I got something fancy for Christmas this year.
This is my new TIG welding machine, which I've already christened in the typical Practical
Engineering fashion.
I'm a welding newbie and currently absorbing anything I can on the subject, so while I
learn, I thought I would take the time to boil down some of that new knowledge and share
it with you.
Now, this is welding for the guys and girls at the front of the class who never set foot
in the machine shop You know who I'm talking about: the marching band members, the geeks,
the nerds.
We're not going to obfuscate things with bumblefudgery and Canadian syllogisms.
In other words, if you already nail the keyhole on your root pass, this video might just be
a bit elementary.
I'm Grady and this is Practical Engineering.
On this episode we're talking Welding 101 for hobbyists.
For our purposes, we'll define welding as a way to join metals using fusion.
That fusion is what makes welding different than brazing or soldering.
When you're joining metals, you have two parts, the base metal, and the sometimes optional
filler metal you use to reinforce the joint.
With brazing and soldering, the heat is only enough to melt the filler metal and not the
base metal.
This is the metal equivalent to how most glues work.
With welding, on the other hand, the base metals are melted so that fusion can occur.
The two metals actually become one.
"Set your spirit free, it's the only way to be…"
Little spice girls reference for you.
In general, and compared to other common building materials, metals have excellent mechanical
properties.
They are hard, tough, strong, and durable.
As someone who, and I hesitate to say it on a welding video, occasionally works the wood,
even I can admit that metals are a superior material in many regards.
So you can see why it would be advantageous to have a way to connect them together, especially
if you can do it in such a way that joint isn't the weakest part of your assembly.
That's the goal of welding, and luckily, this is not something reserved for industrial
factories and machine shops.
From my own experiences so far, welding is something you might be able to do yourself
as a hobby.
And stay tuned till the end for some tips for getting started.
Welding requires two essential ingredients: heat and protection from the atmosphere.
The heat, of course, is necessary to melt the pieces of metal being welded so that can
fuse together.
The shielding is necessary because molten metals easily oxidize and absorb atmospheric
contaminants.
These impurities will weaken a weld or prevent good fusion all together, so some kind of
shielding is usually required.
Now, there are a lot of ways to make heat.
That's actually a fundamental law of the universe, but it's also true in the more
specific sense here.
So, as you can imagine, with only those two basic requirements, a litany of welding methods
have been developed using different permutations of heat and shielding.
Luckily for me as the writer of this video, only a few of those methods are widely accessible
to hobbyists.
Today we'll talk briefly about five.
The first is oxy-fuel welding, also known as gas or torch welding.
In this method, the heat comes from the combustion of a mixture of pure oxygen and some other
gas, usually acetylene.
This combination creates an extremely hot flame which can exceed the melting point of
most metals.
The shielding comes from the flame envelope and gases generated by the combustion (mainly
carbon dioxide).
With oxy-fuel welding, you use the torch to generate a puddle of molten metal.
With your other hand you add filler metal to the weld.
It's a very simple process and one of the oldest methods of welding.
Advantages are that it feels really awesome to hold an oxy-acetylene torch, it doesn't
require any electricity, and the torch can also be used for other purposes like cutting,
so you can get a lot of uses out of a single tool.
Disadvantages are that you have to have two high pressure tanks of flammable gases nearby,
and the torch is kind of unwieldy which leads to slower and less-consistent welding.
For the next four types of welding, the heat comes from generating an electrical arc between
an electrode and the metal.
You've got the short I-sound nicknames: Stick, MIG, and TIG, and I'll sneak flux-core
in next to MIG, since you can usually use the same machine for both processes.
Probably the most common type of welding is shielded metal arc welding, also known as
stick welding.
This process uses a power supply to maintain an arc between the electrode and base metal.
In stick welding, the electrode is also the filler metal, and it's surrounded by flux
which melts during the welding process.
When an arc is struck, the heat generated melts both the base metal and the electrode,
causing them to fuse together.
The flux coating also disintegrates, generating both a shielding gas and slag which absorbs
impurities and creates a protective covering over the weld as it cools.
Stick welding is so popular because of its simplicity and versatility.
Constant current power supplies are fairly inexpensive compared to other welding machines,
and stick welding can be performed in almost any environment, including underwater.
Disadvantages are that it only works for certain metals (mostly iron and steel) and that it
can be a fairly messy process with lots of molten spatter and fumes.
Next up are the two wire-feed welding methods.
Gas Metal Arc Welding, also known as MIG, and flux core arc welding.
Both MIG and flux core welding use a constant voltage power supply to generate the arc,
and a wire feed mechanism for the electrode which is also filler metal.
Just like in stick welding, the arc melts both the electrode and the base metal, allowing
them to fuse together into a weld.
For MIG, the shielding comes from an inert gas (that's the IG in MIG) that surrounds
the arc during the weld.
Usually the gas shield is a mixture of argon and carbon dioxide.
As its name implies, flux-core welding uses a tubular electrode with flux in the center.
The flux shields the weld by generating gas and slag just like with stick welding.
You can use both an inert gas and flux-cored wire, a process known as dual shield welding.
Gas Metal Arc and Flux-core arc are two of the fastest welding methods in terms of deposition
rate, since you don't have to stop to get a new rod.
MIG and flux core welding are also considered the easiest methods to learn because there
are fewer variables to control during the process.
MIG is generally an inside process, since wind can blow away the shielding gas, but
flux-core can be used in most environments just like stick welding.
Finally, we have gas tungsten arc welding or TIG welding.
This process is much like torch welding.
In fact the business end of a TIG welder is also called a torch.
When TIG welding, the arc passes between the electrode and the metal, but unlike in the
other processes we've discussed, the electrode doesn't melt since it's made of a tungsten
alloy.
Instead, filler metal is added to the weld puddle with your other hand.
The puddle and arc are shielded from the atmosphere by the IG in TIG, usually pure argon gas,
which is focused around the weld by a ceramic cup.
TIG is the most precise of the techniques we've discussed, because you have much greater
control over the length and current of the arc, the rate at which filler metal is added,
and other important variables which can affect weld quality.
That control also makes TIG the most appropriate method for welding thin materials and non-ferrous
metals like aluminum, magnesium, and even titanium.
For the same reason though, it's probably the most challenging process to master, and
usually the slowest.
To get started welding requires some equipment, most importantly a welding machine or oxy-fuel
setup.
Many machines on the market today can perform more than one welding process, so you don't
always have to choose a single one.
However, like many hobbies, there is some rabid brand loyalty when it comes to arc welders,
so make sure you choose the right color.
You don't want to come home with a Lincoln only to find out that your wife only goes
for Miller guys.
And don't forget safety.
Like any hobby that involves searingly bright lights, molten metals, and high voltages,
welding can be hazardous.
Consider the dangers before welcoming one of these machines into your home, and if you're
budgeting to get started in the hobby, don't forget all of the safety gear you'll need
as well.
Like I mentioned at the start, I'm new to welding as well, so I'm far from your best
resource on the subject.
Luckily for all of us, there are a few people on YouTube putting out incredible educational
content for free, two of whom were kind enough to share footage with me for use in this video.
Jody from Welding Tips and Tricks makes awesome videos about welding including beautiful arc
shots so you can see exactly what's happening when he welds.
This Old Tony makes extremely well-produced machine shop videos that are big on fundamentals.
Do yourself a favor and go subscribe to both of these channels.
I promise you will not regret it.
Huge thanks to both of these guys for letting me use some of their footage.

What Is Cash Me Outside Howbow Dah? The meaning and origin of the Dr. Phil 13 year old girl meme - Duration: 5:04.
Hello Internet! And welcome to Behind The Meme! Where we take a look at the meaning
and the origin of your favorite memes and trends! Today we have a look at "Cash me
ousside howbow dah"
Thank you so very much to each and every single one of my viewers who let me know this meme
was a topic they were interested in seeing a video on. I'm pretty excited to get into
this one so make sure to let me know what you would like to see next and maybe ill be
able to make it happen! You guys wanted it now you have it! Here We GO!!!
So you may be wondering to yourself just what in the heck is cash me ousside how bout dah?
you see on september 15 2016 the dr phil youtube channel…you know dr phil!! that guy who
has the head that you can see your reflection on and has the personality of an acorn, yeah
him! His youtube channel posted a clip which featured a 13 year old girl named danielle
and her mother. They were on the show because danielle was bad. Not michael jackson bad,
but really bad.
I don't behave, Im disrespectful. I steal cars.
she's even taken my jewelry, she took my credit card and purchased a stripper pole.
See she's smoke, that's how you know she's a bad girl.
Now I'm not sure what state, country or planet danielle is from but the language she
speaks is interesting to say the least.
(Gibberish)
huh? I…I dont understand?
(Gibberish)
What?!
(Gibberish)
uhhhh can somebody help me here? (gibberish) Ohhhh…of course thats what you were saying,
silly me.
so where is Danielle from? I detect a slight accent of some sort….
from the streets….ohhhhh
uhhhhh ok…. I guess
Now later on in the segment danielle, you know the bad girl from the streets who sounds
like a drunk 3rd grader. she snaps at the audience for laughing at her and that my friends
is when she gives us all the meme gift from the gods.
"cash me ousside how bow da. huh? cash me ousside how bow da?"
Now lucky for you guys I happen to be fluent in dumbass what danielle was trying to say
was "catch me outside how about that?" meaning all those individuals that were laughing
at her could meet her at a designated location outside to settle their differences. Now since
Danielle is from the streets, I assume she meant in a physical way because I'm guessing
she won't be winning any logical debates to settle a difference.. it's just a hunch
now Since the video was posted and because of danielle's accent , the " cash me ousside
how bout dah?" part of the video became memorable and has began to be used along with
an image of danielle creating a meme that is used on various social media platforms
across the web. the meme is being used online in the same way danielle used it on the show,
It's a humorous way to challenge somebody or something. Although, danielle wasn't
being funny when she first said it. she was being serious….which makes it funny
One of The first examples of the meme was created in october 2016 and since then the
meme has become the go to image to use when you ant feeln da shi da otha peep be telln
ya up in yo ear and make u mad n wanna get turnt up n wild out shi n be lik cash me ousside
n u kno wha up i dat lil wha u sayn man me mah cash me ousside …damnit my bad you guys
Danielle is rubbing off on me.
I meant to say is you use the meme to respond to something you aren't pleased with Or
you can just use it as a joke
But the fun doesn't stop there, danielle was such a gold mine that other parts of her
dr phil segment have also started to be used in humorous ways online. Particularly her
gem "I'm about to start swinging."
"Im about to start swinging. on my momma I'm about to start swinging"
and for our grand finale I saved the best part for last. Apparently somebody did cash
danielle ousside and this is what happened.
YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!
So there you have it cash me ousside how bow dah started off as a line of dialogue muttered
by a misguided child and has evolved into a humorous reaction image used in numerous
ways.
But Hey!!! That's the internet for you and on the internet! Memes Are Keeeeng!!! Thank
you all so very much for watching! Make sure to subscribe so you can catch my next video
and stay up to date on all your favorite memes! who knows you may learn about a meme you never
knew about before! i'll catch you beautiful people next time.

China's Economy Is Running on Borrowed Money – and Time | Ruchir Sharma - Duration: 2:22.
What our research shows is that if you look back in history the single most important
predictor of economic and financial trouble is when a country takes on too much debt over
a short span of time.
If a country does that it's bound to make bad loans.
It's bound to make bad investment decisions because there's no way that you can lend
too much money and find enough credit worthy borrowers to make the right decisions with
that money over a short span of time.
So the exact way that we define this in the book is that if a nation takes on too much
debt over a five-year time horizon the next five years typically tend to be very bad for
a country.
Now as far as China's concerned there is no developing country in history which has
taken on so much debt over such a short span of time as China as done in the after crisis
era.
And so that's why I remain so concerned about China which is that China's debt is
a share of its GDP keeps going up over time.
And today it's taking four dollars of debt to create a dollar of GDP growth in China.
In the first quarter that number was as high as six to one.
At the peak of the U.S. housing bubble in 2008 it was taking three dollars of debt to
create a dollar of GDP growth in the United States.
So that's how addicted to debt China has become and why I remain so worried about China's
economic prospects going forward.
So even though I was for much of my working life in all of China given how much China
had achieved and how well it had done in many of the rules that I look at in the book from
it's consistent zeal for reforms, from the way that it's leadership would keep changing
and reenergizing itself every few years, from the way that it made use of its geography,
from the fact that its demographics were quite favorable for many years and how it relied
so much on a cheap currency to export its way to prosperity.
But now my biggest concern is that like all economic miracles China is facing a point
where the debt is so high that a miracle comes to an end.

Nearly 1 Out Of Every 100 Americans Marched On Saturday For Equality - Duration: 2:45.
On Saturday, the day after Donald Trump's inauguration, millions of women and men across
this country took to the streets not necessarily to protest Donald Trump himself, but to protest
his sexist policies, his sexist rantings, and to show that women are not going to sit
silently as their rights across the country are taken away from them.
This was, according to numbers, the largest national day of protest in the history of
the United States.
It was an event created by women.
It was an event put forth by women.
They got together, essentially, as a country and said, "We are tired of this.
We're tired of being treated like second-class citizens.
We're tired of white males telling us what we can or cannot do with our body.
We're tired of white males trying to take away our healthcare," because that's what's
happening right now, not just in Washington, D.C., but in states across the country.
Millions got together on one day and said, "Enough.
We're fighting back.
We're standing up to you.
We outnumber you."
From this Women's March Movement, another movement has already emerged.
It's called Run For Something.
Their goal is to get these women that are now politically active to continue the activism
and run for local offices.
The way they say it, "If Donald Trump, this idiot, can win president, then you can certainly
win a seat on your city council.
You could win a state representative seat.
All you have to do is stay active and keep fighting."
That is the message that these women brought forth on Saturday, "We're not sitting down.
We're not sulking.
We're not whining about this.
We're standing up and showing that we're going to be active and we're going to hold you accountable."
Hopefully, the Run For Something movement does pick this up and runs with it, because
these women across the country need to be heard.
They need to be in office.
They need to be in positions of tremendous power where they can really make change and
tell the white men that are trying to take their rights away, "Not going to happen anymore."

10 Essential Cheats That Every Gamer Should Know
Intro Video games these days are getting pretty
tough, and gamers put in hours upon hours to improve themselves and master said games.
That's why we've compiled a list of modern video game tricks and cheats to help out along
the way.
Here are 10 Essential Cheats That Every Gamer Should Know.
If you like what you see here, don't forget you can hit subscribe to catch even more videos
like this one.
Final Fantasy XV – Live to Fight Another Day
So you ignored the multiple warnings and you're driving around in your convertible with your
pals at night, singing and having a good time, when suddenly a massive demon pops out of
no where and you have to stop everything you're doing to fight it.
This can be a real pain, especially if you're party isn't equipped to take on high-level
demons.
Thankfully there is a way around these encounters.
As soon as you see the red bar appear signifying a demon is near, make a U-turn and drive to
a range where it won't attack you but you can still see it.
When you exit the car, the screen should cut to black, and then back again, and the demon
will have despawned, no longer blocking your path.
Super Mario Odyssey – Unlimited Lives Super Mario Odyssey for Nintendo Switch takes
Mario out of the Mushroom Kingdom and throws him into new and interesting worlds.
These unfamiliar places may present a challenge, so luckily we have an age old cheat to help
us out.
In the Super Mario games, you can chain kills and jumps on enemies to get more and more
points.
Once the points get high enough, it starts to give you extra lives.
In many of the Mario games, people have found places in the worlds where they can exploit
the process and get unlimited lives.
Most of the time, it involves either a red or green turtle shell.
You can either take the shell in between blocks or walls where enemies continuously spawn
to endlessly kill enemies, or jump on the shell yourself over and over to get the extra
lives.
Assassin's Creed Black Flag – Deceased Crew
Black Flag is more of a pirate game than an Assassin's Creed game, but it is by far
one of the best pirate games out there.
To make it even more piratey, Ubisoft included some cheats you can unlock while progressing
through the game.
There are a couple that add to the pirate image of the game, like Arrr Matey, which
makes the main character Edward speak in cliché pirate phrases, but the one that stands out
the most is also the hardest to unlock.
You need to complete all 100 Abstergo challenges in the game to unlock the cheat, but oh what
a glorious cheat it is.
Deceased Crew changes all of the crewmembers on your ship to look like undead skeletons,
turning your ship the Jackdaw into the Black Pearl.
Eat your heart out, Johnny Depp.
Batman Arkham Knight – Big Head Mode What cheat list would be complete without
big head mode?
This cheat dates all the way back to 1994 from a basketball game called NBA Jam.
In it, you can input a cheat code before the game begins, and all of the basketball players
will have massive heads.
Throughout the years, big head mode, also known as DK mode, popped up in tons of different
video games ranging from first person shooters like 007 Golden Eye, to action-adventure games
like Batman Arkham Knight.
To active this cheat at any point in the game, hold LT and RT if you're on Xbox, or L2
and R2 on PlayStation, then spin the right analog stick 10 times.
Once completed, all characters, even NPC's, will have ridiculous, giant heads.
LEGO Star Wars The Force Awakens – Unlock Characters
The LEGO games have a lot of characters you can play as.
And we mean a lot.
There are over 250 characters in total with all of the dlc, and that's not including
the characters you can create yourself!
So, you can play through the entire game to unlock all the characters the hard way, or
simply put in a cheat code to unlock the corresponding characters.
For example: go to the cheat menu and type in 3RRVAV to unlock Fin in his storm trooper
armor without his helmet on, or type in CP6ETU to play as a Teedo, the creepy scavenger thing
on Jakku that catches BB-8 in an inescapable, tiny net.
Gears of War 4 – Despicable You To find this awesome gun, you need to be playing
on insane difficulty.
During the prologue, you'll come across a gate that you open using a passcode.
Once open, there is a section with three enemies.
Take them out as quickly as possible, and then run to the right to enter a room before
a giant metal door closes.
Once inside, you'll find a gun called Despicable You, which is a reference to the Despicable
Me movies.
The gun is similar to Gru's freeze gun from the movie, and it shoots ice balls that freeze
enemies, and then blows them up.
This gun delivers a one shot kill to all enemies, but it only holds 12 bullets, so use it wisely.
Contra – Konami Code Okay, so Contra isn't a modern video game,
but we just had to include it.
Besides, it is still used in other modern video games and websites today.
This is quite possibly the most well-known cheat code of all time.
The Konami Code was first used in a game called Gradius.
Entering up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A on the title screen will
give the player almost all of the power ups available in the game.
Perhaps the game it is most known for however is Contra.
For this game, the cheat grants 30 extra lives to the player.
The Konami Code was used in over 100 Konami games, and has been adopted by other titles
such as BioShock Infinite, Assassins Creed 3, Borderlands 2, League of Legends, and many,
many others.
The code is even used by some Internet websites to open up different Easter eggs and mini
games, but we'll let you discover those ones on your own.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Fast Travel
The Legend of Zelda games have huge maps that can be a pain to get around in, and Breath
of the Wild boasts by far the largest map in franchise history.
Luckily, there has consistently been ways to manipulate the games to make travel much
faster.
In Ocarina of Time you can jump slash a wall to slide quickly through Hyrule field, and
in Wind Waker you can super swim to rocket through the water and reach your destination
in seconds.
Both of these methods have been used by speedrunners to complete the games as fast as possible,
and we wouldn't be surprised if a similar glitch is used in Breath of the Wild.
Being an open world sandbox style game with new abilities, there is no end to the creative
ways gamers can find to navigate the world.
Grand Theft Auto - Skyfall GTA has a ton of awesome cheat codes for story
mod such invincibility, explosive melee attacks, and moon gravity.
But no other cheat can quite capture that perfect balance of usefulness and fun like
skyfall does.
Spawning an attack helicopter and weapon codes certainly come close, but the ability to traverse
half the map in an epic free fall is just so much fun.
To activate the cheat, you can input the code using the buttons on your controller, or you
can whip out your in-game cellphone and dial 1-999-SKY-FALL.
The screen goes black for a moment, and then suddenly you appear a mile above the city
plummeting towards the ground without a parachute.
It seems pointless, but you can actually guide yourself through the air pretty well, and
you can get across the map very quickly.
The only problem is you need to land in water or stick the landing to avoid dying.
It seems counter intuitive, but the best way to survive the free fall is to actually slam
face first into the pavement.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare – Surviving Spaceland
Ah zombie mode; the saving grace of the lather, rinse, repeat Call of Duty franchise.
Surviving zombie mode alone is no easy feat, but we've found a method to help you along.
Starting between scenes 17 through 20, you can go to the teleporter platform in the center
of Cosmic Way and run in circles around it to get the zombies to follow behind you.
All of the zombies will come together in one big group chasing you, and you can slowly
pick them off by turning, shooting, and sprinting again.
If you kill too many at once, a lot more will spawn around the map and take you out, so
make sure you only kill a few at a time, and then corral the new ones as they join the
herd.

The History of the Mockbuster - Duration: 22:32.
Hi John Hess from FilmmakerIQ.com and today we'll dive in to the history of knock-off
cinema and the mockbuster.
We'll start our story at the close of the silent era.
By 1927 the Hollywood studios system was a well a defined industry dominated by a handful
of vertically integrated players that owned both the equipment and manpower to create
the movies as well as the theaters that screened to an eager public.
The average cost per film ranged from $190,000 at Fox to $275,000 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer - but
that was only an average as major event movies could cost upwards of a cool $1 million while
cheaper productions could be turned around quickly for only $50 grand.
These cheaper films allowed the studio to maximize the value from facilities and personnel
- to keep stages in constant use generating product while also serving as a training ground
for new talent.
Smaller major studios like Columbia Pictures and Universal Pictures focused mainly on these
smaller productions with shorter running timesaimed at small-town and urban neighborhood venues.
Below these major studio playors were the minors - even smaller production studios known
collectively as "Poverty Row".
These production houses focused on films where costs might run as low as $3,000.
Unlike the Majors who owned their own distribution and theaters, these productions sought profit
wherever they could, booking in small independent movie houses around the country.
When sound arrived, these independent movie houses began to adopt a new programming scheme
that would come to dominate in the 1930s.
Now keep in mind, this was long before the era of multiplexes,
most movie theaters had only a single screen.
Your ticket would buy you a newsreel followed by a short, serial or a cartoon and then a double feature.
The first film of the double feature was the main event -usually a film rented from the majors.
Being that these were independent theaters they couldn't get a shot at the first run
of these big films.
That was reserved exclusively for the studio owned theaters.
So these "A" pictures were second run screenings…
But that's where the second film in the double feature comes into play.
The "B" pictures, often the product of Poverty Row studios, were really inexpensive
- even cheaper to rent by the minute than the cartoons or shorts.
But they extended the amount of movie your ticket affords you - allowed the theater to
advertise on the quantity of entertainment - rather than the quality.
And during the Depression of the 1930s, this was a winning strategy.
Despite early resistance to this programming scheme, even the major studios theater chains
began to adopted this bifurcated model and established "B" units to provide films
for the double feature market.
Out of this came a practice known as Block booking.
To get access to a studio's prestige "A" pictures, these independent exhibitors had
to buy a block of B-pictures rented out as a flat fee often sight unseen.
The price of these B-pictures could be set to ensure profitability of the film regardless
of the quality or demand.
Now these weren't great films - theaters would rotate the billing every few days to
keep patrons coming back.
Even with the major studios in the game the demand for B-films was insatiable.
By 1935, B movie production made up 50% of Warner Bros' output - Fox joined ranks also
dedicating half of it's output to B films.
Counting the 300 or so films made annually by Poverty Row studios, 75% of the Golden
Era of Hollywood's output was low budget B movies.
In other words three out of every four movies of this so called
Golden Era of Hollywood were straight up cash grabs.
Most of these were Westerns but the out of this we also did get the hard boiled pulp
fiction crime movie - the basis of film noir.
Now, no one sets out to make a bad film, a theory that we might put to the test later,
but as long as the money was all but guaranteed, there isn't much, outside pride, to making
the films better.
Then two major changes shook up the industry effectively killing the cash cow.
The first was a 1945 Supreme Court Ruling in United States v. Paramount Pictures, Inc.
which forced the Big studios to divest their holdings in theaters and change the practice of selling films.
The guarantee of profit through pre sold theaters was over and the independent theaters could
at least have access to the big prestigious films during their first run..
And then came Television.
This double whammy sent movie ticket sales into a spiral dropping 50% in the decade after 1946.
The majors countered with spectacle - lavish color, 3D, widescreen, surround sound - things
you couldn't get on your set top at home.
The minors turned to sensationalism and exploitation - films that tackled the taboo, underserved
niches, or just a popular special interest..
And sometimes that popular special interest happens to be another popular and sucessful big movie.
A mockbuster is a low budget film designed to exploit the marketing and buzz surrounding
a large prestigious studio film.
Now we can't be sure when the first mockbuster hit movie theaters as B-pictures during the
Golden Age of Hollywood were rarely written about.
But this mockbuster practice of copying big hit movies probably got it's legs at the
end of the 1950s especially in the horror and sci-fi genres which at the time were staples
of low budget productions.
One of the earliest examples is The Monster of Piedras Blancas from 1959 - a direct knock
off of Creature from the Black Lagoon of 1954 from the so called "Gill Man" horror cycle.
The Monster of Piedras Blancas even produced by Jack Kevan who worked on the suit for Creature
from the Black Lagoon as well as other monsters when he was under contract Universal-International.
Kevan was able to score some sweetheart deals for equipment from his former employer as
Universal was going through money troubles and wanted to help their former technicians
find work in independent film.
Well after a couple unsuccessful movies Kevan left the film business and started a cosmetic company.
Another example of early mockbusters comes in 1965's Village of the Giants which capitalized
on the giant woman craze started with 1958's Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman.
Combining elements of beach party, Village of Giants was directed by Bert I. Gordon who
has a string of shrinking or giants B films in his filmography which is ironic given his
initials are B.I.G.
In the late 70s with the rise of grindhouse cinema - named so after converted burlesque
theaters that used to feature bump and grind dances - we see a whole ecosystem of exploitation
B-films coming into being with the erosion of the Production Codes and censorship.
Roger Corman, the king of B-pictures, produced a Piranha in 1978 one of the many many shark/fish
films aimed at capitalizing on 1975's Jaws - which many considered the first modern blockbuster.
Then came Star Wars in 1977 which ushered in a series of space operas including Starcrash
in 1979 and Battle Beyond the Stars 1980.
On the heels of Ridley Scott's 1979 Alien, the director of Starcrash Luigi Cozzi offered
his take in the mockbuster Contamination.
Steven Spielberg's unparalleled track record means he often finds his work the subject
of mockbuster throughout the eighties and nineties: ET, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and
Jurassic Park all spawned mockbusters but none perhaps as lauagably memorable as Mac
and Me in 1988.
These films, and many more which we won't list, at best could be said to be merely copying an idea.
It wasn't until the 90s when you had a fully matured home video market did companies started
to use mockbusters to draft off the marketing event film.
The first target was Disney's Second golden age.
GoodTimes Entertainment, founded in 1984 by Kenneth, Joseph and Stanley Cayre began originally
as a distributor of public domain films but by the 90s their business strategy comprised
of knock-off straight-to-video animated movies like Cinderella (1994), Leo the Lion: King
of the Jungle (1994), The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) Alice in Wonderland (1995) Pocahontas:
The Legend (1995) Hercules (1995) and Jungle Book (1995).
There must not have been that much money in it because the company folded in 2005.
But mockbuster animation has been alive in will with Video Brinquedo - a Brazilian CGI
animation studio that picked the slack producing The Little Cars (2006), Ratatoing (2007),
The Little Panda Fighter and Tiny Robots.
And now we come to the company that all of you are waiting for me to talk about: Asylum.
Founded in 1997 by David Michael Latt, David Rimawi and Sherri Strain, Asylum started in
the direct to video horror business.
Competition was fierce and the company could never get a solid foothold.
In 2005 Asylum produced a low budget adaptationof H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds - which
happened to be released the same year as Steven Spielberg's version - Spielberg keeps popping up.
On the title alone Blockbuster Video ordered 100,000 copies, significantly outselling all
their company's previous films - Latt and Rimawi began to reconsider their business
model in favor of mockbusters or what they called "tie ins"
And boy did they tie in: Asylum would go on to produce.

and In the Name of Ben Hur
And that's only the ones we have so far but Asylum has seen some success in original
films like the classic Sharknado,
Sharknado 2: The Second One
and Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No.
While American mockbusters a great source of cheesy fun, it's the international mockbusters
that take the cake for pure daring and boldness when it comes to knock-off cinema.
Low budget foreign produced illegitimate remakes or sequels are often only known to the locals,
never to be released outside of their original country - that is until the internet happened.
These mockbusters come from all over: from Denmark's only monster movie - Reptillicus
was made to capitalize on the Godzilla craze in 1961:
From Indonesia, we have the classic Lady Terminator released in 1989 about an Indonesian spirit
using the body of her enemy's granddaughter to fulfill a 100-year-old curse of death and destruction.
To mockbusters of Bollywood in 1993's Mahakaal - India's take on Nightmare on Elm Street.
And even Nigeria which has no film industry to speak of and electricity is spotty at best
- a small cottage industry made possible by digital video gives us Masoyiyata in 2003
which is a retelling of James Cameron's Titanic.
It's hard not to have at least a soft spot for some of these as they are not much more
harmless than fan films for local audiences.
But when it comes to international knock-offs - one country reigns supreme - Turkey.
From Turkish ET, Turkish Superman, Turkish Spiderman, Turkish Star Trek, Turkish Wizard
of Oz and even a Turkish Psycho - spoilor alert - it's a musical.
For economic reasons the Turkish are kings of the Hollywood mockbuster.
But to me, nothing approaches the sheer brilliance of 'The Man who saves the World' - otherwise
known as "Turkish Star Wars" - I promise I did not doctor any of this clip:
So the obvious question is: How is this all this even legal?
The success of these mockbusters are based on "drafting opportunity" - a term borrowed
from aeronautics which mean you ride the slipstream behind a larger object to save energy in this
case riding the marketing of a popular movie to generate sales.
In animation, a big studio could spend four years in production with hundreds of artists
whereas a small studio can ride that success churning out a film in six months by a handful
of artists.
Large tent pole Live Action movies today have the same multi-year production schedule which
gives small nimble studios the same drafting advantage.
How do they get away with it?
Well the most basic answer to the legal question is you can't copyright an idea or a title.
If you wanted an animated movie about Aladdin, you can because it's a public domain story.
However you can't start pulling in details from the Disney classic.
And that was the subject of a lawsuit between Disney and Goodtimes Entertainment who released
their version of Aladdin in Videocassette a few months before the Disney version hit
the theaters.
Well the federal court settled in favor of Goodtimes noting such differences as the golden
mustachioed genie as opposed to a blue goateed genie in the Disney version.
So as long as the stories and productions are substantially different and in most cases
that's a necessity because of budget - there is no legal complications.
However, producers of mockbusters have to be weary of walking the fine line into false advertising.
In 2013 Phase 4 Films retitled their animation "The Legend of Sirilla" to ride the wave
of a Disney bohemeth: calling the French animated feature "Frozen Land".
The move landed the film in court with Disney rightfully arguing that the logos were too
similar - and if you look at them side by side - they have a pretty strong case.
The case was settled in 2014 with Phase 4 reverting back to the original title, paying
$100,000 and promising to make "all practicable efforts" to remove copies of Frozen Land from
stores and online distributors.
And it's not just animation.
In 2012 Warner Bros. took everyone's favorite mockbuster studio to court over "Age of
Hobbits" - unlike fairytales, Tolkein's writings were exclusively licensed to Warner Brothers.
Asylum claimed that they were justified in using the word "Hobbit" as it was a generic name.
But Warner's provided evidence in the form of surveys done by Nielsen National Research
Group that showed approximately 16 to 24 percent of survey respondents were confused about
the source of Age of the Hobbits.
The evidence against Asylum was strong enough to win over the judge and Asylum released
the film under the name Clash of Empires.
Now in the case of those foreign knock offs with wholesale infringement… well you can't
squeeze blood from a stone.
The Mockbuster is a self referential sign of a mature media culture - Where there is
a large culturally important film and there is money to be made, there will be mockbusters.
But in our little exploration of the history of film, I hope you've learned that cash
grabs are not unique to our or any time period.
And even sometimes in the least likely of places, you can see the indomitable human
spirit yearning to tell and hear stories.
Stories that eventually become legends and part of our shared human experience.
Be a part of that legend or just be part of the narrative of humanity - go out and tell
your story - make something great.

Losing Strength While Cutting? 5 Quick Fixes - Duration: 10:50.
What's going on, guys?
Sean Nalewanyj, www.SeanNal.com and today I'm going to be outlining five main tips
you should follow if you are losing strength while cutting.
Unless you're going through a prolong cutting phase and you're dropping a large amount
of overall bodyweight or you're cutting down temporarily to a very lean bodyfat percentage
for a certain event then you really shouldn't be losing much strength if your fatloss plan
is properly structured.
You should be able to at least maintain your strength throughout the beginning phases and
if you are going to lose strength it should only be happening as you get deeper into the
cut, and even then it should be modest.
You know, maybe losing a couple reps on smaller isolation lifts and maybe a very modest reduction
in weight on those larger compound lifts.
It does depend on how much total bodyweight you're losing and how lean you're trying
to get, of course.
If you're a two hundred and thirty pound power lifter who decides to lean down to a
hundred and ninety pounds then obviously you can expect to lose a more significant amount
of strength just from a decrease in your overall leverages.
Or let's say you're cutting down to seven percent bodyfat for a contest then obviously
you're going to be more depleted overall and that's going to affect your strength
more so.
But for most average lifters doing a standard moderate cutting phase, strength loss should
be minor if anything.
Some people can fully maintain their strength while cutting and others can even gain some
strength, especially if they're still a relative beginner.
So if you are feeling considerably weaker and your weights are decreasing rapidly it
definitely should be a cause for concern and it's a pretty clear sign that there is something
wrong with the structure of your program and that you're putting yourself at risk for
excessive muscle loss.
So, five aspects of your program to take a look at if this is the case for you.
So, the first is the most basic and the most obvious one, and that is that your daily calorie
intake is simply too low.
So if you drop your calories too low then your ability to recover in between workouts
is going to be compromised and you'll also have less resources available to fuel your
actual training performance.
More aggressive deficits are usually okay in the short term for some people if it's
only being done for a few weeks but eventually it will catch up to you.
So if you're losing strength on a cut then take a look at your daily calorie intake and
take a look at how quickly you are losing body weight from week to week.
For most people a standard five hundred calorie deficit is going to be a good balance between
losing fat at a decent pace but also maintaining muscle size and strength.
And if you're losing any more than about one to two pounds per week on an ongoing basis
then you'll probably want to up your calories a bit until you're falling somewhere within
that range.
Those who are more overweight and were carrying more fat can usually get away with losing
weight a bit quicker, whereas if you're already within a healthy bodyfat range and
you're just trying to cut down leaner while maintaining as much size and strength as possible
closer to about one pound per week is going to be more appropriate for you.
The second thing to look at is your macro nutrient breakdown.
So you don't need to obsess over every single gram of protein, carbs and fats that you're
eating everyday but if there is a glaring imbalance in there it definitely can have
a negative effect on your strength levels.
For example, if protein is too low then you won't properly recover in between workouts.
And if it's too high then your carbohydrate intake is probably going to end up too low
in which case your workout performance is going to suffer.
If fat is too high then either protein or carbs could be too low, and if fat is too
low then your hormone levels are going to fall out of balance and you're going to
feel a lot worse physically and mentally and that could impact your workouts as well.
So again, this doesn't need to be perfect but during a focused cutting phase your macro
nutrient breakdown does become a bit more important because you have fewer total calories
to work with and there's a better chance that one of the three will end up too low.
So to make sure that you're getting enough protein for adequate recovery, enough carbs
to fuel your workouts and enough fat to keep your brain function an your motivation in
check a good basic breakdown is to go with 0.8 to one gram of protein per pound of bodyweight
daily, you don't need more protein than this even if you are cutting.
Get twenty-five percent of your total calories from fat and then fill in the remaining calories
with carbs and if you're not sure how to calculate this then I'll put it in the description
box below for you to check out.
Just try to land somewhere around those numbers and your chance of losing strength while cutting
or losing muscle is going to be much lower.
Tip number three to maintain strength while cutting is don't go overboard on cardio.
So I always recommend that people include some cardio during the week not just as a
way of burning additional calories and preventing your calorie intake from having to drop too
low but also just for overall physical and mental health.
But a lot of people do tend to get a bit excessive with it during the fatloss phase.
You don't need to be running on the treadmill five or six days a week in order to lose fat
and if you do perform too much cardio you're going to be interfering with your recovery
weight training.
Remember that since you're in a calorie deficit, your recovery ability is already
lower than normal.
And that's going to make it much more likely that you will lose strength, especially if
you perform your cardio pre-workout, which I don't recommend doing.
So a bit of cardio is fine but I wouldn't recommend exceeding three weekly session as
a starting point and try to do it separately from weight training if you can or at the
very least do it post workout.
And only increase your cardio frequency from there if it becomes necessary later on in
your cut.
Tip number four is to keep your basic weight training approach the same as it was when
you were bulking.
A lot of lifters fall into the trap of thinking that heavier weight compound exercises for
lower reps builds muscle and lighter weight isolation exercises for higher reps burns
fat and shapes the muscle, which is totally false because you can't spot reduce fat
from specific areas of your body and the only thing you can actually do with weight training
is to make a particular muscle as a whole bigger or smaller.
Muscle definition is just a product of your overall bodyfat percentage in combination
with how much total muscle mass you're carrying and it has nothing to do with which specific
exercises you perform or how many reps you're doing per set.
So if you do switch to a light weight high rep plan, all you're really doing is weakening
the overall training stimulus which is going to cause you to lose strength and lose muscle
mass much more quickly.
And tip number five, if the previous four points are taken care of, so you're eating
in only a moderate calorie deficit with a reasonably balance macro nutrient breakdown,
you're not performing too much cardio and you're continuing to train in the gym with
basic moderate to heavyweight sets as the foundation of your workouts.
If you're doing all of that and you're still losing strength quickly you can try
cutting back on your overall training volume.
It's not always necessary to reduce your training volume during a cut because it does
depend on how much you were doing in the first place as well as other factors but if your
strength is continuing to drop try cutting your total workload by about twenty-five percent
to start and then see if that helps.
Remember that your primary goal during a cut is to provide enough training stimulus to
maintain your existing muscle and so you don't need to be in the gym six days a week with
high volume workouts in order to do that since your recovery resource is going to be limited
in the calorie deficit and performing too much work can actually start to work against
you if you aren't careful.
So those are the five main tips I'd give if you find that you are losing strength on
a cut.
And as long as those are taken care of it should correct things for you.
If you really want to fully optimize thing though I'll give you three more smaller
quick tips here that you can employ as well before I close out the video.
The first is that if you are currently training in the morning you can try moving your workouts
into the later afternoon or the evening if it does suit your schedule.
And the reason for that is because strength levels do technically peak later on in the
day and that could help to give you a small extra boost.
The second is to start incorporating a weekly re-feed day into your plan.
I'll link a post that I did on that in the description box but this is basically where
you just eat at your calorie maintenance level once a week with the increase coming from
carbs.
And then take that re-feed day and position it the day before your most challenging workout
of the week.
Or you could even do this twice a week depending on how deep you are into your cut and how
lean you're trying to get.
And then lastly if you currently don't use anything other than regular food as your pre
workout fuel you can try incorporating a basic pre workout supplement stack into your program
as well in order to up your performance a bit.
Caffeine being the most effective but I will link a video in the description box that I
did a while back that outlines my recommended homemade pre workout stack.
So I hope these tips were helpful.

Dragons Lair Update - MSOC Howard CC vs Montgomery College Highlights - Duration: 6:07.
Howard Community College takes on arch rival Montgomery College in the seasons most highly
anticipated regular season matchup.
Howard enters the contest with a four-and-four record, and the dragons are searching for
consistency in a season that has shown flashes of promise.
The Howard-MC rivalry is slowly regaining
its magic. The raptors and dragons battled to a draw last season.
However, Montgomery has 5 wins over the dragons dating back to 2012. Three of those were playoff
wins.
Soccer analyst David Awasum is back for this region 20 showdown. David, how can Howard
get its long-awaited win over the raptors?
David: Well when you come into a tough game like this against a team like the Raptors,
the way Howard's really going to be successful
Is they come in and they're very compact defensively. They can't leave spaces in the mid field or
the back line.
They also going to be, need to be very dangerous on set pieces when they win them, take advantage
of those corner kicks and free kicks
Gary: Montgomery college enters the match with 5 wins, 4 losses and two draws on the
season.
Three of its losses, however, came against ranked teams. The raptors have won four consecutive
region 20 championships.
David, what do you expect to see from Montgomery?
David: Well Montgomery comes into this matchup as definitely the favorites.
What I look for them to come in with is just to establish that possession game. They have
very good mid fielders who are also very comfortable on the ball.
They also look to use the speed in those wide positions, and I, isolate the outside backs
from Howard, making it very hard
They've played tough competition all year long in a nationally ranked schedule, so it's
going to be very hard for Howard to get this win today,
But I expect Montgomery coming in full strength and ready to go.
Gary: Howard battles Montgomery College next. Let's go to the highlights.
David: On this build of play, MC is looking to switch the ball quickly so they can isolate
their winger in a wide position to see if they can get service into the box for their
forward.
Gary: Mama Bou Sessay with time on the ball. Here it comes from Sessay, eyeing Bryan Reyes-Aranda.
David: Very skillful turn from Reyes-Aranda and he got a quick reaction shot.
Gary: Set piece for MC. Chris Rivera will take it.
Finds Sebastian Soto, to Alejandro Avalos! Montgomery College jumps out to an early lead.
Avalos' diving effort gives the raptors control here early
David: What MC is looking to do here is look for the back post runner, and see if he can
flick the ball back across goal to any oncoming runners for a finish.
Howard's defenders fall asleep on the oncoming runners down the middle, so once the flick
occurs, it's an easy header.
Gary: Throw-in deep in the final third for Howard. Oluwatobi Osifeso.
Christopher Rolon. Beautiful cross! The header gets it out of the box. Falls right to Colin
Serio. No! It's off the crossbar.
MC in possession. Ball is won by Osifeso, through to Izzy Ebenezer. Still Ebenezer,
makes him miss, Ebenezer! Not enough pace on that one.
But we're seeing Osifeso and Ebenezer starting to create chances for the dragons.
Gary: The momentum is starting to shift in favor of coach Draganov's side. Konstantinou
secures possession for Howard.
That's poor from the MC back, but he redeems him self in a crucial spot. Howard's playing
with belief.
Serio, high up the pitch, plays it to Ebenezer.
Will not be denied, it's all Ebenezer on the end line. Wins the ball, keeps it in, Ebenezer!
Off target, but he's turning up the pressure on that MC back line.
Later in the first half, Daniel Morales. Izzy Ebenezer.
Through to Oluwatobi Osifeso. Sends it in. Not an effective clear from the MC center
back. Osifeso wins it back for Howard!
Osifeso! Deflected, and it's Shaheed Twyman! We're level. Stunning piece of work, David,
from the dragons.
David: The buildup starts with an excellent diagonal run from Osifeso, to put him in a
position to get service in the box.
What comes of it is a poor clearance from the MC center back, which allows him to win
possession back and keep MC right under pressure.
Also nice feet by Osifeso to beat the defender. Very hard working goal by Osifeso's persistence.
Gary: 30 seconds till the half, throw in for Montgomery college. Diego Melendez-Sosa doesn't
get it under control.
And guess who's there to make him pay. Osifeso leading the counter with 20 seconds remaining.
Stops and goes to Ebenezer.
Still Izzy Ebenezer! Sees the run of Edgardo Gonzalez! Gorgeous cross! Dragons take the
lead!
David Osifeso again with a tremendous switch of play to Ebenezer. This is a professional
switch.
Ebenezer, who then in a 1-v-1 situation skins the Montgomery defender and plays an excellent
ball in to be finished.
Gary: Second half now. Morales, on to take the set piece for Howard.
That's Ebenezer! 3-1 Howard.
David: Tremendous service on the set piece by Morales. He puts the ball in a place where
the goalkeeper is indecisive.
And then just a cool finish by, from Ebenezer. Good finish
Gary: Howard beats MC for the first time since 2012. Dragons win it, 3-1

TOKYO'S ADVENTURE 1/2 - Vlog #8 | From A2U World - a Parkour Documentary - Duration: 12:00.
Ready?
We just arrived in Japan, and now we're taking the metro to the hostel.
We are in Japaaaaaan !!!
We arrived a while ago at the hostel but we're stuck at the reception,
because it's 2 AM and obviously there's no one left at the reception.
And they were supposed to leave us keys,
like for the person right here.
But... After a few tries to call the emergency number (Kevin is speaking with them)
We figured out that we made a mistake in the booking, so we booked the hostel for tomorrow.
So now we have to sleep in the living room...
Pretty nice place!
It's 6.30 AM in Tokyo
Sun started to rise,
I just finished Cambodian's vlog subtitles.
And I didn't sleep this night simply because we didn't have any bedroom,
we explained why before.
So I'm gonna try to sleep a little, Kevin and Dylan are already sleeping... in the... living room.
I wonder how people are gonna react when they'll see us here... Let's see!
After a long hesitation, I went out.
I didn't sleep this night,
and I'm gonna enjoy the sunrise to fly the drone and record some street stuff,
with the beautiful light of the golden hour.
Since we started the trip, we almost didn't see the sun,
now I think it's the perfect timing so I forced myself to go out, it's not very warm out here.
I'm gonna fly the drone, let's see how it goes.
I flew the drone during all the battery life.
And it was pretty hard because in Tokyo there's a hell of parasitic waves.
So I lost the signal of the drone a few times,
and it's not very easy when you're getting the shot and you loose the signal.
Anyway, I think I got a few nice shots!
Now let's make some photos and videos with the last bit of sunrise I got!
And then maybe I'm gonna go sleep, or not...
While walking I randomly found a Japanese temple, it's pretty nice!
We're in Tokyo and we lost Yoann "Chan".
It's dark like a dead rat (?!)
It's dark like your assh*le !
It's dark like a dead rat in your assh*le ! (?!)
It's sh*t!
-Kevin how do you feel to be fucked like that?
-It's f*cking fake machines I had it!
We're in Tokyo in the train station and we can't find the exit!
We want to go out but we can't, we lost ourselves there...
Sylvaiiiin... Where are you?!
We found him!
I just ordered something to eat at a machine... Like in a "selecta" machine.
And I got a ticket which is like a train ticket... So I don't know if I'm gonna have some food or take the train!
I ordered my food in 2 seconds, but Sylvain... How many minutes did that take you?
-I don't know but I'm already eating!
Hello! I film myself because since we arrived I filmed everyone but not me,
so I want to be in the Vlog too.
I'm loving that! I'm in Japan, there's a lot of buildings,
here we're in Tokyo centre and there's only buildings!
Sylvain, that joined us today, Mr "Suisse Moi" set a challenge:
we offer something to one of us, and we can take whatever we want! Apart for fish, no fish.
What a shitty idea!
My challenge Sylvain, I found this:
I have no idea what it is but it makes me think of crap.
OK, here are the challenges! Don't know what it will be.
It looks "delicious"!
How! That's tasty in reality!
So, was it tasty?
It was great! Very "natural"
We finished our degustation challenge.
Yoann won, his thing was really awful!
Tonight's gonna be nice on the toilets!
So we made a tactical change,
I gave the camera to Dylan and I took the GoPro. So he's gonna try to make pictures.
We'll see how he does! And I'm gonna film for the vlog,
which is pretty boring to do but anyway!
Before we couldn't find the exit, now we can't even find the train station!
Do you remember the warthog in Bangkok?
Well let me introduce you to his grandfather! Fossilized in bronze.
His name is "hwwwj".
Look at his balls,
that's some serious shit!
Do you see this f*ckin' teddy?
It's pissing us off since the beginning of the trip!
Romy is gonna kill you when we'll be back!
Yoann you don't have any legs!
We found a potential roof to take some nice pics and videos.
So let's check if it's possible to climb or not!

The History of the Mockbuster - Duration: 22:32.Hi John Hess from FilmmakerIQ.com and today we'll dive in to the history of knock-off
cinema and the mockbuster.
We'll start our story at the close of the silent era.
By 1927 the Hollywood studios system was a well a defined industry dominated by a handful
of vertically integrated players that owned both the equipment and manpower to create
the movies as well as the theaters that screened to an eager public.
The average cost per film ranged from $190,000 at Fox to $275,000 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer - but
that was only an average as major event movies could cost upwards of a cool $1 million while
cheaper productions could be turned around quickly for only $50 grand.
These cheaper films allowed the studio to maximize the value from facilities and personnel
- to keep stages in constant use generating product while also serving as a training ground
for new talent.
Smaller major studios like Columbia Pictures and Universal Pictures focused mainly on these
smaller productions with shorter running timesaimed at small-town and urban neighborhood venues.
Below these major studio playors were the minors - even smaller production studios known
collectively as "Poverty Row".
These production houses focused on films where costs might run as low as $3,000.
Unlike the Majors who owned their own distribution and theaters, these productions sought profit
wherever they could, booking in small independent movie houses around the country.
When sound arrived, these independent movie houses began to adopt a new programming scheme
that would come to dominate in the 1930s.
Now keep in mind, this was long before the era of multiplexes,
most movie theaters had only a single screen.
Your ticket would buy you a newsreel followed by a short, serial or a cartoon and then a double feature.
The first film of the double feature was the main event -usually a film rented from the majors.
Being that these were independent theaters they couldn't get a shot at the first run
of these big films.
That was reserved exclusively for the studio owned theaters.
So these "A" pictures were second run screenings…
But that's where the second film in the double feature comes into play.
The "B" pictures, often the product of Poverty Row studios, were really inexpensive
- even cheaper to rent by the minute than the cartoons or shorts.
But they extended the amount of movie your ticket affords you - allowed the theater to
advertise on the quantity of entertainment - rather than the quality.
And during the Depression of the 1930s, this was a winning strategy.
Despite early resistance to this programming scheme, even the major studios theater chains
began to adopted this bifurcated model and established "B" units to provide films
for the double feature market.
Out of this came a practice known as Block booking.
To get access to a studio's prestige "A" pictures, these independent exhibitors had
to buy a block of B-pictures rented out as a flat fee often sight unseen.
The price of these B-pictures could be set to ensure profitability of the film regardless
of the quality or demand.
Now these weren't great films - theaters would rotate the billing every few days to
keep patrons coming back.
Even with the major studios in the game the demand for B-films was insatiable.
By 1935, B movie production made up 50% of Warner Bros' output - Fox joined ranks also
dedicating half of it's output to B films.
Counting the 300 or so films made annually by Poverty Row studios, 75% of the Golden
Era of Hollywood's output was low budget B movies.
In other words three out of every four movies of this so called
Golden Era of Hollywood were straight up cash grabs.
Most of these were Westerns but the out of this we also did get the hard boiled pulp
fiction crime movie - the basis of film noir.
Now, no one sets out to make a bad film, a theory that we might put to the test later,
but as long as the money was all but guaranteed, there isn't much, outside pride, to making
the films better.
Then two major changes shook up the industry effectively killing the cash cow.
The first was a 1945 Supreme Court Ruling in United States v. Paramount Pictures, Inc.
which forced the Big studios to divest their holdings in theaters and change the practice of selling films.
The guarantee of profit through pre sold theaters was over and the independent theaters could
at least have access to the big prestigious films during their first run..
And then came Television.
This double whammy sent movie ticket sales into a spiral dropping 50% in the decade after 1946.
The majors countered with spectacle - lavish color, 3D, widescreen, surround sound - things
you couldn't get on your set top at home.
The minors turned to sensationalism and exploitation - films that tackled the taboo, underserved
niches, or just a popular special interest..
And sometimes that popular special interest happens to be another popular and sucessful big movie.
A mockbuster is a low budget film designed to exploit the marketing and buzz surrounding
a large prestigious studio film.
Now we can't be sure when the first mockbuster hit movie theaters as B-pictures during the
Golden Age of Hollywood were rarely written about.
But this mockbuster practice of copying big hit movies probably got it's legs at the
end of the 1950s especially in the horror and sci-fi genres which at the time were staples
of low budget productions.
One of the earliest examples is The Monster of Piedras Blancas from 1959 - a direct knock
off of Creature from the Black Lagoon of 1954 from the so called "Gill Man" horror cycle.
The Monster of Piedras Blancas even produced by Jack Kevan who worked on the suit for Creature
from the Black Lagoon as well as other monsters when he was under contract Universal-International.
Kevan was able to score some sweetheart deals for equipment from his former employer as
Universal was going through money troubles and wanted to help their former technicians
find work in independent film.
Well after a couple unsuccessful movies Kevan left the film business and started a cosmetic company.
Another example of early mockbusters comes in 1965's Village of the Giants which capitalized
on the giant woman craze started with 1958's Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman.
Combining elements of beach party, Village of Giants was directed by Bert I. Gordon who
has a string of shrinking or giants B films in his filmography which is ironic given his
initials are B.I.G.
In the late 70s with the rise of grindhouse cinema - named so after converted burlesque
theaters that used to feature bump and grind dances - we see a whole ecosystem of exploitation
B-films coming into being with the erosion of the Production Codes and censorship.
Roger Corman, the king of B-pictures, produced a Piranha in 1978 one of the many many shark/fish
films aimed at capitalizing on 1975's Jaws - which many considered the first modern blockbuster.
Then came Star Wars in 1977 which ushered in a series of space operas including Starcrash
in 1979 and Battle Beyond the Stars 1980.
On the heels of Ridley Scott's 1979 Alien, the director of Starcrash Luigi Cozzi offered
his take in the mockbuster Contamination.
Steven Spielberg's unparalleled track record means he often finds his work the subject
of mockbuster throughout the eighties and nineties: ET, Raiders of the Lost Ark, and
Jurassic Park all spawned mockbusters but none perhaps as lauagably memorable as Mac
and Me in 1988.
These films, and many more which we won't list, at best could be said to be merely copying an idea.
It wasn't until the 90s when you had a fully matured home video market did companies started
to use mockbusters to draft off the marketing event film.
The first target was Disney's Second golden age.
GoodTimes Entertainment, founded in 1984 by Kenneth, Joseph and Stanley Cayre began originally
as a distributor of public domain films but by the 90s their business strategy comprised
of knock-off straight-to-video animated movies like Cinderella (1994), Leo the Lion: King
of the Jungle (1994), The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) Alice in Wonderland (1995) Pocahontas:
The Legend (1995) Hercules (1995) and Jungle Book (1995).
There must not have been that much money in it because the company folded in 2005.
But mockbuster animation has been alive in will with Video Brinquedo - a Brazilian CGI
animation studio that picked the slack producing The Little Cars (2006), Ratatoing (2007),
The Little Panda Fighter and Tiny Robots.
And now we come to the company that all of you are waiting for me to talk about: Asylum.
Founded in 1997 by David Michael Latt, David Rimawi and Sherri Strain, Asylum started in
the direct to video horror business.
Competition was fierce and the company could never get a solid foothold.
In 2005 Asylum produced a low budget adaptationof H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds - which
happened to be released the same year as Steven Spielberg's version - Spielberg keeps popping up.
On the title alone Blockbuster Video ordered 100,000 copies, significantly outselling all
their company's previous films - Latt and Rimawi began to reconsider their business
model in favor of mockbusters or what they called "tie ins"
And boy did they tie in: Asylum would go on to produce.

Sharknado 2: The Second One
and Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No.
While American mockbusters a great source of cheesy fun, it's the international mockbusters
that take the cake for pure daring and boldness when it comes to knock-off cinema.
Low budget foreign produced illegitimate remakes or sequels are often only known to the locals,
never to be released outside of their original country - that is until the internet happened.
These mockbusters come from all over: from Denmark's only monster movie - Reptillicus
was made to capitalize on the Godzilla craze in 1961:
From Indonesia, we have the classic Lady Terminator released in 1989 about an Indonesian spirit
using the body of her enemy's granddaughter to fulfill a 100-year-old curse of death and destruction.
To mockbusters of Bollywood in 1993's Mahakaal - India's take on Nightmare on Elm Street.
And even Nigeria which has no film industry to speak of and electricity is spotty at best
- a small cottage industry made possible by digital video gives us Masoyiyata in 2003
which is a retelling of James Cameron's Titanic.
It's hard not to have at least a soft spot for some of these as they are not much more
harmless than fan films for local audiences.
But when it comes to international knock-offs - one country reigns supreme - Turkey.
From Turkish ET, Turkish Superman, Turkish Spiderman, Turkish Star Trek, Turkish Wizard
of Oz and even a Turkish Psycho - spoilor alert - it's a musical.
For economic reasons the Turkish are kings of the Hollywood mockbuster.
But to me, nothing approaches the sheer brilliance of 'The Man who saves the World' - otherwise
known as "Turkish Star Wars" - I promise I did not doctor any of this clip:
So the obvious question is: How is this all this even legal?
The success of these mockbusters are based on "drafting opportunity" - a term borrowed
from aeronautics which mean you ride the slipstream behind a larger object to save energy in this
case riding the marketing of a popular movie to generate sales.
In animation, a big studio could spend four years in production with hundreds of artists
whereas a small studio can ride that success churning out a film in six months by a handful
of artists.
Large tent pole Live Action movies today have the same multi-year production schedule which
gives small nimble studios the same drafting advantage.
How do they get away with it?
Well the most basic answer to the legal question is you can't copyright an idea or a title.
If you wanted an animated movie about Aladdin, you can because it's a public domain story.
However you can't start pulling in details from the Disney classic.
And that was the subject of a lawsuit between Disney and Goodtimes Entertainment who released
their version of Aladdin in Videocassette a few months before the Disney version hit
the theaters.
Well the federal court settled in favor of Goodtimes noting such differences as the golden
mustachioed genie as opposed to a blue goateed genie in the Disney version.
So as long as the stories and productions are substantially different and in most cases
that's a necessity because of budget - there is no legal complications.
However, producers of mockbusters have to be weary of walking the fine line into false advertising.
In 2013 Phase 4 Films retitled their animation "The Legend of Sirilla" to ride the wave
of a Disney bohemeth: calling the French animated feature "Frozen Land".
The move landed the film in court with Disney rightfully arguing that the logos were too
similar - and if you look at them side by side - they have a pretty strong case.
The case was settled in 2014 with Phase 4 reverting back to the original title, paying
$100,000 and promising to make "all practicable efforts" to remove copies of Frozen Land from
stores and online distributors.
And it's not just animation.
In 2012 Warner Bros. took everyone's favorite mockbuster studio to court over "Age of
Hobbits" - unlike fairytales, Tolkein's writings were exclusively licensed to Warner Brothers.
Asylum claimed that they were justified in using the word "Hobbit" as it was a generic name.
But Warner's provided evidence in the form of surveys done by Nielsen National Research
Group that showed approximately 16 to 24 percent of survey respondents were confused about
the source of Age of the Hobbits.
The evidence against Asylum was strong enough to win over the judge and Asylum released
the film under the name Clash of Empires.
Now in the case of those foreign knock offs with wholesale infringement… well you can't
squeeze blood from a stone.
The Mockbuster is a self referential sign of a mature media culture - Where there is
a large culturally important film and there is money to be made, there will be mockbusters.
But in our little exploration of the history of film, I hope you've learned that cash
grabs are not unique to our or any time period.
And even sometimes in the least likely of places, you can see the indomitable human
spirit yearning to tell and hear stories.
Stories that eventually become legends and part of our shared human experience.
Be a part of that legend or just be part of the narrative of humanity - go out and tell
your story - make something great.

I'm a Feminist and PROUD! || Maddie vs. Anti-Feminism - Duration: 4:55.
There's been a lot of talk on my social media about feminism versus anti-feminism and you
know I just wanted to clear the air here.
*deep breath* Hell yeah I'm a feminist!
So first off, just to clear the air again, feminists do not hate men.
If they do hate men, they are not feminists they are misandrists.
All feminists want is equality with men.
We don't want to be the dominant gender.
We don't want a dominant gender.
We don't want people to be discriminated against because of their gender.
Now I was reading this great Odyssey Online article and it said something along the lines
of female athletics are not ridiculed.
As someone who played softball for fifteen years, that is the funniest goddamn thing
I ever heard of.
How come there's still a "female" in Serena Williams's title of "Best Athlete Ever"?
Why do we need to make that discrepency between a good athlete and a good female athlete?
We want to be put on the same playing board as the men.
You know, all throughout high school, I did workouts with the baseball team.
I was the only girl most of the time.
Do you know how hard it was to get the respect to actually be seen as a person in that class?
And it was all because I was a woman and I wasn't there to flirt with the boys or try
to make friends.
No!
I was there to [explicit] work-out!
This stupid article also said "Can you imagine being tackled by a 220 pound linebacker?"
YEAH!
I can!
My brother, a football player, did it to me all the time when we were kids!
And here's the thing too, here's the reason why most women cannot handle being tackled
by a 220 pound football player, okay?
It's because we're not encouraged to be big women.
Listen, I'm not a small woman.
I'm 5'9 and about...220 pounds as well?
And that's mostly leftover softball muscle, okay?
The extra 20 pounds are definitely the McDonald's runs.
Here are things people have said to me about my body: One, Oh!
Is that a man?
Two, Oh I have man shoulders too.
Three, Oh it's so unfortunate you're that tall.
I was born big, I'm always going to be big, I don't want to be small, I appreciate my
height, I appreciate my girth.
I mean, we have the three best gymnasts in the world and we have men having the audacity
to comment "Wow they're not attractive."
Bitch they ain't looking to be attractive!
They're looking to be the best damn gymnasts in the world.
Another myth that anti-feminists like to portray is that feminists do not support women who
choose to stay home and raise their kids.
That's a lie!
Real feminism supports stay-at-home moms.
They support parents that choose to stay home to raise their family.
True feminism fights for the choice to be able to do that or to be like me and focus
on your career and not really focus on raising a family or finding a husband or any of that
good stuff.
It's not an either-or.
And that's another stupid thing this article said is women have never been more respected
than now in the 21st century.
Hate to break it to you, dumb-dumb, but that's because of feminism.
Did you know a hundred years ago, women still couldn't vote?!
And that's because of feminism and the suffragists that marched and the suffragists that went
to jail for their right to vote.
And yes, America's doing really well with women's rights right now, especially white
American cisgendered women have it good.
But there's still a lot for improvement.
Now I agree with the notion that women do need to work, okay we cannot just sit around
and be like: Society, can you fix this for me?
I don't wanna, I don't really wanna work...
Take down all the men!
Put the women in power.
Great!
Great.
No.
Women do need to work.
But to help us feminists work for our equality and to help us fully find our own respect
through work and fighting for our own equality, we need respect.
It's sort of like how I've been doing YouTube for four years now.
I've finally hit my stretch where I am getting successful.
But there are still people in my life who still think this is just a lucky break, who
are discrediting the fact that I made a video every single week for two and a half years.
And the people who are discrediting this are men who believe that their channel that they've
had for just a year deserves to have the same success as mine.
Even though they're not even making videos every week.
They are not even making videos every month.
But they still think their channel should be on par with mine because mine's a lucky
break.
Because I'm pretty.
Because I apparently didn't work for this.
I just made smiley pretty faces and everyone started to love me.
No!
I [explicit] worked for this [explicit].
And yes I do have a lot of privilege because I am white, because I am not unattractive.
So if you believe that women should be equal to men, that women should work the same as
men, that women should be on the same playing field as men despite the consequences...Congrats.
You're a feminist.
Feminism just wants everyone to be equal.
We want the men on Covergirl.
We want the women being the best athletes in the world, not just the best "female" athletes.
Thank you for watching this video and now what are your thoughts about feminism?
Are you a feminist?
Why aren't you a feminist?
Please leave me a comment below.
We'll have a nice discussion.
Hopefully just a nice, person to person- Who am I kidding?
It's the YouTube comments.
We'll see what happens! *end theme* Thank you for watching this video!

Mystic messenger ZEN's voice actor (CV: Jang Kim) interview (ENG sub) 수상한 메신저: 젠 (김장)인터뷰 [Acorn 도토리] - Duration: 1:57.
Hello, everyone!!! Oh, my hands look so big! Hahaha~~
I am a voice actor Jang Kim acted Zen in the mobile game.
It's been a long time since I acted one of the game characters.
This time the character I acted was amazing.
My character is like god. Isn't Zen different from me? (Does Zen look like me?) Hahahahah~~^^
I really – thank you all.
Zen has perfect appearance and good voice like god. So I can't help being chosen as acting Zen. (Joke~~^^!!)
I acted enthusiastically to return fans' love back. Hahahahaha~~
I feel like flying at this moment when sound recording is over.
Can you see me flying?
Zen's lines that I acted were as huge as it's the first time I have acted as a voice actor.
I've finally found what freedom was when I finished recording lots of lines.
I think it'll be hard for a voice actor to get a chance to meet a good game like this.
Let's be into Zen!
And let's be into Jang.
Then this is Zeng-Jang. Hahaha~~joke~~!!! (Zen jang = shit ^^;)
This game will be worth as long as you waited for it.
And then thank you for waiting for this game.

Isn't it old song? Hahahahaha~~
Are you excited about it?

How Chris Hogan's lacrosse talents caught the eyes of Bill Belichick and the Patriots - Duration: 4:04.
It's so Patriots, isn't it?
That they are going to another Super Bowl because of another diamond in the rough, another unheralded player who emerged as a threat under Bill Belichick, a player who had more yards receiving Sunday than he amassed his entire college career is just so awfully Patriots.
The Pats found Tom Brady in the sixth round of the draft and now he's Super Bowl-bound, thanks to the heroics of another player who came out of nowhere.
Actually, Chris Hogan's road to the biggest stage in sports was paved straight out of a lacrosse field.
Hogan, a former Penn State lax standout, had nine catches and two TDs in the AFC Championship Game against Pittsburgh. His 180 yards receiving are a franchise playoff record and dwarf the 147 yards he posted at Monmouth University in his brief time on the football team, proving that despite a long, winding path to the NFL, Hogan, Belichick and the Patriots are a perfect match.
"It has been a long journey, but I've worked really hard to get to this point, and I just couldn't be happier that I get to be a part of this team, this whole thing," Hogan said Sunday.
New England is a franchise built on versatile character players and a religious dedication to the Patriot Way. Say what you want about the Pats, their QB and the guy in the hoodie, but this is an all-time team that's raised the bar for dominance in pro sports and that always seems to find a guy the rest of the NFL either gives up on or never heard about.
Bill Belichick.

Hogan was not a big-time college recruit as a football player at Ramapo High School in New Jersey, but he could have gone anywhere he wanted on a lacrosse scholarship. He picked Penn State because it was an emerging program on the national stage.
The 6-3, 200-pound Hogan was a physically imposing, hard-working lacrosse player for the Nittany Lions from 2007-2010. As a junior, he scored 29 goals, pretty good for a midfielder, and was voted a team captain his senior year.
"He certainly played lacrosse like a football player,'' former Penn State coach Glenn Thiel told the Boston Globe last year. "He was very physical and he was such an athlete. Physically, he could just overwhelm lacrosse players.''
While playing lacrosse kept him off the football field for four years, it may have been the most attractive quality he brought to the Pats last summer as a free agent.
Bill Belichick has always been a big lacrosse fan since playing as a kid growing up in Annapolis at at Wesleyan University. His daughter Amanda played at Wesleyan and is coaching at Holy Cross. His sons Stephen and Brian also played the game in college before they became assistants with the Patriots.
New England could field quite a team: former Johns Hopkins lacrosse standout Mike Pellegrino is also on the staff.

Belichick is close with Hopkins lacrosse coach Dave Pietramala, regularly attends NCAA games (the Final Four is being held this year in Foxborough) and does tons of charity work in the lacrosse community. The Bill Belichick Foundation built a lacrosse field (Belichick Field) in Uganda.
"It's a great sport," Belichick said during the season prior to a game against Baltimore, one of the nation's traditional lacrosse hotbeds. "I was fortunate enough to grow up in that area and have been able to enjoy so much of lacrosse and all that goes with it. What a great spring sport tradition it is in that area."
When he was a sophomore at Penn State, Hogan suffered an ankle injury that left him with a year of NCAA eligibility after he graduated. With his lacrosse career over, he decided to return home and use that one remaining year to play one more season of football with his old buddies at Monmouth in 2010.
"We thought it was a great opportunity for us," Monmouth coach Kyle Callahan told the Daily News. "It was very obvious, almost immediately, that he was an extremely talented athlete. There wasn't anything he couldn't do."
That included starting at both wide receiver and cornerback, pretty good for a kid Callahan never even saw play lacrosse.
"If you're going to play a high level of lacrosse … you have to have a physical toughness about you," Callahan said. "All I had to do was come out and watch him run around the first day of practice. That's all I needed to see.
He was different and you noticed it right away.
He was very easy to pick out."
It may have been easy for Belichick, too. Not so much for the rest of the NFL.

Woman kicked off of Alaska Airlines flight after insulting Trump supporter next to her - Duration: 2:07.
A woman flying with her husband after his mother died was kicked off of an Alaska Airlines flight for confronting a Donald Trump supporter.
Scott Koteskey said that he was on a flight from Baltimore to Seattle Saturday evening when he was confronted by an unidentified gray-haired woman and told her that he was in the D.C. area to "celebrate democracy" rather than protest.
He posted on Facebook that she said that the Trump supporter disgusted her and threatened to vomit in his lap.
A video of the incident later showed the woman saying "you pretend you have the moral high ground but you put that man's finger on the nuclear button. That man doesn't believe in climate change. Do you believe in gravity?"
A flight attendant came over and told her that she did not have a "right" to have her fellow passenger change seats, followed by another attendant saying that she would have to be taken off the plane.
A Facebook video showed an Alaska Airlines passenger confronting a Trump supporter.
(Scott Koteskey via Facebook)
The woman protested that she was flying with her husband to Seattle because his mother had died and promised to be quiet for the rest of the flight.
"There's no way I'm getting off this plane … My husband lost his mother. Have some respect," she said.
The woman ended up being removed by airport police, with some passengers clapping and beginning to chant "U-S-A."
Kotesky's video of the confrontation and others showing the woman being taken off the plane have since gone viral on social media.
Alaska Airlines kicked off the woman and her husband, traveling because his mother died, and gave them a refund.
(Jeff Chiu/AP)
A Maryland Transportation Authority spokesman Lt. Kevin Ayd told CBS News that neither the woman nor her husband were charged.
An Alaska Airlines representative said that the couple were given a refund instead of being rescheduled to another Alaska Airlines flight.
The airline did not respond to request for further comment.
Kotesky said in his post that a racially diverse crowd on the plane was asking for the woman to be removed and that it was a "great demonstration of AMERICA."

Woody Harrelson admits he was robbed at gunpoint after landing role in 'Cheers' - Duration: 1:28.
It seems life wasn't so cheery for Woody Harrelson just after he landed the role that would propel his career.
Harrelson, 55, visited the Hollywood Reporter's Sundance lounge and spoke about a time he was robbed at gunpoint at the outset of his career.
Now known for his roles in "White Men Can't Jump," "Kingpin," "The Hunger Games," "Zombieland," the upcoming Han Solo anthology film, and others, Harrelson had just landed a role on the smash hit TV show, "Cheers" (he would appear in 200 episodes as Woody Boyd).
He'd purchased himself a Porsche and was returning to it inside a parking garage in the dead of night.
Then, Harrelson said things got ugly.
Woody Harrelson, a cast member in "Wilson," poses at the premiere of the film at the Eccles Theatre during the 2017 Sundance Film Festival on Sunday, Jan. 22, 2017, in Park City, Utah.
(Chris Pizzello/Chris Pizzello/Invision/AP)
"A guy came up and robbed me," he told THR. "Put a gun to my head. That was an uncomfortable night."
The actor said that the thief took his money and demanded the car keys. Harrelson, then 23, could not find his keys quickly enough.
The man offered Harrelson an ultimatum: he'd count to five, and by then, wanted the keys.
"He got to four and I said, 'I'm going to die now,'" Harrelson indicated.
Thankfully, another person came along and scared the thief off.
