TV Review: Unsolved Mysteries★★★★☆
by Morven Mackay
Netflix's latest reboot is a gripping docuseries that explores strange cases from around the world that haven't been solved yet. With UFO sightings and murderers on the run for eight years, they have picked a range of cases that will baffle you.
Unsolved Mysteries was a popular show in America that told of missing people, alien encounters, treasure hunts, bank robberies – if it was mysterious, it was on the show. They used hyper dramatized re-enactments of events to explain what happened and actors like Matthew McConaughey and Daniel Dae Kim got their start on the show.
When remaking a well-loved show, it can be hard to find the balance of keeping it true to itself while making it watchable for new generations, Unsolved Mysteries strikes that balance well.
With original creators John Cosgrove and Terry Dunn Meurer behind it, the new show keeps elements of the theme but moves to an established documentary format that we see in the likes of Making a Murderer and Tiger King.
This move to focus on the people surrounding the case creates a significantly more compelling show. Hearing these heart-breaking and life-changing events straight from those it affected most is so valuable, we aren't detached from them through actors and scripts.
The stories are told chronologically, painting the picture of what happened with absolute clarity and skill. As expected, some episodes are more mysterious than others, but they all tell of intriguing and mind-blowing situations. Well, all except the UFO one, which is more fun than it is intense (like seriously, those people don't seem okay).
What they did keep of the original is an updated version of the theme song. What was once very synth-heavy is now an equally eerie but paired back version. They even give a nod to original host Robert Stack featuring his silhouette in the title sequence.
They also continue to put tip lines and links for anyone that may know something at the end of each episode. There was an effort to focus on solvable cases (although it seems unlikely that the mystery of aliens will be solved) and most of the ones out now have obvious suspects or gaps in timelines that they have no definitive enough leads on.
Netflix has a knack for knowing what kind of content their viewers want and this is no exception. Unsolved Mysteries has joined a long line of the streaming services true-crime content and within a day the show had become number one on the Top 10 list that features on the front page.
Right now, there are six episodes available to watch with another six set to be released at a later date. With the global reach of Netflix, the creators have made an effort to feature cases from around the world. Episode three features a French family's story and they are currently chasing a case in South America.
Unsolved Mysteries isn't the most original but will most definitely satisfy any true crime craving you might have.
For some, the topics discussed might be hard to digest and possibly be triggering.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit - 955 F.2d 1251 (9th Cir. 1992)
Submitted Sept. 12, 1991. *Decided Feb. 3, 1992
Francisco J. Barba, San Francisco, Cal., for petitioner.
Donald A. Couvillon, Office of Immigration Litigation, Dept. of Justice, Washington, D.C., for respondent.
Appeal from the Bureau of Immigration Appeals.
Before CANBY and KOZINSKI, Circuit Judges, and CARROLL** , District Judge.
CARROLL, District Judge:
Julio Cesar Berroteran-Melendez, his wife Ruth, and their two children (collectively "petitioners") petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") order affirming the Immigration Judge's ("IJ") decision denying their request for asylum and withholding of deportation.1
FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
Julio Cesar Berroteran-Melendez, his wife, and their two minor children are citizens of Nicaragua. On January 3, 1988, the Immigration and Naturalization Service ("INS") issued each of them an order to show cause ("OSC") why they should not be deported for entering the United States without inspection.
At a joint deportation hearing, the petitioners, represented by counsel, admitted the allegations in the OSC, conceded deportability, and requested political asylum. The IJ continued the hearing in order to allow the petitioners an opportunity to file their applications for political asylum pursuant to Section 208(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act ("INA"), 8 U.S.C. § 1158(a), and for withholding of deportation pursuant to Section 243(h) of the INA, 8 U.S.C. § 1253(h).
The petitioners appeared with counsel at the October 7, 1988 continuation of the hearing. The IJ rendered an oral decision denying the petitioners' request for asylum and withholding of deportation, but granting their request for voluntary departure. On October 12, 1988, the petitioners filed a timely notice of appeal to the BIA. On June 8, 1990, the BIA affirmed the IJ's decision and dismissed the appeal.
On July 2, 1990, the petitioners filed a timely petition for review with this court. Subsequently, on September 4, 1990, the petitioners filed a motion to reopen deportation proceedings with the BIA and a motion with this court to suspend judicial proceedings pending the BIA's ruling on the motion to reopen. On September 7, 1990, a deputy clerk issued an order denying the petitioners' motion to suspend proceedings. On September 18, 1990, the petitioners filed a motion for reconsideration of the order denying the motion to suspend proceedings, which was denied without prejudice to a renewed motion at the completion of briefing.
On December 21, 1990, a deputy clerk issued an order to the petitioners to voluntarily dismiss their appeal for lack of jurisdiction, or alternatively to show cause why their appeal should not be dismissed. The OSC was referred to this panel.
The petitioners contend that this Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal as the BIA has not yet ruled on the pending motion to reopen. The BIA, however, contends that this Court has jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1105a(a) because the BIA's order of dismissal was a final order of deportation over which this Court has jurisdiction.
If a petitioner files a motion to reopen before seeking judicial review with this Court an "otherwise appealable final order becomes no longer appealable ... until the motion is denied or the proceedings have been effectively terminated." Fayazi-Azad v. INS, 792 F.2d 873, 874 (9th Cir. 1986). See Chu v. INS, 875 F.2d 777, 779-81 (9th Cir. 1989). If the motion to reopen is subsequently denied by the BIA, both the denial of the motion to reopen and the original deportation order are reviewable by this Court upon timely petition. See Hyun Joon Chung v. INS, 720 F.2d 1471, 1474 (9th Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 467 U.S. 1216, 104 S. Ct. 2659, 81 L. Ed. 2d 366 (1984).
In Chu, this Court based its holding that it was without jurisdiction on the rationale that it was Congress' intent to avoid piecemeal litigation by having a single judicial review of all questions relating to an alien's deportation. See Chu, 875 F.2d at 779, citing Chung, 720 F.2d at 1474. Such a policy avoids duplication and waste of judicial and agency resources, and promotes the judicial policy of allowing administrative agencies the opportunity to correct their own mistakes. See generally, Chung, 720 F.2d at 1474.
However, the petitioners here filed their motion to reopen after they filed their petition for review. While this Court has never specifically considered whether we have jurisdiction when a motion to reopen is filed after a petition for review is filed, this Court, without explanation, has exercised jurisdiction in such circumstances. Wall v. INS, 722 F.2d 1442, 1443 (9th Cir. 1984).2
Other circuits have similarly exercised jurisdiction despite a pending motion to reopen. We agree and thus hold that we have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1105. We turn now to the question whether a suspension of appellate proceedings is appropriate pending the BIA's decision.
In Lozada v. INS, 857 F.2d 10, 12 (1st Cir. 1988), the First Circuit held the case in abeyance pending the BIA's ruling on the motion to reopen, and decided the case on the merits when the BIA denied the motion. In Wall, 722 F.2d at 1443, this Court suspended appellate proceedings pending the BIA's disposition of the motion to reopen. The decision to stay was an exercise of judicial discretion; we neither stated nor implied that the court was required to suspend proceedings pending resolution of the motion to reopen.
In Figeroa v. INS, 886 F.2d 76, 77 n. 1 (4th Cir. 1989), on the other hand, the Fourth Circuit decided the merits of an alien's ineffective assistance of counsel claim despite a pending motion to reopen filed after his petition for judicial review. The Court did not discuss its exercise of jurisdiction.
In Alleyne v. INS, 879 F.2d 1177, 1181-82 n. 7 & 8 (3rd Cir. 1989), the Third Circuit exercised jurisdiction but explicitly refused to hold the case in abeyance. The holding depended in large part on the previous Third Circuit decision in Nocon v. INS, 789 F.2d 1028 (3rd Cir. 1986), in which the Court had held, relying on the expressed Congressional policy of preventing delay once immigration status has been determined, that the filing of a motion to reconsider did not toll the limitations period for filing a petition for review in the Court of Appeals. On the tolling issue, Ninth Circuit authority is to the contrary, and holds that the filing of a motion to reopen or reconsider tolls the limitations period for filing a petition for review. Chung, 720 F.2d at 1473; Fayazi, 792 F.2d at 874. Arguably, under Ninth Circuit law, there is no substantive difference between the filing of a motion to reopen before the petition for review, in which case the time for filing the petition runs from the date of the decision on the motion to reopen, and where a motion to reopen is filed after the petition for review and the appellate proceedings are suspended. The appellate process would not be further delayed.
However, the Alleyne Court also noted that the practice of suspending appellate proceedings would effectively create an automatic stay of deportation pending the outcome of a motion to reopen. This result would be contrary to administrative regulations that " [t]he filing of a motion to reopen or a motion to reconsider shall not serve to stay the execution of any decision made in the case." Alleyne, 879 F.2d at 1181-82 n. 7., citing, 8 C.F.R. § 3.8(a) (1988).
While suspending proceedings would promote judicial efficiency, see Chu, 875 F.2d at 779, the potential for abuse of the process to circumvent the BIA's discretionary power to grant or deny a stay of deportation pending a motion to reopen outweighs concerns with efficiency. After balancing these concerns in the factual context of this case, we elect not to stay judicial proceedings.
Relief pursuant to Section 208(a) of the INA is within the discretion of the Attorney General, INS v. Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. 421, 423, 107 S. Ct. 1207, 1208-09, 94 L. Ed. 2d 434 (1987), and we review the BIA's decision not to grant relief under an abuse of discretion standard. Bolanos-Hernandez v. INS, 767 F.2d 1277, 1282 n. 9 (9th Cir. 1984). We review the BIA's factual determination that an alien has failed to prove a well-founded fear of persecution for substantial evidence. Sanchez-Trujillo v. INS, 801 F.2d 1571, 1578 (9th Cir. 1986). We also review the BIA's decision to grant or deny the withholding of deportation for substantial evidence. Echeverria-Hernandez v. INS, 923 F.2d 688, 690 (9th Cir. 1991).
The substantial evidence standard does not permit the Court to reverse the BIA solely because the Court disagrees with the BIA's evaluation of the facts, but requires that "the BIA's conclusion, based on the evidence presented, be substantially reasonable." Del Valle v. INS, 901 F.2d 787, 790 (9th Cir. 1990), citing, Diaz-Escobar v. INS, 782 F.2d 1488, 1493 (9th Cir. 1986).
To be eligible for asylum, applicants must establish that they are refugees based on either past persecution3 or a "well-founded fear of [future] persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion."4 Section 101(a) (42) of the INA; 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a) (42); See also, Desir v. Ilchert, 840 F.2d 723, 726 (9th Cir. 1988). The burden is on the alien to establish eligibility for asylum. EstradaPosadas v. INS, 924 F.2d 916, 918 (9th Cir. 1991).
Berroteran-Melendez's application is largely based on his work with his uncle, Leonidas Guadamuz, who was Chief of the Driver's License Section in the Traffic Police in Managua, Nicaragua until his retirement in 1977. Berroteran-Melendez claimed that Guadamuz had been granted asylum in the United States.
Berroteran-Melendez asserts that he was arrested at the house of his uncle (who was then in the United States) by the Sandinistas in 1979 during their occupation of Managua, and was incarcerated and interrogated for 15 days. Petitioner maintains that throughout the early 1980's, the threats, beatings, and interrogations against him intensified: he was arrested six or seven times and was detained three times. In 1982, he was held for twenty-five days, and in 1986, he was detained for two days. During one of these periods of incarceration his jaw was broken.5 He also claimed that he could not obtain ration cards due to his connection with the Somoza government and had to buy food on the black market. He decided to leave Nicaragua in 1986.
To establish eligibility for asylum based on a well-founded fear of future persecution, applicants must demonstrate both an objective and subjective fear of persecution. Estrada-Posadas, 924 F.2d at 918. Thus, applicants must show both a "genuine" subjective fear and a "reasonable possibility" of persecution. Desir, 840 F.2d at 726. An asylum applicant's "candid, credible, and sincere testimony" demonstrating a genuine fear of persecution satisfies the subjective component of the well-founded fear standard. See Blanco-Comarribas v. INS, 830 F.2d 1039, 1042 (9th Cir. 1987). The objective component requires "credible, direct and specific evidence in the record, of facts that would support a reasonable fear that the petitioner faces persecution." Rodriguez-Rivera v. INS, 848 F.2d 998, 1002 (9th Cir. 1988) (emphasis in original). See also, Zacarias v. INS, 921 F.2d 844, 849 (9th Cir. 1990).
The BIA adopted the IJ's findings that Berroteran-Melendez's testimony was not credible. This Court reviews the credibility findings of the BIA and the IJ for substantial evidence. See Turcios v. INS, 821 F.2d 1396, 1399 (9th Cir. 1987). Substantial evidence is such evidence as a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion. Id. at 1398. An IJ's credibility findings are given substantial deference by the reviewing court, but must be supported by a "specific, cogent reason" for the disbelief. Id. at 1399.
In finding Berroteran-Melendez's testimony incredible, the IJ stated: "The case does not hang together. His testimony does not have a ring of truth to it. It does not seem logical or consistent; it is lacking in detail. When we deal with the more important parts, he is not a credible witness and I cannot give him asylum on this record".
First, the IJ found that there were discrepancies between Berroteran-Melendez's application for asylum and his testimony. In his application for asylum, Berroteran-Melendez states that he had been incarcerated only once by the Sandinistas. At the hearing, however, he testified he had been taken to jail on three other occasions, and that on one of these occasions his jaw was broken. His application does not mention that the Sandinistas broke his jaw. Next, while he testified that his "last" incarceration was in 1986, his application states that he was arrested on several occasions, but does not indicate that these arrests resulted in other incarcerations. These discrepancies are not minor, and Berroteran-Melendez offered no reasons for the discrepancies below and offers none on appeal.
Additionally, the IJ did not believe Berroteran-Melendez's testimony that Guadamuz was a captain in the National Guard, and the BIA adopted this finding in its decision. In fact, the identification badges submitted into evidence by Guadamuz identified him as a captain of the Managua Police Department, not the National Guard. Moreover, on appeal the petitioners abandon their argument that Guadamuz was a National Guardsman, and indicate that he was a policeman.
The record also supports the IJ's findings that Berroteran-Melendez's testimony was lacking in detail. For instance, although Berroteran-Melendez testified that the Sandinistas tortured him on different occasions, his testimony contained no dates or descriptions of these incidents, except for his testimony that the Sandinistas had broken his jaw in 1979. Petitioners' brief on appeal states that this incident occurred in 1986.
The IJ and the BIA also found it difficult to believe that Berroteran-Melendez would be continually harassed through 1986 as a result of his relationship with Guadamuz, when Guadamuz had been in the United States since 1978.
Berroteran-Melendez contends that the adverse credibility findings of the IJ and the BIA were based on factual error because neither the IJ nor the BIA believed that Guadamuz had been granted asylum in the United States. Although the petitioners have submitted a letter from the District Director of the INS confirming Guadamuz's grant of asylum on appeal, this evidence was not presented below. Even if this evidence had been presented below, petitioner's argument would fail. The BIA did not conclude that Guadamuz had been denied asylum, but merely concluded that there was insufficient evidence to find that he had been granted asylum. Moreover, there was otherwise substantial support for the BIA's finding that Berroteran-Melendez lacked credibility.
Berroteran-Melendez also contends that the BIA erred in determining that the newly elected government of Violeta Chamorro in Nicaragua diminished his claim of a well-founded fear of persecution.
While this Court has not previously considered whether the BIA may take administrative notice of the change in government in Nicaragua, the Seventh Circuit has considered this issue with respect to Poland. In Kaczmarczyk v. INS, 933 F.2d 588, 593-94 (7th Cir. 1991), the Seventh Circuit held that the BIA had the authority to take official notice not only of the fact that political circumstances had changed in Poland, but that they had changed in such a way as to render the petitioner's fear of future persecution insupportable. See also, Kubon v. INS, 913 F.2d 386, 388 (7th Cir. 1990). The Court cautioned, however, that the BIA should not blindly apply this information to automatically deny every asylum application submitted by a Polish alien, and that administrative notice should not be used as a substitute for an analysis of the facts of each applicant's individual circumstances. Kaczmarczyk, 933 F.2d at 594.
Here, the petitioners argue that under the new Nicaraguan government, the Sandinistas maintain control of the military and the police and the petitioners will not be afforded any greater degree of safety under the new administration.6 Here we need not decide precisely what effect may be given to the change of government, however, because Berroteran-Melendez offers no credible support for his assertion that he is likely to be persecuted in Nicaragua under either the old or the new government.
Given the inconsistencies and the lack of detail of the petitioner's application for asylum, substantial evidence supports the IJ's and BIA's finding. See Turcios, 821 F.2d at 1399. Because Berroteran-Melendez's failed to present "candid, credible and sincere testimony" demonstrating a genuine fear of persecution, he failed to satisfy the subjective component of the well-founded fear standard. See Blanco-Comarribas, 830 F.2d at 1042. Therefore, he failed to establish eligibility for asylum. See Estrada-Posadas, 924 F.2d at 918. Accordingly, the BIA did not err in upholding the IJ's denial of the petitioners' request for asylum on this ground.
Because the petitioners failed to demonstrate a well-founded fear of persecution required for asylum, this Court does not need to address whether the petitioners would meet the more stringent standard of a clear probability of persecution required for withholding of deportation. See De Valle, 901 F.2d at 790; INS v. Stevic, 467 U.S. 407, 104 S. Ct. 2489, 81 L. Ed. 2d 321 (1984).
Berroteran-Melendez contends that even if he is not eligible for asylum based on a well-founded fear of future persecution, he is eligible for asylum based on past persecution alone. Specifically, he contends that his "experience of being imprisoned, having his property confiscated, being interrogated, beaten and being accused of being a counterrevolutionary" constitutes past persecution on account of actual and imputed political opinion.
Because the BIA expressly adopted the IJ's finding that Berroteran-Melendez's testimony lacked credibility, there is no basis for the claim of past persecution. Accordingly, Berroteran-Melendez's contention that he is eligible for a grant of asylum based on past persecution also lacks merit.
Finally, the petitioner contends that the IJ and the BIA violated his equal protection rights because his claim for asylum is stronger than Guadamuz's, and Guadamuz was granted asylum in the United States. Classifications among aliens are evaluated under the rational basis test. See Paointhara v. INS, 708 F.2d 472, 473 (9th Cir.), modified and reh'g denied, 721 F.2d 651 (9th Cir. 1983). Under the rational basis test, the person alleging the equal protection violation bears the burden of establishing a prima facie case of an uneven application of the law. See generally, McQueary v. Blodgett, 924 F.2d 829, 835 (9th Cir. 1991).
However, petitioner is not contesting a classification based on his status as an alien; he is alleging that he was treated differently than another alien. He does not state on what basis he was treated differently, and the fact that he received a different decision than did another alien does not raise an equal protection issue.
The BIA had substantial evidence to find that Berroteran-Melendez failed to present "candid, credible and sincere testimony" demonstrating a genuine fear of persecution or credible evidence of past persecution. Further, Berroteran-Melendez has not sustained his burden of demonstrating an equal protection violation.
In order to afford the petitioners the opportunity to seek a stay of deportation from the BIA pending resolution of the motion to reopen, we stay our mandate for 30 days. See Bu Roe v. INS, 771 F.2d 1328, 1335 (9th Cir. 1985); Fayazi-Azad, 792 F.2d at 874.
The panel finds this case appropriate for submission without oral argument pursuant to Ninth Circuit Rule 34-4(a) and Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)
The Honorable Earl H. Carroll, United States District Judge for the District of Arizona, sitting by designation
Both adult petitioners, Julio and Ruth Berroteran-Melendez, filed applications for asylum. The petitioners' claim of persecution, however, is based solely on Julio Berroteran-Melendez's (hereinafter, "Berroteran-Melendez") testimony. Julio's spouse Ruth, and their two children are by regulation included within Julio's application. See 8 CFR § 208.2 (1990)
Unlike a petition for review, which automatically stays the order of deportation, an administrative motion to reopen filed with the BIA does not provide an automatic stay of deportation. Compare 8 U.S.C. § 1105a(a) (3), and 8 C.F.R. §§ 3.8(a), 103.5 and 242.22
Past persecution alone, independent of establishing a well-founded fear of future persecution, can suffice to establish an asylum claim. Desir v. Ilchert, 840 F.2d 723, 729 (9th Cir. 1988)
Persecution involves "the infliction of suffering or harm upon those who differ (in race, religion or political opinion) in a way regarded as offensive." Desir, 840 F.2d at 727
There is some discrepancy regarding when Berroteran-Melendez's jaw was broken: the BIA decision reflects that he testified his jaw was broken during his initial arrest in 1979, although his brief on appeal states that this occurred in 1986
The petitioners made the same argument in Kaczmarczyk. There the petitioners argued that under the new coalition government in Poland, the communists still maintained control of the military and the police. The Court declined to give much weight to their argument that they were likely to be persecuted under the new government because it lacked support in the record. Kaczmarczyk, 933 F.2d at 594

Campbell Live viewers raise $127,000 for UNICEF Gaza Appeal
Campbell Live
Campbell Live viewers, in conjunction with UNICEF, have raised more than $127,000 to assist children affected by the conflict in Gaza. The total was announced tonight on the show with a message of thanks to New Zealanders from UNICEF for their support.
UNICEF has confirmed the funds will be used for medical assistance, vaccinations and emergency food supplies for the children in Gaza.
The overwhelming response follows a campaign that began last Friday, with Kiwis texting and donating online. Over the past four days, more than 33,000 individual donations have been received from all around New Zealand.
"We're continually amazed by the generosity and kindness of our audience," says host John Campbell.
"From Lunchbox Day and the fight against child poverty, to the Philippines typhoon relief, and most recently UNICEF's critical work in Gaza, and closer to home helping the Lawton family into their new house.
"There's no great fanfare, just our stories and our viewers responding to them. In April, the Fundraising Institute of New Zealand gave us their 2014 Award for Philanthropy. But it wasn't just for us, it was for our viewers."
On Monday night, Campbell Live unveiled Te Aroha couple Tobi Lawton and Sarah Lee's new home. The first-home buyers and parents of three young children faced bankruptcy when their property was deemed uninhabitable due to one of the worst termite infestations seen in New Zealand.
After their story was told on Campbell Live, $201,000 was donated by the public. Thanks to those donations and GJ Gardner Homes, the couple received the keys to their brand new home live on-air last night.
To make an automatic $3 donation to the UNICEF Gaza Appeal text HELP to 2923.
… Not to mention all the money they raised for that couple whose house was termite-infested. Good stuff!!! 🙂
Remember when Seven Sharp lost 40% of their viewers? Now it's Campbell Live's turn

Rocket Girls, a girl group that debuted from the Chinese version of Produce 101, is under fire for their latest teasers and music videos being similar to f(x) and Red Velvet.
Rocket Girls' latest teaser featured a purple background with orange tints and graphics that were much too similar to f(x)'s teaser image for "4 Walls". Multiple aspects of their new release were deemed too familiar.
Not only were their teasers similar to an SM girl group. Netizens pointed out similar scenes from their latest music video that paralleled with scenes from various Red Velvet's music videos.
A scene from Red Velvet's music video for 'One Of These Nights' featured a backdrop of the sea as Seulgi walked out through a door that floated mid-air among the sea. The same visual theme was featured in Rocket Girls' 'Born To Win' music video (as seen above).
Netizens also pointed out how the stoic faces of the Rocket Girls' members as they sat in the middle of a tennis court closely resembled Red Velvet's 'Russian Roulette'.

f(x)'s Amber opened up about her past relationships, and talked about how she "sucks at them"
She spoke about the songs in her mixtape, "Rogue Rouge" and how they reflect her experiences with love and the entertainment industry.
Amber's latest song, "Right Now", featuring Gen Neo, took a long time to write for the both of them. Amber revealed it was because they both find relationships difficult, and putting their feelings into a song was difficult.
"I'll say, I'm picky. I'm a very all-in personality, and that's the reason I am picky because if I date you that means I want to marry you, I want to spend my life with you. I remember it took me five years to get over one of my exes. It's not something we talk about a lot in the industry and it's not something people see, but I've been an emotional wreck. I'm a softie. But when I get broken up with, I learn a lot about myself." — Amber

On December 18th, f(x)'s Krystal and EXO's Lay made a couple appearance in Beijing at the press conference for their upcoming Chinese movie, Kite Flying.
The two labelmates of SM Entertainment will be the main lead for the Chinese movie, which is scheduled to start filming around January or February next year and slated to be screened in cinemas in the later half of 2016.
At the press conference, Lay, three years older than Krystal, placed his arms cooly over her shoulders and the two also hooked arms. Fans are already excited about the chemistry between the two. The duo also attended the Lily Award Ceremony in Beijing on the same day.
Lay was, hence, unfortunately not able to perform on stage with his fellow EXO members for the comeback stage on Music Bank. Last week, EXO-Ls were also furious because KBS did not publish Lay's profile in the comeback preview.
In related news, former SM artists Jessica and Kris Wu Yi Fan shared the same stage at the recording of a Chinese show, Tian Tian Xiang Shang.

f(x)'s Sulli caught the attention of the netizens today as she attends an event with bruises evident on her legs.
On January 22nd, Sulli graced the opening ceremony of international brandFURLA's flagship store as they present their 2015 Spring/Summer collection held at LotteCOEX in Samsungdong, Gangnam. However, as photos from the photo wall were published, netizens cannot help but spot the bruises all over her bony prominences, specifically her legs. Since then, netizens have been speculating over Sulli's alleged carboxy shot bruises, while some argued that it looks more of acupuncture rather than shots.
Carboxy Shots, otherwise known as carboxytherapy, is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that injects carbon dioxide into the skin as it aims to kill fat cells, stimulating blood flow, thus improving the skin's elasticity. It is popularly used for treating dark under eye circles, stretch marks, cellulites and non-surgical fat removal.
Meanwhile, since taking a break from f(x)'s activities and wrapping up promotions for Fashion King, Sulli was last spotted attending the opening ceremony of SMTOWN COEX Artium last January 13th.

f(x) have finally made their long-awaited comeback! After numerous teasers and concept photos, f(x) released their music video for "Red Light" on July 3rd.
Throughout the course of the week, SM Entertainment unveiled countless photos of each member (Krystal, Victoria, Luna, Sulli and Amber) followed by a highlight melody and a group picture.
Seen from the photos and the music video, f(x) has taken on the military concept that's shown through their dance and clothing choices. They have returned with a more chic and strong image which is fairly different from their last album, "Pink Tape."
In the music video, the members showcase the choreography of the song as well as their new images. In particular, Amber's bright red hair stands out. Musically, the track is reminiscent of f(x)'s previous releases, but with a more serious feel.
f(x) is scheduled to have their first stage on M! Countdown later today. They will then follow with Music Bank on the 4th, "Show! Champion" on the 5th, and Inkigayo on the 6th of July.

Jessica from Girls' Generation and Krystal from f(x) reveal their thoughts about their bad temper image.
On the pilot episode of Onstyle's "Jessica & Krystal" that aired on June 3rd, the sisters mentioned that they "have a complex when people say they look like they have a bad temper".
Jessica continued by saying, "Many people think idols always seem to be happy but my sister and I have trouble showing our emotions. If you aren't so lively people can misunderstand that you aren't in a good mood. Please don't think we have a bad temper. It's a complex for us."
Krystal added "I don't want to explain. This is who we are and what can we do about it?"
On another note, Jessica confessed that the reason she came on this show was to "become a friend and older sister (to Krystal) and also grow closer". Check out the Jung sisters and their journey on future episodes!

SM Entertainment and Amoeba Culture has denied speculations regarding f(x)'s Sulli and Dynamic Duo's Choiza's relationship.
On September 26th, SM Entertainment sent out an official statement regarding the issue, after photos of Sulli and Choiza's alleged date circulated online. The agency explained that Choiza is like an older brother whom she meets with often, but are not dating.
Amoeba Culture, on the other hand, clarified that it has been two months since Choiza broke up with his girlfriend of six year. The agency released no other comments about the photos.
Earlier today, Sulli and Choiza were in a middle of a scandal after photos of their alleged date circulated online. The first photo, which was taken by a fan, featured the two going out and drinking beer. However, a journalist's account taken the day after, revealed the two holding hands.
What do you think of the photos? Are you satisfied with the agencies' statements?

Adverts on Georgia's public broadcaster set to go ahead despite backlash
By OC Media
(RFE/RL)
A controversial law to allow advertising to be aired on the Georgian Public Broadcaster (GPB) has passed its second hearing in Parliament. The draft has faced opposition from other broadcasters and civil society as well as a parliamentary committee.
Despite a parliamentary committee objected a controversial draft law which would allow the Georgian Public Broadcaster (GPB) to air advertisements, the Parliament passed it in its second hearing.
Eighty-five MPs voted in favour with only six opposed in the 14 December vote, despite the Parliamentary Committee of Sectoral Economy and Economic Policy objecting to the draft.
Parliament will now vote on the law in its third and final hearing.
Nino Jangirashvili, Director of broadcaster Kavkasia, said a number of broadcasters and civil society groups are urging the President to veto the bill.
[Read on OC Media: Private TV stations denounce planned changes in Georgia's broadcasting law]
However, the ruling Georgian Dream party has enjoyed a constitutional majority in parliament since 2016 parliamentary elections, and can override a presidential veto.
Head of Parliament's Judiciary Committee, Eka Beselia, said on 19 December she was 'honestly amazed' by the criticism, as 'parliament has not worked so long on any other project'. 'Claims the project is[…] unprepared are not serious', she added.
Tinatin Berdzenishvili, the Director of Media and Communications at GPB, who has lobbied for the bill, said on 18 December during a meeting with the President that commercial broadcasters are free of the obligations that GPB has. According to her, the amendments to the law aim to increase their ratings and help them 'become one of the strongest players on the market'.
The amendments to the Law on Broadcasting to remove restrictions on advertising were initiated by the GPB themselves. The broadcaster claims this will contribute to their development and allow them to better compete with commercial broadcasters.
If the changes are adopted, the GPB would still face restrictions, with advertisements limited to three minutes an hour and restricted entirely at prime times, on weekends, and on public holidays.
[Read on OC Media: Bill could allow advertising on Georgian Public Broadcaster]
The draft would also allow the broadcaster to avoid the Procurement Law while licensing and commissioning films and TV programmes. The law mandates that public bodies hold tenders for any goods or services they purchase. Opponents of the law claim this would decrease transparency at the broadcaster.
Vasil Maghlaperidze, General Director of the GPB, defended the changes, claiming opponents of the bill have been mislead. He said the aim was to streamline how the GPB purchases TV shows, saying the broadcaster should not 'purchase a movie or a TV programme the same way we purchase cement or an air conditioner'.

Q: Kubernetes whitelist-source-range blocks instead of whitelist IP Running Kubernetes on GKE
Installed Nginx controller with latest stable release by using helm.
Everythings works well, except adding the whitelist-source-range annotation results in that I'm completely locked out from my service.
Ingress config
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: staging-ingress
  namespace: staging
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
    ingress.kubernetes.io/whitelist-source-range: "x.x.x.x, y.y.y.y"
spec:
  rules:
    - host: staging.com
      http:
        paths:
        - path: /
          backend:
            serviceName:staging-service
            servicePort: 80

I connected to the controller pod and checked the nginx config and found this:
# Deny for staging.com/
geo $the_real_ip $deny_5b3266e9d666401cb7ac676a73d8d5ae {
    default 1;

    x.x.x.x 0;
    y.y.y.y 0;
}

It looks like he is locking me out instead of whitelist this IP's. But it also locking out all other addresses... I get 403 by going from staging.com host.

A: Your nginx controller service has to be set as externalTrafficPolicy: Local. That means that the actual client IP will be used instead of cluster's internal IP.
You need to get the real service name from kubectl get svc command. The service is something like:
NAME                                          TYPE           CLUSTER-IP     EXTERNAL-IP    PORT(S)                      AGE
nobby-leopard-nginx-ingress-controller        LoadBalancer   10.0.139.37    40.83.166.29   80:31223/TCP,443:30766/TCP   2d

nobby-leopard-nginx-ingress-controller is the service name you want to use.
To finish this, run
kubectl patch svc nobby-leopardnginx-ingress-controller -p '{"spec":{"externalTrafficPolicy":"Local"}}'
When you setting up a new nginx controller, you can use the command below:
helm install stable/nginx-ingress \
  --namespace kube-system \
  --set controller.service.externalTrafficPolicy=Local`

to have a nginx ingress controller accept whitelist after installing.

A: Yes. However, I figured out by myself. Your service has to be enabled externalTrafficPolicy: Local. That means that the actual client IP should be used instead of the internal cluster IP.
To accomplish this run
kubectl patch svc nginx-ingress-controller -p '{"spec":{"externalTrafficPolicy":"Local"}}'

Women and the Reformation gathers historical materials and personal accounts to provide a comprehensive and accessible look at the status and contributions of women as leaders in the 16th century Protestant world.
* Explores the new and expanded role as core participants in Christian life that women experienced during the Reformation.
* Examines diverse individual stories from women of the times, ranging from biographical sketches of the ex-nun Katharina von Bora Luther and Queen Jeanne d'Albret, to the prophetess Ursula Jost and the learned Olimpia Fulvia Morata.
* Brings together social history and theology to provide a groundbreaking volume on the theological effects that these women had on Christian life and spirituality.
A Swiss court has slapped a wealthy speeder with a chalet-sized fine — a full $290,000. Judges at the cantonal court in St. Gallen, in eastern Switzerland, based the record-breaking fine on the speeder's estimated wealth of over $20 million. A statement on the court's Web site says the driver — a repeat offender — drove up to 35 miles an hour (57 kilometers an hour) faster than the 50-mile-an-hour (80-kilometer-an-hour) limit.
The offender has not been identified, though his conscience should be seared, since sin remains sin regardless of the resources of the sinner.
'He Himself then marked out the wood (of the cross), to undo the damage of the wood (of the tree in Paradise)'.
Zwingli saw the Cross as the antidote to the Tree. It is, if you grant it, a profound observation.
Follow along with Princeton Seminary as they offer daily readings in Calvin's magnum opus at a site titled Ad Fontes. For those non-latinists among you, that's 'to the sources'.
Readings began on January 1. So there's still time for you to catch up.
What were the apostles to do then? Was it necessary for them either to pretend not to see for a time, or to abandon and renounce completely the gospel which they saw was the seed of so many quarrels, the cause of so many dangers, an occasion for so many scandals? But in the midst of such afflictions they remembered that Christ is a stone of offense and of scandal, set for the fall and raising up of a number and for a stumbling block which they will oppose (Isa. 8[14-15]; Rom. 9[32-33]; Lk. 2; 1 Pet. 2). Armed with this confidence, they pressed on courageously and passed through all the dangers of tumults and scandals. We have reason to be consoled with the same thought since St. Paul testified that it will always be the case with the gospel that "it will be the fragrance of death for death to those who are perishing, and the fragrance of life for life to those who are being saved" (2 Cor. 2[15-16]). – John Calvin, in his preface to the 1535 Institutes.
In this corner of cyberspace you'll find my thoughts on modern culture, theology, and church history (with a load of Zwingli and Calvin mixed in).
I hope you find it both entertaining and informative.
Tyndale have sent along this volume for review. So thanks to them.
In sum- it will appeal to conservatives. I'm not sure it will appeal to anyone else. Here's why.
First, while it is nicely arranged and organized, the print is rather small- so older folks and vision impaired folks will have a hard time using it.
Second, while it has a good range of expert exegetes (who provide the extensive notes filling the volume); as happens whenever there's such a collaboration, some of the work is better than other. For instance, Hugh G.M. Williamson and his co-workers' observations on Ezra/Nehemiah/Esther/Ruth are very well done and exceedingly accurate (as one would expect of Williamson), while Scot McKnight's on Luke are – to be charitable- weak and condescending. See for example at 8:43-44 where McKnight (or one of his cohorts/collaborators) writes `Luke, with his background in medicine…' Of course this is nothing but rank speculation which merely reinforces unsubstantiated legend.
Third, the book introductions are very conservative in nature. Again, taking Luke as an example, we're told `Author: Luke, a doctor who was a traveling companion of the apostle Paul.' This is of course not what the Gospel itself claims- since it, like the others, is intentionally anonymous. Similarly, 2 Thessalonians is attributed to Paul, as are the Pastorals. When it comes to the Song of Solomon the editor responsible for it notes that the author is identified in the first line as Solomon. `When did it happen?' And the editor's answer? `In the 900s BC'. There seems, then, to be no awareness at all of the problems such attribution raises. Indeed, `Isaiah' is `the author' of the book bearing his name, readers are told. These examples could of course be multiplied and each one would show the very conservative bent of the editors.
Fourth, the `Someone You Should Know' sidebars likewise are very conservative in their stance. That notwithstanding, they are, by and large, very well done and quite informative for the general reader.
Fifth, the translation which the version makes use of is the `New Living Translation'. This translation is neither a `formal equivalence' nor a `dynamic equivalence' rendition but instead a `thought-for-thought equivalence'. There are obviously problems with such an approach. The primary being, of course, that such a translation often violates the principle of distance that must guide translators. The Bible wasn't written in English. When readers forget that, they tend to disregard all the cultural baggage that comes with an ancient text. Translations should, to some extent, keep readers at arms length if only to remind them that they are in fact translations and nothing more. Reall access to the thought world of the author can only come with familiarity with the language in which that author wrote.
Sixth, and finally, though I have reservations about the version (spelled out above) all in all I think it will serve its audience, and its purpose, quite nicely. Conservative minded Christians will enjoy it, and learn from it.

L'Open Researcher and Contributor ID (acronimo: ORCID) è un identificativo alfanumerico non-proprietario per l'identificazione univoca degli scienziati e di altri autori della letteratura scientifica. Risponde al problema di distinguere i contributi dei diversi autori nel caso di omonimi, di cognomi che mutano (ad esempio in seguito ad un matrimonio), di abbreviazioni diverse per il prenome o di traslitterazioni da sistemi di scrittura diversi. Esso fornisce un identificativo stabile per le persone in analogia al ruolo svolto dai digital object identifier (DOI) per i contenuti. ORCID ha lanciato il proprio servizio il 16 ottobre del 2012, emettendo i primi identificativi utente.

Storia
ORCID è nato come "Open Researcher Contributor Identification Initiative".

Il registro ora è gestito da un'organizzazione nonprofit indipendente, denominata ORCID, Inc., fondata nell'agosto 2010.
ORCID è utilizzabile liberamente e interoperabile con altri sistemi di identificatori persistenti. ORCID ha lanciato il proprio registro e iniziato a emettere identificatori il 16 ottobre 2012. Formalmente, gli ORCID ID vanno specificati come URI, per esempio l'ORCID per Giovanni Solimine è http://orcid.org/0000-0002-7532-0899, anche se alcuni editori utilizzano la forma abbreviata, come "ORCID: 0000-0002-7532-0899".

ORCID è parte dell'International Standard Name Identifier (ISNI), sotto gli auspici dell'International Organization for Standardization (ISO 27729); le due organizzazioni cooperano strettamente. ISNI identificherà unicamente gli autori di contributi a libri, programmi televisivi e giornali, e ha riservato un blocco di identificatori all'uso da parte di ORCID, tra i numeri 0000-0001-5000-0007 e 0000-0003-5000-0001. Tuttavia, è possibile per una medesima persona di avere sia l'ISNI che l'ORCID - cioè, in realtà, due ISNI.

Sia ORCID che ISNI utilizzano indicatori di 16 caratteri, utilizzando i numeri 0–9, separati a gruppi di quattro da un trattino. Il carattere finale potrebbe essere anche la lettera "X" che rappresenta il valore "10" (per esempio, l'ORCID di Andrea Marchitelli, studioso di biblioteconomia, è http://orcid.org/0000-0003-4448-496X), cioè un check digit MOD 11-2 conforme allo standard ISO/IEC 7064:2003.

Esiste anche un identificativo ORCID per una persona fittizia, Josiah Carberry, http://orcid.org/0000-0002-1825-0097, da usare nei test e negli esempi.

Usi
Scopo di ORCID è favorire "la transizione dalla Scienza alla e-Science, laddove le pubblicazioni scientifiche possono essere setacciate per estrarre collegamenti e idee nascosti nel volume sempre crescente della letteratura scientifica. Un altro uso suggerito è quello di fornire ciascun ricercatore di un 'curriculum vitae' digitale, che fornisca un quadro del suo contributo alla scienza che vada molto oltre la semplice lista di pubblicazioni." L'idea è che altre organizzazioni possano usare il database ad accesso aperto di ORCID per costruire sopra i loro servizi.

In un editoriale pubblicato su Nature è stato notato che ORCID, oltre a contrassegnare il contributo che i ricercatori danno agli articoli, "potrebbe anche essere assegnato ai dataset che egli ha contribuito a generare, commenti ai post pubblicati sui blog dei suoi colleghi, bozze di articoli non ancora pubblicati, modifiche alle pagine di Wikipedia e molto altro ancora".

Nell'aprile 2014, ORCID ha annunciato di iniziare a collaborare con Consortia Advancing Standards in Research Administration Information per registrare e riconoscere i contributi di peer review.

Partecipanti e comunità
Nel luglio 2016 ORCID conta 460 organizzazioni partecipanti.. Membri di ORCID sono molti editori, come Elsevier, Springer, Wiley and Nature Publishing Group, enti di ricerca (tra i quali molte università italiane e CNR), società commerciali come Thomson Reuters, società scientifiche ed enti di finanziamento.

Integrazioni
In aggiunta alle organizzazioni partecipanti, altri editori, riviste e servizi hanno incluso ORCID nei loro flussi di lavoro o banche dati. Per esempio, il Journal of Neuroscience, Springer, the Hindawi Publishing Corporation, Europe PubMed Central, Wikipedia e Wikidata.

Alcuni servizi online hanno creato strumenti di importazione di dati verso o importazione da ORCID. Tra questi, Scopus e Figshare. Thomson Reuters ha abilitato lo scambio di dati tra ORCID e il suo sistema ResearcherID system, e viceversa.

Altri strumenti ancora permettono la migrazione di contenuti da altri servizi verso ORCID, per esempio ODIN, per DataCite e Mendeley2ORCID, for Mendeley.

Alcuni dati di ORCID possono essere recuperati anche come RDF.

My family does a lot of traveling together, particularly in cars. There's just something about a road trip--being stuck in tight quarters with the same bunch of humans for days--that's weirdly bonding. Yes, long-distance vacations can be expensive. Yes, my husband, our four kids (ages 13 to 20) and I have spent countless hours snarling at each other while waiting in slow-moving lines to snap selfies in front of national treasures. And yes, we are always glad to get home to reclaim our respective personal spaces.
1. They can navigate public transit in huge metropolises.
This is something many adults in the U.S. don't feel comfortable doing. There's a certain confidence that comes with the ability to traverse a big city when you don't have wheels of your own. And while I'm still using paper maps, young people are adept at using mobile apps to figure out which subway trains or buses to board.
2. It pushes them to be outgoing.
For instance, they see the necessity of talking with strangers. I realize this is exactly the opposite of what parents teach little kids. In reality, though, not getting lost often entails asking a local for help navigating.
3. It strips them of some naiveté.
Again, this isn't something you want to see in a five-year-old, but as older kids prepare to go out into the world it's in their best interest to have some idea what's actually out there. We live in Minnesota where it can be deathly cold and don't see a lot of homeless people on the street. While traveling, my kids have seen plenty of tents, signs and sleeping figures on sidewalks and benches, particularly in warmer climes such as Los Angeles and Las Vegas. They've smelled weed wafting through the air at Venice Beach. They've wrestled with the moral dilemma regarding whether or not to give money to panhandlers in Chicago.
4. It makes them appreciate how blessed they are.
Driving through places where the houses look very different from their own helps them understand that millions (and billions, worldwide) of people live vastly different existences. We live on six acres in the middle of nowhere with a lake in our backyard. Enough said.
We also don't have to deal with traffic where we live. One time, driving to JFK from Philadelphia had us stuck in road construction in Brooklyn and Queens for a seeming eternity with no fuel stations in sight or showing up in our maps app. And half our crew vows never to live in LA after sitting for cumulative hours on roadways there.
5. It helps them to be open minded and try new things.
We have discovered root beer isn't much of a thing on the East Coast. At home, it's their go-to drink when ordering a meal at a restaurant. When elsewhere, they often need to switch it up.
6. They can live for weeks out of a backpack.
This is a valuable life skill. Traveling lightly makes a person agile and better able to change plans on a whim, instead of having to lug along suitcases full of unnecessary crap.
7. It takes them away from their screens.
Most kids have had screens in front of their faces and in their hands for as long as they can remember. Getting out exploring new places is a great alternative to watching TV or playing Xbox at home. And while you probably can't keep them off their phones during a trip, you can mandate device-free hours and banish them during meals.
8. It pushes them to conquer their fears.
Traveling often provides opportunities to do things you can't at home. My older boys tried surfing last month, which was pretty huge considering they are land-lovers who are afraid of fish (and especially sharks). Pushing through the things that make us afraid is always a good thing.
So, are kids more likely to succeed because of being well-traveled? Certainly, if confidence, open-mindedness, appreciation and fearlessness have anything to do with it.

Steve Martin, left, starred in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" with John Candy.
The best of Steve Martin and Martin Short: Separate and together
By Kevin Coffey World-Herald staff writer
Kevin Coffey
Reporter - Entertainment/music/concert
Steve Martin and Martin Short have done a lot: "SCTV," "SNL," stand-up, books, movies, plays, music, TV shows.
Far too much to name here.
However, we do have the resources to pick some of the best things they've done (and a couple of the best things they've done together), just in case you need some extra Martin and Short in your life.
(Don't we all?)
The hapless exploits of Martin and John Candy are classic. ("Those aren't pillows!") And it's just as funny the 20th time you see it.
"The Long-Awaited Album"
Martin's been playing banjo as long as he's been telling jokes. And this 2017 album deftly combines his comedy with his musical mastery. It's good.
"Born Standing Up"
Released more than a decade ago, Martin's memoir starts with his early life working at Disneyland and even recounts why he quit stand-up.
Jiminy Glick
Short's been putting on a fat suit to play the ridiculous television interviewer for more than two decades, and the character is Short wackiness taken to the extreme.
Before he was on "SNL" and in a host of other shows and movies, Short was a cast member on this wacky sketch show. It's where he originated characters like Jackie Rogers Jr. and Ed Grimley.
It wasn't a hit when it was released. In fact, the movie about a young boy (Short) staying with his uncle (Charles Grodin) was a bomb and critics hated it. But it's become a cult classic.
The first time Martin and Short met was on "Three Amigos," and together with Chevy Chase, the pair made a hilarious and infinitely quotable film.
Martin as the straight man fretting about his daughter's impending nuptials and Short as the wacky European wedding planner make for the best scenes in the movie.

9. (tie) "The Fate of the Furious"
Budget: $250 million
Worldwide box office: $1.24 billion
I love and hate the following fact: This movie, the eighth in the "Fast and Furious" franchise, had the biggest worldwide opening of all time. It made $541.9 million in its first weekend. These movies are money well spent.
9. (tie) "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"
Worldwide box office: $934.4 million
The most expensive of the "Potter" movies.
9. (tie) "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies"
Worldwide box office: $956 million
All those big CG armies. So expensive to render. So painful to look at.
9. (tie) "Captain America: Civil War"
It ended up becoming the fifth-highest-grossing superhero movie of all time, behind "Iron Man 3," "Black Panther," "Avengers: Age of Ultron" and (No. 1) "The Avengers," which grossed $1.52 billion worldwide.
9. (tie) "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice"
It was considered a box office disappointment for failing to reach $1 billion. Another fun fact about this movie: It's trash.
8. "Spider-Man 3"
7. "Tangled"
The most expensive (fully) animated movie ever made. It cost a lot to render all that hair.
6. "John Carter"
Budget: $263.7 million
This is the fiasco on this list. The 2012 Taylor Kitsch sci-fi epic lost Disney between $100 million to $200 million, once all the other costs (marketing, distribution, etc.) were accounted for. It is, by some estimates, the biggest box office bomb of all time.
Worldwide box office: $1.4 billion
These movies just cost a lot.
2. (tie) "Avengers: Infinity War"
It's looking like it will score a $500 million worldwide opening this weekend, though that would still put it behind the record-holder: Last year's "Fate of the Furious" scored a $541.9 million worldwide opening. (The world makes no sense.)
2. (tie) "Justice League"
The movie industry-tracking site Deadline estimated that the film lost Warner Bros. about $60 million by the time all the other costs (marketing, distribution, etc.) were accounted for.
2. (tie) "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End"
The first movie to crack a $300 million budget.
1. "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides"
Budget: $378.5 million *
Yes, the most expensive movie ever made is the fourth "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie. The five movies have made $4.5 billion combined.
* According to The Numbers, a movie site that tracks financial data, "Avatar" cost $425 million to make, which would make it the most expensive movie ever. But other sources estimated a lower budget, putting it behind "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides."
Some of the most expensive back-to-back movie projects.
Starting with the second two "Back to the Future" installments, Hollywood began to greenlight and make trilogies or sequels back-to-back. This was a less expensive way to tackle the projects than making the movies separately and years apart.
"Back to the Future Part II" and "Part III" (1989–1990)
Combined budget: $80 million
"The Matrix Reloaded" and "The Matrix Revolutions" (2003) were greenlit together on the heels of the smash success of 1999's "The Matrix."
Combined budget: $237 million
Pretty soon they just started making full trilogies all at once.
"The Lord of the Rings" trilogy (2001-2003)
Sometimes they adapted short, wonderful books into needlessly bloated movie trilogies. Because, you know ... $$$$$$$$$$.
"The Hobbit" trilogy (2012-2014)
13 of the most expensive movies of all time
By Micah Mertes / World-Herald staff writer
Movies are expensive — especially movies in which people fly or cities are destroyed or Johnny Depp is a pirate.
"Avengers: Infinity War," in theaters this week, is actually the second-most-expensive movie ever made, coming in at an eye-popping $300 million. And that's just its production budget (marketing adds another $150 million to the price tag).
With $$$ on our minds mind, we looked into the other biggest and budget-est movies of the modern era. These are the most expensive movies ever made, followed by some of the most expensive movie series ever made back-to-back.
Note: Numbers are unadjusted for inflation.
Note 2: A lot of movies are ties.
