Simplicity is the key to our power as filmmakers. Finding the simplest solution to telling the story is what creates astonishing images which resonate with truth. We see it in great movies all the time. The shots of the plane speeding through the air and breaking the sound barrier in The Right Stuff was a model plane that the crew launched with a slingshot, and Caleb Deschanel, ASC had the operator try to follow it with a handheld camera; Mario Bava creating an entire alien planet for Planet of the Vampires by using some dry ice fog and only two rocks which he shot in forced perspective; and the seaside created inside the studio for Cannery Row using waving plastic.
[…]
On the show I am currently executive producing, directing and shooting for Netflix, Avatar: The Last Airbender, much of the show is shot on the largest virtual production stage in the world. The visual effects artists working on the volume images are the top in their field, and the reality that they can achieve is truly astounding. But I felt it was important to keep an element of unreality to make the results more organic. And so, for the very first shot on the first day of filming, which was a shot of a boat with two passengers getting swept into a massive ice cave on a wave of water and crashing into an ice shelf, I added a bit of magic: the ice cave walls were in virtual production, the ice shelf was a practical set piece, and the wave of water was a four-foot trough placed in the foreground of the camera with a split diopter filter in front of the lens. Two special effects technicians dumped buckets of water into the trough as grips and stunt riggers pulled the boat on cables across the floor. The resulting image combined the elements of different specialties to create a new reality that enhanced the fantasy of what was happening.

I love time travel, soo lets do this (btw this is what I interpret is what happened in Eden)
PT 1: Time travel AU
Adam died and wakes back to Eden, only this time it wasn't at the very start. No. It was the time wherein Lilith and Lucifer started getting to know each other.
Secretly meeting up, Lilith avoiding Adam, and Lucifer distracting Adam by appointing duties.
If this was the Adam before, before the whole apple free-well, before the 900 years of trying to stay alive on Earth with his wife Eve, before a millenia or so of living in Heaven witnessing the horrors of Earth and killing his own decendants then he'd feel betrayed, hurt.
But he can't, because this time, oh this time. Adam has a plan. Everyone seems to assume that Adam can't think of plans, but Adams had years of experience and a hoard of brutal bad bitches to respect him, for a reason.
A little out of pocket and unappropriate comments doesn't change that.
Since this Lucifer isn't violent compared to the Lucifer Adam knew in the future then it won't matter how disrespectful he'd be to him.
Now here comes the plan. All Adam had to do was simple really. Nothing. Well not nothing. Specifically he'll act like he still has the hots for Lilith, let them get together and once he gets Eve, teach Eve about snakes.
If Even still eats the apple then Adam won't be fooled. The only reason Adam ate that damned apple was because he didn't want to lose Eve.
But eternal paradise vs a wife he forcefully won't love, bitch it aint rocket science. Besides, even without humanity Adam already knows shit, shit thats relevant like who tf wants jazz? From now on the only songs Adam will sing would be rock. Speaking of rock.
Adam misses his guitar.
He needs to ask an angel to poof him one or something. Making one takes time, not to mention he'd have to make the materials to make one.
Other than Lucifer, the only ones who actually visit would be Michael, rare, and Sera even rarer.
Adam paced in circles, unaware of the baby ducks following behind.
"ADAM!"
"Jesu-- Jezz!" Adam snapped his gaze to the figure in front of him and glared at the Angel.
"Sorry . . . Its just . . . Are you okay?" Lucifers wings shifted unused to the glare presented to him. Adams never looked at him like that before. It was . . . unnerving.
Adam eased his glare, relaxing his shoulders just a tad bit before presenting a wide grin.
"Lucifer!" Adam raised both his arms walking towards Lucifer to engulf him in a hug. Eugh. "I had a . . . dream? Yes I'll call it a dream. I had a dream of playing an instrument of sorts, one that has multiple vines attached to it, I think? And whenever I pull these vines I can create sounds, not just any sounds, but sounds that have melody"
Lucifer brightned up, dreams! Adams having dreams. This could only mean that Adam would soon seek and eat the forbiden fruit. Now he didn't have to keep pressuring Adam, now all three of them would explore what's around Earth, find free will, and create unimaginable ideas.
Granted he has to figure out how to make Lilith and Adam become civil with each other. But he can work on that after the apple.
Adam shifted both of his arms ontop the angels shoulder waiting for his response. C'mon fucker answer.
"Well those could be the instrument harp Sera's always been fond of" Lucifer laughed out, wrapping his arms around the first mans waist.
Tsk
"Ah really? But these are held different"
Lucifer in his current happy mood, didn't register the implications of Adams words. Instead he laughed again "How else would you hold a string instrument, unless we're talking about the fiddle I own"
Shit
Adam bit his lip, the guitar was invented by humans. The only musical instruments Angels know are the Harp, Piano, Fiddle, Flute, Organ and the Viola.
"Ohh" guess Adam would have to make it himself. Fucking weak. "Well I have to go"
Adam pushed himself out of Lucifers grip, turning around and gracefully side stepping the baby ducks that were following him.
"Where will you be going?"
"I'm trying to find my wife, Lilith" with Adams back to Lucifer, Lucifer didn't see how Adams eyes shifted into a glare. And Adam didn't need to look to know how Lucifer became anxious at the mention of her name.
Keep her you filthy wife stealer.
"I see . . . Well you should give her space she's probably doing her chores"
"I would like to invite her to rest with me then, she's probably tired from all those chores, afterall, I haven't seen her in a long time" regardless of how Adam sounded so innocent, a grin couldn't stop itself from forming on his face. He knows how possesive Lucifer is.
"Lilith takes her chores seriously, with precision might I add" Lucifers nervousness was replaced with a stern tone.
Just like Sera. Ugh, boring
"I see, well she can stop to rest with her husband. After all she's mine, is she not?"
Adam quickly wiped the grin off his face, turning back to face Lucifer and present a toothy grin. Finding amusement in Lucifers stern yet scrunched face.
"Would you like to help me?" Adam tilted his head, batting his lashes like how he did when he was mocking Liliths brat.
"Sadly I cannot" Lucifer masked his irritation with a tight-lipped smile. Fake ass "But I hope you will find her"
With that Lucifer vanished in a puff of angelic smoke.
----
"Just yesterday he was yelling at me, telling me about my purpose as his wife" Lilith nervously claimed, her head settled on the angels lap. They sat ontop a large boulder that overlooks the barrier between Eden and whats outside. What could be more.
Lilith closed her eyes, usually Adam wasn't like this, sure he could be a bit overwhelming but this felt . . . different. He would instruct Lilith but he'd do it with a certain tone and body language. This one is like a new different version of Adam. Has something happened?
Days progressed like that, Lilith mushing to Lucifer about how Adams been far more controllive, telling her what and what not to do. He'd even say words that she doesn't know exist. What's a pocket pussy?
Lucifer at this point felt dejected, he didn't think that his first friend would act like this. To his partner of all things. He also thought that when Adam dreamed he'd have a chance of more likely eating the apple but so far nothing.
Lucifer sighed, petting the head of the first woman. A woman so independent, fierce, caring, beatiful and so much more.
"Lucifer" Lilith rose her head, her lips mere inches apart from Lucifers. And suddenly they knew.
----
Just between a tree was Adam watching sll this happen with a grin. I win.
Adam turned around, he'd come back after there little sex sesh. Right now he has questions.
Why is he still in Eden if he has free will?
Shouldn't it be that he gets thrown away from Eden once he learns what free will is. This body of his didn't eat the apple. But his body before? future? Whatever, did.
He can say as much as curse words, knows shame and the good and bad. His not as pure minded as he was when he was in Eden. So why wasn't he thrown out?
Total banger but creepy as shit.
Adam gazed at the forbidden fruits. Carefully he reached out and plucked one out. He can see the reflection of his face.
If he eats this, what would happen. What if it turns him back to being someone without free will? What if it'll kill him? What if the sersphims find out and he'd be thrown out of Eden just like last time? Then that would mean all those acting would be for nothing.
But the temptation was raw, ever since Adam unlocked his free will he'd become more implusive and temptation was easy to succumb to. A total opposite of what he was before.
Adam held onto the apple, clutching it with his hand and procceded to bury it underneath the tree. Dirt caked between his fingertips. He wiped the sweat of his head, stood and spun. Turning back to where Lilith and Lucifer lay and where he would soon get rid of weeds.
----
"Lucifer . . ." Lilith mumbled chest heaving from exhaustion, she gazed the eyes of he angel above her, she'd never felt pleasure like this before.
"Lili--"
"Lilith!" Adam cried out eyes brimming with tears, fists shaking.
Lucifer and Lilith drew closer to each other, watching as the first mans eyes darted from his first wife to his first friend.
Lucifer was the first one to get his bearings "Adam listen--"
"No!" Adam cried out this time tears were freely falling from his face, he glared, teeth bared "How could you".
Both Lilith and Lucifer flinced from the snarl full of hatred. Oops dial it back.
"You were supposed to be my wife! Mine!" Adam yelled giving off the illusion of desperation, just like when it happened the first time. Just like when he was about to be stabbed.
At that Lucifers wings expanded covering Lilith and him in a cocoon, a sign of comfort for Lilith and a visible threat to Adam. Really? Gonna threaten someone who has no idea about the prospect of death?
A ball of light suddenly appeared, causing Lilith and Adam to cover their eyes and causing Lucifer to feel sick.
"Brother what have you done" it wasn't a question
----
Adam loves Michael, well as much as he can love a guy, no homo.
The guy always been the better guardian angel. And even when he died and went to Heaven Michael was the one to teach him everything. Before, when he wasnt so . . .yeah. Him and Michael would find a way to talk to eachother for hours. He was calm, attentive, can take Adams out of pocket jokes and humanity. Sometimes, Adam would stop thinking whenever his with Michael. The guys just that good.
But ever since the exterminations, increase of heavens winners and of course Michael being a high ranking angel, they haven't been able to talk as much. Or at all.
Man, Adam forgot how cool Michael was. Second to him of course. But he was very cool, he watches as Michael stands infront of him. Trying to shield him out of the first ever case of cheating.
If it was ever anyone who did that to him in his current self he'd feel offended. He can take a heartbreak, tf. But since it was Michael he feels giddy, oh he cannot wait to see what happens. He never saw what happened because he ran away immedietly when he found out.
----
Lucifer and Lilith stood at the edge of Eden, a portal behind them, the portal to Earth. Both of them were glaring at Michael who didn't look disturbed, only quirking an eye awaiting for a challenge. As if that bitch Lucifer can win against Michael.
Adam grinned.
Lucifer shifted his gaze to someone just behind Michael, Adam, they were eye-to-eye. The betrayal in Adams eyes were replaced with smugness, somethings wrong, this isn't Adam. Lucifers perplexed expression was replaced with shock as Adam cocked his hip, wiggled his fingers in a mock wave and mouth out a 'bye bitch'.
With a wave Michael cast Lucifer and Lilith out, discarded. ====

What did they do to my girl Katara nooo
Ive only watched ep 1 so hopefully it gets better but man
No accidentally breaking the iceberg with her waterbending to show how powerful she unknowingly is, no standing up to Sokka's misogyny (no misogyny at all), no wanting to run away from her family because Aang is her best chance at learning waterbending but then deciding against it because she knows Sokka needs her, no talking Aang down from the avatar state. Ironically removing the misogyny from Sokka affects Katara just as bad because theres nothing for her to bite back at him about. Theres just nothing interesting about her personality at all

Care Bears Nutcracker Suite
The author shares their fondness for the 1988 "Care Bears Nutcracker Suite" movie adapted from Tchaikovsky's ballet. The author praises the voice acting, animation quality, and unique storytelling woven with engaging characters and delightful humor.
Now I may be out on a limb here, but I loved the Care Bears when I was a kid. It was probably my first favorite show. If you’re a Care Bears fan, then you know that in 1988 a made for the TV movie, adapted from the 1982 Tchaikovsky ballet, “Care Bears Nutcracker Suite” was released. Most people I know have never heard of it, though I was so obsessed with it, I watched it year-round, never…
