	Silent Film Speed
		The historical fact is that more silent films were intended to be shown at speeds which were much closer to the sound projector's 11 minutes 6 2/3 seconds per reel than the legendary "silent speed" of 16 frames per second which drags the film along at sixteen minutes and forty seconds per reel.
		The operator "renders" a film, if he is a real operator, exactly as does the musician render a piece of music, in that, within limits, the action of the scene being portrayed depends entirely on his judgment....
		Film makers were aware of the growing tendency to speed up their pictures in projection.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Judgment Night \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		The rest of "Judgment Night" is basically a chase, with Leary and friends in hot pursuit of Estevez and friends.
		As with last year's Walter Hill thriller, "Trespass," "Judgment Night," written by Lewis Colick ("Unlawful Entry") and directed by Stephen Hopkins ("Predator 2," "A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Child"), plays on our collective urban paranoia, the nightmare of being stuck in a strange area, stalked by killers.
		"Judgment Night" is rated R for violence, profanity and vulgarity.

		Film is considered by many to be an important art form; films entertain, educate, enlighten and inspire audiences.
		Stock widths and the film format for images on the reel have had a rich history, though most large commercial films are still shot on (and distributed to theaters) as 35 mm prints.
		Film preservation of decaying film stock is a matter of concern to both film historians and archivists, and to companies interested in preserving their existing products in order to make them available to future generations (and thereby increase revenue).

	Judgment at Nuremberg (1961): Spencer Tracy, Burt Lancaster, Richard Widmark, Marlene Dietrich - PopMatters Film Review
		The plot of the film is structured as a typical courtroom melodrama.
		And yet, despite this certainty Janning finds that passing judgment on any one individual is difficult in the extreme, due to the complexity of her actions.
		Even after Judgment at Nuremberg self-righteously ends with the assertion that Germany as a whole should be indicted for its war crimes, since the ignorance of its people was "willful," the image of Madame Bertholt haunts the final frames, problematizing this answer.

	‘Judgment Night’ (R)
		It follows the travails of a quartet of self-satisfied suburban buddies on a boys' night out to a downtown boxing match; trying to dodge a traffic jam in their rented camper, they drive astray into "the ghetto." What they find is that it's an urban jungle in there, one they are ill-equipped to handle.
		Since the action is mostly night-rooted, the film is very dark as it moves from back alleys and abandoned freight cars, down through sewers and up to tenement rooftops.
		"Judgment Night" is rated R and contains graphic violence and explicit language.

	"Judgment" / review and/or viewer comments - Christian Spotlight on the Movies
		“Judgment” is the fourth installment in the best-selling Christian end-times dramas begun in 1998 with Apocalypse.
		Judgment is a courtroom drama, and as such there is many opportunities for good topics to be brought up and discussed from both sides--skeptics and Christians.
		However, I would recommend this film for teens and up due to the violence (some shooting, several displays of hatred, explosions, and a knife-point attack) and subject matter at hand.

	UCLA TV Violence Monitoring Project: Home Box Office (HBO)
		Seventeen films were monitored in the two-week sample and, of these, eight would raise concerns about violence if run on broadcast television.
		This film provides a fascinating opportunity to study differences between pay cable and the broadcast networks because it ran on both HBO and ABC this past season and each showing was monitored separately.
		This film did contain many violent scenes, including the consistent repetition of a rape on a conference table, the key scene in the film.

		Encounter Point, an incredible documentary that follows a former Israeli settler, a Palestinian ex-prisoner, a bereaved Israeli mother and a wounded Palestinian bereaved brother who risk their lives and public standing to promote a nonviolent end to the conflict, is opening in select cities in the US and the Middle East tomorrow.
		The film tends to wear its message on its sleeve, but a cast of colorful characters (including one of the more adorable on-screen romances of all time) plus unspoken parallels between the short-lived EV-era and the demise of the LA Red Car keep it moving.
		The deliciously campy (and sweetly sincere) fan film was wildly impressive at times -- both in its faithful execution of sets, stunts and special effects (all funded with teenage allowances) and its clever substitutions (a motorboat for a seaplane; a well-trained puppy for a monkey).

	INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS
		Many have pointed to the film as a wonderful allegory for creeping Communism, others take the opposite point of view and say it's representative of the paranoid creeping McCarthyism that had swept the nation only a few years before.
		The word entered his daily speech, and came to be a curse used to describe anyone Siegel was frustrated with, anyone whose life was on automatic pilot, who did things the easy, comfortable way, or who stood in the way of progress or creativity.
		According to Siegel, the special effects budget on the film was a luxurious $15,000.

	Judgment Night - DVD Film: Totaltiorden.dk (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Plot: A group of four friends decide to take a shortcut through a ghetto on their way to a boxing game and end up witnessing the execution of a man by a ruthless gangster and his cronies after having wrecked their van.
		The characters are one-dimensional and with noncomplex personalities, so anyone who is expecting a movie with the sort of social commentary, outstanding performances, and incredible dialogue found in movies by directors such as Tarantino and Scorcese won't find anything but cheap thrills here.
		Actually, I found it hard to believe that a gangster would bother himself by chasing down a group of yuppies through a ghetto wasteland, risking his own life as well as those of his cronies, when he could just as easily gone to their houses after having found Estevez's characters driver's license in his wallet.

	The Chumscrubber (2005)
		It is a film that must actually be seen to appreciate the subtle surrealism it employs to maintain the point of view of a troubled teenager appalled by the actions of the people surrounding him.
		From the beginning of the film in which Jamie Bell's character Dean discovers his best friend's hanging body and leaves without informing anyone, it is quite apparent the detachment that exists between the teenagers and the adults.
		I was surprised to hear this - it is quite apparent from the several elements of surrealism in the film that it is not meant to be an accurate portrayal of reality.

	Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
		In the first film, the Terminator was animated as an armature model unlike the second Terminator that was a computer-generated image.
		It was also the first film in history to cost $100 million to produce.
		As the above voice-over introduces the main context for the film and the major characters, the camera pans in on the figure of John Connor, the rebel, freedom-forces leader, who scans the combat with night-vision binoculars.

	About Us
		The Film Forum started in the fall of 2005 and a year later now is running its third consecutive season.
		It is dedicated to the discussion of films that do not only delight us in the spectacular ways cinema most naturally does but also leave us puzzled, challenged, unsettled, or even irritated.
		The films we show tend to be the kind that are, in a certain sense, not seen until they are viewed at a second time or several times, yet also provide a great experience at first viewing.

	12 ANGRY MEN
		No surprise that this year’s tribute to the character actor includes this film, which is a veritable feast of the best that stage or screen had to offer in the mid 1950s.
		Lumet and Kaufman decided on a two-tiered visual plan to bring the audience into the psychological action of this film, which is essentially a courtroom drama with no courtroom (all of the action takes place in the jury room, as the jury decides the fate of the defendant after the trial).
		The middle portion of the film is shot fairly much at eye-level, and as the jurors begin challenging each other, we as the audience are almost challenging them, and are being challenged also, eye to eye.

	Wallo World
		Although Alain Silver suggests that since the first edition of his book in 1977, interest in samurai film has “increased significantly: from almost nothing to a small amount,” the iconic image of a single swordsman struggling with honor and identity has resonated far beyond the borders of Japan.
		While some films utilize voice over narration in an effort to give audiences a glimpse of a character’s inner monologue, only a few films successfully incorporate the technique.
		Instead, film presents it audiences with the same sort of dilemma we have in the so-called “real world.” We are really only able to understand a cinematic character’s motivations by what they do, and perhaps by what they say (or the subtext of what they’re saying).

	Film: My Architect: A Son's Journey
		It may not be there in everyone, but a son's impulse to know his father, to really understand who his father is (or was), certainly is not unusual.
		The film begins with the grim circumstances of Louis Kahn's death in 1974.
		He's less interested in passing judgment on his father's behaviour than in understanding it and putting it in some kind of context.

	Judgment Night 2 Part 1 « 20/20Proof
		The result was the extremely lackluster soundtrack to the film Judgment Night, which I have been fortunate enough to never witness.
		While I am not asking for a sequel to Judgment Night, I do think there needs to be another shot at combining rappers with groups outside of the genre.
		Joseph is capable of forming a one man band when performing live and is able to create songs on the spot by looping whatever he plays, be it a beat off his guitar or a hook.

	Bright Lights Film Journal \| Citizen Kane
		In the attendant article to this one, I mentioned Welles’ assertion that Howard Hughes was one of the original models for a film originally entitled “The American” that became Citizen Kane.
		The destructive nature of his quest to manage the public — via the opera career of his second wife, Susan — calcified Kane’s character and worked to isolate him from all that made him alive (Welles’ own quest for independence all but assured that his movies would be either unfinished or poorly distributed).
		For starters, the audience is acutely not cognizant that the film comes from the mind of one of the characters.

	Silvestri: Judgment Night
		Scores for major films, or scores for minor films which were written by major composers, were often released, with occasional releases of classic scores from the past, usually in the form of straight reissues of old vinyl albums.
		I find this to be quite ironic because it's easily the least interesting score they've released as part of that series (at least, of the ones I've heard) and so it's strange indeed that it seemed to generate more excitement amongst the film music community than their other releases.
		It's all terribly effective stuff and I would imagine it works wonders in the film, but it's not musical enough to be of any interest on a CD.

		The soundtrack is this obscure quality of the music industry, which is typically an instrument to further the commercialization of a film; yet, on occasion, the soundtrack can transcend it's commercial role.
		In 1993, when the Judgment Night soundtrack was released, it met with great success.
		In 1997, the Spawn soundtrack was released, which took the ideas of Judgment Night, but combined rock musicians, like Filter and Soul Coughing, and paired them up with the larger names in electronic music, such as Prodigy and The Crystal Method.

	Review: Judgment Night (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		It's night in Chicago and four good buddies -- Frank (Emilio Estevez), Mike (Cuba Gooding Jr.), Ray (Jeremy Piven), and John (Stephen Dorff) -- are using an oversized RV borrowed by Ray as transportation to a boxing match.
		This film plods along at a stultifyingly slow pace, threatening to lull its audience to sleep with long stretches of inactivity followed by bursts of poorly-choreographed fights and flights.
		As it stands, however, the best judgment I can pass on this movie is an exceedingly harsh one.

		If the world remembers the Porky's movies at all, it remembers them as precursors of the American Pie films -- way stations between Animal House and the most recent crop of movies that encourage us to laugh at young people and their obsession with their genitals.
		The more savvy film lover may remember Porky's 2: The Next Day for its genre-defying scenes of intellectual debate over sexuality in Shakespeare and the Bible, as well as a very genre-defying, straightforward scene of lovable virgin Pee-Wee performing a Puck monologue from A Midsummer Night's Dream.
		Judgment Night paired 11 alt-rock acts with 10 hip-hoppers (Cypress Hill performs with both Sonic Youth and Pearl Jam) and just sat back to see what would happen.

		But given this admission, the film still functions pretty darn well as a kind of proto-Indiana Jones vehicle.
		Once upon a time, our ancestors believed in a hollow Earth, where "the junction of the magnetic forces from the south pole and the north pole" would open a gateway to lost horizons.
