The Xtacles #1: “Operation: Mountain Punch” | November 10, 2008 - 12:00AM | S01E01

Hey, this was actually fairly good!

This is set a year after Frisky Dingo. Xander Crewes is still in space, which means we don’t have to listen to Adam Reed’s voice. The Xtacles are on the Xcalibur (that’s the name of the ship; information I managed to not retain despite watching every episode of Frisky Dingo) just waiting for his orders. Command has been taken over by Jack, who insists that they can’t so much as change the airship’s course without Xander’s say-so, despite him being gone. Hell bent on upholding Xander’s absent leadership, Jack refuses even to navigate around the Rockies, America’s most beloved mountain range. So the ship is just crashing into (and obliterating the tops of) various mountains.

With each mountain, the ship is getting closer to a crucial point at which it can no longer withstand the collision and explode, killing everyone on board. The stubborn Jack is vigilant, insisting that they remain on this track. Eventually the computer’s intelligent hologram is activated to try and talk sense into him. Meanwhile, the Xtacles decide to party, since it could be their last chance to get wasted. 

Okay, from what I can tell, this show was put together because Adam Reed was “on hiatus”, probably so he could commit–I mean, experience sexual… uh, encounters, and NOT crimes, in Prague. Matt Thompson took the lead on this show, which seems to aim to make the Frisky Dingo franchise a little more episodic. I’m saying this without having seen the second episode, and if there’s an interview floating around where he says “we were laying the groundwork for a tightly woven continuity unparalleled in the world of television” then I didn’t read it. Continuity-wise, this does refer to the events in Frisky Dingo, and characters like Mr. Ford and Stan carryover as well. But, this has more in common with I, Robot than it does Meet Killface. Personally, I think that’s a great thing. 

Other notable differences: the Xtacles all mostly have their helmets off, which seems like a wise move. There are some honest-go-god recognizable actors in the voice cast. Stan is now president of the United States, and there’s a fairly funny scene where he hears about the mountains getting exploded while doing an appearance in a grade school, reading a class of small children a book about *A* pet goat. This is a parody of the real-life incident of George W. Bush being alerted about 9/11 while taking part in a similar appearance. Bush opted to finish reading the book to the kids as to not upset them. Stan immediately jumps to the conclusion that terrorists are destroying America and not only does he coldly alert the children to this fact, but he also passes out cyanide caplets and encourages them all to commit suicide to avoid a fate worse than death. 

This is available on Adult Swim’s website. Just go to “Specials”, filed alphabetically on the series page. It’s also currently on youtube, which is actually how I watched it because the Adult Swim app isn’t working correctly on my new (hand-me-down) TV. Quality could be better, so lower your expectations.

Amazon Moves From Film Industry’s Margins to the Mainstream Sacha Baron Cohen may have been going a little mad. It was August 2020, the pandemic was raging and his secret production had shut down. He was determined to reprise his role as Borat in a feature film designed to satirize the Trump administration ahead of the November election. But how? First he persuaded Universal Studios to allow him to shop his incomplete movie. Then he cobbled together an hour of footage. (The infamous scene with Rudolph W. Giuliani had yet to be filmed.) Hulu was interested. So was Netflix. But Amazon Studios was the one most committed to getting the movie out in time, no matter the cost. Amazon spent $80 million to acquire “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm,” a decision that incurred extra expenses because of Covid protocols, test screenings in New Zealand — one of the few places in the world at the time where the company could gather a group of people in a dark movie theater — and a last-minute dash to incorporate all the gonzo footage before the film’s release on Oct. 23. (Mr. Cohen was cutting it close, still shooting three weeks before he had to deliver the movie.) “They broke every rule for us,” Mr. Cohen said in a phone interview. “There was a certain delivery schedule that they felt was necessary, and they halved that time. They realized the imperative of getting this out before the election. And they changed their procedures completely to help us do this. I’m really, really grateful.” Jennifer Salke, the head of Amazon Studios, is also grateful. When the Golden Globes air on Sunday, “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” will be competing for three awards: best comedy or musical, best actor and best supporting actress (Maria Bakalova). Other Amazon acquisitions, including Regina King’s directorial debut, “One Night in Miami,” and “Sound of Metal,” starring Riz Ahmed, are also contending for prizes. Those accolades, coupled with the cultural impact “Borat” has enjoyed across the globe, have significantly altered the perception of Amazon Studios’s film division in Hollywood and among Amazon’s more than 150 million Prime subscribers. (The studio, which does not disclose viewer numbers, will say only that tens of millions of subscribers watched “Borat.”) Once a home for indie darlings such as “Manchester by the Sea” and “The Big Sick,” Amazon Prime Video is transforming itself into a place for commercial films with broad appeal that can travel internationally. It’s all part of Ms. Salke’s plan to turn Prime into a service people subscribe to for more than free shipping for their paper towels. “We had seen firsthand when Amazon gets behind a piece of content, just how big the muscle is that they are capable of flexing,” said David Ellison, chief executive of Skydance Media and the producer of Amazon’s “Jack Ryan” series. He recently sold the films “Without Remorse” and “The Tomorrow War” to Amazon. “With ‘Borat,’ they showed they could do that with films, too,” he said. Amazon has thrived in the last year, with profits increasing some 200 percent since the pandemic began. That success has extended to its film business. Like other streaming services, it has been able to snatch up big-budget, star-driven films that studios have been forced to shelve in response to the closing of movie theaters. Netflix, Apple, Disney+ and Hulu have all benefited from the studios’ woes, but Amazon has been one of the most aggressive in acquiring new movies. In September, Ms. Salke acquired “Without Remorse” — starring Michael B. Jordan and based on a Tom Clancy series — for $105 million. It will debut at the end of April. The following month, it paid $125 million for the rights to “Coming 2 America,” which will premiere on March 5. Eddie Murphy was initially hesitant about taking the sequel to his much-beloved film to Amazon, but Ms. Salke and others say he was reassured by the performance of “Borat.” In January, the company made its biggest bet yet, paying $200 million to acquire the Chris Pratt-led action film “The Tomorrow War,” which Paramount was set to release. To date, it stands as Amazon’s largest financial commitment in acquiring a feature film. The company hopes to debut it on Prime Video this summer. “We don’t have a huge bench of big blockbuster movies in the works,” Ms. Salke said with a laugh. “So for us it was opportunistic to be able to lean into that.” With more players than ever joining the streaming fray (Paramount+, anyone?), the pace at which new content is delivered is an issue every service worries about. Netflix threw down the gauntlet in January when it announced its 2021 strategy of delivering one new movie per week, which followed WarnerMedia’s announcement that all of Warner Bros.’s 2021 theatrical films would debut in theaters and on its HBO Max streaming service at the same time. With so much volume being offered by those two companies, along with Disney’s recent announcement that at least 80 percent of its 100 new projects would be earmarked for Disney+, the only way to compete is to go big. “It’s going to be really interesting over the next three years,” said Roeg Sutherland, one of the heads of media finance for Creative Artists Agency. “With platforms programming one new movie a week, this is fueling a competitive marketplace for high-end, independently financed films.” At the Sundance Film Festival last month, Apple paid a record $25 million for rights to the independent film “Coda.” Ms. Salke pushes back on the idea that her plans to broaden her offerings is a reaction to her competitors. Rather, she said, it’s the culmination of a strategy that began at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, when as a newcomer to the film world, she spent $46 million to acquire four films, including “Late Night” with Emma Thompson and Mindy Kaling, and the feel-good movie “Brittany Runs a Marathon.” Before joining Amazon, Ms. Salke spent her career in television, shepherding hits like “Modern Family” and “Glee” at Fox and “This Is Us” at NBCUniversal. After her Sundance shopping spree, she was mocked by some film insiders as an out-of-touch television executive overspending to acquire niche movies. She was criticized for paying $13 million for “Late Night,” when it grossed $15.4 million at the box office. “Brittany Runs a Marathon” earned just $7 million. That commentary still seems to sting Ms. Salke, though she argues that she released the films theatrically only to appease the filmmakers. The movies’ real metric of success, she said, was how they played on the streaming service. “Those movies all kept coming out as No. 1,” said Ms. Salke, referencing the films’ performances on Amazon Prime. “Every time we launched one, the next one would eclipse the next one. We were training our audience to know that we would have big original films that were more commercial on Prime Video. It’s a little bit of an ‘If you build it, they will come’ strategy.” But what happens to that plan once the pandemic is over and studios are no longer willing to sell their movies to streaming platforms? Amazon has some 34 films in various stages of production around the world and Ms. Salke said the company was committed to spending upward of $100 million on a production if merited. (Amazon’s founder, Jeff Bezos, is stepping down as the company’s chief executive later this year, but the studio isn’t expecting any big changes when Andy Jassy takes the reins.) The Culver City, Calif., complex is still being built and, if anything, investment has increased. Ms. Salke points to Aaron Sorkin’s upcoming film about Lucy and Desi Arnaz, starring Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem, as a potential hit. There’s also George Clooney’s film “The Tender Bar,” starring Ben Affleck, and an LGBTQ romantic drama called “My Policeman,” featuring Harry Styles and Emma Corrin (“The Crown”). “The new news is that you will see us embrace some bigger projects going forward that are self-generated,” she said. In Ms. Salke’s mind, this was always the place where Amazon Film was going to land. And there is a newfound confidence to her outlook as she celebrates her third anniversary as the head of the studio. In addition to her recent acquisition spree, she’s made overall content deals with Mr. Jordan and the actor and musician Donald Glover, which she says will reinforce her mission to burnish Amazon’s reputation as a talent-friendly place. With its healthy subscription base, Amazon is attracting those in Hollywood who are interested in the company’s global reach but also curious about the company’s other businesses that have the potential to expand a star’s brand beyond film and television. Mr. Jordan, for one, said his overall content deal would allow him to explore areas other studios can’t offer: specifically fashion, music and podcasts. His portrayal of the physical incarnation of Amazon’s Alexa during a Super Bowl ad was an example. And Ms. King got a kick out of just how pervasive Amazon’s marketing of her film was whenever she logged into the company’s e-commerce site. “When I’m on Amazon, buying doggie bags, and my film pops up at the top, that’s pretty amazing,” she said. “That’s like, wow! Every single day I am getting a text from someone who saw the movie that probably wouldn’t have seen it if it didn’t pop up in their shopping queue.” Source link Orbem News #Amazon #Film #Industrys #mainstream #Margins #Moves

“... this is not the time to come to the United States, we need the time to put in place an immigration process (inaudible mumbling) people can be treated humanely”

The thing is, USA was founded on immigration, nearly 250 years ago.

The Biden Administration says USA has not figured out how to do humane immigration yet.

I suppose there is still some time to figure out how to do humane immigration. Maybe they will get started on that soon. Psaki does not say that any policy making will be done, what she said was, they need more time. The message is that there is no time, I was wrong with initial statement about supposing there was some time.

By deduction, according to the Biden administration, the past two-hundred-fifty years or so, has all been inhumane migration policy and process, the foundation on which USA was born.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF3yN8Cj_rE

Biden says he wants to buy a vowel.

(V = B)

Vanna White and Pat Say Jack are selling ampersands on a competing syndicated game show.

==================

1:33 pm:

If you studied this account, then you can easily read that episode of Beat the Clock.

It’s guest, contestants, stupid human tricks, host, studio audience, advertised product prizes and announcer, wardrobe... the whole thing, contains a language that spells out instructions to use rectally holstered nitrous oxide gas as weapon, to “clean the country”, while capturing the children at “the mouse hole”, Disneyland. It further spells out that those who try to use a typewriter to contact a big brother (police) are to be killed. There are instructions to use Thompson Machine guns and baseball bats for rounding up victims into a bottleneck trap where they are killed.

That is only one episode, of only one game show.

Joe Biden wants to buy a vowel. He needs time, he says. 250 years was not enough to create a Home of the Brave, Land of the Free.

It’s the home of the Captive Ignorant, and land of the Week Cowards.

Home of the Tyrants, Land of the Dictators.

Home of the Dead, Land of the not quite Dead yet.

=======================================

1:57 pm:

Vowels = A; E; I; O; U; and sometimes Y.

Vowels = a; e; i; o; u; and sometimes y.

“AE, I O U.” is a complete sentence.

Arts & Entertainment, I owe you.

You could do a Cracker Jack Decoder Ring decode on it, see where it leads.

I don’t want to do that at the moment.

Gnosis is in here somewhere:

“I before E, except after C” is bullshit Gnosis, it was put into circulation to help keep people stupid, it never works, is a lie, part of the Russian Mother Hoax SDA nanny British Still training, was mainstreamed.

Biden wants to by a Vowel ...

Y is the one he is looking for.

A “splitter”. Has one input, binary output.

Backwards, it channels two inputs into a single, bottle-necked, output.

Biden is looking for “A Loaner”. (study this account to learn about the “Loaner Sword”)

The Psaki Tweet is about buying time, in a game show, so it’s a Vowel where V = B, a “Loaner Sword w/loaded Bowel”

(I’m on the Left today, poised to run the Jesus Gauntlet soon, I have no help, people will die, either I will be killed, or I will defend, and others will be killed when I begin to run the Jesus Gauntlet. There are no helpful people, I will be outnumbered by about 125,000:1. The Gauntlet includes a mandated bottleneck is part of the Jesus Gauntlet, specially designed, all worked out more than three months ago, is in place, I know it’s there, the Gauntlet makers at Biden HQ put it there, so they have the advantage of a highly controlled environment in the Bottleneck. I have the advantage once confined within it, that’s how I roll)

Biden buys a Vowel, on a loaner, at the Bottleneck.

“AE, I O U.”

That is out in the open.

The Y, is what is hidden.

I suggest nsa put their big boy pants on, the Y is not there for me, it’s there for nsa. - - -

2:11 pm:

nsa should learn everything there is to know about “Roll Reversal” acting technique. Soon.

The entire premise of contemporary terror scenario is based on Roll Reversal.

Extreme complication.

Example:

There is a stake out. nsa is watching activity at a location, trying figure out W T actual F is going on.

The terror bastards are connected to the nsa leadership, they know exactly where the stake out is happening, who the individuals are, what equipment they have, who and what the focus of the investigation is, and, they also know the names and address, personal contact information of the nsa extended family, and more. They had all of that information before the airplane they rode in, landed at the airport, because SAG is TSA, and also is ATC, and also is Port Authority, ATF, DHS, and FEMA.

That is how they know so much ahead of time.

The terror takes advantage of the stake out with use of Roll Reversal actor/terror/assassin special operatives.

So, while nsa has listening capability, SAG has better equipment.

SAG assassin will knock on the door where a subject of investigation lives. They are dressed in some kind of special attire, could be a Gumby costume, or a business suit, or any thing that is not just regular street clothes.

That person knocks at the door, knowing that nsa is listening, the door opens, and that is when Roll Reversal begins. The assassin at the door says: “Why are you wearing a Gumby costume?” to the person that opened the door, who is wearing some appropriate clothing for lounging at home.

That, and some more supportive dialogue is spoken by the one that knocked at the door wearing the Gumby costume. The one who lives there is being gassed with nitrous at the door at the same time, and no matter what that person says right then, all the nsa stakeout people are going to hear is an offensive statement, like “get the fuck out of my house you asshole!”.

There is enough confusion and time to kill the victim, who lives there, then take off the Gumby suit, and put it onto the dead victim, and in that five minutes of activity, the assassin becomes the victim, takes the place of the one who lives there, clothing is switched. The assassin is wearing comfortable lounging attire beneath the Gumby suit.

At the end of five minutes, there is a dead person wearing a Gumby suit, and a person who claims to live at that house wearing comfortable clothing that is expected to be worn by someone at home.

The stake out celebrates that the subject was able to defend against the Gumby.

The stake out members are killed at the celebration dinner, and awards ceremony they have for doing great detective work, by the real Gumby, Pokey, and the contents of many books where the Gumby crew picked up some friends, D’Artagnan and the Three Musketeers show up at the police academy awards banquet, they bring Alice hidden inside of a decorative cake, at Wonderland, for takeover of their whole ship.

Don‘t forget that one of the first things Alice does, is she looks into a mirror. That, is planted symbolic Roll Reversal jargon that goes back a long way, so when I said contemporary terror scenarios, I mean the kind that began with invent of electronic broadcast and recording technology.

Look into a mirror and you see a reversed image of the self.

“Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, Who’s the (insert the words of a marked victim here) of them all?”

The terror pirates become the marked victim before the victim is killed, and they do that intentionally while knowing the public safety people are watching them do it.

===

That is a simple Roll Reversal, a standard one, for simple targeted marks, it works when you consider that the entire stake out neighborhood is fogged with nitrous oxide/Medazolam gas mixture before the Gumby shows up at the victim/subject’s door, and Gumby’s crew has better, more advanced surveillance equipment than does the nsa stake out.

===============================

3:22 pm:

Do reversal on the reversal, put the pirate ship into the bottle:

You have to put the whole fleet of pirate ships into separate bottles:

Otherwise they use this kind of thing when they capture the nsa:

It’s not like it has not been going on for centuries, it’s that no one likes to think about it, that the Christians might not be all that great and innocent after all. It’s much easier to look at Muslim goat farmers who drive old Toyota trucks in the desert.

=====

3:41 pm:

“I before E except after C”

“Eye beef or Eeeee, accept aft, or sea”

♣ “Choose to take one for the team, or we toss you overboard, Laddy”

♦ “But why?”

It’s the vowel Biden is looking for. I’ve been playing this game my whole life, I am not taking one for the team, I am not going overboard.

Those are the rules.

The Y goes off into another direction also. Only they know what way it goes. It’s all prearranged. The Gauntlet is set, the actors have rehearsed their lines, done dress rehearsal many times, are prepared.

They have nitrous gas, medazolam gas, “Boutique airborne gasses”, ones that produce symptoms such as sea sickness symptoms, laxative symptoms, vertigo symptoms, long term exposure makes a rash, itching, blurry vision... many symptoms, they have advantage if knowing of presence of the gas, while either knowing and using wind speed and direction, or with a controlled environment where the air conditioning is directed in favor of optimum result and minimal risk to pirates.

If nsa has not done their own research with medazolam, that is a big mistake.

It’s not possible to remember what happened while exposed to medazolam gas. not even the murderous pirate can remember what they did when they kill in bulk.

The pirates took over the hospitals, they have access to all of the surgical grade anesthetic gasses, in bulk, and all obtained above board, not in the alley.

Truck loads of gasses. Freight train cars filled with anesthetic gasses, releasing as it goes along the tracks, with wind speed and direction used as a timing device, while on the way to the mill.

The propane truck you see, may not be filled with propane.

Five and ten gallon tanks fit into the trunk of a car, releasing along the freeway, on a Jesus Gauntlet, makes the car you are driving begin to suddenly accelerate because nitrous oxide is rocket fuel.

Pedestrian pirates hang around at places where dangerous curves and other difficult traffic conditions already exist. When the government leaders and news media Fauci fans, When “The Burk’s of the Hathaway in the Shire”, say “Flatten the Curve” they are saying “Flatulate at Dead Man‘s Curve”, there is one in every town. It means to do freeway fogging at the known dangerous traffic conditions.They also use the “Round-a-Bout” circular intersections to say the same thing in the Twitter news.

It makes people either crash, or pull over to see what is wrong with the car, or pull in to a service station COVID Take Test Center, or, it make a speeding ticket waiting to happen when the Royal Canadian Mounted Police are stalking the victims from the Freeway median with RADAR gun.

I learned all of this the hard way, so you won‘t have to when I enplane and spell it all out, but no one will send any help, they still trying to figure out how to spell Ceiling, Receive, and Receipt.

There is a town called Ashland Oregon at I-5 Exit 19.

There, is the center of all things Shakespearean. They have a theater there that is dedicated to only Shakespeare plays. The place is famous for providing free broadband Optical Highspeed Internet to every inhabitant, Gnome Chompsky is the city’s unadvertised mascot, it’s the heart of everything “Democrat” in Oregon. Ashland is famous for Birkenstock Sandals worn with socks, where they are called “Jesus Sandals”. It’s OK to wear them in Ashland, with socks, but anywhere else, is a one way ticket to the Jesus Gauntlet.

Deborah Birkenstock's, with socks.

It’s a signature artifact that was left behind in real time, of the Twitter Time Warp terror, when the current Twitter feed time line, a time line that is more than ten years old, was first presented in Oregon as Beta Twitter, Donald Trump was president in Oregon in 2008, Joe Biden was already president, in 2008, when viewed from Oregon on Beta Twitter. Fauci, Burk, all of Corona Virus, those two Red Cross navy hospital boat stories, and most of what we see on twitter today, already took place in Oregon in 2008 and there about, at a time before the 2009 public national roll out of Twitter. They played the same time line from all of the networks as is presented now, on fast forward, at a rate of about ten years of Twitter time line presented within two years.

I was a Beta Twitter Verified Account holder at the time. They kicked me out when I used the platform to try to reach some help in a failed national security situation in Oregon that remains a failure today.

Nancy Sinatra, and Patricia Arquette were among the first to come to my home to find out why I was exposing truth on Beta Twitter.

Hillary Clinton was not far behind those two, and she wound up with a big hole in her tongue from a red hot poker heated with a Thermite welder by her thugs in my front yard. It all went sideways when they tried to poke me with it.

Birkenstock's with socks is a Ashland Oregon artifact left behind from that time.

I-5, Exit 19 Shakespeare Capital of Oregon, Ashland.

Teva Sandals are another of the “Jesus Sandals” where it marks a victim simply by wearing the sandals. Those are TV and Audio entertainment sponsored murder hit identifier tools, they go back a long way.

In Oregon, you need specific acceptable products. Some examples are simple ones... for watering your lawn or garden, you need a “Fan nozzle” for the hose, any other kind of nozzle is “Forbidden“, you will marked for takeout if seen using anything other than a “Fan nozzle”. Evert household is required to have a cleaning supplies container:

Has to be that kind, and the supplies in it are also specific.

It has to be stored under the kitchen sink, no where else is allowed.

There used to be people who came door to door to make sure everyone complied with “The Rules”.

You must keep a small plastic grocery shopping bag on the kitchen counter top for your trash, no kitchen trash cans allowed. Those door to door people were checking to see the contents of the trash in the bag.

They took away all of the kitchen sharp knives, only butter knives were allowed.

They took away peoples tools, anything sharp was taken by those people in around 1997-1998.

They came with Thompson machine guns to do the checking for what they called “Contraband”, which could be a steak knife, or the wrong nozzle for the garden hose, or the wrong place where the cleaning supplies are stored.

You need this kind of garden water can. Any other kind is “Forbidden“.

The families were instructed to simply be outside, to water the garden, when told to do so. Presumably that was done when national security investigated terror reports that were coming in, so, when they arrive, all they see is people enjoying a fine spring day, doing some gardening.

There are hundreds of specific items that people of Oregon were forced to have, and unlimited things that were “Forbidden“ and taken away by the Thompson brigade. Those people later became Pacific Power Corporation, and wound up taking over the entire Rocky Mountain Power Corporation.

I always defended when those people came to my house. My family was held in captivity as a result, they would have killed all of us, but I have useful skills that I was forced to perform design and technical drawings for them, some of that work is on Boeing airplanes in the cockpit instrument clusters, and signage throughout the airplanes.

I designed a lot of guitars and guitar parts for Dean Zelinsky, Zakk Wylde, and Eastwood Guitars while held captive at gunpoint, literally at gun point while doing design work.

“Do what we say, or we kill your children“

I already had seen hundreds of students killed at the schools, so I did what they asked me to do.

Much of the Walgreen‘s Pharmacy signage was created at my house while held captive. I created the Tesla Logo,

Those are some of the designs I was forced to create.

The Christian terror machine is way bigger than anyone will recognize. Public Safety personnel are always standing right on top of the thing they are looking for, always, right on top of Mt. Everest, they see a pebble on the ground, and begin investigating the pebble, when it’s the mountain they are standing on that is the source of the terror.

Don‘t let that Saudi Oil fool you, that is a rebranded British Petroleum product label.

Don‘t be fooled by the Huawei label, that is Hong Kong and Hollywood in bed with together, is not China. Hong Kong is Little London.

==========================================

5:52 pm:

My makeshift Blue-Tooth detection meter is pegged, is flatlined with solid and continuous tone, is loud. There are terror bastards communicating nearby wide open and continuous.

================

7:36 pm:

Those machine gun wielding terror soldiers who took over Boeing and became Pacific Power Corporation, who held me and my family captive and forced me to make graphic designs, technical drawings, and invent a whole bunch of products, had this in 1998:

Seagate FreeAgent Desk external hard drive. I think the one they had, in 1998, was three terabytes.

This one shown is 1.5 terabytes.

These were not publicly available until around 2008, ten years later, but that is the thing that I had to transfer the files to after creating the art. I was not allowed to keep any of the work I did, and they took the hard drive away with each machine gun visit.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Seagate-FreeAgent-Desk-Hard-drive-1-5-TB-external-desktop-3-5-USB-2-0-7200-rpm-silver/10575416?irgwc=1&sourceid=imp_Q%3Ay1QS3ikxyLU2QwUx0Mo36eUkEW0vXv20fW2g0&veh=aff&wmlspartner=imp_2003851&clickid=Q%3Ay1QS3ikxyLU2QwUx0Mo36eUkEW0vXv20fW2g0&sharedid=&affiliates_ad_id=566719&campaign_id=9383

The terror army is ten years ahead of everyone else with the technology they have, because they hijacked all of the major technology innovators, they hold back the emerging technology, especially to stay ten years ahead of global security agencies.The new tech is kept secret, used by the pirates. While US military is left behind with old tech, the terror bastards have tech advantage, they have stuff that no one outside of their club has seen before, and don’t even know that such tech exists. You have to keep in mind that US Military contracts the equipment needs they have to civilian technology innovators to develop what they need, so, when the hijacked companies are approached, they don‘t provide the latest whiz bang tech to the US Military, yet they go ahead and develop next level technology to keep for themselves.

nsa is ten years behind the enemy. Write that down with your Brother Typewriter, so you don‘t forget when the medazolam kicks in.

======================================

9:14 pm:

I took a walk to the mailbox, I did not go outside at all yesterday.

It’s 35 degrees and quiet.

There was a bright flash of light, as lightning looks, was on the ground about at where the I-5 freeway onramp 66 is at, where the ODOT Maintenance yard is about one and one half miles north east from here. There was There was a bright flash of light, as lightning looks, was on the ground about at where the I-5 freeway onramp 66 is at, where the ODOT Maintenance yard is about one and one half miles north east from here. There was no noise associated with the bright flash.

There is some familiar terror communication done with a rope light at the Offensive Monroe Surveillance Travel Trailer. The message is “Serpent”, or “Chinese Dragon“, or perhaps “Sea Serpent”. I suppose it could be a “Welsh Dragon”, if so, that could be a Shane Welsh signature, from SDA Green Jello terror cell. I thought he was dead, but could have healed from his wounds. Shane looks similar to Marylin Manson without makeup, and dresses in GQ sort of clothes, usually walks with a cane, but no limp. It’s all been done many times before, so, the same terrorist is there announcing a signature with a rope light arrangement as is there from time to time. There are many signature statements made by many terror soldiers or terror cells to remember, I know of a few identities, but hardly any names of the individuals who use items arranged a particular way to say who they are. All of the terrorists go to the same church, so they are all informed about signature terror cell statements made with ordinary objects. I know of one individual who leaves a empty wine bottle on a picnic table if a table is available, if no table, then a table will be arranged somehow, with the empty wine bottle on it, so others know that Rod was there, who has an accomplice he calls Norton.

Shane Welsh and his accomplice Zachary White are both experienced and highly skilled computer hackers who have written some of the bugs that are installed into the Google Gmail, and more. They specialize in tiny little computer bugs that are used in association to non computer related things that are done by the county courts terror cell. They also specialize in installing invisible key stroke recorders, where everything a person types is sent to Google or Centurylink, or others. Value Added Malware, is what they do.

It’s notable that at the very instant that I did a Bing search for the Seagate FreeAgent Desk Hard Drive, with Shane Welsh in mind, I received a text message from Pain Specialists of Southern Oregon. Part of the significance is with a collage class called “Help Desk”, where Shane and Zack both got their hacking training from twenty years ago, and, that FreeAgent disk is a Encryption specific disk called FreeAgent Desk. I know there does not seem to be much connection to anything, but they are pirates, and the thing is called “Sea Gate Desk“. Do math. Pain Specialists of Southern Oregon has been trying to kill me with each visit there for about six years, I have killed all of the fake doctors and staff in defense over that time frame, and now, there are no remaining original staff at the Pain Specialists. I keep trying to get national security to follow me there to see what happens, but no one will send any help. It’s more likely that the investigative people would trust the terror bastards that run the Pain Center of Southern Oregon, try to set up shop inside the place, and that is not going to work, they are walking into a den of lions that look like little mice. It’s a fools folly when it comes to US national security. Pain Specialists closes at 4:00 pm most days, yet the text came at 7:08 pm. The previous phone message they left was on a Sunday... it’s a “doctors office”, they are not famous for working on Sundays or “after hours” (after Owe’rs).The text came from the wrong phone number: 888-513-2443, it’s supposed to be: 541-779-5228. The whole place has changed to new management as of around September or October 2020 when Paul Leppert, the last remaining terror doctor there, was killed in defense, it’s documented on this account somewhere. Shane and Zack run with a heavy gal by the name of Katie, who I have seen wearing a nurse outfit at Pain Specialists of Southern Oregon. She is a murderous terror soldier the same as all of them are. All of the real doctors have been dead for twenty years, and now all of the replacement fake terror soldier doctors are all dead, but no one is interested in sending any help of the caliber that is required, US Military caliber is required for solving problems in Oregon, given that the entire population of the state has all been killed and replaced with Canadians.

Zachary White is presumed to have been killed in defense a few months ago along with Shane Welsh. I don‘t get a death certificate sent to me when I defend myself, so, I really have no way of knowing that a terrorist survived being run through with a sword, or loses a limb, or eye, or other body part while I was defending. Zach White should not be confused with Zakk Wylde, that is a different terror soldier. Zack White is about 45 years old, white, about 6′ 0″ tall, has short auburn or light brown hair, has a prominent mole on his cheek, is about 185 pounds, does not drive a car, rides a bicycle, last known address is the eastern most corner (nearest to the freeway of that corner) house at A St. and Beacon Dr., used to live near at the nearest house to the sewage treatment plant that is over by All Sports Park side of town. Zack is known for having “Partner” experimental surgery victims, the experiments that did not work, Zack  has access to those kind of victims. They don‘t look like human beings anymore by the time Zachary White is given one of them. I have one of his old vehicles in my front yard, a Datsun Truck, 1985 I think. He dropped it off here about 17 years ago and it’s been parked here since.

There is a terror cell that uses two orange cones as their signature. I am pretty sure that they are from the house on Monument Drive, a single tax lot, with two houses on it, a log truck parks there, lots of junk in the front yard, is owned by one of the County Judges. Specifically the house directly across Monument is the one that uses two orange cones as a signature marker when they do take out work. That is about 1000 feet away from where that flash of light came from, best guess.

The mail contained more Carpenters Union mail. This one has the fake logo on it, is fake at least as far as a temporary arrangement to say a message. My read on it now is that the Carpenters Union in Los Angeles is in league with the Google/YouTube Logo BHM terror event I looked at yesterday. The contents of the envelope look authentic, but could be fake.

My electric bill is enormous, that came today also.

A advertisement from Gentle Dental was also in the mailbox: 541-299-9116 to scheduled a fast and painless extermination and cleaning.

There are new lighting conditions across Russell Road from Chapman’s, where a very bright red light was installed about three years ago, it’s one of many red lights that have been placed around the area. The red lights serve as camouflage for sniper red laser light at random times. The mark gets used to seeing the existence of a red light in the distance, it becomes a normal thing to see, then, they shut that off one day, and a sniper takes position there were the red light is known to be at, so, when the sniper’s laser is activated, there is nothing out of the ordinary if the mark happens to see the red light in the distance. The change in lighting there is a additional porch light, or other glow of a lightbulb in a place where usually there has been only the red light. So, over time, three additional white, incandescent looking bulbs have been placed there near that red light, to the left, from my view.

Around here, every tiny lightbulb is a communication tool, even if there are no microphone transmitters hidden in them. Even small solar garden lights say something simply by being there.

The telescope at Monroe’s that has been pointing at my gate from about fifty feet away has been turned about 15 degrees counter clockwise, is level, points at nothing specific, as I step through the gate, it’s pointing at me. Before, it was pointed at my gate lock. no one ever uses the telescope, it’s an expensive looking thing, is outside in all weather, gets turned on it’s tripod on occasion, rarely changes location.

I see no changes in the Monroe yard for about two weeks. Before that, many changes happening daily, and that Google assassin that I photographed had been there for a few months. The only noticeable change I can see in the dark is that rope light. Two nights ago, a wall mounted lantern was being used as communication to others from the Monroe Surveillance Trailer, where for the past three years or so, there has been someone stationed at the trailer waiting to take a shot at me as I walk by, or to come into my house as I am at the mailbox.

That trailer was put there by people I recognized as people who are scouts at the Walmart parking lot. A older white man in his sixties, white hair, big red late model Dual wheel crew cab pick up with 5th wheel towing capability. The trailer is a 5th wheel style, modern, with pop-outs, about 35 feet.

Two trash cans remain at the corner from Monday trash day, a small one from Freeberg, and a large one from Deitrick. Both are black, or dark grey, there is 20 feet between the two, the larger one is placed at a optimum shooting position, where there is illusion, and range considerations toward my driveway. Terror soldiers get inside of the trash cans to shoot at me from time to time.

That’s all for mail run.

As you might be aware, there is a gigantic list of categories for The Emmys, which has made the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences split up the ceremony into two separate weekends, the first of which is deemed the Creative Arts Emmy Awards. That covers the technical and smaller categories including short form, cinematography, and production design.

This year, Hannah Gadsby rightfully garners an Emmy for her writing on Nanette, Russian Doll and Marvelous Ms. Maisel nabbed many technical awards for their beautifully imagined universes, Fleabag was honored for its spot on casting, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend appropriately got honors for original music and choreography, The Simpsons still has staying power after all these years, and James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke has won the hearts and minds of America.

Also, Megan Amram is still without an Emmy for her An Emmy for Megan web series, which is a huge snub. Also, perhaps, it might be a way to force her to renew her own digital short form series, but she needs to, when all is said and done, win one for her genius satire that points an absurdist mirror at the entertainment biz.

In the Bahamas, a Strong Market for New Luxury Homes

The island of New Providence, in the Bahamas, has long been a popular vacation destination: Travelers from the United States, Canada and elsewhere visit for the beaches and the snorkeling, scuba diving and fishing.

When it comes to accommodations, they have their pick of both high-end and affordable beachfront resorts, including in the capital of the Bahamas, Nassau. (New Providence was not affected by Hurricane Dorian, which caused severe damage to some areas of the Bahamas in August.)

Today, New Providence has at least one more draw: a handful of new or soon-to-open luxury residential communities — Albany, Baha Mar Residences and the Residences at GoldWynn — have made the roughly 80-square-mile island increasingly attractive to wealthy buyers from abroad.

Nick Damianos, the owner of Damianos Sotheby’s International Realty in the Bahamas, said his company has seen a 15 percent increase in residential sales in New Providence to foreign buyers in the past decade; he declined to be more specific.

Alistair W. Chisnall, a real estate lawyer at the Nassau-based law firm Graham Thompson, said he, too, had seen sales rise in the past 10 years.

Mr. Damianos and Mr. Chisnall said that the majority of the buyers are from Canada, the United States and Western Europe, although some are South American.

Its sunny locale aside, New Providence appeals to foreign home buyers for several reasons, said Neil Sroka, a real estate consultant.

“People love it because of its strong infrastructure, sophisticated feel, extensive airline connections, and proximity to the U.S.,” he said. (Miami is less than an hour’s flight). “It’s also a safe destination, which is a plus.”

Those who establish New Providence as their main residence may be enticed by the tax benefits, Mr. Sroka said, because Bahamas residents pay no income tax.

Post-Recession Development

Upscale residential development in New Providence took off after the end of the recession in the United States in 2009, Mr. Chisnall said. “After a bust economy, these new properties have been well received and are attracting buyers who want to establish a footprint in the Bahamas, as opposed to flipping them to make money,” he said.

It is the second time after a recession that the Bahamas has lured international buyers, he said. “When the Bahamas came out of its 1930s recession, British socialites and tycoons of business started moving to the islands.”

Mr. Damianos, of Sotheby’s, said the current real estate boom began when the 600-acre Albany opened in 2010 on the southwestern end of New Providence. Until then, he said, the island had three high-end and well-established gated communities: Lyford Cay, open since the 1950s; and Old Fort Bay and Ocean Club Estates, both open since the early 21st century.

“These communities always saw a steady stream of wealthy buyers, but when Albany opened, activity really picked up,” Mr. Damianos said. “Sales were especially brisk because the market was on an upswing after the recession.” He added the buyers were excited about the first new luxury development on the island in decades.

Once the location of a pine forest, the oceanfront community was developed by the private investment firm Tavistock Group and counts the golfers Tiger Woods and Ernie Els, along with the actor and musician Justin Timberlake, among its investors.

Albany’s managing partner, Christopher Anand, likens it to a contemporary urban village. The eight apartment buildings have sleek, white facades and units — 200 of which are complete, with 200 under construction — with light wood floors and large windows overlooking the ocean.

Buyers may choose three- to six-bedroom villas as large as 6,000 square feet that take their design inspiration from traditional Bahamian architecture. And there’s land where they can build custom houses.

The community’s amenities include 10 dining venues; a marina that can accommodate large yachts; a tennis center; an 18-hole golf course designed by Mr. Els; a 40,000-square-foot fitness center and spa; an aquatics area with two pools and a children’s water playground; a movie theater; and a children’s center with an outdoor playground. A concierge staff can organize activities for residents, such as scuba diving, water-skiing and horseback riding on the beach.

Properties start at $5 million, but Mr. Anand said the average price is $8 million. So far, he said, the community has seen $2 billion in sales.

Some of Albany’s residents said they are drawn to its clubby feel. Jo Vickers, a publicist from London (Albany is one of her clients), and her husband, a bond trader, for example, have lived in a home there since 2017 and said that they love the country club ambience. “Everyone knows everyone, and there’s a sense of community,” Ms. Vickers said.

The couple vacationed in the Bahamas for years before buying a property, and Ms. Vickers cited many reasons for establishing a base in New Providence. “It’s efficient, safe and cosmopolitan and has great grocery stores, hospitals and boating,” she said. “Plus, Nassau has a financial center where we have our offices, and British Airways has nonstop flights to London since we’re constantly back and forth.”

Residences Within a Resort

The newest luxury residences in New Providence, Baha Mar Residences, went on the market in the spring and are within Baha Mar, a $4.2 billion, 1,000-acre resort on a half-mile of beachfront.

Consisting of 198 ocean-facing one- to six-bedroom apartments and waterside villas, the properties are divided between two of the resort’s three hotel brands. Rosewood Baha Mar has 91 residences; they range in price from $995,000 to $25 million and pay homage to Bahamian island estate architecture with their ebony finishes and light gray and white palette.

The 107 condominiums at SLS Baha Mar, in comparison, have a modern, minimalist design that includes white oak and natural teak woods and finishes in bright oranges, pinks, greens and sky blues.

Baha Mar’s president, Graeme Davis, declined to say how many units had sold but said the buyers are mainly from the United States, France and Italy.

Residents can use the amenities that hotel guests enjoy, including the 100,000-square-foot casino overlooking the ocean; 42 restaurants and lounges; an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course; 11 swimming pools; and a spa with 24 treatment rooms. They also get 24 free rounds of golf a year, and discounts on food and drinks.

Part Residences, Part Hotel

When it comes to luxury residential real estate in New Providence, the buzz these days is all about GoldWynn, Mr. Damianos said. The beachfront project, by Wynn Development of Toronto, is a half-mile from Baha Mar and scheduled to open in September 2021.

“GoldWynn ticks all the boxes that you would want in a luxury property in New Providence,” he said. “The design is modern, and the location is fantastic.”

Randy Hart, the vice president of Wynn Development, said that GoldWynn’s 160 units are split evenly between hotel suites and residential condos, the latter of which are in a six-story building on the ocean with a rooftop pool. These condos range in size from studios to four bedrooms and cost between $500,000 and $5 million.

“The concept is to provide a boutique and intimate ambience in a market dominated by large developments without scrimping on the amenities,” Mr. Hart said.

The amenities include a beachfront infinity pool, a seaside restaurant, a movie theater, a theater for plays and concerts and a spa offering cosmetic procedures such as Botox treatments.

Construction of GoldWynn is well underway, Mr. Hart said, with 35 percent of its residences already sold to buyers from the United States, Canada and Europe.

Albany, Baha Mar Residences and GoldWynn have brought a diverse mix of upscale properties to New Providence’s real-estate market, according to Mr. Sroka, the real estate consultant. “So far, they are being absorbed at a surprisingly healthy rate,” he said.

New top story from Time: The 50 Most Anticipated Movies Coming Out in Summer 2019

Blockbuster film season has arrived, and its first entry will almost certainly be its biggest. Avengers: Endgame opened last week and shattered all kinds of box office records; its reviews have also been extremely strong.

But the rest of the slate of summer movies is just as intriguing: ambitious live-action Disney adaptations, a star-studded Tarantino return, terrifying original horror stories and soundtracks from rock legends. Here are 50 of the biggest summer movies coming to theaters (and, in some cases, streaming in a living room) near you.

Avengers: Endgame (April 26)

If you’ve stayed with the Marvel Cinematic Universe for 21 films, you’ll probably be happy to sit through the climactic film’s monstrous three-hour runtime. Those of the Avengers extended family who survived Thanos’ devastating final attack in Avengers: Infinity War—including Iron Man, Captain America, the Hulk, Thor, and Black Widow—are joined by newcomer Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) to turn the tables against him.

Knock Down the House (May 1, Netflix)

In 2018, a record 529 women ran for Congress. This documentary, which won the Festival Favorite Award at Sundance this year, follows four of them, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as they attempt to overcome skepticism and long odds on the campaign trial.

Long Shot (May 3)

For some reason, beautiful and impressive women, from characters played by Katherine Heigl to Rose Byrne to Elizabeth Banks, tend to fall in love with Seth Rogen in movies. The latest to do so is Charlize Theron’s Charlotte Field, the poised and intelligent U.S. Secretary of State running for president who hires Rogen’s schlubby journalist to punch up her speechwriting.

Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (May 3, Netflix)

This controversial film about Ted Bundy has received mixed reviews since its Sundance premiere, but Zac Efron has drawn raves for his shivering portrayal of the serial killer. Lily Collins plays Bundy’s girlfriend, who witnesses his descent into a steadily darkening place.

Wine Country (May 8, May 10 on Netflix)

A group of SNL pals—Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Ana Gasteyer, Paula Pell, and Emily Spivey—have been taking real-life vacations together for years. Those uproarious, disastrous trips served as the inspiration for this warm comedy, which is Poehler’s directorial debut.

Detective Pikachu (May 10)

The creatures of Pokémon invaded the real world three years ago thanks to Pokémon Go—but they lacked fur, scales or saliva. This quasi-live-action film, in which Ryan Reynolds voices Pikachu, imbues Pokémon with all of those physical attributes, making them alternately unsettling and adorable.

The Hustle (May 10)

Scam Season never ends. This remake of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels features one experienced con artist (Anne Hathaway) taking a small-time scammer (Rebel Wilson) under her wing, as they embark on a quest to swindle a tech billionaire. Hathaway slips into her British accent and sillier side.

Poms (May 10)

A group of legendary actresses (Diane Keaton, Pam Grier, Jacki Weaver and Rhea Perlman) play women in a retirement community who shake off rust and bad hips to form a cheerleading squad.

Tolkien (May 10)

The $1 billion Lord of the Rings Amazon series won’t arrive for awhile, but Tolkien fans can bide their time with this biopic starring Nicholas Hoult. The film presumably takes liberties, as many biopics do, with the writer’s life; Tolkien’s family recently issued a statement expressing their disapproval.

The Souvenir (May 17)

Two generations of Swintons appear in critical darling Joanna Hogg’s latest film, which premiered to raves at Sundance. A shy film student (Honor Swinton Byrne) enters into a turbulent and destructive relationship which threatens to throw her off her path. Her real-life mother Tilda Swinton plays her buttoned-up mother in the movie.

John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum (May 17)

The legend of Keanu Reeves has only seemed to deepen over time. He returns to play the title character of this cult-favorite franchise, which features plenty of exquisite hand-to-hand combat and canine love.

The Sun Is Also A Star (May 17)

Grown-ish star Yara Shahidi and Riverdale‘s Reggie Charles Melton play star-crossed lovers in this adaptation of the YA novel by Nicola Yoon.

Aladdin (May 24)

Disney hopes that the live-action reboot of its beloved animated take on the Middle Eastern folktale will be a huge hit. For better or worse, much of the recent discourse surrounding the film has centered on Will Smith’s bewildering body paint. “Will Smith as #Aladdin’s genie makes me want to uninvent CGI,” wrote one user on Twitter. Blue paint aside, the film itself looks like a splashy, effects-heavy take on the original.

Booksmart (May 24)

The trope of the Last High School Party has been told time and time again through the years—from Dazed and Confused to Superbad—but very rarely has it been seen through female eyes. Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut features two goodie-two-shoes seniors (played by Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever) as they attempt to leave high school with a bang.

Always Be My Maybe (May 29, May 31 on Netflix)

View this post on Instagram

#AlwaysBeMyMaybe comes out May 31st!

A post shared by Ali Wong (@aliwong) on Apr 23, 2019 at 8:00am PDT

Randall Park and Ali Wong play childhood best friends-turned lovers in this will-they-won’t-they rom-com. Look out for lots of delicious-looking food, a spot-on D’Angelo impression and a hysterical cameo from one of the superstars on this list.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters (May 31)

The mythical Japanese monster was given a jolt in 2014, when Gareth Edwards’ film was largely praised (though not in this magazine) for its jaw-dropping visuals and action sequences. The sequel features Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown and an array of leviathans and giant brutes.

Rocketman (May 31)

Ma (May 31)

Octavia Spencer has often been typecast as sweet or wearied characters, perhaps in part due to what she terms her “nurse face.” She is far more sinister in this new psychological thriller, in which she plays a woman who begins to terrorize a group of teenagers in small-town Ohio.

Deadwood: The Movie (May 31, HBO)

Fans of the HBO Western series have been begging for a reboot since the show was abruptly cancelled after three seasons.

Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese (June 12, Netflix)

From The Last Waltz to Shine a Light, Martin Scorsese has proven that few directors can match his ability to capture the intimacy and kinetic energy of a rock concert. Here, he turns his focus to Bob Dylan—whose life he explored in the 2005 documentary No Direction Home—and his legendarily freewheeling 1975-1976 tour, which featured appearances from Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez.

Shaft (June 14)

The third generation of “the black James Bond” arrives in the guise of Jessie Usher. He is joined by the Shafts who came before him: his father (played by Samuel L. Jackson) and grand-uncle (played by Richard Roundtree, the original Shaft). The last Shaft movie, released in 2000, was directed by the late director John Singleton.

Wild Rose (June 14)

A brash ex-convict and single mother from Glasgow, played by Jessie Buckley, strives to become a Nashville country star.

Child’s Play (June 21)

Mark Hamill, who in addition to playing Luke Skywalker is one of the great voice actors in film and television history for his Joker and other roles, lends his pliable vocal cords to another terrifying villain: Chucky. Aubrey Plaza plays a mother who gifts her son that unsettling doll before realizing it has started murdering people.

Toy Story 4 (June 21)

Woody, Buzz and the gang meet a new friend: a plastic spork with googly eyes and an existential crisis.

Crawl (July 12)

You’ll probably want to stay away from bodies of water after seeing Alexandre Aja’s latest horror flick. The film sees a daughter and father trapped inside a house during a hurricane—along with a teeming horde of alligators from the Florida Everglades.

Stuber (July 12)

Kumail Nanjiani is a nebbish Uber driver; Dave Bautista is a gassed-up cop. They bounce off each other in this 21st-century take on the odd-couple road trip.

The Lion King (July 19)

The big cats of this computer-generated, photorealistic remake of Disney’s animated classic have some new and famous voices: Donald Glover will voice Simba, while Beyoncé lends her pipes to Nala.

New Mutants (August 2)

Two months after Dark Phoenix, it’s the little Stark sister’s turn to plunge into the X-Men universe.

The movie is being billed, unlike its more action-oriented predecessors, as horror.

The latest Fast and Furious spinoff knows exactly what it is, and so do you: there will be fast cars, flying fists, hair-raising explosions, sweeping waterfront locales, and grandiose paeans to importance of family.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (August 9)

Guillermo del Toro loves his monsters, and especially the ones found in this book by Alvin Schwartz. Del Toro stumbled upon the series at a bookstore in Texas and was compelled to produce this adaptation; it will likely feature a handful of the series’ creepiest and most compelling tales.

The Kitchen (August 9)

Alison Cohen Rosa—Alison Cohen RosaElisabeth Moss, Melissa McCarthy and Tiffany Haddish in The Kitchen.

Sarfraz Manzoor was born thirty years after Bruce Springsteen and grew up more than three thousand miles away. But as a teenager, he came to realize that the existential dread of Thatcherite Britain closely mirrored the “death trap” of Springsteen’s New Jersey. This film, which Manzoor co-adapted from his memoir, Greetings from Bury Park, dramatizes the story of how he turned to The Boss’ music for escape and uplift.

Good Boys (August 16)

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg specialize in the hijinks of juvenile men. But this film, which they produced, might be their first since Superbad in which the characters’ maturity levels properly match their ages. It centers around three middle-schoolers as they enter the agonies and ecstasies of teeangerdom. Jacob Tremblay, one of the youngest Oscar nominees ever, gets in on their potty-mouthed humor.

Where’d You Go, Bernadette (August 16)

Maria Semple’s 2012 novel about a disappearing mother spent a year on the New York Times‘ bestseller list. Cate Blanchett stars in the titular role; Richard Linklater directs.
