Wissenschaftler von Scientist Rebellion beraten sich während der Blockade des Privatflieger-Terminals am BER. Berlin, 10.11.22
Yes, zero-point energy metastability is a real hypothesis, and a scary one if true. (Google "Vacuum Metastability Event" -- it can destroy the universe!)
Grammatical fixes.
Somewhere in Britain, deep in a secure underground bunker, some of the countries top scientists are working around the clock to understand the Zombie virus...How was it made?...how long does it last?...how can it be stopped?...

SYNOPSIS: The Creature is kidnapped by scientists and taken from the Black Lagoon to what's basically Sea World, where he's tasered with a bull prod, ankle-chained, and exhibited to fat tourists. A pair of scientists-in-love condition him to not eat and not touch a ball by electroshocking the shit out of him, because that is what science is. He develops a thing for the scientist with tits. He gets sick of it and, after a long, long series of boring swimming-in-tank scenes, he violently escapes. But no one can resist the siren song of sexy science and he stalks the lady ichthyologist and turns the kidnapping tables.
I think the creature suit looks a bit better in this sequel than it did in the original, certainly so when he's walking the land. Those expanding fins when he breathes! In the scenes wherein he's lashing out or fed up with this world, the Creature is far more active and assertive & the movie really could've used more of him facepalming people over railings and crushing heads and fucking up cars.
Nestor Paiva is back! As Lucas! For 15 minutes or so. That's all you get! But at least he provides a counterargument to "Hey, something natural, let's 'study' it Abu Gharib-style becuz we can!!" I love that the movie opens with Lucas being jerky to crocodiles, then getting all philosophical about the Creature not evolving because it has a "spark of the divine".
Remember how the original CREATURE was great because it cared about developing its characters and made scientists sympathetic? The sequel decides to go the other way. Its scientists mostly act like dickish automatons, there's a love triangle that exists only because the first movie kind of had one (and because the super-dick Bachelor #2 makes regular-dick protagonist look like less of a dick by comparison), and the blonde object of adoration is one of the most boring and bland lead ladies ever and has at most a B+ cup and YET EVERYBODY WANTS HER, EVEN THE MONSTER. Kristin Stewart of the 50s!
The writing is very clunky. The true CREATURE skillfully wove its science talk into the story, but in this film things come to a screeching halt so lady scientist can explain how gills work for 4 and a half minutes. That's the last science talk you'll hear from her, though, as the rest of her dialogue is mostly mooning over how scientists don't understand love (she talks about looking up "love" in the dictionary, please remember that poor people in the 50s paid to see this). Even the movie doesn't take her seriously, as she's described as a "pretty, young scientist" in a news report. Plus this has hideously terrible attempts at comedy (like a cute chimpanzee, lololol), scored with the most grating and laugh-demanding "Green Acres"-esque music cues ever.
I'm sure it's because they weren't in the Black Lagoon anymore and the Creature from Marineland sounds dumb, but I hate the name Gill Man. And the film makes it abundantly clear that Gill Man is his name, because look. Huge portions of the original are essentially recycled—the putting stuff in the Lagoon scene to capture the Creature (dynamite in this case), the Creature swimming underneath the woman, even the ending of the film is essentially redone. In the latter case, I'm assuming that's because they were planning to churn out one of these every year a la PARANORMAL ACTIVITY and SAW (for a while).
Clint Eastwood's very first movie, you guys!
The scientist shook the flask in his hand ... no reaction ... batch X37T-A was a failure like all of his previous batches. "Might as well just pour this batch down the sink and start again" he thought.
"I mean, what harm can it do ... "

Children were greeted by a group of mad scientist librarians. The children explored sensory bins filled with worms, frog eyes and super cold snow. They also played STEIN (bingo), made a monster receipe book and performed a science experiment, making a lava tube. The children also had some really super yummy snacks, fritos and ketchup, blue jello with gummy worms and sour gummy worms and to wash it down was green apple koolaid.
Linda managed to get the corset on loan from a Swedish designer who was looking for a shot of it for his portfolio. Clearly a win-win-win situation, as far as I'm concerned...
