《Artbook》The Fall (2006)
Advertisement
Der Film lief vor Jahren mal auf Arte, als ich ihn zum ersten Mal gesehen hab. Ich war zehn oder jünger und total überwältigt - leider hatte ich mir weder den Titel noch die Namen der Schauspieler gemerkt, weswegen ich ihn die Jahre darauf aus den Augen verloren hab.
Ein paar Jahre später kam dann Der Hobbit in die Kinos, und als ich Thranduil gesehen hab, hat irgendetwas klick gemacht.
Lee Pace spielt in The Fall (von Tarsem Singh) keinen Elbenkönig, sondern Roy Walker, einen Hollywood-Stuntman, der nach einem Unfall im Krankenhaus liegt, verlassen von seiner Geliebten und seinem Lebenswillen. Im Krankenhaus trifft er die kleine Alexandria, der er bei jedem Besuch eine Geschichte von fünf Helden erzählt, die sich gemeinsam auf den Weg machen, um Rache an ihrem Erzfeind zu nehmen. Doch der an Depressionen leidende Roy will ihr die Geschichte nur zu Ende erzählen, wenn sie ihm heimlich eine tödliche Dosis Morphium bringt.
Der Film ist bestimmt nicht jedermanns Sache, aber ich kann meine Liebe zu diesem Meisterwerk wirklich kaum in Worte fassen. Die Philosophie dahinter, die Charaktere, die Kulissen, die Musik - mir hat selten etwas so sehr aus der Seele gesprochen wie The Fall. In den Rezensionen steht häufig, dass er etwas seltsam und kompliziert ist, aber sobald man die Bedeutung einmal verstanden hat, ist er einfach nur... berührend. Und die Botschaft dieses Films ist so so wertvoll.
Es geht um die Magie von Geschichten, um kindliche Fantasie, und darum, wie beides uns helfen kann, uns die Welt zu erschließen und einen Sinn im Leben zu finden. Der Film tut weh, aber auf eine gute Art.
~~~
Die Zeichnung (Buntstift und Gouache auf schwarzem Papier) ist recht klein, und daher auch nicht sonderlich definiert. Ich fand den Screenshot einfach recht hübsch - mir gefällt total, wie in dem Film mit Kontrasten und Farben gearbeitet wird. Und die Kostüme von Eiko Ishioka sind einfach spitze. Ich könnte wirklich ein ganzes Artbook allein mit Skizzen zu dem Film füllen, würde mich meine Faulheit nicht davon abhalten, hehe.

Die restlichen Bilder sind dann auch eigentlich nur noch ein paar schnelle Zeichnungen/Skizzen:
Mich würde so interessieren, ob den Film jemand von euch kennt, denn er ist wirklich die Definition von underrated und einer meiner absoluten Lieblinge. Und falls ihr den nicht kennt, hoff ich, dass euch wenigstens die Bilder gefallen, hehe.
Für Interessierte verlinke ich hier drunter mal den Trailer, mal sehn ob es klappt.
Das war's dann auch mal wieder von mir - habt eine wunderschöne Woche, ihr Lieben. :3

Restart (Reborn as a Reluctant Demon Lord, Book 2)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is book 2 of the series! If you haven't read book 1 (which you can find here https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/34776/new-game-reborn-as-a-reluctant-demon-lord-book) then you should probably do that first to avoid spoiling yourself in the synopsis. But that's just a suggestion. If you want to be confused, go ahead. Have I used enough space so that you can't see this in the preview yet? Okay, good. ----- For a [Demon Lord], not even death is the end. So, after death, I found myself revived once again in the world of Placeholder as a grotesque monstrosity. That was my first reincarnation, but it would not be anywhere near my last. Disillusioned with the admins and their quests, and wanting nothing more than to fix the mistakes of my past, I set out with a new goal in mind. To bring back the woman I loved. Or maybe... to ensure that she never died in the first place.

Spellcraft
This is the revised and rewritten version of Spellcraft! Explore the world, meet new and interesting monsters, and kill them for their loot. It was a tale as old as gaming, and it bored Conlan to death. He always had more fun finding little chinks in a game’s systems. He loved figuring out how to exploit those systems and turn them to his advantage. And ever since the release of Lotus, revolutionary hardware that finally delivered the dream of stepping into a fully immersive VR world, he'd had more items on his game breaking agenda than ever before! Lately he’d been using those skills to mess with Horizon Online Entertainment. He figured screwing those bastards over was the least he owed the corporate pricks for killing his sister in one of their Lotus VR modules. They had too much money to face justice from the courts, but he was hellbent on destroying them in the court of public opinion! Only there’s only so much he can do to fight Horizon from inside their games, and a whole new digital battlefield is opening up: Lotus Online. The greatest and most immersive VRMMO ever created, the ultimate expression of the Lotus hardware made by the masters who created that hardware, and Horizon is trying to invade that new world and take it over the same as they’ve taken over everything else! Yeah, not if Conlan and his best gaming buddy Kris have anything to say about it. Because Conlan has a secret weapon. He’s discovered something in Lotus no one else has: Spellcrafting. The chink in Lotus’s armor. He's always loved crafting, and he's discovered a system that might just allow him to take over the game world, kick Horizon out, and hit them right in the bottom line in the real world. Assuming he can survive all the invading Horizon bootlickers trying to kill him long enough to pull off the greatest exploit of his infamous game breaking career! Spellcraft is a 225,000 word GameLit novel that is totally finished. New chapters are released every other day!

Path of the Golden Average
It's the beginning of a new school year, and Ethan Burkhardt has finally accomplished his greatest goal. Inrollment at an HCP (Hero Certification Progam) in Chicago, Illinois. Sizemore Tech might not have been his first choice, but they were the only ones willing to accept his application. Now, he just has to endure 4 years of brutal testing. The good news: He won't be alone. An entire class of strangers will be thrown together, young men and women all with the dream of becoming licensed Heros. They will be forced to either sink or swim (sometimes literally), but for most, their greatest challenge will be each other. The bad news: Someone is working behind the scenes, manipulating people and events towards some unknown goal. Are they on the side of the students? Or are they preparing to bring down the next generation of heroes before they can even graduate? A story based in the world of Drew Hayes "SuperPowereds" Series, this is my attempt at a fan-fiction that holds very close to the canonical worldbuilding already done. I hope you enjoy.
