Описание: Fandom is generally viewed as an integral part of everyday life which impacts upon how we form emotional bonds with ourselves and others in a modern, mediated world. Whilst it is inevitable for television series to draw to a close, the reactions of fans have rarely been considered. Williams explores this everyday occurence through close analysis of television fans to examine how they respond to, discuss, and work through their feelings when shows finish airing. Through a range of case studies, including The West Wing (NBC, 2000-2006), Lost (ABC 2004 -2010), Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003), Doctor Who (BBC 1963-1989; 2005-), The X-Files (FOX, 1993-2002), Firefly (FOX, 2002) and Sex and the City (HBO, 1998-2004), Williams considers how fans prepare for the final episodes of shows, how they talk about this experience with fellow fans, and how, through re-viewing, discussion and other fan practices, they seek to maintain their fandom after the show's cessation.

Автор: Fraser Elliott, Joshua Gulam, Sarah Feinstein Название: Full-Throttle Franchise: The Culture, Business and Politics of Fast & Furious ISBN: 1501378902 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781501378904 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 95040.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: When the first Fast & Furious film was released in June 2001, few predicted that it would be a box office hit, let alone the launchpad for a multi-billion-dollar franchise. A mid-budget crime movie set around L.A.’s underground car-racing scene, featuring a cast of relative unknowns, the film became one of the surprise hits of that summer, earning more than 5 times its budget in worldwide ticket sales. 2 decades and 9 films later, Fast & Furious today ranks among the 10 highest-grossing movie franchises of all time, with a box office total of $6.6 billion and has also given rise to an animated TV show and theme park ride. Full-Throttle Franchise is the first book to offer an in-depth analysis of the Fast & Furious, bringing together a range of scholars to explore not only the style and themes of the franchise, but also its broader cultural impact and legacy. The collected essays establish the franchise’s importance in cinematic and ideological terms, linking their discussions to wider issues of genre, representation, adaptation, and industry. Topics range from stardom and performance, focusing on key actors Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson, to the way in which Fast & Furious intersects with dominant ideas of racial, gender, and sexual identity. Aimed at both scholars and fans, Full-Throttle Franchise seeks to uncover just what has made Fast & Furious so enduringly popular, mapping its outrageous set pieces, ever-expanding universe, and growing cast of global megastars in terms of wider cultural and industrial forces.
Автор: Ross Garner Название: Ranger Reboot: Nostalgia, Transmediality and the Power Rangers Franchise ISBN: 1501312537 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781501312533 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 95040.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Examining Power Rangers, the long-running but frequently-maligned intellectual property, by treating it seriously and on its own terms, Ranger Reboot considers how forms of mediated nostalgia respond to, and are shaped by, such production-located issues as public service and/or commercial outlooks, scheduling decisions and target audience. The study argues in favor of rejecting a primarily sociological understanding of mediated forms of nostalgia, which would account for these by linking them to perceived periods of anxiety and crisis, by instead foregrounding how production-based concerns impact upon individual constructions of nostalgia. By addressing these issues, the chapters highlight how forms of nostalgia address multiple overlapping, and frequently contradictory, audience profiles. This introduces the neologism ‘glacial transmedia’, arguing that greater attention should be paid towards the temporality of industrial strategies for transmedia development by analysing the relationship between the Power Rangers on television and its main licensee (and later owner), the toy manufacturer Hasbro.

Описание: The history of Star Trek`s resurrection, between its 1969 cancellation and the 1979 release of Star Trek - The Motion Picture, has become legend. Like many legends, it tends to get printed instead of the facts. Drawing on contemporary news articles and primary sources, this book tells the true story of the first Star Trek reboot.
The Alien films are perceived to be a fractured franchise, each one loosely related to the others. They are nonlinear, complicated, convoluted: a collection of genre movies ranging from horror to war to farce.
But on closer examination, the threads that bind together these films are strong and undeniable. The series is a model of Catherine Keller's cosmology as a cycle of order out of chaos, an illustration of her concept of evil as discreation.
When viewed through the lens of Keller's Face of the Deep, the Alien films resolve into a cohesive whole. The series becomes six views of the idea of evil-as-exploitation, its origins, and its consequences. Each film expands on the concept of evil set forth by its predecessors, complicating that conception, and retroactively enriching readings of the films that came before.
