BONUS QUESTION: Name the first movie to have a robot/cyborg character.
Fritz Lang's (Director/writer) Metropolis (1927). Made in Germany, it was the first movie to show a woman built from a machine with skin, hair, eyes and emotions. The first man-made cyborg.
BONUS QUESTION 2: Name James Cameron's first feature length film.
Xenogenesis (1978) Written and Directed by James Cameron. His second movie is Piranha II: The Spawning (1981) as director only.
BONUS QUESTION 3: Name the only Tagline for a film to include the word "Penis".
BONUS QUESTION 4: Name the first movie to have racist comments and/or images.
BONUS QUESTION 5: Name the machine that was used to create the first true motion picture camera and name its inventor and the year it was invented.
OB1/ Why do you like Akira Kurosawa over all of the European and American authors and directors? Kurosawa's films actually dont look that great in comparison to films of the same period from other parts of the world. I mean, at most, he's barely at the level of Spielberg and I wouldn't say he's that great either. He's a great DP and he knows how to light a scene but he really simply tells the story vividly without construction more on the basis of hidden context or the 'invisible parts' of the film.
