Story 1 (00:01:02): In an interview with Variety, Director James Cameron expressed his belief that movies should be seen in theaters and not through streaming services, stating "enough with the streaming already! I’m tired of sitting on my ass." He also addressed the success of Avatar 2, which grossed over $1.7 billion, and the upcoming Avatar 3, 4 and 5 films. However, many critics argue that Cameron is out of touch with the current state of technology and how people consume media in 2023, with the convenience and increased quality of home viewing options.
Story 2 (00:17:13): Discover the incredible story behind the visual effects in the film "Everything Everywhere All at Once." A small team of self-taught artists, led by Zak Stoltz, took on the challenge of creating the VFX for the film using only online tutorials and programs like After Effects. The team's unique approach to VFX, breaking industry standards and prioritizing personal and handmade techniques, resulted in a one-of-a-kind final product. Learn about the team's struggles and successes and how they believe that going off the beaten path can lead to greater creativity and imagination in the film industry.
Story 3 (00:31:03): Protests against the presidency of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in Brazil's capital, Brasília, turned violent as thousands of demonstrators stormed government buildings and vandalized iconic works of art. Former leader Jair Bolsonaro has falsely claimed that Lula had stolen the election and refused to concede, leading to the destruction of priceless pieces of art by Brazilian modernists such as Emiliano Di Cavalcanti and Oscar Niemeyer. The Brazilian government has condemned the violence and destruction, and have stated that the value of the destroyed art is incalculable due to the historical significance it represents.
