THE LOST FILMS FANZINE PRESENTS MOVIE MILESTONES #1, which celebrates the 80th anniversary of One Million B.C. (1940). And because this is a subsidiary of THE LOST FILMS FANZINE, we explore all the ways the film could have turned out but didn't. For instance, did you know that the rumored original director, D.W. Griffith, wanted to use stop-motion dinosaurs instead of lizards? Did you know that Hal Roach really wanted to adapt Jack London's Before Adam, but RKO beat him to the film rights so he had to craft an all-new caveman story? Also covered is the development of Hammer Film's remake, One Million Years B.C. (1966), which at one point included a mammoth, giant scorpions, and was to end with a battle with a brontosaurus. This special magazine also includes a mini-filmography covering the more prominent films to cannibalize stock-footage from the 1940 B.C., Mike Bogue remembers the forgotten caveman flick Eegah (1962), and the editor briefly explores films that almost got made in the wake of B.C. including Ray Harryhausen's Deluge remake, Mistress of the Seas starring Raquel Welch, and even an axed B.C. TV series

I've always been fascinated by North Korea and always knew that if I had the opportunity to visit some day, I'd be all over it. Little did I know that many years later, I'd be standing at my hotel window in the border town of Dandong, China, staring at the darkness that laid across the Yalu River. I was a stone throw away from the most mysterious and unpredictable country on the planet: North Korea.
"They have hockey in North Korea?" many asked.
They sure do.
The North Koreans have a saying: "The first time you visit North Korea, you are a stranger. The second time, you are a friend. The third time, you're family." Little did I think that two weeks after setting foot in the DPRK for the first time, I'd be returning home leaving behind a group of hockey players, men and women, that I already considered as friends, people that I dearly care for, people that I've shed tears over.
Here are some of my stories about spending time with local Koreans, the real people, the forgotten ones. This is about the North Korea no one talks about and its resilient, humble, shy and down to earth athletes who love and play the same game as you and me, but in some of the most difficult conditions imaginable. This is about a group of young men and women who deserve your compassion because just like you and I, they have friends, families and want to live their lives to the fullest. Just like you and I, they have dreams, goals, and are always looking to improve their lives. But unlike us, the entire world seems against them.
They furiously play a game that is so pure and raw at the same time, without any foreign influence. They play a game that fascinates me, a game that makes me want to do more. With barely any knowledge of the modern game, what the North Koreans lack in knowledge and abilities, they try to make up with discipline and heart.
This is about the North Korea you never knew existed, and about its people who make you appreciate your way of life so much more than you ever have.
It's true, no one walks from the DPRK unchanged.

Pioneer life was tough. If your stagecoach wasn't getting held up by outlaws, chances are you were suffering from dysentery along the Oregon Trail. If you weren't toughing it through a drought, you might be enduring a hard flood. And, if the wolves and the mountain lions didn't get your livestock, chances are the Sabretooth Tigers and Sarkastodons would. Wait, did you just say Sabretooth Tigers and Sarkastodons...as in prehistoric megafauna?
That's right, remnant dinosaurs weren't the only cryptids that supposedly made it into the Nineteenth Century. Along with the surviving saurians came giant prehistoric armadillos, mastodons, cave bears, and a bevy of other prehistoric monsters. Pioneer newspapers were rife with reports of livestock being killed by mysterious, brutal beasts that defied description, and some of the creatures were simply too big to be anything living at that time and instead seemed like holdovers from the last Ice Age.
In the pages ahead you'll ask yourself: Did a Wild West showman named "Idaho Bill" really capture a saber-toothed tiger in Mexico and bring it to Washington, D.C.? What was the creature that people described as a cross between a dinosaur and a prairie dog in Nemaha County, Nebraska? Does Bear Lake, Utah, harbor a giant prehistoric beaver? Did the Duke of Westminster really hunt for a Ceratosaurus in the Arctic Circle? And finally, is there a real "land that time forgot" hidden within the caldera of an extinct volcano in the North Pole?

Описание: Psychologist and struggling aspiring writer Kris Bronson was just your ordinary hardworking guy. But that was the problem. He wanted more. Desperate for the search of finding the imagination he craves so badly for his own writing, he looks to the minds of the criminally insane, particularly two men who seem to have survived the annals of time. What started off as a job turned into one of the most fantastical roller-coaster rides Kris would ever experience. Carried by the tales of the Trojan War, to the demise of Julius Caesar, and even a nod to the Arthurian legend of Camelot, Kris finds the imagination he has been looking for. As he sees the magic of these two seemingly insane, dangerous men go to work on his mind, the stories of worlds within our own, guarded by monstrous and magical figures, he realizes that he is doing much more than finding a cure to his writer's block. He is being convinced that there is much more to this world than he ever realized, one that would inevitably be the end of the world as we know it by the hands of a modern-day terrorist that seems to have his own magical ties to Kris and the two men he conducts his sessions with.

It is all the little moments that make us, even those that seem least significant at the time. Mother's Milk invites you to step through the door and let the aroma of homemade crullers and fresh brewed coffee waft across your senses, while you ponder what it is that we carry with us through the generations. Relax and listen in on the snippets of life of these ordinary people who will never be acknowledged by the many, but are truly worth getting to know. The less extraordinary lives of the majority all contribute to the history, ancestry, and, perhaps, even the destiny of this place we call home.
