![]() ![]() The second installment in the Fifty Shades film series and the sequel to the 2015 film Fifty Shades of Grey, it stars Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan as Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey, respectively, with Eric Johnson, Eloise Mumford, Bella Heathcote, Rita Ora, Luke Grimes, Victor Rasuk, Kim Basinger, and Marcia Gay Harden in supporting roles. ![]() This news comes to us from The New York Times.Fifty Shades Darker is a 2017 American erotic romantic drama film directed by James Foley and written by Niall Leonard, based on E. ![]() ![]() In the long term it doesn’t seem to have done too much damage to Jamie Dornan’s future prospects, and if with Marvel’s Cinematic Universe always needing new stars, there is very little to suggest that he will not get his superhero wish sometime in the future. And I’m not saying I don’t recognize why those books were so powerful for millions of people, but you aren’t going to have books that were horrifically critiqued turned into movies that will be critically acclaimed. Why? Because, guess what? The majority of people hated the books. Take that project you know that loads of people are going to hate it – hate it – before they have even seen it. He added, "Sometimes you can be pleasantly surprised sometimes you can be bitterly disappointed. But you do know what you are getting into and I did spend a lot of time weighing up whether to take the Fifty Shades role." He explained, “There has to be an acceptance with acting, taking jobs, that you don’t ultimately have control over some things. Also, since my dad died, it's lit this extra fire within me, this extra burner of wanting to succeed."ĭornan recently spoke about his Fifty Shades of Grey role and how looks back on it and how it was a tough decision whether to take on the part in the often ridiculed erotic phenomenon. It's like a necessity to deliver and provide, very caveman-esque: I must succeed for these precious little people. I'm more ambitious than I’ve ever let on before. I think you need to be in that comic-book world to really grab their attention. "What have I done, three war movies? You'd think that might help my cause out a little bit with straight men, but probably not. And those films aren't financed on his name had he not been in these movies that made billions of dollars."Ĭontinuing to discuss how after becoming a heartthrob to female fans thanks to his role as Christian Grey, Dornan said he could see a superhero role helping expand his fan base to a new audience in a way he hasn’t been able to achieve so far. Everything he's done since Twilight has been really smart and beautifully crafted. "I would be lying if I didn't admit that I feel like him and his people have played it really cleverly. It also appears that his aspirations of becoming a superhero have already begun to take a step in the right direction as he has already spoken to Marvel boss Kevin Feige about fulfilling his ambition.ĭuring a lengthy interview with The New York Times, Dornan discussed his future hopes and compared it to the transformation his friend Robert Pattinson has had between his teen idol Twilight days and his upcoming role as Batman. While there are some actors who still turn up their noses at the idea of appearing in a Marvel movie, the vast majority are eagerly awaiting the call to arms that would see them join the MCU’s elite and it seems that Fifty Shades of Grey star Jamie Dornan is one of them. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Q: I'm purchasing a second UAD-2 device but I already own the included plug-in bundle.

![]() The developer basically remade all my fond memories of Genesis-era Sonic with beautiful graphics, then added the modern platforming genre conventions to which I’d become accustomed. I feel like Sega made this game just for old Sonic fans like me. You get to play as both, racing through classic side-scrolling levels as the old Sonic and grinding through 3D roller-coasters with the new one. In Generations, classic-look Sonic meets his 21st century update. And guess what? I’m happy I did! Here’s the kicker: I say that not for the nostalgia of playing old Genesis games, but for the nostalgia-rama that is Sonic Generations. I skipped lunch* and used that $10 instead for Sonic games. One the one hand, it included Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and a bunch of other Sonics from that era - nostalgia! But then again, it also included a bunch of the newer Sonic games that I’d come to equate with mediocrity. Still, I could get them all for $10… So when Humble Bundle recently announced a 25th anniversary Sonic bundle, you might say I was conflicted. Maybe that’s the problem. Whereas there tends to be multiple years between each major Mario game (not counting various spin-offs, remakes, etc.), it feels like there’s at least two new Sonic games a year. Nowadays, there just isn’t the same fanfare when a new Sonic games comes out, which is pretty damn often. Apparently, spunky mascots with ‘tude belonged to the ’90s. Also, Sonic just wasn’t as cool as he used to be. There wasn’t much incentive, either, since most of these new Sonic games received mixed reviews. I never got a Dreamcast, so I missed Sonic’s foray into 3D adventures. And I guess I’ve always looked back fondly at Sonic since then. But you know, even though there were so many times when I wanted to slam my controller into the wall, I can’t deny that game provided many hours of fun. I don’t think we ever beat the game, though. On one particularly brilliant day, we worked out that it was easier to focus if you muted the soundtrack. We’d take turns, switching off every level or when one of us lost a life. I got pretty far with the help of my friend Adam (yes, he was also Adam no, he wasn’t imaginary). Plus, there was no way to save (this feature was pretty rare in the early ’90s), so Game Over meant playing the whole damn game over. The level pictured above, Chemical Plant Zone, comes fairly early, and yet it took me forever just to survive the part where pink toxic water fills up over Sonic’s head and you have to get him out before he drowns. ![]() He was really fast, he looked cool and yet kind of angry, and his best friend was a flying fox - not like a massive Australian bat, but an actual fox who could fly! (Please note that this blogger was in elementary school at the time.) But I’ll be honest with you - I was pretty bad at this game. Chemical Plant Zone has one of the catchiest theme songs ever. The first game I played Sonic the Hedgehog 2. I won! I figure it was either probability (I did stuff the ballot) or the store manager’s pity (“Wow, this poor Adam Bender kid REALLY wants a Genesis.”) Look, the important thing is that I got the Genesis. Naturally, I filled out five forms…on every shopping trip for a month. All you had to do to enter was fill out a form and stick it in the box. It felt a little like fate that day at Genuardi’s when I learned the grocery store had a lottery to give away a new Genesis core system. Sadly, my parents refused to buy me a second gaming system. My first console was Super Nintendo, but I remember hungering to own a Sega Genesis. ![]() ![]() That was a time when Nintendo and Sega were big rivals, with the SNES head to head against the Genesis. I didn’t have much loyalty to either brand at the time. It’s hard to believe, but it’s the 25th anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog, that blue blur who gave Mario a run for the money (coins? rings?) back in the ’90s. Celebrate Sonic’s 25th Birthday with ‘Sonic Generations’ Nope, you’re older than that, Sonic. ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() This NVidia driver glitch has been crashing Cycles in Blender3D for years. ![]() It has now been over a year since Poser 11 was released with Cycles built-in, and NVidia has done nothing to fix the issue. The NVidia driver crashes badly, sometimes taking Windows down with it (BSOD). In my tests, this bogs Cycles potential down, not allowing the more powerful GPU accelerated mode to be enabled in Poser or Blender3D. Both support hardware GPU acceleration, but NVidia drivers can crash Cycles if BPT (Branched Path Tracing) is enabled in GPU mode. How fast they render depends a lot on your hardware grade. It's a matter of offering the best method depending on what the scene is made of.Ĭycles and Iray sit in between these two (Lux and Octane), offering only a single rendering method, but still with a decent set of features. ![]() But even PMC is faster than BPT when your scene has lots of refractions and caustics. It's lightning fast in all modes, except for PMC because it's the slowest method by nature. It can go from quick biased, all the way to fully unbiased Monte Carlo raytracing engine (PMC), having a middle-ground Bidirectional Path Tracing engine (BPT) for everything else. It features a multi-kernel engine where we can choose which rendering method will better suit the scene. On the other side, Octane is the fastest and most optimized rendering engine I know of, and can easily beat all of the competition in rendering speeds. They have managed to optimize its speed more recently, like it's now 20X faster than before, but it's still the slowest from the bunch. For instance, Lux renderer has the most accurate lighting model, and can produce the most realistic renders at the cost of longer rendering times. It's those differences in interpretation that make the differences in the results. If both Cycles and Iray are unbiased renderers, then what is the difference between them? Each unbiased rendering engine uses its own "interpretation" of how real light behaves, but aim for the same goals. Iray is better with glass, but both are pretty good with metals. The very definition of PBR (Physically-based Rendering) is based on what is metallic and what is not. That is something very difficult to obtain from biased renders such as Firefly and 3Delight. If your scene has a mix of metals with other materials, Cycles and Iray can make the metals stand out with realistic renders. What unbiased can surely do, however, is to create realistic representations of glass and (especially) metallic materials. That will depend on setting up your materials and lights properly. That is, by no means, a guarantee that Iray or Cycles will make your renders more realistic. Conversely, an "unbiased" renderer tries to handle lights as they behave in the real world, and hence can produce more realistic images with way less effort, and with more predictable results. It's not only over-simplistic, but it can look completely wrong in some cases, and the results can be unpredictable. In other words, a "biased" renderer fakes lighting in a rather simplistic manner as means to produce a quick but inaccurate image. Well, the differences are fundamental because Firefly/3Delight are biased renders, while Cycles/Iray are unbiased. Likewise, it won’t make much sense to couple cards with a very large gap of computational capabilities - the slower cards might create a bottleneck for the faster cards.A lot of people ask what is the difference (or advantage) between Firefly/3Delight and Cycles/Iray. However, be warned that each card has to fit the whole scene in its memory, so it won’t make any sense to couple a 1GB card with one or more 3GB cards, when your scene requires for example 2GB: the first card will set the overall bar to 1GB therefore iray will fail while trying use the GPUs. Today you can purchase even more powerful cards. A typical professional configuration used to be 1x Quadro 5000 + 3x Tesla C2050. ![]() You can mix different types of CUDA GPU models on the same machine, and iray will use them all. However, it is recommended to disable iray’s CPU support when using CUDA GPU(s), because the CPU(s) are very likely to create a bottleneck (they are slower than the GPUs). iray can run on the CPU(s) alone, but it is really not recommended to do so - iray’s magic is possible thanks to the CUDA technology, the CPUs alone are too slow.īy default, iray will use all the available GPU(s) and CPU(s) simultaneously. Non-CUDA GPU cards will not work, iray will simply ignore them. On the contrary, it is strongly recommended to run iray with one or more CUDA GPUs. You may leave SLI active, but it is recommended to deactivate it, since performance tests indicate that SLI may slow down the rendering process. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It would appear as if some of the new plug-ins, especially where 3rd parties are involved, that the licensing terms and conditions prevent Waves from including them in bundles.

However, a large number of existing deals that the series has with its partners are mid to long term, meaning that there was reduced pressure to negotiate deals. The restricted calendar and lack of spectators meant that Dorna had to find new ways of connecting with sponsors. The MotoGP paddock was restricted to around 1,500 people to allow the series to operate safely We were travelling through Europe but there were no spectators except in Le Mans and Misano but in a limited number on the Sundays”. “We reduced the number of people that could attend the Grands Prix, around 1,500 people. “Finally, we found a good way with good protocol to run it”, Dorna managing director Pau Serracanta tells the BlackBook. As the virus spread across the world, Dorna was unsure how many races and in which locations the series could run. Wherever Rossi goes, it won’t be to a factory team, because KTM and Ducati are full up, too.The worsening of the Covid-19 pandemic presented significant challenges for the MotoGP paddock and the series’ commercial rights holder Dorna Sports. Nobody’s confirmed this yet, mind you, it’s all gossip. There, he’d ride with just-signed Franco Morbidelli. Well, word is that Rossi may be trading places with Quartararo on Petronas. Remember, Fabio Quartararo is moving from Petronas up to the big factory team at season’s end, leaving question marks about the future of Valentino Rossi. Over on the Yamaha team, there’s more scheming going on. Thanks, Cal! We’ve grown tired of you, just like Yamaha did, so find your fortune elsewhere, despite all the good work you’ve done! No doubt Crutchlow is none too pleased about being shuffled aside as part of this maneuvering, but what can he do about it? Word on the street is that he’s moving to Aprilia, maybe? He’d probably be a force back in World Superbike, but MotoGP wants to keep him in their series, to keep British viewers engaged, and try to prolong the facade that this isn’t basically a Spanish series.Įnough of Big Red’s politics. HRC wish him all the best in his future endeavours.” With three wins and 12 podiums, the British rider has been a valuable asset on and off track – a constant source of excellent feedback for the engineers and a key part of developing the Honda RC213V in recent years. “HRC would like to extend their thanks to Cal Crutchlow for his diligent and tireless work since joining HRC in 2015. Because he’s moving to the LCR team for the next two years, longtime foot soldier Cal Crutchlow is getting punted. This isn’t just bad news for Alex Marquez. Wonder what big brother Marc has to say about that? But, Honda’s signed Pol Espargaro to the top squad, and that means the younger Marquez is off the team. Wait, what? Alex hasn’t put in a single race with the factory team, and he’s already getting demoted? Weird. The two biggest changes: Alex Marquez, brother and teammate of eight-time world champion Marc Marquez, is moving from the Honda factory team to the LCR Honda satellite team. ![]() ![]() Both Yamaha and Honda’s factory teams are making changes, and that means impacts on other teams as well. So, racing begins in earnest this weekend, but even before this season kicks off, all the teams are looking at next year. Series organizers have whittled the season down to a shortened list of European events, with maybe a visit to Argentina, Thailand or Malaysia later (they cancelled the Austin GP last week). Of course, the 2020 MotoGP season was nearly nuked by COVID-19 pandemic so far, Moto2 and Moto3 raced at Qatar, but there hasn’t been anything else since. Alex Marquez is changing teams, Rossi is supposedly going to a satellite team-everyone’s juggling their roster. MotoGP opens this weekend at Jerez, but before the first race of the season, there’s considerable lineup shuffling going on, for the 2021 campaign. Cal Crutchlow may get into a few wildcard entries, but he's gone from LCR Honda and now has a test rider role with Yamaha. ![]() |
