Emmys 2013

Vaidade no Emmys

As noites de prémios televisivos e cinematográficos costumam ficar marcadas pela passadeira vermelha e pelo tradicional glamour associado a estes eventos. 

A Academia de Televisão, Artes e Ciências dos Estados Unidos da América revelou a noite passada os vencedores da edição 65 dos Emmy Awards.

A beleza, o charme, a simpatia e o divertimento marcam estas noites cheias de estilo, onde as celebridades mostram as tendências da moda e promovem vestidos, jóias e sapatos. 

Este ano, os vestidos não eram particularmente espectaculares, mas mesmo assim houve um grande desfile de beleza pela passadeira vermelha.

  

Emmys 2013

VENCEDORES

A Academia de Televisão, Artes e Ciências dos Estados Unidos da América revelou a noite passada os vencedores da edição 65 dos Emmy Awards. Os prémios mais importantes da televisão norte americana foram apresentados por Neil Patrick Harris num espectáculo bastante calmo e apenas com dois números de coreografia e dança, algo divertido, mas muito contido em termos de piadas. De salientar as várias homenagens sentidas que foram feitas aos actores e actrizes que nos deixaram este ano.

No Drama os vencedores foram Breaking Bad (AMC) na categoria de Melhor Série e de Melhor Actriz Secundária para Anna Gun; House of Cards (Netflix) levou o prémio de Melhor Realização para David Fincher; Homeland (Showtime) venceu o prémio de Melhor Actriz para Claire Danes pela segunda vez e de Melhor Argumento para Henry Bromell; The Newsroom (HBO) venceu na categoria de Melhor Actor para Jeff Daniels; e Boardwalk Empire (HBO) levou o prémio de Melhor Actor Secundário para Bobby Cannavale.

Na Comédia, a série Modern Family (ABC) venceu mais uma vez na categoria de Melhor Série e de Melhor Realização para Gail Mancuso; The Big Bang Theory (CBS) venceu o prémio de Melhor Actor para Jim Parsons; Veep (HBO) venceu na categoria de Melhor Actriz para Julia Louis-Dreyfus e de Melhor Actor Secundário para Tony Hale; e Nurse Jackie (Showtime) na categoria de Melhor Actriz Secundária para Merritt Wever.

Na categoria de Mini-série ou Filme os vencedores foram Behind the Candelabra (HBO), que venceu os prémios de Melhor Mini-Série, de Melhor Actor para Michael Douglas e de Melhor Realização para Steven Soderbergh; Laura Linney da série The Big C: Hereafter (Showtime) venceu como Melhor Actriz; James Cromwell de American Horror Story: Asylum (FX Networks) venceu como Melhor Actor Secundário; e Ellen Burstyn de Political Animals (USA) venceu como Melhor Actriz Secundária.

Dado a atenção e projecção que as várias séries nomeadas têm tido ao longo dos últimos tempos, não houve grandes surpresas nos vencedores, principalmente na categoria de comédia. Confesso que pensei que Homeland levasse mais Emmys para casa, mas Breaking Bad e The Newsroom foram uma bela surpresa nas respectivas categorias vencedoras.

É com bastante pena minha que não vi duas séries muito boas, Dexter e Sherlock, nomeadas. E não posso deixar de mencionar algumas séries de fantasia, ficção científica e horror, que foram mais uma vez esquecidas e não reconhecidas, como foi o caso da última temporada de Fringe, The Walking Dead e Arrow ou ainda Game of Thrones (venceu dois Emmys em categorias técnicas) e American Horror Story: Asylum (venceu apenas dois Emmys).

Everness

Ian McDonald
Everness Series

Everness é uma série concebida por Ian McDonald lançada em 2012, que conta com dois volumes publicados e um terceiro será publicado em 2014. A história tem mistério, aventura, muitas engenhocas e será possível viajar no multiverso e conhecer Terras paralelas. O conceito é interessante e as capas são fabulosas. E o autor virá a Portugal já em Novembro, por isso toca a ler os livros do senhor.

Planesrunner (2012)

There is not one you. There are many yous. There is not one world. There are many worlds. Ours is one among billions of parallel earths.

When Everett Singh’s scientist father is kidnapped from the streets of London, he leaves young Everett a mysterious app on his computer. Suddenly, this teenager has become the owner of the most valuable object in the multiverse—the Infundibulum—the map of all the parallel earths, and there are dark forces in the Ten Known Worlds who will stop at nothing to get it. They’ve got power, authority, the might of ten planets—some of them more technologically advanced than our Earth—at their fingertips. He’s got wits, intelligence, and a knack for Indian cooking.

To keep the Infundibulum safe, Everett must trick his way through the Heisenberg Gate that his dad helped build and go on the run in a parallel Earth. But to rescue his dad from Charlotte Villiers and the sinister Order, this Planesrunner’s going to need friends. Friends like Captain Anastasia Sixsmyth, her adopted daughter, Sen, and the crew of the airship Everness.

Can they rescue Everett’s father and get the Infundibulum to safety? The game is afoot!

Be My Enemy (2013)

Everett Singh has escaped with the Infundibulum from the clutches of Charlotte Villiers and the Order, but at a terrible price.

His father is missing, banished to one of the billions of parallel universes of the Panoply of All World.

And Everett and the crew of the airship Everness have taken a wild, random Heisenberg Jump to a random parallel plane.

Everett is smart and resourceful and from a frozen earth far beyond the Plenitude plans to rescue his family.

But the villainous Charlotte Villiers is one step ahead of him.

Empress of the Sun (2014)

The airship Everness makes a Heisenberg Jump to an alternate Earth unlike any her crew has ever seen. Everett, Sen, and the crew find themselves above a plain that goes on forever in every direction without any horizon. There they find an Alderson Disc, an astronomical megastructure of incredibly strong material reaching from the orbit of Mercury to the orbit of Jupiter.

Then they meet the Jiju, the dominant species on a plane where the dinosaurs didn't die out. They evolved, diversified, and have a twenty-five million year technology head-start on humanity. War between their kingdoms is inevitable, total and terrible.

Everness has jumped right into the midst of a faction fight between rival nations, the Fabreen and Dityu empires. The airship is attacked, but then defended by the forces of the Fabreen, who offers theEverness crew protection. But what is the true motive behind Empress Aswiu's aid? What is her price?

The crew of the Everness is divided in a very alien world, a world fast approaching the point of apocalypse.

BANG! Brasil

Já está disponível online a revista BANG! Brasil. A Saída de Emergência parece estar decidida a apostar no mercado brasileiro que, diga-se de passagem, já ultrapassou o nosso em fantasia, ficção científica e horror (uma vez que falamos de uma escala muito superior à nossa) há algum tempo. 

Para além da publicação da revista BANG! Brasil, que parece ter os mesmos moldes da que é publicada em Portugal, a editora também vai começar a publicar autores ligados ao fantástico no Brasil.

Por cá, sairá uma nova BANG! em Outubro. (É uma pena sairem cada vez menos por ano).

Sleepy Hollow

SÉRIES FANTÁSTICAS

Sleepy Hollow (FOX)

Com: Tom Mison (Ichabod Crane), Nicole Beharie (Abbie Mills), Orlando Jones (Captain FRank Irving), Katia Winter (Katrina Crane), John Cho (Andy Dunn), Richard Cetrone (Headless Horseman), TBA (George Washington).

Estreia: 16 de Setembo nos E.U.A.

Sleepy Hollow trás para os tempos modernos a lenda do cavaleiro sem cabeça e as histórias de fantasmas, investigação e terror. A nova série já estreou nos E.U.A., resta saber se haverá algum canal por cá a passar a série.
Ichabod Crane "morre" durante uma missão para o General George Washington em 1790, acorda dois séculos e meio em Sleepy Hollow dos tempos modernos e logo se apercebe que o mal também acordou com ele.
O xerife é morto pelo infame Cavaleiro Sem Cabeça e Ichabod cria uma ligação improvável com a Detective Abbie Mills, uma jovem polícia que teve as suas próprias experiências sobrenaturais na infância. Juntos embarcam numa missão para parar o mal e descobrir mistérios que remontam à fundação do país.
O Capitão Frank Irving hesita em acreditar nas histórias sobrenaturais de Ichabod, mas quando a antiga mulher de Ichabod, Katrina fornece pistas sobre o perigo eminente, começam todos a perceber que a cidade não está nada adormecida.
Enquanto o Cavaleiro sem Cabeça se adapta rapidamente ao armamento dos tempos modernos, Ichabod tembém tem de lidar com as diferenças provocadas pelo abistmo histórico de mais de duzentos anos.

Euro Steam Con 2013

A Euro Steam Con 2013 irá realizar-se a 28 de Setembro no Porto, novamente no mítico Edifício Parnaso, perto da Praça de Mouzinho de Albuquerque (mais conhecida por Rotunda da Boavista), a cinco minutos a pé da estação de metro da Casa da Música.

A Convenção Europeia dedicada ao Steampunk terá escritores convidados, debates, vendedores de acessórios, sorteios de livros, o lançamento do Almanaque Steampunk, e muito mais.

RoboCop

Cinema Fantástico

Realizador: José Padilha

Com: Joel Kinnaman (Alex Murphy/RoboCop), Gary Oldman (Dr. Dennett Norton), Michael Keaton (Raymond Sellars), Abbie Cornish (Clara Murphy), Jay Baruchel (Pope), Samuel L. Jackson (Pat Novak)

Estreia: 2014

A história já é conhecida, mas parece que reinventaram e adaptaram um pouco o conceito de forma a que o filme pareça mais realista e futurista. O trailer do remake de RoboCop, cuja estreia está prevista para 2014, parece interessante. 

Light in August

William Faulkner
Light in August
1932

One of William Faulkner’s most admired and accessible novels, Light in August reveals the great American author at the height of his powers. Lena Grove’s resolute search for the father of her unborn child begets a rich, poignant, and ultimately hopeful story of perseverance in the face of mortality. It also acquaints us with several of Faulkner’s most unforgettable characters, including the Reverend Gail Hightower, plagued by visions of Confederate horsemen, and Joe Christmas, a ragged, itinerant soul obsessed with his mixed-race ancestry. Powerfully entwining these characters’ stories, Light in August brings to life Faulkner’s imaginary South, one of literature’s great invented landscapes, in all of its unerringly fascinating glory.

Read, read, read. Read everything - trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You’ll absorb it. Then write. If it is good, you’ll find out. If it’s not, throw it out the window. William Faulkner

Grey's Anatomy (ABC)

Décima Temporada

Regressa: 26 de Setembo nos E.U.A.

Anatomia de Grey volta com a décima temporada que promete muitas emoções e, aparentemente, uma morte logo no primeiro episódio, "Seal Our Fate", que terá duas horas de puxar a lágrima bem ao estilo dramático da série. Ainda não há uma data certa para a estreia da série no Fox Life ou na RTP2 em Portugal.
