The Walking Dead   is an American  horror   drama   television series developed by  Frank Darabont , based on the  comic book series of the same name   by  Robert Kirkman ,  Tony Moore , and  Charlie Adlard .  Andrew Lincoln plays the show's lead character, sheriff's deputy  Rick Grimes ,[ 3]   who awakens from a months-long coma to confront a new, apocalyptic world overrun by flesh-eating  zombies .[ 4]

Grimes reunites with his family and becomes the leader of a group he forms with some of the many other survivors whom he encounters in his quest for a safe haven. Together they are forced to survive and adapt in a world filled with the zombies (aka walkers) and certain humans who are even more dangerous than the zombies themselves.[ 5]   The first season takes place in the  Atlanta metropolitan area , and the second through fourth seasons are set in the surrounding countryside of northern  Georgia .[ 4]

The Walking Dead   premiered in the U.S. on October 31, 2010, on the cable television channel  AMC [ 6]   and internationally in November 2010 on  Fox International Channels .[ 7]   AMC has renewed the series each year because of its consistently increasing  Nielsen ratings   which have been unprecedentedly high for a cable series, including averaging the most 18- to 49-year-old adult viewers of any cable or broadcast television series during its fourth and fifth seasons.[ 8]   The latter's season finale aired on March 29, 2015, and the series has been renewed for a sixth season.[ 9]   In addition, AMC has ordered a  companion series ,  Fear the Walking Dead , to debut in summer 2015.[ 10]

Zombie From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about fictional figures. For figures from Haitian folklore, see  Zombie (folklore) . For other uses, see  Zombie (disambiguation) . George A. Romero 's  Night of the Living Dead   is considered a progenitor of the fictional zombie of modern culture.

Zombies   are undead creatures, typically depicted as mindless, reanimated human corpses with a hunger for human flesh. Zombies are most commonly found in  horror   and  fantasy   genre works. The term comes from  Haitian folklore   (Haitian French :  zombi ,  Haitian Creole :  zonbi ) where a  zombie   is a dead body animated by magic. Modern depictions of zombies do not necessarily involve magic but invoke other methods such as a virus.[ 1] [ 2]

Zombies have a complex literary heritage, with antecedents ranging from  Richard Matheson   and  H. P. Lovecraft   to  Mary Shelley 's  Frankenstein   drawing on European folklore of the  undead .  George A. Romero 's reinvention of the monster for his 1968 film  Night of the Living Dead   led to several zombie films in the 1980s and a resurgence of popularity in the 2000s. The "zombie apocalypse" concept, in which the civilized world is brought low by a global zombie infestation, became a staple of modern popular art.

The  English   word "zombie" is first recorded in 1819, in a history of  Brazil   by the poet  Robert Southey , in the form of "zombi".[ 3]   The  Oxford English Dictionary   gives the origin of the word as West African, and compares it to theKongo   words  nzambi   (god) and  zumbi   (fetish).

One of the first books to expose Western culture to the concept of the Vodou zombie was  The Magic Island   by  W.B. Seabrook   in 1929. This is the sensationalized account of a narrator who encounters  voodoo   cults in  Haiti   and their resurrected thralls.  Time   claimed that the book "introduced 'zombi' into U.S. speech".[ 4]

In 1932,  Victor Halperin   directed  White Zombie , a horror film starring  Bela Lugosi . Here zombies are depicted as mindless, unthinking henchmen under the spell of an evil magician. Zombies, often still using this voodoo-inspired rationale, were initially uncommon in cinema, but their appearances continued sporadically through the 1930s to the 1960s, with notable films including  I Walked with a Zombie   (1943) and  Plan 9 from Outer Space (1959).

How these creatures came to be called "zombies" is not fully clear. The film  Night of the Living Dead   made no spoken reference to its undead antagonists as "zombies", describing them instead as "ghouls ", (though ghouls, which derive from Arabic folklore, are demons, not undead). Although George Romero used the term "ghoul" in his original scripts, in later interviews he used the term "zombie". The word "zombie" is used exclusively by Romero in his 1978 script for his sequel  Dawn of the Dead ,[ 5]   including once in dialog. According to George Romero, film critics were influential in associating the term "zombie" to his creatures, and especially the French magazine "Les Cahiers du Cinéma". He eventually accepted this linkage even though he remained convinced at the time that "zombies" corresponded to the undead slaves of  Haitian Vodou   as depicted in  Bela Lugosi 's  White Zombie .[ 6]

Notable powersPowerful magical abilities

Willow Rosenberg   is a fictional character created for the fantasy television series  Buffy the Vampire Slayer   (1997–2003). She was developed by  Joss Whedon   and portrayed throughout the TV series by  Alyson Hannigan .

Willow plays an integral role within the inner circle of friends—called the  Scooby Gang —who support  Buffy Summers , a teenager gifted with superhuman powers to defeat vampires, demons, and other evil in the fictional town of  Sunnydale . The series begins as Buffy, Willow, and their friend  Xander   are in 10th grade and Willow is a shy and nerdy girl with little confidence. She has inherent magical abilities and begins to study witchcraft; as the series progresses, Willow becomes more sure of herself and her magical powers become significant if inconsistent. Her dependence on magic becomes so consuming that it develops into a dark force that takes her on a redemptive journey in a major  story arc   when she becomes the sixth season's main villain, threatening to destroy the world in a fit of grief and rage.

The  Buffy   series became extremely popular and earned a devoted fanbase; Willow's intelligence, shy nature, and vulnerability often resounded strongly with viewers in early seasons. Of the core characters, Willow changes the most, becoming a complex portrayal of a woman whose powers force her to seek balance between what is best for the people she loves and what she is capable of doing. Her character stood out as a positive portrayal of a Jewish woman and at the height of her popularity, she fell in love with another woman, a witch named  Tara Maclay . They became one of the first lesbian couples on U.S. television and one of the most positive relationships of the series. Willow appears in every  Buffy   episode (making her the only character besides Buffy herself to do so), is featured in three episodes of the spinoff  Angel , an animated series and video game—both of which use Hannigan's voice, and the comic  Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight   (2007–2011), which uses Hannigan's likeness and continues Willow's storyline following the television series.

Tara Maclay   is a recurring character created for the action-horror/fantasy television series  Buffy the Vampire Slayer   (1997–2003). She was developed by  Joss Whedon   and portrayed by  Amber Benson . Tara is a shy young woman with magical talents who falls in love with  Willow Rosenberg , one of the core characters. Together, they help  Buffy Summers , who has been given superhuman powers to defeat evil forces in the fictional town of  Sunnydale .

Willow was a popular character when Tara was introduced, and the onset of their relationship was met with some resistance from fans. Tara grows from a reserved girl who is unsure of herself to being the moral center of Buffy's circle of friends, named the  Scooby Gang . Her relationship with Willow is consistently positive, and the first recurring depiction of a lesbian couple on prime time network series television in the United States. Tara is killed by a stray gunshot toward the end of the sixth season, causing Willow to go on a rampage. Series writers and producers received angry protests from some fans when Tara was killed, including accusations ofhomophobia . Whedon upheld that it was the necessary course to take to propel Willow's story arc further; both the show's producers and Amber Benson deny that there was any malicious intent behind the decision. Tara was included in  AfterEllen.com 's Top 50 Lesbian and Bisexual Characters, ranking at No. 15.[ 1]

Marilyn Monroe [ 1] [ 2]   (born  Norma Jeane Mortenson ; June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962)[ 3]   was an American actress, model, and singer, who became a major  sex symbol , starring in a number of commercially successful motion pictures during the 1950s and early 1960s.[ 4]

After spending much of her childhood in  foster homes , Monroe began a career as a model, which led to a film contract in 1946 with  Twentieth Century-Fox . Her early film appearances were minor, but her performances inThe Asphalt Jungle   and  All About Eve   (both 1950) drew attention. By 1952 she had her first leading role in  Don't Bother to Knock [ 5]   and 1953 brought a lead in  Niagara , a melodramatic  film noir   that dwelt on her seductiveness. Her 'dumb blonde ' persona was used to comic effect in subsequent films such as  Gentlemen Prefer Blondes   (1953),  How to Marry a Millionaire   (1953) and  The Seven Year Itch   (1955). Limited bytypecasting , Monroe studied at the  Actors Studio   to broaden her range. Her dramatic performance in  Bus Stop   (1956) was hailed by critics and garnered a  Golden Globe   nomination. Her production company, Marilyn Monroe Productions, released  The Prince and the Showgirl   (1957), for which she received a  BAFTA Award   nomination and won a  David di Donatello   award. She received a  Golden Globe Award   for her performance inSome Like It Hot   (1959). Monroe's last completed film was  The Misfits   (1961), co-starring  Clark Gable , with a screenplay written by her then-husband,  Arthur Miller .

The final years of Monroe's life were marked by illness, personal problems, and a reputation for unreliability and being difficult to work with. Ever since Monroe's death from an overdose of  barbiturates   on August 5, 1962,the exact circumstances   have been subject to conjecture. Though officially classified as a "probable suicide", the possibilities of an accidental overdose or a homicide have not been ruled out. In 1999, Monroe was ranked as the  sixth-greatest female star of all time   by the  American Film Institute . In the decades following her death, she has often been cited as both a  pop   and a  cultural icon   as well as the quintessential American sex symbol.[ 6] [ 7] [ 8]   In 2009,  TV Guide Network   named her No. 1 in  Film's Sexiest Women of All Time .[ 9]

Sleeping Beauty   is a 1959 American animated  musical   fantasy film   produced by  Walt Disney   based on  The Sleeping Beauty   by  Charles Perrault   and  Little Briar Rose   by  The Brothers Grimm . The 16th film in the  Walt Disney Animated Classics series , it was released to theaters on January 29, 1959, by  Buena Vista Distribution . This was the last Disney adaptation of a fairy tale for some years because of its initial  disappointing box office gross   and mixed critical reception; the studio did not return to the genre until 30 years later, after Walt Disney died, with the release of  The Little Mermaid   (1989).

The film was directed by  Les Clark ,  Eric Larson , and  Wolfgang Reitherman , under the supervision of  Clyde Geronimi , with additional story work by Joe Rinaldi, Winston Hibler,  Bill Peet ,  Ted Sears , Ralph Wright, and Milt Banta. The film's musical score and songs, featuring the work of the  Graunke Symphony Orchestra   under the direction of  George Bruns , are arrangements or adaptations of numbers from the 1890  Sleeping Beauty ballet   by  Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky .

Sleeping Beauty   was the first animated film to be photographed in the  Super Technirama 70   widescreen   process, as well as the second full-length animated feature film to be filmed in anamorphic widescreen, following Disney's own  Lady and the Tramp   four years earlier. The film was presented in  Super Technirama 70   and 6-channel stereophonic sound in first-run engagements.

It marked Disney's return to  traditional animation , as it was the studio's first traditionally animated film since  Home on the Range (2004). Co-directors Ron Clements and John Musker, directors of Disney's highly successful films  The Little Mermaid   (1989) and  Aladdin   (1992), returned to Disney to direct  The Princess and the Frog . The studio returned to a  Broadway musical -style format frequently used by Disney in the 1980s and 1990s, and features music written by composer  Randy Newman , well known for his musical involvement in  Pixar   films such as  A Bug's Life   (1998),  Monsters, Inc.   (2001),  Cars   (2006), and the  Toy Story   trilogy   (1995, 1999 and 2010).

The Princess and the Frog   opened in  limited release   in New York and Los Angeles on November 25, 2009, and in wide release on December 11, 2009.  The Princess and the Frog   was successful at the box-office, ranking first place on its opening weekend in North America, and grossing $267 million worldwide. The film received three  Academy Award   nominations at the  82nd Academy Awards : one for Best Animated Feature and two for Best Original Song. It lost to  Up   and  Crazy Heart , respectively.[ 3]   It is the first 2-D animated Disney film not to be released on VHS. The film also marked the return of Disney animated musical films based on well-known stories since the  Disney Renaissance .

The Wizard of Oz   is a 1939 American  musical   fantasy film   produced by  Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer , and the most well-known and commercially successful adaptation based on the 1900 novel  The Wonderful Wizard of Oz   byL. Frank Baum .[ 2]   The film stars  Judy Garland ;  Terry   the dog, billed as Toto;  Ray Bolger ,  Jack Haley ,  Bert Lahr ,  Frank Morgan ,  Billie Burke ,  Margaret Hamilton , with  Charley Grapewin   and  Clara Blandick , and the  Singer Midgets   as the Munchkins, with  Pat Walshe   as leader of the flying monkeys.[ 3]   Notable for its use of  Technicolor , fantasy storytelling, musical score and unusual characters, over the years it has become one of the best-known films and part of American popular culture. It also featured in cinema what may be for the time the most elaborate use of character make-ups and special effects. It was not a  box office   success on its initial release, earning only $3,017,000 on a $2,777,000 budget, despite receiving largely positive reviews.[ 1] [ 4]   The film was MGM's most expensive production at that time, and did not recoup much of the studio's investment until subsequent re-releases.[ 5]   It was nominated for six Academy Awards, including  Best Picture   but lost to  Gone with the Wind . It did win in two other categories including  Best Original Song   for "Over the Rainbow ." The song was ranked first in two lists: the  AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs   and the  Recording Industry Association of America 's "365 Songs of the Century ".

The 1956  television broadcast of the film   re-introduced the film to the public that eventually made it an annual tradition and one of the most known films in cinema history.[ 2]   The film was named the most-viewed motion picture on television syndication by the  Library of Congress   who also included the film in its  National Film Registry   in its inaugural year in 1989. Designation on the registry calls for efforts to preserve it for being "culturally, historically, and aesthetically significant".[ 6]   It is often ranked on  best-movie lists   in critics' and public polls. It is the source of many quotes referenced in modern  popular culture . It was directed primarily by  Victor Fleming (who left production to take over direction on the troubled  Gone With the Wind   production).  Noel Langley , Florence Ryerson and Edgar Allan Woolf received credit for the screenplay, but there were uncredited contributions by others. The songs were by  Edgar "Yip" Harburg   (lyrics) and  Harold Arlen   (music). The incidental music, based largely on the songs, was composed by  Herbert Stothart , with interspersed renderings from classical composers.

The Emerald City of Oz   is the sixth of  L. Frank Baum 's fourteen  Land of Oz   books. It was also adapted into a Canadian animated film in 1987. Originally published on July 20, 1910, it is the story of  Dorothy Gale   and her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em coming to live in Oz permanently. While they are toured through the  Quadling Country , the  Nome King   is assembling allies for an invasion of Oz. This is the first time in the Oz series that Baum made use of double plots for one of the books.[ 1]

Baum had intended to cease writing Oz stories with this book, but financial pressures prompted him to write and publish  The Patchwork Girl of Oz , with seven other Oz books to follow.[ 2]

The book was dedicated to "Her Royal Highness Cynthia II of Syracuse" — actually the daughter (born in the previous year, 1909) of the author's younger brother, Henry Clay "Harry" Baum.
