回复 :今年秋季一部《午夜灵异录像》（Paranormal Activity）以一万多美元的超低成本在北美取得了一亿多美元的票房回报，让人啧啧称奇。眼下该片导演Oren Peli已经和派拉蒙公司再度签约，将让他们继续来发行自己的新片《51区》（Area 51）。和《午夜灵异录像》一样，《51区》也是超自然惊悚片，不过其成本已经大幅攀升到了500万美元，尽管和别的影片比起来仍然属于低成本，但这已经是其前作成本的百倍了。《51区》讲述的是3个青少年受好奇心驱使溜进了位于美国内华达沙漠内利斯空军基地俗称51区的地方，外界盛传美国军方在这里掩盖了外星人存在的证据。据透露，派拉蒙是在前不久的美国电影市场展会上达成这一协议的，他们将联合Incentive电影娱乐公司和Aramid娱乐公司，为这部《51区》及可能的续集提供高达七位数的拍摄资金。目前《51区》已经拍摄完毕，正在进行后期制作，预计明年就能和观众见面。另外，完成该片后导演Oren Peli还将为派拉蒙制作《午夜灵异录像》的续集。

回复 :Wunder der Schöpfung is an extraordinary, fascinating Kulturfilm trying to explain the whole human knowledge of the 1920s about the world and the universe. 15 special effects experts and 9 cameramen were involved in the production of this film which combines documentary scenes, historical documents, fiction elements, animation scenes and educational impact. It its beautifully colored, using tinting and toning in a very elaborated way. Some visual ideas in the sequences with a space shuttle visiting different planets in the universe seem to have to be the inspiration for Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.In the context of Germany's Kulturfilm phenomenon, Wunder der Schöpfung was among the greatest achievements of the 1920s. The production was constructed, rehearsed, and shot over a period of two and a half years, under the supervision of Hanns Walter Kornblum. The idea to describe the universe and man's place in it well suited UFA's Grossfilm mentality, one year before the Metropolis catastrophe. Hundreds of skilled craftsmen participated in the project, building props and constructing scale models drawn by 15 special effects draughtsmen, while 9 cameramen in separate units worked on the historical, documentary, fiction, animation, and science-fiction sequences. Without star roles or even protagonists, the film's plot is crowded with meticulously structured and skillfully acted single scenes an artful mosaic of small vignettes. No less than four credited university professors ensured the factual background behind the scientific and historical events portrayed.The film's symbol of progress and the new scientific era is a spacecraft, travelling through the Milky Way, making all the planets and their inspiring worlds familiar to us, with the extravaganza of their distinctive features. The film's educational intentions, however, become steadily more obscure, humorous, or even campy as this popularization project proceeds. With the excuse of presenting the end of the world a not-so-new concept as a new, undeniably scientific truth, the film veers happily along a new path, displaying detailed apocalyptic scenes of the end of mankind. For today's audiences, this amazing film demonstrates how the universe was comprehended in the 1920s, and how that view was sold to contemporary audiences.
