:oops: :lol:

Epizodas 01:"A Clean Escape"

Teleplay by Emmy Nominee Sam Egan
Based on the short story by Nebula Award Winner John Kessel
Directed by Academy Award Nominee Mark Rydell (For the Boys, On Golden Pond)
Starring Two-time Academy Award Nominee Judy Davis (The Break Up, Marie Antoinette) and Academy Award Nominee Sam Waterston (The Killing Fields, ‘Law & Order’)

A dying Dr. Deanna Evans refuses to believe that her patient, Robert Havelmann, cannot remember the last 25 years of his life. It remains unclear why she has been so obsessed with this particular patient until the final, shocking conclusion.

Epizodas 02: "The Awakening"

Teleplay by Michael Petroni
Based on a short story by Howard Fast
(Spartacus, ‘The Crossing’)
Directed by Michael Petroni
(The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys)
Starring Terry O'Quinn (‘Lost’, Stepfather), Elisabeth Rohm (‘Law & Order’, ‘Angel’)

In the middle of a ferocious firefight outside of Baghdad, US soldiers discover a mysterious body—one that they can’t even identify as human. Swiftly, all over the earth, more such creatures appear and begin to communicate. With this contact, the world is forced to choose between peace and destruction.

Epizodas 03: "Jerry Was a Man"

Teleplay by Michael Tolkin
Based on the short story by seven-time Hugo Award Winner & Science Fiction Grand Master Laureate Robert A. Heinlein
Directed by Academy Award Nominee Michael Tolkin (The New Age, The Rapture)
Starring Emmy Award Winner Anne Heche (John Q, Psycho), Malcolm McDowell (Cat People, A Clockwork Orange)

Mr. and Mrs. Bronson Van Vogel are the seventh-richest couple in the world. Pleasure is their only work; mundane or dangerous chores are done by anthropoids. All the anthropoids—a few strands of human DNA, grown into a baby and fused with plastics—are named “Joe.” Somehow, Mrs. Van Vogel’s dormant compassion is awakened by a Joe named Jerry. What traits would prove that Jerry is, indeed, a man?

Epizodas 04: "The Discarded"


Teleplay by Harlan Ellison (The Terminator, ‘The Outer Limits’) and Josh Olson (A History of Violence)
Based on a short story by Harlan Ellison
Directed by Jonathan Frakes (Star Trek: Insurrection, Star Trek: First Contact)
Starring John Hurt (V for Vendetta, Harry Potter), Brian Dennehy (Assault on Precinct 13, Cocoon), James Denton (‘Desperate Housewives’, ‘The Pretender’)

The ultimate story of despised minorities forever adrift in the darkness of outer space. As a last resort – born out of their loneliness and despair – they are forced to make an ominous pact with those responsible for their plight, in the hope that they will finally be offered refuge at home on Earth.

Epizodas 05: "Little Brother"

Teleplay by Walter Mosley (Devil in a Blue Dress, Always Outnumbered)
Based on a short story from
Walter Mosley’s novel Futureland
Directed by Damell Martin (‘Grey’s Anatomy’,
Their Eyes Were Watching God)
Starring Clifton Collins, Jr. (Capote, Traffic), Kimberly Elise (‘Close to Home’, The Manchurian Candidate)

In a future world where courtrooms exist without human judges or juries, automated justice is the law of the land. Sitting before a kiosk which is itself the judge, jury, and executioner of the future, Fredon must find a way to convince the machine of his innocence – or find some other way to save himself before time runs out.

Epizodas 06: "Watchbird"

Teleplay by J. Michael Straczynski (‘Babylon 5’,
‘The Twilight Zone’)
Based on a short story by Robert Sheckley
(Freejack, Escape from Hell Island)
Written by Hugo Award Winner Sam Egan
Directed by Harold Becker (Mercury Rising, Sea of Love)
Starring Sean Astin (Rudy, Lord of the Rings Trilogy), James Cromwell (The Green Mile, The Queen) and Sally Kellerman as the voice of The Watchbird

It seems the perfect solution to a ballooning crime rate – filling the skies with flying robotic droids that can prevent murder before it takes place. However, nobody told these “Watchbirds” that all life depends on a formula of carefully balanced killing. Robert Sheckley’s renowned story examines one of the most important questions of our time – is it wise to sacrifice our liberty in the name of our security?

įdomus projektas, nors režisieriai ir jų filmai didelio įspūdžio nepadarė. Bet gal tarp fantastų ir aukštai jie vertinami. Tik Masters of horror populiarumo manyčiau nepakartos...;)

Perskaičius pavadinimus ir siužeto apibūdinimus, prisiminiau keletą apsakymų, pagal kuriuos sukurtos kaikurios iš šių istorijų. Na kūryniai pasirinkti tikrai Neblogi, o ypač kilo noras pažiurėti "Watchbird" ekranizaciją (kiek pamenu apsakymas buvo publikuotas vienoje "Eridano" knygų). Taip pat sudomino "Little Brother" siužetas.

Na ką, pažiūrėjau pirmąjį epizodą, "A Clean Escape"; jei ne keletas scenų, tai būtų praktiškai dviejų žmonių dialoginis TV-teatras, žodžiu ekranizacija minimalistiška, tačiau jos ir užteko perteikt paprastai, bet neblogai idėjai; vertinu teigiamai.

MOH verta tikrai pažiūrėti.

MOSF yra tik 3 jau išleistos, tv.com turi 8 parašytas, tačiau įdomu kiek planuojama kurti aplamai?

"The Awakening" eksploatuoja panašią idėją kaip ir pirmojoj daly, tik viskas skysčiau ir optimistiškai naivu; nepatiko.

"Jerry Was a Man" - gero apsakymo gera ekranizacija su neblogais aktoriais.

Na paziurejau jau tris serijas :) ir visos labai idomios. Sakyciau geriau nei X-Failai.

P.S.
Trecioji serija tai ten labiau komedija su fantastikos elementais, nors ideja patiko. Kokio ten apsakymo ekranizacija ? Heinleina pamenu, skaiciau keleta jo knygu. Tad apsakyma tureciau prisimint teoriskai, nes pavadinimas atrodo girdetas. Anyway, lauksim kit seriju :twisted:
