Malachi Martin

Malachi Martin

Malachi Brendan Martin (23 July 1921 – 27 July 1999), also known under the pseudonym of Michael Serafian, was an Irish-born American Traditionalist Catholic priest, biblical archaeologist, exorcist, palaeographer, professor, and prolific writer on the Roman Catholic Church.

Ordained as a Jesuit priest, Martin became Professor of Palaeography at the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome. From 1958, he served as secretary to Cardinal Augustin Bea during preparations for the Second Vatican Council. Disillusioned by Vatican II, Martin asked to be released from certain aspects of his Jesuit vows in 1964 and moved to New York City.

Martin's 17 novels and non-fiction books were frequently critical of the Catholic hierarchy, who he believed had failed to act on what he called "the Third Prophecy" revealed by the Virgin Mary at Fátima.<ref name="Corley" /> His works included "The Scribal Character of The Dead Sea Scrolls" (1958) and "Hostage To The Devil" (1976) which dealt with Satanism, demonic possession, and exorcism. "The Final Conclave" (1978) was a warning against Soviet espionage in the Vatican.

Gregory Paul Martin

Martin is also a screenwriter. While in the U.S. in the 1980s and 1990s he wrote and sold two Hollywood screenplays, but the films did not end up getting produced. Following a failed whirlwind engagement to socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson in 1999 that made headlines, Martin penned a tongue-in-cheek send-up of his romantic life titled Dirty Rotten Scoundrel. In the book's online retail product description, he stated "I wrote this book as a satire of an ugly image foisted on me by the British tabloids during the summer of 1999, and was  never intended to be taken seriously.  I take it as an oddly flattering compliment people assumed the character was really me." Martin is a professional astrologer as well. In early 2019 he published the book Watch It Come Down, detailing a death-and-rebirth cycle of the United States.

Elio García and Linda Antonsson head the A Song of Ice and Fire fansite Westeros.org. George R. R. Martin enlisted them in 2006 to assist with the project, which at the time he believed would be finished by 2008. García is a Martin "superfan" whom the author and HBO have consulted on details previously established by Martin in the series. The book's planned length was 50,000 words, but historical references collected by García and Antonsson from the books amounted to 70,000, and after Martin "polished it, expanded it and fill in the holes" it became 100,000 words. Martin also started writing "sidebar" stories for the book but at one point he realized he had written 350,000 more words. As this did not fit the original concept of a fully illustrated book—the number of illustrations remaining the same—Martin removed

Soul (2020 film)

Soul is a 2020 American computer-animated comedy-drama film produced by Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures. It was directed by Pete Docter, co-directed by Kemp Powers, and produced by Dana Murray, from a screenplay by Docter, Powers, and Mike Jones. The film stars the voices of Jamie Foxx, Tina Fey, Graham Norton, Rachel House, Alice Braga, Richard Ayoade, Phylicia Rashad, Donnell Rawlings, Questlove, and Angela Bassett. It follows a pianist, Joe Gardner (Foxx), who is killed in an accident before his big break as a jazz musician and seeks to reunite his separated soul and body.

Docter conceived "Soul" in January 2016, examining the origins of human personalities and the concept of determinism. He pitched the idea about spacetime involving souls with personalities, during his first meeting with Jones. The film's producers consulted various jazz musicians, including Herbie Hancock and Terri Lyne Carrington, and animated its musical sequences using the sessions of musician Jon Batiste as a reference. Apart from Batiste's original jazz compositions, musicians Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross composed the film's score. Production on "Soul" lasted for four years on an approximate $150million budget. This was the first Pixar film to feature a black lead.

"Soul" premiered at the London Film Festival on October 11, 2020, and was scheduled to be theatrically released on June 19 and November 20. However, the feature was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. "Soul" was released direct-to-streaming on Disney+ on December 25, 2020, and in theaters in countries without the streaming service. "Soul" was well-received by critics for its craftsmanship, story, characters, and musical score. Organizations like the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute named the film as one of the top ten films of 2020. "Soul" was nominated for three awards at the 93rd Academy Awards, winning two, and received numerous other accolades.

Before the genre peaked in the early 1900s, authors such as Owen Wister and Sir Walter Scott paved the way for the rise of the Western Romance genre.

The other is The Mysterious West, a less weighty book, with "20 short stories, primarily mystery and detective fiction", each introduced by Tony Hillerman.

Spider-Verse

Spider-Verse

"Spider-Verse" is a 2014–15 comic book storyline published by Marvel Comics. It features multiple alternative versions of Spider-Man that had appeared in various media, all under attack by Morlun and his family, the Inheritors. The event was touted as including every single living spider-powered individual created up to that point, while also introducing many new ones. There were several notable exceptions however, such as the Spider-Man from the television series "The Spectacular Spider-Man" unable to appear due to copyright restrictions.

The comic book series received generally positive reviews. Following the conclusion of the event in "Amazing Spider-Man" #14, several characters introduced in it such as Spider-Gwen, the Spider-Woman of Earth-65, were featured in titles of their own. Several of the Spider-Men from this event reunited for the second volume of "Spider-Verse" set during the "Secret Wars" and continued to operate together in the "Web Warriors" series. The 2017 event "Venomverse" was structured in a similar way to Spider-Verse, featuring alternative versions of Venom instead. In 2018, a direct sequel to "Spider-Verse" titled "Spider-Geddon" was released. A conclusion to the "Spider-Verse" storyline—titled "End of the Spider-Verse"—is scheduled to begin later in 2022, following the release of the "Edge of Spider-Verse" series in August 2022 which introduces even more new alternate versions of Spider-Man.<ref name=":2" />

The idea of bringing together alternate versions of Spider-Man was also explored in various video games and the "Ultimate Spider-Man" animated series, with the 2018 animated film "" and its sequels "" (2023) and "Beyond the Spider-Verse" (2024), serving as a loose adaptation of this story arc. The 2021 Marvel Cinematic Universe film "" also took inspiration from this idea, featuring all three live-action movie versions of Peter Parker.

As part of the 2014 "Spider-Verse" event, Spider-Woman began her third ongoing series, written by Dennis Hopeless.

The book was published in 2002, and was written by James Wyatt, with cover art by Todd Lockwood and interior art by Scott Fischer, Rebecca Guay, Vince Locke, Raven Mimura, Puddnhead, Christopher Shy, Ben Templesmith, and Sam Wood. Rich Baker commented on how the adventure was developed: "James [Wyatt] and I were present in the original planning sessions with Bob Salvatore, Richard Byers, Thomas Reid, and Phil Athans as the whole War of the Spider Queen plan was hammered out, so the game guys and book guys were able to put together a common plot that everyone was happy with. That said, we hit an early snag when we realized that the adventure's original setting would give away the plot of the second book in the War of the Spider Queen series, but James came up with an alternate location for the adventure that worked even better than the original site."

Amazon (video game)

Best-selling novelist and director Michael Crichton was a computer hobbyist who taught himself the programming language BASIC. In the early 1980s he, programmer Stephen Warady, and artist David Durand began developing an Apple II graphic adventure game based on Crichton's novel Congo; he sometimes programmed game sequences which Warady converted into much faster assembly language. They worked on the project for 18 months and, before Crichton found a publisher, Spinnaker Software approached him about adapting his novels for its Telarium division's new "bookware" games. The author revealed the game, amazing Spinnaker, and signed a contract in late 1983. Crichton did not realize, however, that he had already sold all adaptation rights to Congo to another party. The team revised the game (renamed Amazon), moving the setting from Africa to South America and changing a diamond mine to an emerald mine; the novel's Amy the talking gorilla became Paco the talking parrot. Because the game was mostly complete, Telarium was able to port it to the Commodore 64 before Amazons release. Crichton later said that he was disappointed with the game due to technological limitations at the time of its development.

The letter, dated 2014, claims that Amazon was boycotting authors whose books appeared under these publishers, by not keeping enough copies in storage. Books from these publishing houses, according to the signatories, were being delivered slowly and omitted from Amazon’s recommendations. The letter further accused Amazon of giving the impression to customers that it didn’t interfere with book sales in this manner

Amazon Adventure

Dorothy Hinman, reviewing the book for Elementary English in February 1950, wrote:"The authentic experiences presented by Willard Price in this account of a trip through the Amazon jungle in themselves would offer to an adult sufficient excitement. The author's addition of the mystery and his too free use of coincidence to extricate the characters from every predicament of danger make most of the story unconvincing [...] But for the upper-grade boy ‒ the more excitement, danger, and mystery the better. He will likely judge this a rousing good adventure story."English author Anthony McGowan, who revived the Adventure series in 2012, has cited Amazon Adventure as the series' best entry "from a literary point of view".

Anthony Smith (explorer)

Shoumatoff established himself as "consistently one of the farthest-flung of the New Yorker's far-flung correspondents", as The New York Times described him, and he wrote pieces on pygmies in the Ituri Forest, lemurs of Madagascar, and traced the legend of Amazon women to a tributary of the Amazon called the Nhamunda, which no white person had visited since a Frenchman in 1890.
