Antarctica lives in our dreams as the most remote, the most forbidding continent on Planet Earth. It is a huge land covered with ice as thick as three miles, seemingly invulnerable, cold and dark for eight months of the year. Yet Antarctica is also a fragile place, home to an incredible variety of life along its edges, arguably the most stunning, breathtaking and still-pristine place on earth. The one constant is that it is constantly changing, every season, every day, every hour. I've been fortunate to travel to Antarctica many times; most recently with 3D cameras, a first for the continent. The result is our new film, Antarctica: On the Edge.

《生命海洋》是IMAX1995年二月上映的反映大海的一部纪录片,它在呈现给我们海底美丽与神奇的画面以外更加侧重表现了人类与大海生生相息的关系,全片仅40分钟,但包括了很多内容:有介绍海底风光的绚丽画面、也有与大海拚搏人们的激情展现、还有研究大海科学家们的沉思,当然也少不了夏日里面海边俊男美女。在《海中颜面博览会》中,我们欣赏到了海底的奇幻世界,而在这部的反映大海的影片中,我们主要看到的是人类是如何与大海息息相关,人类是如何在大海的怀抱中生存,我们会看到岸边那白色的帆船随着日出划向大海的深处,伴着日落静静的停靠在岸边,我们还会看到原来依靠大海生存的土著部落现在是如何依靠科技设备带着下一代去领略大海的无穷奥秘,我们更会看到缤纷夏日中,不同肤色不通种族的人们尽情享受大海带来的快乐。也正因为如此,本片在观众中得到的评价是截然相反的,支持的人们认为这才是真正的大海,这才真正表现了人与大海的关系,而反对的人们则要求更多的精美的海底画面。而导演Greg MacGillivray的拍摄本片的意图恰恰是着重表现人与大海的关系,正如片中的解说“大海就是生命之源”,本片主旨不在美丽的画面而在思考生命与生命之源的关系。
《执着的梦想》是一部关于早期航天飞机的纪录片。这部纪录片里面再现了航天飞机的发射、着陆过程以及宇航员的太空生活。片中最令人瞩目的片段不但有从太空拍摄的地球全景,还有宇航员们,尤其是美国第一个女宇航员太空行走的特写。 当我们回顾所有那些电影和DVD中有关人类探索太空的情节时,通常我们会想到什么?奋斗。航天计划从一开始就是无止境的冲突和混乱、试验和挫折、多灾多难和百折不挠。在乐观的背后总能看到巨大的困难,在胜利的光环下则是成千上万的意外。而这部《执着的梦想》不同。在这里,我们会对离地飞天而肃然起敬,会为从太空中观看地球之美而心跳停止,会为宇航员们的日常生活而兴味盎然。《执着的梦想》,就是这样一部珍贵的DVD,它想告诉你的就是:“嘿,怎么样,太空漫游很酷吧?” 这部IMAX电影发行于1985年,当时阿波罗计划已经过去很久。NASA面对的局面是公众普遍对航天计划漠不关心。拍这部片子仿佛就是想说:“航天非常好玩——请大家看过来,关心我们的工作。”很快所有的媒体就把目光都投向了他们,因为在1986年1月28日,发生了挑战者号爆炸事件,航天事业一下子又成了全世界的焦点。 经过了16年之后,华纳公司终于把《执着的梦想》从大银幕搬到了DVD上。与其一起发行的还有IMAX的其他一些电影。对《执着的梦想》这部老片来说,表现效果已经非常杰出了,其内容也仍然引人入胜。尽管基本上没有任何花絮,这部DVD还是非常抵买的。
The IMAX "Cosmic Voyage" film was made as a public service with sponsorship by the Smithsonian Air and Space museum. On DVD, borrowed from my local public library, it plays at just over 30 minutes with Morgan Freeman supplying a pleasing narrative. As one would expect from an IMAX film, the image quality is superb and the Dolby 5.1 sound track is very well done. Simulated cosmic explosions shake your walls! That is, if you have a good powered subwoofer in your system. The film takes a very useful approach to examining the size of the universe, from tiny sub-atomic particles to the vastness of the whole universe. (Fortunately, when God created the Universe he had dispatched a few angels with video cameras at different vantage points so we get to see actual footage from several billion years ago.) The film starts in Venice, where the discovery of the telescope originated, and uses a one-meter hoop as a reference point, then gradually goes larger by powers of 10, e.g. 10 meters, 100, 1000, etc until we can see the whole universe. Then it takes the opposite journey, going smaller by powers of 10 until be see inside sub-atomic particles. The story is well-woven with beautiful effects created especially for this film. It is entertaining and educational at the same time. All of "oldsters" can enjoy it for the scientific history we are already familiar with, and all the "youngsters" can enjoy it for the educational supplement it provides. Overall a masterful film. Any numerical "rating" of "Cosmic Voyage" is meaningless. If one is looking for a superb film about our universe and modern theories of its formation, this one is hard to beat. Kudos to IMAX and to the Air and Space Museum. 肉眼只能看见穹苍一角。凝视夜空,但见繁星点点,偶尔一颗流星划破夜空,但你可曾看见恒星死亡前的最后爆发?瞪视双手,你或会看见点点尘垢,但你又可曾看见组成皮肤的原子在颤动?因为眼不能见,我们只能纵驰想像,去探索这个深邃广阔的宇宙。 本片获第六十九届奥斯卡金像奖最佳纪录短片提名.
Witness the immense power, beauty and diversity of the Amazon region, from its source in the high Andes through the rain forest canopy and into the Amazon basin. Amazon is the story of two medicine men from vastly different worlds sharing a common quest: the search for the medicinal qualities of native plants.
Volcanoes, earthquakes, and tornadoes all can cause enormous damage, and predicting where and when they will strike is of great importance. Volcanologist Dr. Marie Edmonds has devised sensors that monitor the underground activity of magma to better predict future eruptions on the Caribbean island of Monserrat, the site of the massive 1995 eruption captured for this film. Geophysicist Dr. Ross Stein studied the earthquake repair records in Istanbul's Hagia Sophia over the centuries to find clues about the history of earthquakes in Turkey. He discovers a pattern in quakes along the long North Anatolian Fault system, including the massively destructive quake at Izmit in 1999, and predicts the next earthquake just a few miles south of Istanbul. Dr. Joshua Wurman and his team chase tornados in trucks equipped with Doppler radar in an attempt to probe the interior of a tornado just as it is born.
