[scifinoir2] Spidermn Unmasked in Front of Press
Marvel comics has come under fire from superhero fans for unmasking one of their stars at a fictional press conference. Enduring crusader Spider-Man unexpectedly takes off his mask in front of awaiting reporters and snappers at a Washington publicity call in Marvel's latest edition, revealing the identity he has battled to keep secret for 44 years. Peter Parker agrees to the unmasking after federal legislation requires super heroes register and reveal their identities in a crackdown inspired by the deaths of hundreds of children at an elementary school when a battle between heroes and villains spills onto their grounds. But Marvel's editor-in-chief Joe Quesada reassured disgruntled fans on Wednesday that the unprecedented move is a positive step for the comic adventures. He said, It is arguably the most shocking event in comic book history. It can be very intimidating if you don't know where the story is going or how it ends; we do, so we're just excited about where it takes us and the story possibilities it offers. http://www.imdb.com/news/wenn/2006-06-16/ Yahoo!

[scifinoir2] First Movie Ever Shot on a Cell Phone
For the first time, an entire theatrical documentary has been shot using a standard video cell phone, the Associated Press reported today (Thursday). The wire service said that the 93-minute Italian film New Love Meetings from co-directors Marcello Mencarini and Barbara Seghezzi features clips of interviews with about 100 people talking about their sex lives. (About 700 people were actually filmed.) To use a small instrument that belongs to people's daily routine allows you to establish an intimate dialogue, instead of using a regular camera, Seghezzi told the A.P. The interview becomes more like a chat. To offset the relatively low technical quality of the Nokia N90, the directors said they used mostly close-ups. The A.P. described the film as clear overall but that it appears slightly shaky. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Great things are happening at Yahoo! Groups.

Re: [scifinoir2] First Movie Ever Shot on a Cell Phone
NPR's On the Movies podcast did a special in this back in March. It's actually an up-and-coming type of indie field. There are lots of young would-be directors doing this, and some companies are toying around with the idea of sponsoring this on a wider basis. It would work most effectively, of course, for those who sit for 30 -45 minutes or so in mass transit situations, espeically the Japanese and Europeans. -- Original message -- From: Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L.

And in a related news story, Fox News reported that the spouses and romantic interests of super heroes can no longer get health and life insurance. Reportedly, the risk of injury or death by super villains is so high that the spouses and girlfriends/boyfriends of super heroes can no longer get insurance at affordable rates, if at all. Unnamed sources report that several super heroes are considering exiting the superhero business to take traditional office jobs, rather than disclose their identities and incur the increased risk to their spouses. If these rumors are true, many city police chiefs privately fear a rise in crime, which in turn could raise insurance rates -- and death rates -- for all citizens and business owners. Representative Ryun (Rep - Topeka, KS) plans to introduce a bill with special investment account rates for super heroes. We view super heroes as private contractors worthy of support like any small business, said Ryun. They should be able to invest in both retirement accounts and in health/life insurance plans.

Re: [scifinoir2] Spidermn Unmasked in Front of Press
I am looking forward to this. And I wonder what the rationale will be for the heroes who want to disclose their personal info. I know that Iron Man is one of those on the side for this (if I spoil, forgive me), and I wonder if he's thought this through. I mean, there are a dozen bad guys I could name off the top of my head who have, at one time or another, wanted IM's head on a stick. If the fact that he's Tony Stark when he's not in the armor were to get out, I could see Stark International employees being targeted right and left.
