The Tartarus Invasion
Director- James Cameron
James Cameron has directed many great films including Aliens, Titanic, Terminator series, and the recent box office hit Avatar. He has already directed a space themed movie (Aliens) as well as numerous action movies (Terminator, Avatar). Cameron has impressive work with special effects and with computer graphics as seen in Avatar. As a bonus he has experience with 3-D, so if desired my film could be in 3-D.

Cast
Inquisitor Xavier (Tartuffe)- Tim Curry Tim Curry is a versatile actor, capable of comedy and straight face acting. His facial structure also lends him to be capable of creepy faces and innocent faces. That’s why he is perfect for this

The Inquisitor doesn’t believe him and goes to open the “portal”. Grandmaster Cervantes realizes what the Inquisitor is about to do and shoots him with his plasma pistol. As Inquisitor Xavier is dying he manages to finish the last ritual required to open the “portal” and the rift opens. The Inquisitor dies and the Tempest Knights and Grey Knights must fight the daemons and the other Chaos forces while trying to reclose the rift. After a long and bloody battle the Space Marines are finally triumphant and save Tartarus from certain destruction.
There are many ways The Tartarus Invasion differs from the original version. One of them is that there is no romance and the “back stabbing” is not for money. Also the Inquisitor really believes he is correct but yet it still being hypocritical. The ways that The Tartarus Invasion are similar are that the Governor really believes in the Inquisitor and tries to convince everyone else to believe him too. The Captain is the hot head that yells and argues forcefully while the Chaplain is the voice of reason that calmly discuses

This is where the situation about the invasion will be explained and the best course of action discussed. This is also one of the places Captain Furion will get upset and Chaplain Kelvar will try and calm things down. Another scene is on the Tempest Knights Thunder Hawk. This large space craft not only transports the chapter to where they are needed but it also serves as their quarters during ground missions. These scenes would have more arguing about the Inquisitors plans and more discussing about how to fix

    His film type is usually is relevant with the idea of guilt and redemption. And also modern crime. He makes movies that usually have a very energetic, profanity filled, and an arrogant protagonist. Although Scorcese has a lot of critics he is nominated for an Oscar every single time he makes a movie which is why he is arguably the greatest filmmaker of all time. A man who is just starting to get known in the filmmaking industry is Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu. Inarritu was born in Mexico and has brought his own experiences into his movies. The thing that makes Inarritu so great and original is his cinematography skills. Inarritu is the epitome of a great cinematographer. His movies are so beautifully shot that the moviegoer doesn’t even need 3D to be amazed. For example his most recent movie “The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance” is made to make you think it is a two-hour continuous shot. But in reality it is made to look that way through masterful editing techniques. His movies are also extremely original and artsy. He is not well known but he has won an academy award for “Best motion picture of the year.” These four filmmakers are the epitome of what it takes to make movies…

    Ridley Scott’s Alien provides us with one of the most basic and primal super-objectives: the preservation life. Our protagonist, Ellen Ripley, faces impossible odds as a seemingly invincible alien predator wreaks havoc on the crew of the Nostromo, taking them out one by one until she is the last man (or in this case, woman) standing. In most every horror, or as Blake Snyder would call it, “Monster in the House” film, the super-objective is to preserve life. Some, however, are more successful than others in conveying that idea, and Alien is perhaps the most triumphant of the bunch. The screenwriter, Dan O’Bannon, heavily juxtaposed the frailty of man with the invincibility of the alien. Neither bullets, nor electricity, nor fire can harm the creature, while it possesses a variety of methods of attack, from corrosive blood to razor sharp teeth. Therein lies the strength of the film’s super-objective: though the alien could easily kill them all, Ripley fights to survive.…

    • 4 Pages

    Tartuffe has fooled nobody but Orgon – the man who has the power and wealth in this situation. The characters in this play all play a certain role in the plot. Elmire, Orgon's wife, presents a reasonable attitude towards life and the situation. She was the only one able to convince Orgon to see for himself that Tartuffe was a hypocrite. She wants nothing but to save her husband from Tartuffe's control. Damis, Orgon's son, is the unlucky soul to take the blame for his father's misjudgment of Tartuffe. In trying to help his father, he loses his trust and his ties to him. He wants to keep Tartuffe away from his family, but the only thing he succeeds in doing is losing his inheritance.

He tries to get everyone to view the situation with calm and reason. He wants the best for Orgon and his family. Tartuffe is the imposter who weasels his way into Orgon's inheritance and then betrays him. He is only looking for the money and is a very greedy man.

    Alien Movie Analysis

    How about we begin by addressing the elephant in the room: Ridley Scott has been in a slump for the past decade or more. In 1979 he redefined the space film with Alien, in 1982 he crafted his gritty science fiction masterwork Blade Runner, and in 2000 he won the Academy Award for Best Picture with Gladiator. Obviously, a stunning repertoire, but what has he directed since then? Mediocre film after mediocre film. Whether it be Kingdom of Heaven, Robin Hood, Prometheus, or The Counselor, Scott has been far from par for as long as I can remember. And Hollywood being a "what have you done for me lately" type of town, you can understand the misgivings I had when I bought my ticket to see his latest effort. Much to my extremely pleasant surprise, The Martian is Ridley's return…

    It is hard to imagine a person who has not heard of Steven Spielberg. He is one of the most renown, if not the most renown, American filmmakers of the century. His films have captivated and helped develop imaginations of contemporary society and remain among the most successful films ever made. Spielberg was born in Cincinnati on December 18th, 1946. His father was an electrical engineer, and his mother a concert pianist. Steven seemed to get the best elements from both of them. Spielberg had an early fascination with cinema and began making amateur films at a very young age. At 13, he won a local contest for his 40-minute film, Escape to Nowhere. Ironically, Steven was unable to get into a film school, so he settled for majoring in English…

    In a class lecture, the professor pointed out that the word/name Tartuffe means hypocrite, which can easily be seen as the drama unfolds. Early in the story, the audience learns that Tartuffe has a sleazy talent to receive piety in Orgon's household. In Act I, it is implied that Orgon has offered his daughter's hand in for marriage to Tartuffe, although Damis, Orgon's son, believes that Tartuffe does not wish to do so. Damis states, "I think Tartuffe's against it, and that he's been urging Father to withdraw his blessing" (Tartuffe 1.2.8-9). At this point, it is obvious to see that Orgon has a lot of respect for Tartuffe, although others may think differently. Cleante, Orgon's brother in law, is shown as the voice of reason and questions Orgon by saying,…

    Definition of a True Hero

    • 7 Pages

    When it comes to Tartuffe, the true heroes were the king, Dorine, Elmire, Damis, and Cleante. They are my heroes in this literary work because they see right through the hypocrite, false Tartuffe and expose him. Thus Dorine says, “You see him as a saint. I’m far less awed; In fact, I see right through him. He’s a fraud.” (Tartuffe, 1.1.23). Unlike Madam Pernell and Orgon, the others were never quite fooled. “Good God! Do you expect me to submit to the tyranny of that carping hypocrite? Must we forgo all joys and satisfactions because that bigot censures all our action?” (Tartuffe, 1.1.18), said Damis in response to Orgon viewing their behavior as inappropriate. He came right out and said what everyone else was thinking.…
