<![CDATA[The Burial True Story: 10 Biggest Changes From Willie E. Gary’s 1995 Lawsuit]]> The Burial, starring Jamie Foxx and Tommy Lee Jones, is a film that navigates the line between fact and fiction, showcasing the power of telling stories inspired by true events. Director Maggie Betts strategically took creative liberties to elevate specific themes, notably racial tension, which took a central role in the movie. Slightly deviating from the real case the film is inspired by, racial elements did indeed simmer beneath the surface.

<![CDATA[10 Most Memorable One-Take Scenes In Movies & TV Shows]]> Filmmakers and showrunners are constantly seeking innovation when it comes to elevating their stories, and one way this is achieved is through one-take scenes or tracking shots. This technique challenges conventional storytelling methods and showcases impressive camerawork, acting, and direction. Tracking shots, with their seamless, unbroken sequences, are a testament to a production's precise planning and execution. They require exact coordination among actors and crew members, raising the stakes for everyone involved. When executed well, as seen in movies like Birdman, these one-take scenes not only throw the audience directly into the story but also push the boundaries of visual storytelling.

The character was largely seen as a second-tier Marvel property, far behind the likes of Spider-Man and the X-Men. Now, almost 15 years later, Iron Man is regarded as the film that put Marvel Studios on the map, with the 2008 film grossing $500 million at the global box office and making its star, Robert Downey Jr., a household name in the process. Today, Iron Man is considered one of the MCU's most valuable franchises and the film that set up its success.

An elegant weapon for a more civilized time." This was just the beginning of Obi-Wan's lightsaber lessons as lightsaber combat is an art form; it is a symbol of Jedi traditions as well as a reflection of one's mastery of the Force that extends into Star Wars' various lightsaber types.

Because of the legal issues holding the character back in the MCU, Hulk hasn't gotten a solo film since the start of the series, with 2008's The Incredible Hulk. Though Disney may have finally secured a Hulk movie to put the character in the spotlight, he's since held more of a supporting role throughout the universe's other franchise.

Watching a bad movie at least delivers some sensation and emotional response that makes the film stand out and be memorable in places. Likewise, a great movie speaks for itself and manages to create something that connects with the viewer, tells a coherent story, and is genuinely enjoyable or engaging to watch. But when a movie is average, the plot seems to disappear and all memory of it starts to fade as soon as the scene changes.

In May 2011, Disney CEO Bob Iger approached George Lucas to discuss the idea of acquiring Lucasfilm. Unfortunately, as Iger recalled, Lucas overestimated the value of his company. He wanted what he called the Pixar Deal, meaning a similar sum, but he didn't have any films in development or a production pipeline. It seems likely this was when Lucas seriously began working on scripts for his own Star Wars sequel trilogy, presumably feeling they would be a valuable part of the deal.
