do a naked shoot - that ' s just not me .
scorsese transforms this innocent tale into an ardent love letter to the cinema and a moving plea for film preservation .

i got some really cool things from the sixth sense and notting hill , but lawn dogs was the best , as i just raided my character ' s bedroom . i got a brilliant slugger baseball bat that i hang on to and adore .

i think it’s very amusing that everyone has to write in such a scholarly tone . you should all realize that everyone does this because they need self - validation of their own intelligence . ( the smarter you sound , the smarter you feel . ) in addition , you try to sound smarter than the person you disagree with , in attempt to discredit their argument . clearly i am no exception to this rule , and in acknowledging this , i am attempting to exempt myself from this trend , as i try to sound smarter than you all , which further proves my point .
as a promo , camilla had sung it at the grammy awards , prior to the film .
also it is wise to make sure you think through an idea that you would post to a wide audience such as this , as what you did not think of ( like aesop’s fables ) will be noticed and you will be roundly beaten with it .
this has been a lightning bolt of inspiration . i ' m glad i could be a part of it . it ' s funny . i stumbled on your website and started following it not even realizing i met you in philly at diy days . thanks for this . and good luck with the feature .
all joking aside , this is not a new narrative . pixar is simply extremely successful at following a somewhat formulaic plot line . others have done it recently , quickly : happy feet in 2006 , ai in 2001 , and i am number four in 2011 ( lolz ) .
i love pixar . i don’t think the message is so thought out about ai and non human , although there is a general respect for all beings . i see the message as about the little guy rising to the challenge and overcoming . and i also love cars .
muppet telethon , no , i don ' t know why i ' m here . . .
do you mind if i quote a few of your articles as long as i provide credit and sources back to your blog ? my blog site is in the exact same niche as yours and my visitors would certainly benefit from some of the information you provide here .
here ' s what i learned from running a $ 125 , 000 kickstarter campaign for my feature film man - child , which became the most funded project in kickstarter ' s narrative film category - - for just one day , it turns out .
the show was syndicated absolutely everywhere and made me famous all over the world . i had all kinds of outrageous scenes , and people still think i ' m that crazy , bitchy person , and they treat you like it . when you become that famous , people lose their minds when they see you . the thing is , though , you don ' t change , but everyone around you does . i still take the subway and clean my own stuff . i do my own laundry . when i left the oc there were a lot of mixed emotions . it was an extreme four years of my life , so it was kind of bittersweet .
as for all of you “haters , ” you throw ad hominems at the author as another way to make you sound smart . and many of you , take the opportunity to call out the “haters” so you can validate the compassionate side of your being . you think that defending the author against cheap attacks makes you look like a good person , but you really have no vested interest in the author . after all , the internet is merely a conglomerate of individual , anonymous minds . my suggestion is to stop seeking for validation on the internet . you don’t have to sound smart , you don’t have to sound moral , and you don’t have to sound wise . if it gives you confidence , then fine , just know that that confidence was always in you , and you don’t need blogging and posting to bring it out . but then again , sometimes its good just to hear yourself speak , no ? however , i think the author would prefer if we stayed on point in their discussion…
' i took my top off for cosmopolitan ( magazine ) . i ' d never to a fully nude shoot , though . i was shot from my chest up and everyone speaks about it like i was naked , ' says mischa barton
this was an interesting read . i agree with most of it , but i’m self - entitled and believe my opinion also matters . it doesn’t ; but that’s just how i feel .

i love how you exclude and “refuse to watch” cars for no other reason than it blows your silly theories to smithereens . cars is a fantastic film with a ton of heart , a nice message and tons of reverence for the car and travel culture that’s disappearing in this country .
well , i can’t get doc hollywood out of my head when i watch cars , but i still love it despite that . maybe not new , but still unique .
the funny part is that every story is worth telling if told the right way . there’s always something in there that can make the story . the trick is to find it . you can’t beat a great writer . i’ve seen some writers take the most mundane topic and make it extraordinary . i aspire to be one of those people , and i think i’m getting closer . in any case , i’m much better than i used to be .

and i thought hollywood movies only had zionist , jewish and israeli propaganda . pixar has simply found a formula for successful animated movies and you just wrote a whole article on bs . some relative of yours gave you this writing job on this site ?
when you go off making testable claims like the two i mentioned . though , you have to have evidence to back them up . otherwise people will say it’s a conspiracy theory — and they’ll be right .
i wonder how these rules will apply , if at all , to their film for next year , “brave . ” that one looks to be about humans and involve a little magic .

so i did read the entire , long winded , and sometimes repetitive “article” . while i can see a mild pattern emerge when i cross my eyes and beat my head off the wall , and slip in to a schizophrenic episode… . . .
the film , which premiered to tepid reviews at last year’s toronto film festival , is the latest in an increasingly long line that don’t rely on box office . in fact , the poor showing is of little consequence .
when i lived in new york i tried really hard to ditch the british accent to fit in . i went to classes and everything . i ended up putting on this terrible ' nu yawk ' accent and hid behind that for a while . now i don ' t try to hide it so much , but my accent slips all over the place . it ' s a mess - i don ' t sound like i ' m from anywhere any more .
suffice it to say : if you can assemble a team of trusted and competent people to help you with your project , do it . i built this website myself and have gotten very efficient at executing a variety of tasks back - to - back , so i felt i could manage the campaign better by working full - time ( or double full - time ) myself than i could if i was managing others . but this is a fairly unique situation , and not a task i ' ll be putting myself through again . if you already have a cast and crew assembled , they can certainly help promote your campaign . strength in numbers .
wow ! you ' re not kidding when you say you really pay attention to the metrics . this is amazingly helpful to someone like me , who one day soon will probably undertake this same effort .
you raised the money cos you ' re a genius ! and hugely talented and respected in the industry . will read this when my eyes work better . thanks koo and good luck with the feature .
any good business person tries to limit their costs to maximize their profits . if i accompany the film at all public exhibitions , then i can charge what any movie theater would consider a premium , because i’m giving the audience real 3d – me , answering their questions right there in the third dimension – as opposed to that murky bullshit they’re overcharged for this summer . i refuse to buy my opening with millions of dollars when i can accompany the film into the world and return more profits to my investors than fellow sundance 2011 alumnus cedar rapids can return to searchlight ( this is not me slagging on cedar rapids – the fox searchlight flick that followed us in the eccles that night at sundance ; like every flick miguel arteta directs , cedar rapids is worth your time ) .
in the trailers , statler and waldorf asking if the muppets film will be in 3d is a reference to muppet vision 3 d .
remember the case of the white teacher who told the black student to sit down and said , “sit down , nigga . ” and then the teacher is chastised by the administration and of course there is social disruption . he said , “i didn’t say ‘sit down , nigger , ’ i said ‘sit down , nigga , ’ and that’s what i hear the students saying . ” i’m thinking , first , you are an adult , white teacher . secondly , do you imitate everything that you see and hear others doing or saying ? at some level , there has to be some self - critique and critical awareness and sensitivity to difference . just because someone else is doing it doesn’t mean that i do it even if and when i surely can .

the article would have been ok if the author had simply said , “this is what i got from pixar movies . ” great , that’s a personal matter , i’m glad you got something positive from your experience , i didn’t see any of that when i watched the movies , but your analysis is your own .
i ' m the only girl in la with her own collection of ' allo ' allo and blackadder dvds . that ' s what i love most about britain - the humour and the pubs . i ' m a real pub girl . i ' m a bit of a tomboy - most of my friends are guys . i ' m into all my handbags , but i can also drink a pint . i like to glam up , but i also love to rough it when the time ' s right . i ' m never happier than when sleeping out in a camp with the lads . i adore road trips . i ' m very spontaneous , and there ' s nothing cooler than just getting on the road and driving somewhere . i did it the other week - my friend and i just started travelling south not knowing where we were going . we drove through oklahoma , nebraska , wherever . i ' m thinking of buying a winnebago truck next year .
but the cruelty of the film is a bit like the torturers themselves ; it’s not malicious . it’s not a film trying to shock you and repulse you , like any number of torture - porn films of the current ilk , an obvious case being hostel or a more obvious example in the malignant a serbian film . its cruelty is naturally derived from the intensity of the story ; toning the violence down would make the mystery in the story less effective . it’s full on , but it’s contextual , and never exploitative .

i found myself getting sucked into this post because i wanted to find the hidden message of pixar . i did not , perhaps the meaning is hidden somewhere in the body of text .
the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
thank you so much . i really hate mildly pointing out that something is problematic only to have everyone pile on saying “oh you just hate everything , you joyless pc husk , learn to enjoy life for a change…” but enjoying life ( and lots of stuff ) to the fullest and recognizing that shit is fucked up are not mutually exclusive ; in fact i think they’re mutually dependent .
los angeles — i want movie studios to keep their grubby paws off my money . and i want complete control over how my films are marketed .
i get your message , but by refusing to see cars ( and its sequel ) , you’ve pretty much destroyed the whole point you’re making . also , wall - e is probably the only pixar film that is rooted between human and non - human… . literally as its main theme . the other pixar movies were more about “finding yourself” , “accepting others” , or “accepting yourself for who you are” without “humanity” being anywhere in their focus .
“consumption of film entertainment has become that much more immediate , fans simply can’t and won’t wait like they used to , ” says bourdillon .
the lengthy hold - up sprang from the fact that their little independently made horror flick—shot inconspicuously over the course of one month in columbia , missouri , in mid - 2011—was purchased for distribution by the legendary genre film distributor lionsgate films , the company that released american psycho ( 2000 ) before solidifying its legacy in 2004 by launching the now - iconic saw franchise . now that you ' re next is finally being unveiled theatrically , lionsgate ' s been killing it with the pre - release promotions , bombarding bus stops , subway stations , and highway billboards with the film ' s clever marketing strategy : sell the hell out of those animal masks . such enthusiastic marketing is easy for a major studio when the film in question delivers the goods , and you ' re next does .
the report also claims the aha neglected to investigate animal cruelty that took place on a new zealand farm during the filming of the hobbit : an unexpected journey in 2011 , when 27 animals – including sheep and goats – reportedly perished from dehydration , exhaustion or drowning .

] hey , lana . lana . my name is vadim . i am 21 years old . i ' m sexy beast .
i wouldn’t go as far as the author did , but all the same i enjoyed the ( over ) analysis . the strongest statement i’ll make against it is this : i suspect the author’s cognitive biases got in the way of an otherwise fair observation .
i’m really intrigued by this by not fully satisfied . i’d like to hear someone analyze this stuff through history . for instance :
hah ! thanks will , yes ,
it ' s on
is a classic . actually i quite like the scene between you and wilder . . .

i disagree eddie , you’ve never had a pet ? animals are sentient , i think all living things are sentient ( able to feel ) just because we don’t understand it , it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist . i seriously doubt pixar is doing it on purpose .
if you acknowledge the elements of the media that is problematic , then i don’t think you’re condoning it at all ! if you say “hey , x is a great show but this thing they do on it is not cool” is pretty far from condoning it because you’re engaging with the media critically . i think there’s room for a lot more nuance in conversations about social justice ( and all conversations in fact ) than just x is bad , and y is good .

also , the characters are interestingly crafted – you never know how lucie is going to act as she’s really unpredictable , anna’s an interesting character and even when she does silly things , you don’t judge her for them , and mademoiselle is , despite being the big bad of the film , not a character you hate or boo and hiss at . when she kills herself , it’s not a moment to cheer at .
good post . i learn something totally new and challenging on websites i stumbleupon everyday . it will always be exciting to read articles from other authors and practice something from other sites .

as a filmmaker who’s proud of his now - in - profit art , i don’t care how the audience initially sees my flick anymore : if vod is the easiest way to get my specialized , non - commercial , non - studio flick to them , i’m happy to pipe it directly into their homes and laptops . i’m a grown - up and i accept that i can’t have everything i want in life all at once ; sometimes , as my wife has taught me , you’ve gotta settle for the fat guy .
hell , if you go far enough back you can find elements of it in shakespeare , arthurian legends , the mabinogion , even the old testament .
congrads again and thanks for sharing so much information and knowledge . although i am a photographer i have been following your blog for a while now and can say that your recent success has been timely inspiration as i am currently struggling and on my way to living out of a suitcase . . .
the oscar - winning film was awarded the “no animals were harmed” stamp , despite an aha official having witnessed the incident .
none of this is a new revelation by pixar . just look at the teaching of lord buddha or tao philosophy and you will see that people had the right ideas about our place in nature and perspective long ago . i only hope that this mindfulness will return and whatever medium is used to promote it i am all for . unfortunaly after reading others responses i see that humanity has a long way to go . please broaden your horizons through education and exploration and for gods sakes have an open mind or you will never see the world around you .

good post and good insights ! i always enjoy watching movies more when i make a game out of trying to decipher the messages they are “programming” into me .
i don’t support transhumanism or equal rights for animals and the like . i am in fact a hard - line biblical creationist with all of the concurrent prejudices -
you can’t have your cake and it eat too . if you are trying to develop a unified theme throughout pixar movies , you don’t just get to toss out cars because it doesn’t fit your theory . i imagine many aspects of cars , and other pixar movies , have as much to do with the technology of movie making as they do with the story or its themes . you can’t shunt that to the side .
lakeith stanfield and his sorry to bother you director boots riley discuss the stress of filming sex scenes .
elements of the muppets take manhattan are referenced , including kermit and piggy ' s wedding photo , but in this film they were never actually married .
most of the audience was sent there by a nearby company , which bought the tickets and gave employees half a day off to watch the film .
to those who think i’m paranoid – no , i don’t think pixar is doing this deliberately . i think they are capitalizing ( both $ $ and story - wise ) on latent beliefs that people possess but struggle to express .
for the fair majority of people , i’d say no . brilliant though it is , it’s the kind of movie that will leave you saddened , and you’ll feel despair at what poor anna is put through , instead of seeing it as part of a compelling mystery . it’s the kind of movie that will make you wonder why people make movies like this , if you’re not already steeled for it .
i am proud to have been in one of your first film projects ( ' it ' s on ' - - still pull out the vhs and watch it from time to time . . . . ) , proud to have supported this project , and can ' t wait to see the result . good luck to you and keep rockin .
your planner helps you schedule your entire sff experience . it shows sessions you ' ve saved , purchased or added to your cart in a helpful timeline .
and now , because i can’t resist , i have to bring up the one point i did disagree with . i feel that “cars” also fits into this description of personalization . like the stage that describes “the incredibles , ” it is not the level of skill or how a car is built that determines how “human” or personable a car is , but , as the author points out , “the choices you make and the way you treat others determines how human you really are . ” not to mention the level of success in life , and the level of happiness that “person” has .
the acting between the two lead ladies are brilliant , barton in particular adapts to the russian accent flawlessly , had i not been aware previously that she was an american i would have thought she was russian , and i can honestly say that i ' ve never seen a film like this before . the plot is loose at times , highly unbelievable for one and poorly constructed for two . the script is probably what i am most ashamed of , in places it ' s dull , not needed and slightly childish . after waiting since 2008 for this to come out i cannot say it was worth it . a delay of 5 years warrants a better end product i ' m afraid . not to mention the dvd i was sent refused to play audio until i spent the good part of an hour tampering with the settings .
it ' s definitely going in the right direction but i ' m finding it harder than i expected , even with all the knowledge i had prior to it launching . it very much is a full time job , although i currently have a full time job so fitting it around everything is a trick i ' m yet to fully master .
