A silly take with some AI imagery on the original radio series Flash Gordon which is now in public domain. #FlashGordon #vintageradio Starting April 22, 1935, and again in May 2022 the strip was adapted into The Amazing Interplanetary Adventures of Flash Gordon, a 26-episode weekly radio serial.

Vianelli as Captain Thune, Bob Clendenin as Dr. Zarkov, Stephanie Stearns Dulli as the Witch Queen Azora, Pete Lutz as Saul. (Pete Lutz heads the Narada Radio Company) Kurtis Bedford as Vultan and starring David Beeler as the announcer and the Lieutenant .

Safety One plane lands at an accident scene and the teams investigations leave them strangely in the dark. An #adultswim style #comedy Guest stars Steve Tom, Ransford Doherty, Jim Woods, Mark Teich, Jan Braunstein, Betsy Baker, Ben Wang, Jolyon Reese and Adria Tennor --CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (also known as CSI: Las Vegas and also abbreviated as CSI) is an American crime drama television series, which premiered on CBS on October 6, 2000. The show was created by Anthony E. Zuiker and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. It is filmed primarily at Universal Studios in Universal City, California. The series follows Las Vegas criminalists (identified as "Crime Scene Investigators" working for the Las Vegas Police Departement instead of the actual title of "Crime Scene Analysts" and "Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department") The "CSI effect" is a reference to the phenomenon of popular television shows such as the CSI franchise, Law & Order, Silent Witness, Crossing Jordan and Waking the Dead raising crime victims' and jury members' real-world expectations of forensic science, especially crime scene investigation and DNA testing. This is said to have changed the way many trials are presented today, in that prosecutors are pressured to deliver more forensic evidence in court. The Darwin Awards are a tongue-in-cheek honor, created by Wendy Northcutt to recognize those who have contributed to human evolution by exceptionally negative means. Ten lift truck accidents previously blamed on operator error were investigated as part of a safety curriculum project. The project attempted to determine the adequacy of standard forklift training courses. Each accident was serious and had produced an injury. The environmental design aspects found in these accidents are discussed here. David Beeler - Reginald Syngen-Smithe Tom Konkle - Budwin W.

Jude Gerard Prest is a writer/actor/producer/director I have been writing, acting and filming with extensively in the past few years. We both really like The Godfather Part 1 and 2 films so we decided to talk about them here #godfather2

I am joined by friend and futurist Tony Johnson as we talk about the moral, technological and scientific ramifications of being immortal. In the film, the Eternals, an immortal alien race, emerge from hiding after thousands of years to protect Earth. So....What if we lived forever? Is it even possible? #science #life #technology

My friend passed away a few years ago and we'd done tracks together like the Safety Geeks SVI show theme song and others. He was an fantastic songwriter, musician and very funny. Influenced by #PeterGabriel and #XTC and the Beatles, he had a great ear for a melody. I wanted to share more of the songs. His voice was amazing and musicianship was incredible. We did a song for a commercial once and he played everything. Here is a selection of songs from 97 to 02 with the amazing Michael Sherwood.

Join @Script Doctor of @Midnight's Edge and Tom in a look at a noir film you might not have seen but is one of the best of it's time. It hugely influenced Tom's own noir movie and many, many more. Let's have with a discussion of the film starring Robert Mitchum, Jane Greer and Kirk Douglas.

Script Doctor and I have begun writing together and we started talking about films we love and genres we love. Like film noir. So we wanted to talk about Billy Wilder's Double Indemnity. A car swerves through downtown streets at night. The driver stumbles to the office of the Pacific All Risk Insurance Company and begins to record his confession about killing a man named Dietrichson. He flashes back to the beginning of the ordeal, when he first met the Dietrichsons. He, Walter Neff, was an insurance salesman who renewed Mr. Dietrichson's policy at home. Walter was attracted to the man's wife Phyllis, although her manner was cold and sarcastic. She asked Walter about accident insurance for her wealthy husband. Walter accused her of trying to get him to kill her husband and refused. At his apartment, Phyllis told Walter how abusive her husband was, so Walter agreed to kill Dietrichson. Walter tricked Dietrichson into signing the accident insurance policy which insured Dietrichson's life for $50,000--an amount to be doubled in case he had a fatal accident on a train. Walter also gave Lola, Dietrichson's daughter from his late, first wife, a ride to town where she secretly met her boyfriend Nino Zachette. Several weeks later, Dietrichson agreed to take the train to attend a college reunion. Walter killed Dietrichson and posed as as him and got on the train. Later, Walter jumped off the train and with Phyllis' help, placed Dietrichson's body on the tracks to make it look like Dietrichson had fallen off the train to his death. Walter's boss Keyes told Walter that he suspected that Dietrichson's death was no accident, but a murder committed by Phyllis and her lover, Nino Zachette. Walter went to Phyllis' house and she shot him. He shot her dead and drove to the insurance office to record his confession.

As a filmmaker, I think that some great filmmakers do a disservice to look down their noses at popular work while trying themselves to find an large audience to sustain their own massive $150 million budgets themselves like Villeneuve and Scorsese. These are some of my thoughts. Please comment below. #Dune #TheIrishman

PASSION, MURDER, AND BETRAYAL. JUST ANOTHER DAY AT THE OFFICE. Private eye Roland Drake (Tom Konkle) cracks cases and romances femme fatales in 1940’s Los Angeles while corrupt cop police detective Barry Tate (Vernon Wells) rules the city. A tale told in the classic style of film noir. Drake has fallen on hard times in a harsh world. He has been evicted from his office and disgraced by a missing persons case. Ruined in the public eye and with the police. it seems like it’s all over for Roland Drake. Then, redemption walks in – with curves. The owner of those curves is a sexy, dark haired beauty named Katherine Montemar (Brittney Powell). She wants his help. Her concern for the disappearance of her family members pulls him into her case – and into bed. Classic film noir movies from the 1940s and 50s that are freely available on YouTube. Many film noir playlists on YouTube include movies. Film noir (French for "black film") is a cinematic term used primarily to describe stylish Hollywood crime and drama movies, particularly those that emphasize cynical attitudes and sexual motivations. The classic film noir period is considered as being from the early 1940's until the late 1950's. The films that qualify as film noir cinema feature low-key, black and white photography inspired by the chiaroscuro lighting of renaissance art and German Expressionism. Many film critics and historians have cited Citizen Kane and Touch of Evil as the bookends of the film noir era in Hollywood, of course both of those films were directed by Orson Welles. Film noir movies were as much a moment in history as they were a look created by a lighting style. It was the post-war era in America. The world, and particularly the returning veterans, had seen horrors the likes of which they'd never imagined. They'd killed, seen friends killed, liberated concetration camps, witnessed first hand the horrors of a world war. The men who came back had a unique view of the world. One that they were not equipped to talk about. How did this manifest? One way was in classic film noir cinema. Picture Humphrey Bogart playing Phillip Marlowe. Or Sam Spade. In either case he was a man with a past, and man capable of violence. A man unsure of right and wrong until the final moment. This was the hardboiled detective, and the film noir detective is a large part of the genre.
