ZNAK SAGITE — više od fantastike — edicija, časopis, knjižara...

Sasvi slučajno sam se danas setio bloodninje i ponovo čitao one njegove sajberseks logove. Bože, ponovo sam plakao od smeha. Ko ne zna o čemu se radi, nek navali.

Pa ovo je urnebesno.

Francis Lawrence ("I Am Legend," "Constantine") is tipped to direct a film adaptation of the comic "In the Small" for Weed Road Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures reports Pajiba.

Michael Hague's graphic novel concerns a strange explosion that leaves all humans six inches tall, yet nothing else is affected. Those who survive the transition are forced to create a new social order and adjust in a world where man is no longer at the top of the food chain.

As they attempt to find out what happened, humanity is faced with a new and existential threat. Laura Harrington penned the adaptation.

Earlier this month Lawrence replaced Guy Ritchie as the director on the WW2 comic adaptation "Sgt. Rock" and Akiva Goldsman is set to produce both projects. Sarah Schechter is also slated to produce 'Small'.

Both are just two of several projects Lawrence has in development and could be his next picture. Others include Michael Chabon's "Snow and Seven" and an adaptation of "Water for Elephants".

Joshua Oppenheimer and Thomas Dean Donnelly ("Sahara," "A Sound of Thunder," "Dead of Night") are set to pen the film adaptation of Sony's hit video game series "Uncharted" reports Latino Review

Likely to be based on the first game in the series, 'Drake's Fortune', the story follows treasure hunter Nate Drake who believes he has learned the whereabouts of El Dorado, the fabled South American golden city, from a cursed golden statue.

The search becomes competitive when a rival hunter joins the fray, then is ratcheted up several notches when creatures -- actually mutated descendants of Spaniards and Nazis -- begin attacking those hoping to learn the treasure's true secrets.

The first game was the most acclaimed 'launch title' for the Playstation 3. Its sequel, 'Among Thieves', was released recently and is likely to sit at the top of many 'Games of the Year' lists next month.

Kyle Ward was previously announced as the feature's writer, but the deal apparently didn't happen.

Baš sam u poslednjem blogpostu (ovde) pisao o Uncharted 2 i hvalio narativni element igre:

QuoteNaughty Dog u jednoj stvari svakako nosi šnjur a to je pripovedanje. Uncharted igre su izdigle element priče, karakterizacije i dijaloških razmena na viši nivo od gotovo bilo čega što mi pada na pamet u okviru medija videoigara i u tom smislu, ove igre su više Indiana Jones od samih Indiana Jones igara. Hoću reći, teško mi je da zamislim da neko ko je odrastao na pustolovnoj literaturi (proznoj i grafičkoj), Carlu Mayju ili Carlu Barksu, Spielbergu ili Burtu Lancasteru, da ne pominjem pustolovne filmove četrdesetih godina, neće u igranju Uncharted 2 pronaći duboko zadovoljstvo, diveći se pažljivo pripovedanoj priči (kroz kinematike ali i kroz gejmplej), sjajno isprofilisanim likovima, vrhunskoj glasovnoj glumi, sigurno odmerenom humoru... Jeste, pričamo o naglašeno eskapističkom zadovoljstvu, što je možda iz nekog ugla i, jelte, greh, ali, dođavola, ovo je u zanatskom smislu jedan od vrhunaca ove godine.

Sad, Uncharted naracija i likovi su toliko dobri da se praktično ne razlikuju od AAA Holivuda, ali to ne garantuje da će i ekranizacija (umm... kinematizacija?) biti jednako dobra. Ima tu MNOGO faktora.

DESOLATION JONES mi je odličan. Jel ima toga još?

DESOLATION JONES mi je odličan. Jel ima toga još?

Avaj... Ellis je počeo da piše drugu sezonu, a Žeželj je to crtao. Mislim, Williams III je raskošniji crtač, ali ja Žeželja baš volim. Plus, zaplet se doticao života i rada Filipa K Dika, ali strip je stigao do druge epizode i prestao da izlazi. Wildstorm je doduše upao u ozbiljne finansijske tesnace, ali mislim da je više problem u Ellisovoj rasutosti pažnje.

Posalji na PM neke linkove za te epizode...

Chitao sam neki intervju sa Elisom gde je rekao da on ima nekoliko nerealizovanih scenarija za Desolation Jonesa, ali da je tu Wildstorm neshto zasrao, a da je on onda morao da nadje neki drugi posao i pochne da pishe neshto drugo, ali da se nada da ce mu se u nekom trenutku vratiti.

Budimo realni, Desolation Jones je varijacija na Hellblazera, tako da ako ne bude mogao da parira pričama, možda je bolje da ostane na ovoj jednoj, ali zato odličnoj...

Vjerovatno svi znaju za ovog tipa ali ja noćas slučajno naletih na ovo:

Reyn vs David Hanlon - Druid II

Reyn vs Mark Cooksey - Ghosts'n Goblins

Reyn vs Peter Clarke - Bubble Bobble

Jeremy Renner ("The Hurt Locker," "S.W.A.T.") tells Empire Magazine that Marvel Studios is after him to appear as the superhero Hawkeye in at least one or two upcoming films from the studio.

"Hawkeye could be interesting. They're going to send me some stuff on it, see what it is, but I think they're pretty awesome, trying to make superhero movies almost plausible and not just some fantasy thing" say Renner about the character, a master archer

Asked which ones he would appear in, Renner says "If I was a betting man, I would bet that Hawkeye would probably show up in Thor, and then be in 'The Avengers' but do I know for sure? I can't say. But I'd love for that to happen. It'd be fun."

He does however admit that nothing's set in stone or on paper as yet - "No offer has been made. I think there's a little ways from that." He's understandably cautious as he has seemingly lost out the lead role in George Miller's "Mad Max: Fury Road" to Tom Hardy.

The actor also shot down rumors he was considered for the role of Captain America. "I don't know if I'd be right for Captain America. I met with the Marvel guys, actually, but we didn't talk about Captain America" he says.

Meanwhile Marvel chief Joe Quesada tells Comic Book Resources that the "Thor" film "redefines what a super hero movie can be. It's not the expected story or settings."

Ryan Reynolds tells MTV News that unlike some other superhero movies, much of the 'Lantern' origin story will be gotten over and done with quickly.

"It is [an origin story] to a certain degree, but it's not a labored origin story, where the movie [truly] begins in the third act... We find out Hal is the guy fairly early on, and the adventure begins" says Reynolds.

Despite the presence of action and major special effects, Reynolds admits much of the film's best moments are "moments where the guy's not in the suit".

Summit Entertainment, fresh off the success of "New Moon," has come onboard a feature version of Top Cow's comicbook "Alibi," with Mandeville toppers David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman producing.

Comicbook, published last year, centers on a well-known socialite whose public presence establishes a perfect alibi for the covert activity of his secret twin brother, a government assassin. Mandeville snapped up rights to the project shortly after Comic-Con (Daily Variety, Aug. 4).

Summit's attached John Hlavin to pen the script. He was recently hired to write the fourth installment of "Underworld" for Screen Gems and is developing his Western screenplay "Gunslinger" at Warner Bros.

Hlavin's also writing "Boston P.D.," a cop procedural produced by Don Cheadle under his Crescendo banner, for NBC. He was previously was a writer and story editor on "The Shield."

Mandeville VP David Manpearl is exec producing "Alibi." Mandeville produced "The Proposal" and "Surrogates" for Disney and is in post on "The Fighter" for Par with Mark Wahlberg, Christian Bale, and Amy Adams.

Top Cow CEO and founder Marc Silvestri is also exec producing along with Top Cow COO & President Matt Hawkins. The comic book "Alibi" was created by Hawkins and Michael Renegar, written by Joshua Hale Fialkov and illustrated by Jeremy Haun.

For Top Cow, the deal's aimed at replicating the success of "Wanted." That Angelina Jolie starrer, an adaptation of another Top Cow title, topped $340 million in worldwide grosses. Top Cow's "Witchblade" title was the basis for a TNT series.

Hlavin's repped by UTA and Benderspink. ICM reps Hawkins and packaged the deal with Mandeville.

Activision Blizzard is generating critical raves and blockbuster sales for "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2," and the success of the videogame is rubbing off on its director Keith Arem.

Arem will make his feature directing bow on "Frost Road," an action thriller that Cary Brokaw ("Closer," "Angels in America") will produce along with Steven L'Heureux.

Project revolves around a young man who awakens from a car accident to discover he is one of few survivors in the aftermath of a mysterious outbreak that's struck a small coast town on the East Coast. Somehow immune to the contagion, he tries to save the remaining survivors as he struggles to prevent the deadly wave from spreading across the planet.

Arem penned the script for the pic, and is also developing the project as a graphic novel with co-creator Brandon Humphreys, with Christopher Shy illustrating.

Brokaw will produce through his Avenue Pictures shingle, while L'Heureux will work through his Solipsist Films, focused on developing pics and TV shows based on comicbooks and graphic novels. Arem will produce through his PCB Prods.

Brokaw most recently produced "The Resident," starring Hilary Swank and Jeffrey Dean Morgan for Hammer Films, which is now in post-production. Company also has a first-look deal with Fox Television Studios.

"Modern Warfare 2" has earned more money than any other videogame during its first week of release, collecting $550 million in worldwide sales during its first five days and $3 billion in sales to date.

As talent director on the game, Arem was responsible for directing, casting and engineering all of the actors for the game, which included 50 Cent, Barry Pepper, Kevin McKidd, Keith David, Billy Murray and Lance Henriksen.

Through PCB, Arem has also done game development for the "Lord of the Rings," "Spider-Man," "Rainbow Six," "Silent Hill," "Prince of Persia," "Guitar Hero," "Ghost Recon" and "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" franchises.

Arem said he was "thrilled to have the opportunity to bring the skills I've honed in the game industry to the big screen" on "Frost Road." "There's an incredible talent pool currently working in the game industry, and I hope that the success of 'Frost Road' will give other creators the chance to show what they can do on a wider canvas."

Meho brate pomagaj, naime dolazi mi u goste jedna cura iz CRO sjutra, a ja pojma nemam gde bi je izveo jer nisam izlazio u grad brdo, pa mi reci dal znas sta ima u petak u gradu, ili bar neki sajt da mi preporucis gde to ima ? Jel radi akademija, koji klubovi jos klubovi su OK ? Sta je sa RED ROOMom ?   

Sine, ni ja ne izlazim baš često, ali verovatno više od tebe, tako da... Ja bih Akademiju zaobišao, mnogo je deprimirajuće (bar meni), nisam bio tamo već par godina i ne nameravam; imaš Brod u 29 novembra i to je više kafić nego klub ali fino mesto, samo ako nije gužva. Tu je i Šipražje u Golsvortijevoj, ali to ti verovatno nije usput, a i malo je klaustrofobično kad se napuni. Inače, ima petak veče koncert Intrudera u centru Grad (ispod zelenjaka, odmah pored Brankovog mosta), to bi moglo biti okej...

Šta nam je s Mehmetom? Ne javlja se od Kurban bajrama. Mora da je otišao na hadžiluk!

QuoteKurban bajram - prvi dan - 27.novembar 2009.g. /10.zul-hidždže 1430.h.g.

Kurban-bajram su dani u kojima muslimani kolju kurbane. Ovim činom potvrđuju vlastitu spremnost na žrtvu u ime Uzvišenog Allaha.
Prvi dan Kurban-bajrama počinje zajedničkim obavljanjem bajram-namaza: "Prvo što ćemo uraditi u ovom danu je da klanjamo bajram-namaz, a zatim ćemo se vratiti kućama i poklati kurbane. Ko tako uradi, postupio je po mome sunnetu."( Buhari )
Propis o klanju kurbana ima utemeljenje u Kur'anu: "Mi smo ti, uistinu, mnogo dobro dali, zato se Gospodaru svome moli i kurban kolji, onaj koji tebe mrzi sigurno će bez pomena ostati." ( El-Kevser, 1-3 ) Poslanik je u hadisu precizirao da "najbolji posao koji čovjek može za vrijeme Kurban-bajrama uraditi, a to je ujedno tada i najdraži posao Allahu, jeste puštanje krvi svome kurbanu. On će mu (kurbanu) pristupiti sa svim svojim znakovima na Sudnjem danu. Zaista, taj posao stigne Allahu prije nego što padne prva kap krvi na zemlju. Pa uljepšajte svoje poslove kurbanom." ( Buhari, Muslim )
Kurbansko meso se dijeli na tri jednaka dijela, od kojih se jedna trećina dijeli siromašnima, druga rodbini i prijateljima, a treća zadržava za vlastite potrebe.
U vrijeme Kurban-bajrama, također, muslimani koji za to imaju mogućnosti obavljaju petu islamsku dužnost hadž. Oni hodočaste Kabu u Mekki.

E fala Miloshe 

Planiram da odem veceras do Red Rooma ako radi, pa onda u Shiprazje , tamo je INDIE vece, e sad jbmliga, ako neko ima jos neku ideju za danas i sjutra neka javi u toku dana, jer sam ja duduk totalni...

Na netu sam naleteo na majicu sa ovim crtežom i odmah sam znao da moram da je podelim sa Sagitinim gejmerima.

Je l' ono moj imenjak Žica na naslovnoj Popboksa?
http://www.popboks.com/vest.php?ID=11821

Jeste, to je on.

Što se tiče mog odsustva sa foruma, bio sam u Macedoniji nedelju dana poslom (ako se poslom nazvati može sedenje na workshopu, slušanje sa pola uveta i ubacivanje neduhovitih duhovitih komentara na svakih par minuta) u vrlo ugodnom odmaralištu Crvena Krsta u Strugi koje ima i funkcionalan vajrles internet, ali kako sam ja dočepao jedini laptop koji je bio na raspolaganju u ofisu minut pre nego što sam krenuo na put, u tom kompjuteru, zbog starosti, nije bilo vajrles kartice. Tako da sam bio oflajn sve vreme i prijalo mi je (Naravno, mogao sam da idem onlajn preko PSP-a, ali previše je to truda za premalo sreće). S druge strane, ohridsko jezero, patke, galebovi i labudovi na njemu bili su dobrodošla zamena za virtuelna prisustva stvarnih ljudi.

A što se tiče gejmerskih majica, evo jedne paradigmatične:

Meni je još uvek omiljena sledeća (već sam je bio stavio na forum Ilustracije):



Još neki favoriti:

All over the Net for the past few hours has been a Movieline report that John Malkovich and Anne Hathaway are being sought to play the villains in Sam Raimi's upcoming fourth "Spider-Man" film.

Strange though is that Malkovich is wanted for The Vulture, an elderly crook who uses a suit to fly through the air on wings that can be used as weapons.

What's extra confusing though is that Hathaway is wanted for the character of Felicia Hardy who will NOT transform into the thief 'Black Cat' but rather a new superpowered figure called the Vulturess. Yep, father/daughter villains.

Finally the report cites that Curt Connors won't be turning into The Lizard as the studio "can't bring themselves to sign off on such an odd-looking enemy".

Of course rampant casting rumors on the project are swirling right now and none of them are confirmed so take all this as pure rumor for now.

Zašto Popboks više ne objavljuje tekstove o stripu? Prethodni je objavljen pre dva i po meseca...
Željno se iščekuje prikaz "Malog princa", mada stižu informacije iz magacina da je ceo tiraž već rasprodat.

Zato što sam ja lenj da ih napišem.

 

Pa prodo si sve i bez Popboksa!!!! Što da se pravimo da popboks ima neke veze?

Pa Popboksa radi... Da se ispostavi kao šatro relevantan portal.  
Mada, možeš i da sačekaš da odem u tvorza, pa da tekst posvetiš meni koji sam uhapšen zbog tog stripa. Stara srpska tradicija hapšenja urednika stripova.

Muslims in Europe: A Report on 11 EU Cities
Overview
Date: December 2009
Source: OSI

The Open Society Institute Muslims in Europe report series constitutes the comparative analysis of data from 11 cities in seven European countries. It points out common trends and offers recommendations at the local, national, and international levels, including to the European Union and to international organizations. While not representative of the situation of all Muslims in these cities, this report does capture a snapshot of the experiences of Muslim communities in select neighborhoods in Amsterdam and Rotterdam, Antwerp, Berlin and Hamburg, Copenhagen, Leicester and Waltham Forest–London, Marseille and Paris, and Stockholm.

This body of work comes in response to major trends with regards to Muslims living in Europe: whether citizens or migrants, native born or newly-arrived, Muslims are a growing and varied population that presents Europe with one of its greatest challenges, namely how to ensure equal rights and opportunities for all in a climate of rapidly expanding diversity.

The following overview report includes:

Beogradski metal sastav NadimaC objavio je album Državni neprijatelj broj kec.

"NadimaC je nastao 2003. u Beogradu, i predstavlja jedan od prvih bendova koji su u regionu pokrenuli novi talas thrasha posle godina zatišja na ovom polju", saopštio je bend.

Svoju muziku opisuju kao kombinaciju speed/thrash/crossover zvuka.

U NadimaCu sviraju: Danilo Trbojević (ex- DaggerSpawn), Marko Pavlović, Dragan Ristić, Stefan Ćorović (ex- Metal slug).

Žiko, hvala za link!!

A ovaj NadimaC me je već Nebojša zadužio da recenziram na Popuboksu.

Taj Popboks postaje najstrašnije metalersko leglo... više se i ne iznenađujem kad vidim prikaze i najave metal nedela. Dokle bre više?

Da citiram Guru Gagija: do kraja, do bola, do jonusa.
