Following a disastrous Hollywood foray, in which his next film Get to Know Your Rabbit was reedited by Warner Bros. at the behest of star Tom Smothers, De Palma returned to independent film. Both Blood Sisters and Phantom of the Paradise were tongue-in-cheek experiments in pure cinema and allowed De Palma to jettison the more dated hippie trappings of his earlier films. Obsession, an emotional alternative take on Vertigo scripted by Paul Schrader, seems less now a bold attempt to usurp Alfred Hitchcock than ...

The original Metal Gear debuted on the MSX2 computer in 1987 in Japan and Europe. The game was one of the first games, if not the first, in which using stealth was emphasized over direct confrontation with the enemy. This was due to the MSX hardware's limitations when it came to handling more conventional action games. Many of the series' trademark aspects were already present, including the wireless communicator used by the player's character. This game was later released ...

From the stylistic standpoint, Minority Report resembles A.I. more than E.T.. This is probably not coincidental since Spielberg began the project after finishing A.I. The film has a distinct blue sheen which gives the picture a bleaker look. Like A.I, Minority Report is among Spielberg's darker films. Minority Report is first and foremost a science fiction film. However, like Blade Runner and Dark City it mixes in elements of a number of different genres, particularly film noir, mystery, thriller and action / adventure. People have also no ...

Although the series has a war setting and is of the action genre, and thus contains large amounts of (occasionally graphic) violence, it has an underlying tone of pacifism. This is reflected throught the series which has dealt with such themes as the futility of war, the stupidity of nuclear deterrence, the dangers of nuclear weapons in general, the moral implications of genetic engineering and the concept that enemies are only enemies in relative terms. This tone and some of these themes reflect the mindset of a large amount of the Japa ...

Minority Report is set in Washington, DC during the year 2054. Thanks to three "precogs" and technology built around their ability to see murders before they happen, the city has gone six years without a homicide. The group making use of the precogs is called the "Department of Pre-Crime"; the police officers and detectives within the department are empowered to act on their foreknowledge, arresting people who are about to commit a murder, and imprisoning them without a trial in a "Hall of Containment" using technology even crueler th ...

His works explore themes of suspense and obsession, along with gender identity and the destructive nature of the male gaze. He is famous for his extensive use of split screen, split-diopter and process shots, and long tracking shots. His films also frequently feature characters changing their hair colour from blonde to brunette and vice versa. Critics of De Palma accuse him of being misogynistic and of emphasizing technical aspects of storytelling at the expense of human stories. These views, along with the charge of 'ripping off' var ...

The score was composed and conducted by John Williams, orchestrated by John Neufeld. The vocals were sung by Deborah Dietrich. The score is largely (though not entirely) athematic, featuring an unusually large amount of atmospheric or highly jarring "questionably-tonal" music, though certain centerpieces, such as the action cue "Anderton's Great Escape" are written in a more familiar idiom. Connections are often drawn between Williams approach and that of one of his strong compose ...

The reaction of fans and critics alike for Metal Gear Solid 3 was considerably higher than that received by Metal Gear Solid 2. Fans and critics who found MGS2's multitude of plot twists detrimental to the game experience found MGS3's storyline a pleasing throwback to the original Metal Gear Solid. On the other hand, supporters of MGS2's approach to storytelling found the new game's plot to be overly dumbed down, in an attempt to mold the game to mo ...
