Stirb Langsam (1988) (German Version)

🎬 Im Sommer '88 schlich sich ein "kleiner" Actionfilm ins Avco Theatre in LA - und veränderte alles. Bevor Bruce Willis sich das berühmte Unterhemd überzog, waren Actionhelden nur Muskeln und coole Sprüche. Aber Die Hard? Der Film warf das Regelwerk gleich mal aus dem 30. Stock des Nakatomi Plaza. Was auf den ersten Blick wie noch ein "Gut gegen Böse"-Actionstreifen aussah, entpuppte sich als filmisches Erdbeben, das Hollywood für immer erschüttern sollte. Begleitet uns auf einer Reise, wie dieser "bescheidene" Film mit überschaubarem Budget zur Blaupause des modernen Actionkinos wurde und uns etwas gab, von dem wir nicht wussten, dass wir es brauchten: einen Helden, der tatsächlich blutet.🎙️

Die Hard (1988)

🎬 In the summer of '88, a "little" action movie snuck into LA's Avco Theatre and changed everything. Before Bruce Willis strapped on that famous undershirt, action heroes were all biceps and one-liners. But Die Hard? It threw the rulebook out of Nakatomi Plaza's 30th-floor window. What looked like just another "good guy vs. terrorists" flick turned into a cinematic earthquake that would shake Hollywood's foundation forever. Join us as we unpack how this "small" movie with a modest budget became the blueprint for modern action cinema and gave us something we didn't know we needed: a hero who actually bleeds.🎙️

Die immersive Rückenfigur in den Medien

Haben Sie sich je gefragt, warum einige der eindrucksvollsten Bilder in Kunst und Medien uns... einen Rücken zeigen? Begleiten Sie uns auf einer faszinierenden Reise durch die Geschichte der Rückenfigur - von stimmungsvollen Gemälden des 19. Jahrhunderts bis hin zu modernen Videospielen und sozialen Medien. Wir erkunden, wie diese einfache und doch tiefgründige Technik, Figuren von hinten zu zeigen, zu einem der wirkungsvollsten Werkzeuge des Geschichtenerzählens geworden ist und damit verändert hat, wie wir uns mit Charakteren verbinden und Geschichten in allen Medienformen erleben. Ob Sie selbst Künstler sind, Medien konsumieren oder einfach nur neugierig sind, wie Medien ihre Magie entfalten - Sie werden einen abgewandten Rücken nie wieder mit denselben Augen sehen.

🕷️ Wie erfindet man einen Superhelden neu, den das Publikum schon zweimal hat Staub schlucken (und von Spinnen beißen) sehen? In dieser Folge tauchen wir ein in den genialen Schachzug von Spider-Man: Homecoming - weg von der ausgelutschten Origin Story, hin zur frischen Teen-Dramedy. Begleitet uns auf der Reise zu sehen, wie Regisseur Jon Watts die radioaktive Spinne links liegen lässt und uns stattdessen etwas Revolutionäres präsentiert: einen Peter Parker, der gegen seinen bisher größten Gegner kämpft – die Highschool. Von TikTok bis Prüfungsstress, das ist nicht der Spider-Man eurer Eltern – das ist ein webschleudernder Einblick ins Gen-Z-Leben, der das Superhelden-Genre für immer verändert hat.
