Hey everyone,
In today's video I want to go over many mods that will improve your gameplay experience
as a stealth user.
This includes suiting armors, weapons, followers, new player homes and many gameplay improvement
mods specifically made for stealthy players.
Annotations are no longer available, but I did leave timestamps in the describtion and
comment section so you can navigate more easily between different parts..
The first mod is Sneak tools.
Sneak tools is a excelent mod for stealthy players and adds many new features.
One of these features are new stealth attacks.
With sneak tools installed you can slith someones throat while undetected if you have a dagger
or one handed sword equiped.
To execute this action simply press the activation key when behind someone while in sneak mode.
On default you will immediatly slit someones throat, but this can be further configured
in the MCM menu allowing you to choose to pickpocket or kill.
You can even choose to allow the killing of essential npc's
If you prefer not to kill someone, sneak tools also allows you to knock someone unconcious
when you are unarmed or wield a mace.
While your target is unconcious you can't drag the body around like a dead body, but
you can push it by activating it while not sneaking..
If someone sees the unconcious body they will be alerted and look around.
As long as you are not wielding weapons and don't have your fists raised up, the alerted
npc won't know it was you.
Slitting someones throat or knocking someone down isn't always succesful.
The chance of succes is based on the difference between your level and that of the npc and
whether they wear a helm or not.
Sneak tools also allows you to kill sleeping targets in sneak mode with any weapon drawn.
Another interesting feature about this mod is a new mask.
This mask allows you to hide your identity.
What this means is that any bounty you will gain while wearing this mask will dissapear
when you unequip it.
Of course no one can see you unequiping this or they will know the identity behind the
mask and the bounty will get added to your character.
Also, if you still had a bounty on your mask and someone sees you equip it, they to will
know the identity behind the mask and thus the masks bounty will get added to your normal
bounty.
If you build up a bounty wearing this mask you need to wait 24 in game hours before the
bounty of this mask resets.
This mask is very similair to Oblivion's gray cowl of nocturnal, however this mask has a
default bounty of 0.
As the author states, the mask might as well be the latest fashion in Skyrim.
Sneak tools also adds five new arrows and bolts to the game.
The first two type of arrows are water and fire arrows.
These arrows allow you to light/extinguish most fires.
As far as I've noticed it works on all fires except the giants fires.
As you can see it also seems to work perfectly fine with fires changed by mods.
This will of course allow you to make better use of sneaking in the dark.
You can put these fires back on with fire arrows.
These fire arrows can be used to slightly harm a enemie with fire damage to.
Any light sources will be lit back on after 24 hours.
You don't necesarily need arrows to achieve this.
Using the mod sneak tools, fire spells and ice spells will work just as well to lit and
unlit fires.
Another type of arrows are oil arrows.
Shooting this arrow will create a small pool of oil on the ground.
Npc's hit by this arrow will be very susceptible to fire for a moment.
And then we have noise arrows.
This type of arrow creates a noise on landing, attracting nearby npc's to the place of impact.
And finally you can craft Rope arrows.
These rope arrows function as a grapling hook.
You can shoot these on a object and a rope will fall down.
These ropes can then be climbed by repeatingly pressing the activate button.
Of course these rope arrows only work on objects were it doesnt bounce off.
It does take some time to get used to these rope arrows, but I do find it a nice feature.
The ropes dissapear after 2 days.
These items can be made at a forge.
There is also a npc that sells all of these new items among other weapons and tools that
come in handy for stealth users.
This new shop can be accesed by a teleport you get upon installing this mod.
By talking to the npc in this shop you can change many aspects of this mod.
However, all of these options can also be changed in the Mcm menu.
You might wish to use the sneak tools patch.
It adds some other options to gain these items more easily with the mcm menu and makes some
other small changes and improvements around sneak tools it's shop.
You can now acces the new shop from the second level of the thieves guild with this patch.
On default you will need to buy a teleport spell from the merchant in this new shop to
teleport back and forth first.
The Thieves guild requirement and actually adding the shop to the thieves guild makes
it somewhat more balanced than being able to acces the shop on a new game.
The second mod is Throwing Weapons lite.
Also a somewhat new mod.
There are many throwing weapon mods out there. This one will probably be the one I'll be
using from now on.
The throwing weapons included are very much what I was looking for.
this throwing weapon mod also seems very compatible with other mods.
All the weapons are added immersively to the world.
Meaning Npc's can also use these weapons and you will find these on your journeys rather
than buying or finding them at a specific place..
The damage of the following throwing weapons is based on your level in the one handed skill
and your amount of stamina.
A optional file in the download section makes it so that the damage is calculated by marksman
instead of onehanded.
Sneaking can improve the damage of these weapons to.
Some of these throwing weapons can be fully blocked with a shield or a ward.
There are 7 new throwing weapons included.
These show up as ammunition in your inventory and can only be equiped in your right hand.
All of these weapons weight something.
Throwing knives are the fastest, but do the least damage.
They make a medium distance when thrown and their weight is one.
These lightly stagger the enemy.
Throwing axes do the most damage, but are much slower to throw than knives are and their
distance traveled is shorter.
These stagger the opponent more than the knives did and weight 5
Javelins are thrown the furthest out of all the throwing weapons and do damage inbetween
that of the knives and axes.
These are very slow to throw, but stagger your opponent better than axes do.
Their weight is 9.
The next 4 items are grenade variations.
You will first have to find formula's from merchant's or as loot to be able to craft these.
You can make and find newly added oil pots, which function as molotov cocktails.
You can throw these lit oil bombs breaking them on impact.
This Leaves a burning pool of oil.
Their weight is 0.25
Frost poison grenades will freeze the enemy and do frost damage.
You can also buy a poison variation of this bomb, that can be applied to your weapon or arrows.
The weight of this frost poison and the grenades is 0.5
Then there are smoke bombs, also very suited for a stealth player character.
These bombs stagger your enemies making them blind.
Their weight is 1.
And finally you can make actual grenades.
These are very powerful and do high damage with a area of effect.
Anyone close enough will be knocked down by the explosion.
If you encounter someonee else throwing this at you, you can try and diffuse the bomb.
These grenades weight 0.5.
-Crashed by chickens-
This mod works excellent with Fnis, but doesn't necesarily need it to run.
Their weight might sound too much, but I actually like this idea.
This makes it so that these throwing weapons won't be your main weapon and you have to
retrieve them from fallen enemies.
I found that just having 3 of each weapons is enough to have with you on your adventures..
On a side note; this mod in inspired by the mod Throwing Weapons - Death From Afar.
Throwing weapons Lite could be seen as a simplified version of that mod.
Throwing Weapons - Death From Afar might be something to look into if you want a larger
variation, perks and many other features added to throwing weapons.
They can be used together.
Moving on I have 4 four weapon mods.
I'll be somewhat brief on the first 2 since I showcased them before in videos.
The first weapon is the Huntsman.
A customizable and very detailed bow that can be upgraded by using different parts found
throughout the world.
Upgrading the bow with parts you found makes the bow stronger with more benefits.
This Upgradeble feature makes the huntsman a excelent choice to have with you as a low level character
and a high level character..
You can also paint this bow in various colors if you wish to do so.
A high quality bow mod, that I've always been a fan of.
Another weapon mod I found suited for this showcase is the european greatsword.
This weapon might be a odd choice on first sight, but unlike other large weapons it does
more damage while sneaking.
What I also really like about this 2handed weapon is that it's range extends further
than that of most 2handed weapons.
You can have a normal design or a flamberd design.
I also chose two dagger mods, since daggers are of course very suited for stealth characters.
I chose these two based on their design.
The first one is the daggercraftpackage.
This dagger pack adds 6 new daggers to the game that can be crafted at the Skyforge.
These daggers look incredibly good.
Perfect daggers to stab someone or just to put up on display in your player home.
With almost 4000 endorsements, these are probably one of the better looking daggers you find.
The other dagger mod is the curse of sithis and dragonborn dagger.
This adds two daggers to the game.
The Dragonborn Dagger is craftable at any forge if you have the daedric smithing perk.
Its damage is slightly better than a daedric dagger.
The second dagger that comes with this mod is the Curse of Sithis, which is a slightly
Better Version of the Dragonborn dagger
You can find this dagger while you're doing the quest: Hail Sithis!
Moving on from weapons we take a quik look at 5 armors that I'll showcase briefly.
The regal assassin armor is a armor for both male and female.
This armor mod comes with a scarf, a hood and 6 different colors to choose from.
These look well on khajiits and argonians to.
The crimson ranger armor is one of my all time favorite armor and as of such a good
reason to include it here.
You can have a red or black version of this armor. This mod is also included in Immersive Weapons.
The Daedric Assassin armor also goes well for both male and females.
This armor does have a heavy variation if you like to use that instead.
I also chose 2 armors that I like and reveal a little bit more skin.
These are obviously meant for Female characters.
The Celes nightinale Armor is a very high quality armor for females with a lot of customization.
When I made my favorite armor video it was a hard pick between this armor and the Raven Witch Armor.
I eventually chose the Raven witch armor for my favorite armors video, but I'm more than
happy to give it a proper mention here.
The celes nightingale armor also comes with a custom crossbow and bow, along with proper bolts and
arrows that do poison damage.
The arrows, bolts, bow and crossbow are of course of very high quality much like it's armor.
If you prefer melee weapons this mod got you covered to, since it gives a nice looking
dagger and a somewhat larger melee weapon that goes well with the armor.
The merta assassin armor is another very high detailed armor set that also has a lot of customization.
Moving on I chose two home mods perfect for a sneaky character.
Blackfall estate is a small player home just outside of Riften.
Outside you find some gardening plots, a cooking place and a chopping block.
Inside you find yourself in a nicely decorated home with multiple beds for followers, a spous
or children you adopted.
On the main floor you also find a alchemy table and a enchanting table and more cooking
possibilities.
This home has a hidden basement that will lead you to a smithing area.
You find mannequins you can equip your armors on and there is a treasury with a statue of Nocturnal.
The basement area comes with a entrance to the inside of riften.
The other mod is The thieves guild hideout redone.
This is a combination of two mods that this author really liked for his thief character.
These two mods are made more compatible with eachother, with some improvements around both
of them.
One of the two mods included is the Thief's hideout ultimate.
This home mod is made by Ellianora.
You can expect a small seized player home with a lot of clutter and storage options,
a secret room, a shrine of nocturnal and some basic crafting tools like a smithing workstation
and a woodcutter's block.
The home is found in the second part of the thieves guild.
The other mod he included is the thieves guild redone by SenterPat.
This changes and improves the Thieves guilds layout.
When you just joined the thieves guld the place will start off poor,
filled with rats, dirt and empty bottles.
When you progress, the thieves guild will start looking better.
There is a new room in the cistern that will improve as you do quest.
It adds 2 new npc's you can trade your stolen goods with and it has some other neat functions
like locked boxes you can use to practice and train your lockpicking on.
Moving on I have two more Overhauls suited for thieves.
Nernie's thief pack adds new weapons, armor, gems, rings and necklaces for you to steal
inside homes and shops.
These are added dynamicaly/immersively, meaning that you will randomly find these in homes and shops.
Furthermore this mod changes the Canal District in Riften and the Grey Quarters in Windhelm.
There'l be some additional clutter in both districts.
You'l also find new shops, a new home for new npc's and a player home in both these
altered districts.
The same author also made a excellent range pack, that is worth looking into.
The other overhaul is Shenks thievery overhaul.
This adds stealthy ways of getting around the major cities.
These new ways include tunnels under the city's, and new paths on roofs.
Besides adding alternatives to get around the city, this mod adds guards to the more
wealthy shops and guard dogs to the less wealthy shops.
These can be found at night guarding the place..
This overhaul also adds npc's that go out stealing at night during certain days of the
month and much like nernies thief pack this adds a variation of newly placed items to
be found in shops and houses.
It even comes with 3 different type of arrows, some of them similair to what the arrows of
sneak tools offer.
Do keep in mind that Nernies thief pack and Shenks thievery overhaul can easily conflict
with many mods changing city's and it's interiors.
I didn't see any major conflicts using these 2 together though.
Next, I chose 4 assassin and thief based followers.
I went through the first 5 google pages it's 55 links and found 1 male follower other than
Inigo I found suited for this showcase.
The overpowered assassin follower is a male follower with a nice looking custom armor.
Like the name suggests this follower is quite overpowered.
He will use shouts while fighting and is equiped with a custom invisible overpowered sword
with a very interesting and fitting describtion.
He can in theory die, but uses healing spells to recover himself if he ever gets low on health.
He even has a custom voice.
If not a great follower for you, try to take him on.
You can find this follower at the Riverwood trader.
Ezia is a great looking female assassin.
One might recognize details of this armor from the assassins creed series.
The author of this mod is a huge fan of the assassins creed series and tried to recreate a female version of Ezio.
I think he did a great job doing so. He went as far making a hand drawn lip scar for this female follower.
Parts of his armor are made available by the Alfheim Robes and Alfheim Knights armor.
Ezia is essential, can be married and hangs around in the thieves guild.
Inigo is one of the best follower mods for skyrim.
If you havn't tried him out yet, you been missing out on one hell of a mod..
Inigo has 1000s of lines of top-notch dialogue that often refers to things you do or the
areas you're in.
You will surely have some amazing moments with Inigo with you on your adventures.
Inigo is a must have follower to many.
Combine Inigo with the other amazing follower Vilja and you will have additional 100s of
lines made specifically for the use of them together.
The are some serious quality follower mods.
I would go as far saying I've never seen a follower in any game behave more diverse and
keeps you entertained as long as Inigo and Vilja do.
If you don't like something about Inigo or Vilja there is a good chance you can talk
to them about it and change it.
There are multiple lenghty videos one could dedicate to Inigo or Vilja, which they deserve
and are out on youtube already.
We're moving on to the next follower.
Another follower I used for a while is Yuih.
This is a improvement and a follower version of the mod; female cicero.
I already gave it quik mentions before and think it goes well in this list to.
Yuih is found in Falkreath's dead mans drink.
To make this video a little more extensive I've added some more honorable mentions that
could be perfect for a stealthy character.
Complete alchemy and cooking overhaul makes you create more poisons, potions and even bombs.
It does a great many things, but many features function well for either a stealthy or assassin
based character.
Suspicious city guards is a small mod were guards get suspicious when you sneak around.
better stealing aims to make stealing better.
When you steal certain items, no longer will it be categorized as stolen when no one sees
you stealing this.
This allows you to sell the item to anyone.
This makes perfect sense to me for most items, but of course could be seen as a cheat mod.
No one's gonna report a stolen apple or describe it in such detail the next merchant will know
it was stolen.
Even less reasonable is not being able to sell the stolen apple in another city.
hidespots makes it so that many objects can now be used as hiding spots.
pickpocket everyone is a mod that allows you to pickpocket most creatures.
As example you can now pickpocket unaware Draugr.
The craftable horse bardings let you craft different saddles for your horse.
I figured a thief or assassin might need to get around quiker.
This mod requires a mod like Immersive horses to equip these saddles on your horse.
Craftable horse bardings and Immersive horses are by far my favorite mods for horses.
I also use the overhauled horses included with immersive horses.
Nightwielder Spire is a mod I already showcased.
This tower of shadows has some amazing spells that could be very suited for stealth characters
that use spell casting.
Beter stealth ai for followers aims to make the follower smarter in stealth.
The follower doesn't wear torches whilst in stealth and doesn't initiate combat until
you or the enemy has attacked.
Furthermore your follower will make much less comments whilst in sneak mode.
It's a mod I've always been using and works fine with any follower mods I've tried.
It also works fine with immersve amazing follower tweaks or amazing follower tweaks.
And finally I chose Sneakus Peekus.
A somewhat new mod.
This allows to put your back to a wall and peek around corners while in first person view.
To set up this mod you need to activate a power that you get upon installig Sneakus Peekus.
With this power can set up new keys to control this animation.
To lean up against a wall or object you need to get close and press the button you set
to activate this.
This mod has been added recently and I think it has great potential.
I do hope the mod gets some more recognition and perhaps more functionality.
I think it's a nice idea and might be something you wish to try if you're looking for a new
approach to things or simply want to do some roleplaying.
There are a ton of stealth based mods out there.
Without a doubt I missed one that you might consider essential for your stealthy character.
let me and others know in the comments if you like.
I hope this video gave some new ideas.
As always, a like, subscribe or comment is very much appreciated.
Consider endorsing the mods that you like to use on the Nexus to.
Thanks for watching everyone, have a great day and I'll cya all next time.

[3D PRINTED] Hand Spinner Genji's Shuriken - Duration: 3:25.
Hey !
A little bit of talking before the video begins, if you want to skip this, I'll put the timecode here
1:30 bro
So this is a new emission, that I simply named "Special Edition" (don't know if it really has the same sense in English tbh)
I choosed this title because first, I lack of imagination for that, and
because as you can see they are not "real shurikens", they are hand spinners
so they are not really "props"
And why a do I make a "new emission" ?
because the next prop is taking me a lot time to make
really, a lot of time, trust me
Spoiler alert, an image of the prop coming
So I'll be making these kind of short videos if the props are too long
So that you will know that I'm not dead
It will often be 3D printed stuffs because it's really quick for me to do that
Well, a new emission goes with a new opening, so let's go
So, lots of weeaboos among you asked me to make the Genji's Shurikens
So I didn't make them
Seriously, there are lots of great videos on youtube dealing with that, just look for them, they are great. Really.
So I think we're ready to make the hand spinners, this is easy and quick, don't worry
So I must say that I didn't make the 3D models
But the links are in the description of the video
If you don't have any 3D printer, just calm down, ask a friend, your family, or website on internet
Or just ask me and maybe I'll do it
maybe ...
To make to shuriken spin we'll need a ball bearing
You can find that on rollerblades, or internet, or hardware shops
Before printing, reshape your 3d model to be sure that the ball bearing fits just well
or else it won't work, obviously
And to be sure, that it stays, I used epoxy glue, but you can use super glue
be careful to put glue on the exterior edges
Once the printing is done you can sand it, and what I like to do is to gently rub some acetone with a cotton bud
and don't put too much acetone or it will disolve it
So yeah, here it is, we're almost done, just paint it
As I told you, it's a short video!
But if you're new to this channel, well you can subscribe, I have more consequent work, don't worry
So that's all for this video
And That's it for me guys, see you !
-------------------------------------------
The Stunning Transformation Of Ariel Winter - Duration: 5:23.
Growing up ain't easy.
And living in the media spotlight as you do it sounds near impossible.
Yet, actress Ariel Winter shows us that's not the case.
Even though she weathered some tough times in her personal life, Winter has handled it
all in stride.
So just how dramatic has her transformation really been?
You might be surprised to find out!
Pre-teen sensation
2009 was a big year for young Winter.
The then 11-year-old was not new to acting, with a small role on ER and voice-acting in
Disney's Phineas and Ferb.
But that year Winter's life changed big time with the successful premier of ABC's Modern
Family.
Winter plays Alex Dunphy, the wiser-than-her-years middle child of the family.
"Why do you guys always just assume I'm some depressed loser?
Did it ever occur to you that maybe I've been so distant because I've been busy with
my own life?"
In an interview for Blast Magazine, Winter described her new gig, saying, "It's really
exciting!
It's different.
It doesn't take that much time, everything is set, and everybody is like boom-boom-boom,
let's get this done right now.
It's really different than dramatic stuff where it's like, 'let's take this slow."
Star power
12-year-old Winter continued to make big waves in 2010.
As Modern Family's success continued, and Winter's spotlight in the media grew, the
young actress realized she could use her starpower to make a difference.
In thestarscoop.com, Winter chatted about her support of the green movement, saying,
"I conserve water, I unplug appliances when I'm not using them, and I use the three R's.
Renew, Recycle, and Reuse."
Winter also joined her Modern Family co-stars for the GLSEN's Safe Space anti-bullying campaign:
"Hi, I'm Ariel Winter from ABC's Modern Family."
Underage and under fire
Winter slayed on the Emmys' red carpet in September of 2011.
But headlines from MTV and HollywoodLife.com, claimed that her dress was too mature for
the 13-year-old actress.
But Winter took the high road, telling Us Weekly, "I thought [the dress] was very youthful,
yet mature because I have the flowers, and it's blush pink.
I have a sort of body in a way that you can't really put a dress like this on without it
looking older and more mature, so it's kind of not my fault!"
Drama at home
In November of 2012, news broke that the 14-year-old Winter had been removed from her mother's
care, due to accusations of physical and emotional abuse.
According to E! News, Winter's older sister, Shanelle Gray, petitioned to be Winter's guardian
due to their mother's "vile name calling and personal insults about [Winter and her weight]."
But even with this stress at home Winter continued on with her shooting schedule, maintaining
a professional vibe in front of the cameras.
"All is calm, all is bright."
That self-love life
After overcoming family drama in 2012, a 15-year-old Winter was ready for a "new year/new you."
In an interview with Teen Vogue, Winter said, "Because my mother wasn't supportive, now,
my sister is always making sure to tell me that I look beautiful."
After going full red-head, Winter's colorist, Ashlee Zakar, told NBC's Today, "Ariel is
young and fun, and the hair change is all due to her hiatus from Modern Family."
Zakar said that with Ariel's "porcelain skin [and] dark features," she wanted something
"more bright and fun."
"Like wow, I can't believe they're honoring us like this, where they're recognizing
our show.
We're only in our third season."
Feeling her look
At age 16, in 2014, Winter was coming into her own.
She told People, "I have more of an edgier style.
I'm not pink, ruffled, preppy.
I like the bodysuits.
I love the color black.
So the mature style and the more mature body goes with the age that I would like to be."
Discussing her body shape, Winter told the mag, "It's a blessing and a curse.
I have to find things that are appropriate to wear but also fit my body well, so it still
looks good."
Taking it down a notch
In 2015, 17-year-old Winter became officially emancipated, following years of family struggles.
She also elected to have breast reduction surgery, going from a size 32F to 34D.
"It was always super uncomfortable for me to sleep, it was uncomfortable to sit, it
was uncomfortable to walk, and I remember breaking down in dressing rooms because I
couldn't find a bathing suit, because they had no top that would fit me."
After her surgery she told Glamour, "I got it for myself.
I can't even really put into words how amazing it feels to really feel right."
She wowed at the Emmys that year in a bright red Romona Keveza dress.
Celebrity stylist Anita Patrickson told the International Business Times, "I'm trying
to get her away from being a teenager.
She's at that age where you're kind of grown-up, but also she's so young and fresh and gorgeous."
Show and tell
At the 2016 Screen Actors Guild Awards, Winter pulled out all the stops with another fabulous
Romona Keveza dress, which showed off the scars from her 2015 breast reduction surgery.
Winter tweeted, "Guys there is a reason I didn't make an effort to cover up my scars!
They are a part of me and I'm not ashamed of them at all."
Girl power?
Rocked.
No apologies
Today, the 19-year-old Winter is a pro at pushing the envelope.
Critics continue to put on the pressure, but Winter stays strong and true to herself.
"The people that love me and support me are what matter."
And she isn't afraid to tell it how it is.
After she was criticized for her dress choice in a graduation photo she posted on Instagram,
she fired back, posting on Twitter, "Dear sorry body-shamers, I looked HOT in that dress.
And if you hate it, don't buy it.
But please get a hobby."
Slay all day
In November 2016, Winter showed off a new, much shorter hairdo, looking fabulous as ever.
So, what's next for the star?
The talented and confident Winter is for sure a budding fashion icon with a heart of gold
— one who we'll definitely be keeping an eye on!

Everything You Need to Know About These Upcoming Sequels - Duration: 5:24.
Hollywood loves its sequels.
We're constantly bombarded with trailers, posters, and concept art for franchise films.
But there are quite a few Part-Twos in the works that have successfully stayed relatively
under the radar.
From Biblical epics to nineties nostalgia-fests, let's take a look at some of the sequels you
didn't know were being made.
Edge of Tomorrow 2
The Groundhog Day of alien invasion movies, 2014's Edge of Tomorrow is one of the best
sci-fi films in recent memory.
Starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt, this Doug Liman flick focuses on a cowardly major
who finds himself reliving the same day over and over.
Unfortunately, that day involves an army of extraterrestrials dead set on conquering Earth.
While the film earned rave reviews ...
"Have you ever felt this way before?"
… it was a major financial disappointment, so it didn't seem like the Edge of Tomorrow
story would live to see another day.
But according to original screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie, Cruise started pitching a sequel
while filming Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation.
Soon, the screenplay took shape and Blunt and Liman were on-board for part two.
Sadly, Bill Paxton was also set to return as the mustachioed Master Sergeant, but the
beloved actor passed away in February 2017.
Liman says the film will be a "sequel that's a prequel," that is "going to revolutionize
how people make sequels."
Whatever that all means, it sounds like it won't just be deja vu, all over again.
The Resurrection
With the success of Hacksaw Ridge, Mel Gibson is enjoying something of a comeback.
And his next big project is a throwback to his most successful film: 2004's The Passion
of the Christ.
Passion focused on the last hours of Jesus Christ's life as he endured torture after
torture before his death on a cross.
Despite the unusually gory take on the well-known tale, Passion became the highest-grossing
R-rated film in U.S. history.
In August 2016, Gibson announced he was working on a sequel, a "huge undertaking" called The
Resurrection, with Braveheart scribe Randall Wallace writing the screenplay.
In November, Gibson went on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and took a few questions
about the follow-up that he says is "likely still three years out."
"No, no bad guys?"
"Well, there are."
"Yeah?"
"They're in another realm."
"Oh."
As Colbert notes, the bible does suggest Jesus spent three days in hell, so it sounds like
Gibson might have the Messiah tangling with some literal demons.
2020 can't get here fast enough.
The Equalizer 2
In 40 years of acting on the silver screen Denzel Washington has never starred in a sequel.
But that's all about to change, as Washington is set to revive Robert McCall, the literature-loving
hit man from 2014's The Equalizer.
Officially announced in April 2015, The Equalizer 2 is getting the band back together.
Washington, director Antoine Fuqua, and screenwriter Richard Wenk are all back in action.
So why is Washington finally agreeing to a sequel?
Producer Todd Black says the Jason Bourne series inspired Denzel to finally take the
franchise plunge.
And he's not the only one on the project taking big risks.
Black says Fuqua has a new "effect" planned, which he can't talk about, but it's "frickin'
so cool you won't believe it."
Not even a hint, Dr. Evil?
"Throw me a frickin' bone here!"
Guess we'll have to wait, but it sounds "frickin'" amazing.
Look for The Equalizer 2 in 2018.
The Girl in the Spider's Web
David Fincher's 2011 adaptation of the Stieg Larsson novel The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
didn't earn enough to impress studio executives, so the next book in the series, The Girl Who
Played with Fire, never made it to the screen in the U.S.
However, in November 2015, it was announced that everybody's favorite hacker Lisbeth Salander
would finally return — only this time, Hollywood would adapt The Girl in the Spider's Web,
the latest novel in the Millennium series, written by David Lagercrantz after Larsson's
untimely death.
A year later, it was revealed that Spider's Web will be helmed by Fede Alvarez, the director
behind Don't Breathe and the 2013 Evil Dead reboot.
The studio also plans on recasting the lead role, and rumor has it the producers are considering
Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson, among others.
Spider's Web is scheduled to hit theaters October 2018.
The Rocketeers
Released in 1991 between Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and Terminator 2: Judgment Day,
the two highest-grossing movies of the year, The Rocketeer crashed and burned at the box
office.
killing Disney's hope of establishing an Indiana Jones-style franchise.
But over the years, this World War II-era adventure has picked up something of a cult
following, inspiring the studio to finally revisit The Rocketeer universe.
In July 2016, Disney finally announced The Rocketeers, a follow-up taking place about
six years after the events of the original film.
Our new Rocketeer — yet to be cast — is an African-American female pilot who finds
herself in the middle of some serious Cold War intrigue with an evil rocket scientist
trying to get his hands on the all-powerful jetpack.
Interestingly, the film is being co-produced by NBA star Blake Griffin, who must have a
thing for rocket packs, considering he sported one in that Gamefly spot …
"Do you guys have a bathroom?
Thank you!"
Hopefully he'll have a cameo.

BTS THEORIES: Spring Day - Duration: 19:55.
I told you a few times that I can't wait to analyse Spring Day
So here I am, recording this video! And it wasn't that easy
It was the opposite - very difficult
Because this MV was based on many texts and movies and everything
Frankly speaking, I'm thinking about recording another part of Spring Day analysis
Not based on obvious things,
but based on books that, in my opinion, CAN be related to Spring Day
Things I noticed and other books connected with Spring Day
If you are interested in such video, let me know in the comments and I hope that you will like this part as well!
In this part, I'm gonna talk about obvious things like Ursula Le Guin's story, The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas
You perfectly know that it's directly related to Spring Day
I'm also gonna talk about the choreography because it seems very meaningful
Also the movie No Vacancy
And of course I'm gonna talk about the Sewol ferry disaster
There are many, many theories. I hope you like it so... Here we go!
Spring Day is a really difficult MV to analyse
But it's also beautiful, artistic and has many hidden symbols
I know perfectly that there are as many theories as people
But I wanna focus on what we know
BTS in their videos and lyrics want to tell us about the passing youth
It's just a metaphore quite often
For example, Suga in 'FIRE' MV, jumping over the fence with YOUTH written on it
In the Japanese videos, we often see 'YOUTH IS NOT COMING BACK' written in many places
I want to focus on this type of interpretation, on this passing youth
I will share my point of view with you
I will tell you what I noticed and also give you some facts
What we see quite often in this MV, is the huge 'OMELAS' writing
It's from Ursula Le Guin's story
The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas
The story is really short, it has 6 pages so if you wanna look at Spring Day MV from this point of view, you definitely should read it
At first, I should tell you what Omelas really is
Omelas is a perfect place, an utopia
Everyone is happy, there is no discrimination, no social hierarchy
Everyone is happy, loving and loved
But there is a high price for this happiness
One child has to be locked in pain, dirt, suffering, with mental illness
People who live in Omelas get to know about this child when they're old enough
Usually between 8-12 years old
And what happens next... Of course, I have a perfect quote for you!
No matter how well the matter has been explained to them, these young spectators are always shocked and sickened at the sight.
They feel disgust, which they had thought themselves superior to
They feel anger, outrage, impotence, despite all the explanations.
They would like to do something for the child. But there is nothing they can do.
If the child were brought up into the sunlight out of that vile place,
if it were cleaned and fed and comforted,
but if it were done, in that day and hour all the prosperity and beauty and delight of Omelas would wither and be destroyed.
To exchange all the goodness and grace of every life in Omelas for that single, small improvement:
to throw away the happiness of thousands for the chance of the happiness of one:
that would be to let guilt within the walls indeed.
Sometimes those who know the truth never come back
They leave Omelas, they walk ahead into the darkness, and they do not come back.
The place they go towards is a place even less imaginable to most of us than the city of happiness.
I cannot describe it at all.
It is possible that it does not exist.
But they seem to know where they are going, the ones who walk away from Omelas.
If you watched the previous BTS THEORIES videos, especially since 'Blood Sweat & Tears'
then you know perfectly that I'm Hermann Hesse's Demian's maniac and that I love quotes!
In this case, I found many connections between Omelas and Demian
It's really incredible and I'm gonna tell you about it
Especially this particular quote
Walking away from Omelas makes me think about Sinclair from 'Demian'
He also, after getting to know the truth and the 'other' world, had gone away
If you want some quotes, I already gave all the possible quotes from 'Demian' in the previous videos,
And in this part, I will give you quotes from 'Omelas'!
There was no 'sin' in 'Demian', it didn't exist,
There was no good things and forbidden things
We have to know what's good and what's bad
Sometimes the 'bad' actions are right so we have to decide what we can and what we cannot do
Here, in Ursula Le Guin's story, there is also no 'SIN'
It's almost the same thing as in Demian
Again, I recommend you watching the previous vids for 'Demian' quotes
And now I'm gonna give you a few quotes from 'Omelas'
Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting.
This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain.
If you can't lick 'em, join 'em. If it hurts, repeat it.
Happiness is based on a just discrimination of what is necessary, what is neither necessary nor destructive, and what is destructive
One thing I know there is none of in Omelas is guilt
The quotes I just gave you is exactly the same thing I learned in Hermann Hesse's book
And it's absolutely amazing
We see that BTS sticks to one concept
One and only concept, they have a message
And they want to share it with us
Walking away from Omelas is related to not being able to accept this utopia and ideal world
There is no life without getting to know every single aspect of it, including a sin
This can be found in '1984' by George Orwell
The quotes from this book appeared in a BTS Begins video
And I talked about it when I was analysing Awake
So if you have no idea what quotes I'm talking about, check the video with 'Awake' analysis
But we can see that all those videos are perfectly related to each other and connected
But what does it have to do with 'Spring Day'?
Now I'm gonna tell you about it because there will be a lot
Spring Day has many threads, the main one is passing youth
the other one is 'You Never Walk Alone' which is also the tittle of this album
So we are never alone
Even if we grow up, we still have friends
Friendship is really binding
and BTS shows it very often, not only in the MVs but also in real life
The MV starts from V at the train station and we see a Korean writing 'IRYEONG'
in both ways - in hangul and also romanized
And, in spite of appearances, there is nothing strange about it
Because if you Google Iryeong, of course in hangul, all you find is a trains timetable from the Iryeong station
So even if we want to make something up here... We just can't
What's really important here is winter since the title is 'Spring Day'... So why?
Besides winter, the train also is really important
You can see it not only when V waits for it
but it's really meaningful throughout the MV
There is a reason for Rap Monster to change the carriages all the time
And his part of the song already gives us a huge hint
It's all winter here even in August
My heart is running on the time
alone on a Snowpiercer
A never-ending winter and Snowpiercer... What is Snowpiercer? I explain!
'Snowpiercer' is an English-French-South-Korean movie
directed by Bong Joon-ho
The story is about the collapse of the civilization and the end of human population
and also a sudden ice age created unintentionally in order to stop global warming
Snowpiercer was a globe-spanning train powered by a perpetual motion
with people who were able to survive
It travelled a circumnavigational track with an unknown destination
The society in Snowpiercer was seperated into 3 classes
The elite was living at the beginning of the train, in the first carrieges,
Workers who kept the engine working were living in the middle part of the train
and the last carriages were for poor people who were the last to get on the train
Of course, the social classes and power can be related to what I've already said a few times in the previous videos and what could be found in 'Demian'
We have to live according to someone else's expectations and accept the power
Maybe BTS wants to tell us that after you walk into the adulthood, the problems begin and you have to live up to someone else's expectations
We can also think about the fact that the train's destination is unknown
and it's the same with our own lives - we cannot know what will happen next and what the future brings
Also the one and only truck seems really important
It can symbolize the fact that we have a certain path in our lives but we can deflect from it and do something to change our future
But back to Rap Monster - walking along the train and changing the carriages all the time is directly related to the 'Snowpiercer' movie
Poor people were used by the rich ones and in order to rebel, they decided to capture the train, carriage after carriage
Maybe Rap Mon's wandering along the train symbolizes some kind of rebellion
and this rebellion is related to Omelas
The train trip will be 'walking away from Omelas'
and walking away from Omelas is connected with growing up
Rap Monster walking into another carriage and he sees a really carefree scene with the rest of BTS - there is joy, fun and happiness
The room seems a bit like a motel room
and I have to mention here that in this MV, Omelas is a motel
So if the scene takes place in a motel room, it means that it happened in Omelas
it happened when they were young so these are Rap Monster's memories
We see a scene on the stairs in sepia
It looks a bit like memories, like something that passed
Jin is downstairs and he makes a camera frame with his fingers
he creates new memories and BTS is going upstairs - it look like they're walking away from him
He is the oldest one, he grew up first and it was the reason for drifting apart
We see the Omelas motel and there is Suga and J-Hope right in front of it
and Rap Monster joins them
Jin, as the oldest one, left Omelas already
J-Hope and Suga were the next ones to leave Omelas
Rap Monster is a bit younger than them so he will be the next one to leave Omelas
Even though the four of them left Omelas, we still have 3 members left - Jimin, V and Jungkook
We see Jungkook alone in the train
The truth is - he is the youngest one and we can see it clearly in Spring Day
The carousel is the best example
Jungkook stands in the middle and doesn't move and the rest of BTS move really fast next to him, like they're walking away, drifting away
but he finally joins them
We can see 'You never walk alone' written on the carousel
It gives us again the thought that even if we grow up, we are never alone
we have our friends and we always will
Coming back again to the motel Omelas
We have a neon 'NO VACANCY' in front of it
Many people noticed that it's related to the movie 'No Vacancy'
Especially because the movie is about 7 friends
they go for a trip and stay in a motel
So it does make sense
I watched this movie, I already told you about it... But I watched only half of it
I still can't force myself to watch it because it was just... Disgusting
I didn't notice anything related to BTS in this movie
just the fact that there were 7 friends and they stayed in a motel
If there is anyone who watched it till the end, please tell me in the comments if there is anything else related to BTS
The important thing is just the title - no vacancy
and it makes sense because it's a motel
I was thinking about the connection between this movie and BTS theories and Spring Day MV
and I couldn't find any solution
and suddenly, in the middle of the night, I came up with the brilliant idea
In my opinion, the movie has nothing to do with the BTS Theory
It's only about the fact that there are no empty rooms in Omelas, no vacancy
BTS grew up and they walked away from Omelas
They possibly sinned, got to know the truth and the 'other' world
They can't go back, there is no place for them in Omelas
There is a scene in a laundry room and the laundry can symbolize a new beginning
Leaving the dirt behind us and a new, clean beginning
What's really interesting, we see mountains there and in Ursula Le Guin's story...
Far off to the north and west the mountains stood up half encircling Omelas on her bay.
So, in my opinion, it's directly related to the story
We have, as always, two ways of interpretation the fact that we see Jin against the background of mountains
First of all, Omelas was surrounded by mountains. It wasn't Omelas but what was AROUND Omelas
Jin was the first one to walk away from Omelas - so he just left
Second of all - this idea hit me like a wrecking ball
Those mountains symbolize Omelas
Jin always seemed different, he was aloof
so maybe he chose the ideal world and he stayed in Omelas
And the proof for that would be the scenes from Blood Sweat & Tears and Awake
he threw away the apple - the symbol of sin
The mountain of laundry scene is very controversial
and many people believe in the theory that it's related to the Sewol ferry disaster
Houndreds of Korean students died and the crew survived
In this theory, the laundry symbolize those students
It makes sense especially when we see it against the background of clouds and it looks like water or the sea
And it makes sense if we relate it to the Snowpiercer movie where the elite had power
The ferry crew told the students to stay in their places and that's why they died
However, Rap Monster never said that this theory was real - he only said that there are many interpretations and it depends on us how we analyse it
I suggest you to read the lyrics
Is it you who changed or is it me?
I hate this moment, this time flowing
But we changed, you know? Just like everyone
As you can see, those lyrics tell us that as time goes by, people change. Sometimes they change so much they cannot recognise themselves

False Facts About The Wild West You Always Thought Were True - Duration: 4:43.
There's a lot of myths about the Old West out there in the wild, and we're here to run
'em down, tie 'em up, and leave 'em on the train tracks.
Here are some false facts about the Wild West you always thought were true.
Pardner.
Not-so-savage natives
You'd be forgiven for thinking that those who settled the untamed American West lived
in constant fear of Native Americans.
Just pop in any famous Western, sit back, and watch the arrows fly…
"Ahhhh!"
The truth is, however, that the Native Americans weren't as hostile to those covered wagon
travelers as most people believe.
While some violent altercations naturally took place, convoys of covered wagons rarely
came under attack.
Only stragglers ran any real risk, as lone wagons or small groups represented much easier
pickings.
In reality, many friendly tribes saw groups of settlers as prime trade opportunities.
Ultimately, the threat from Indian attack was minimal at best.
Along the busiest trails West, Native Americans killed—on record—362 emigrants between
1840 and 1860.
Compare that to the upward of 30,000 total emigrants who died from all causes during
the same 20-year span.
Truth be told, more Native Americans died at the hands of settlers in that span than
vice versa, at 426 total recorded deaths.
All that glitters
Everyone thinks California hosted America's first gold rush in 1849, and for good reason:
there's the San Francisco '49ers, plus it's even nicknamed "The Golden State."
But that nugget of wisdom is fool's gold: California wasn't home to the first gold rush
— it wasn't even the second.
Fifty years before some gold nuggets at a California mill triggered the largest mass
migration in US history, a 17-pound chunk of the precious metal was discovered in North
Carolina, leading to a flood of more than 30,000 prospectors to the Tar Heel state.
The great state of Georgia holds claim to America's second gold rush in 1829.
The Georgia Journal printed the following notice in August ... cue the music!
"GOLD!
A gentleman of the first respectability in Habersham county, writes us thus:
'Two gold mines have just been discovered in this county,and preparations are making to bring these
hidden treasures of the earth to use.'"
[Throat-clearing sound from VO talent.]
Only a few months later, northern Georgia was overrun by those hopeful of striking it
rich — twenty years before California and its famous '49ers.
White lie
The stereotypical image of cowboys as a white, distinctly American invention is just plain
false.
The deepest roots of the popular cowboy date back to the arrival of the Spanish in Mexico.
As ranches spread across modern-day Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, so too did trained
ranchers — called vaqueros — who earned the title of America's first cowboys.
And while decades of film and television have conditioned us to incorrectly think that most
cowboys at the time were white, one in four 19th-century cowboys in the state of Texas,
for example, were black, and even more were Mexican … making white cowboys in the state
a minority.
Sorry to break it to you, Mongo, but the prevalence of your people is kind of historically inaccurate
…
Don't bank on it
According to popular belief, it would have been safer to keep your money buried under
a cactus in the Old West than in a bank, which was robbed by roving bandits on an almost
daily basis.
In reality, banks at the time were very safe spaces to keep your valuables — perhaps
even safer than banks today.
According to the Foundation for Economic Freedom, there were fewer than ten confirmed bank robberies
total from 1859 to 1900.
That's one heist every four years, on average.
Hardly an epidemic.
In 1974, one historian even claimed the Old West "was a far more civilized, more peaceful
and safer place than American society today," as violence and theft was not so culturally
ingrained as popular history leads us to believe.
Jumping the gun
According to almost every Western ever, the average town had more guns than a well-stocked
Walmart in Tennessee.
Would you believe that the Old West had stricter gun laws than many states today?
It's true: property-owners and ranchers all over called for tight restrictions on firearms,
with the knowledge that more guns — in the wrong hands — meant more problems.
"You want that gun?
Pick it up."
"I wish you would."
In fact, "frontier towns — places like Tombstone, Deadwood, and Dodge — had the most restrictive
gun control laws in the nation," laws that would make 21st century second-amendment advocates
weep.
In many places, cowboys weren't even allowed to carry guns, as they were told that carrying
around a six-shooter was not a necessary part of their jobs.
The Kansas newspaper the Caldwell Commercial called revolvers "a relic of barbarism."

The Disturbing Untold Truth Of Erin Andrews - Duration: 7:03.
Sideline reporter Erin Andrews has been in front of the camera in one form or another
for over 15 years.
She grew up watching Boston Celtics games in Florida with her dad before she became
a Gator at the University of Florida, studying telecommunications.
These days, she's the go-to reporter for Fox NFL, recently commanding the sidelines of
Super Bowl 51.
But the 38-year-old has received flack from both sides of the aisle.
Men make lewd comments at her off camera during telecasts and women think she only got her
job because she's tall, blonde, and beautiful.
But there's more to her than meets the eye.
While Andrews' career is marked by hard work, it's also littered with bizarre scandals,
some serious dancing, and a whole lot of salty people.
This is the full picture of Erin Andrews.
Early inspirations
Andrews' father Steven is a six-time Emmy-winning investigative reporter out of Tampa, Florida
for its NBC affiliate.
His love of sports and his chosen profession laid a clear path of influence on his daughter,
who spent most of her young life in the Sunshine State.
Her father watches every game she covers.
On social media and in the news and in the comments sections of websites, people are
quick to say that Andrews' looks are what got her the job as a sideline reporter, as
well as a gig as a judge on Dancing with the Stars.
In truth, dance and sports have always been a part of Andrews' life, since she was a child.
But no better evidence of this exists than this clip of Andrews at her alma mater, University
of Florida, dancing with the Gator basketball dance team.
A wellspring of school spirit, Andrews was a member of the sorority Zeta Tau Alpha and
danced with the Dazzlers for several years.
So, Erin Andrews was pretty much destined for the career she has now.
The peeping trial
In 2008, Erin Andrews was filmed nude — without her consent — through a peephole inside
a Nashville, Tennessee, Marriott hotel next to Vanderbilt University.
To Andrews' horror, the video was leaked online, giving anybody with an Internet connection
access.
The former Illinois insurance salesman who filmed Andrews, Michael David Barrett, first
tried to sell the video to TMZ, who declined — but later uploaded the tape to the Internet.
Barrett was caught in 2010, when TMZ provided authorities with the email address he used
when first trying to shill the tape to the celebrity site.
Barrett plead guilty and was sentenced to 30 months in prison.
Meanwhile, Andrews was awarded $55 million in damages — $26 million of which came from
Marriott affiliates.
While the sum of the settlement is massive, the damage on Andrews' psyche is significant,
too.
She speaks about the incident often, or is made to in interviews.
During the trial she was visibly shaken, saying, "Every time I check into a hotel room, I fear
he is in the closet, and every time I go home, I fear he is waiting for me.
I fear for my life."
The aftermath
Fame, or more accurately the spotlight, is something Andrews has actively pursued since
she was a child.
But when something traumatic happens, like the 2008 peeping scandal, fame can exacerbate
already difficult situations.
Her trial was widely covered, so she's discussed the incident numerous times on various outlets.
It's now an inescapable part of Andrews' public history, which is unfortunate.
What's worse is that ESPN required Andrews to discuss the incident before she was allowed
to return to work and the Marriott's lawyers forced Andrews to answer questions regarding
whether or not the scandal benefitted her career.
One of the lawyers for the Nashville Marriott asked Andrews if the roughly 16 million views
her leaked nude video received propelled her career in any way — whether or not her livelihood
"thrived" because of her new-found visibility.
That's definitely a case of adding insult to injury.
Sexism in sports
Sexism in sports is nothing new.
And for Andrews, who covers men's professional football, the storm of derogatory comments
from people on Twitter from fans catcalling from the stands is excessive, to say the least.
Andrews has been vocal about sexism she's faced in the sports world.
During the peep-hole video trial, Andrews referenced a more insidious form of discrimination,
saying, "Probably for like three months, everybody thought it [the video] was a publicity stunt.
To Fox News and CBS, everybody put up that I was doing it for publicity and attention,
and that ripped me apart."
Reebok controversy
Andrews received harsh criticism when, after the New Years 2011 Rose Bowl championship
college football game, she said on ESPN that the players were slipping in their Nike cleats.
On its surface the comment appeared fairly innocent — the type of quip that can be
heard regularly during the down time of a publicized sporting event.
Two weeks after the game, however, it was reported by The Oregonian that Andrews had
signed an endorsement deal with Nike's top competitor, Reebok, creating what many believed
to be a journalistic conflict of interest.
Talk about putting your foot in your mouth...
Snakes on a plane
In 2011, ESPN's senior vice president for content, development, and enterprise, Keith
Clinkscales, filed a preemptive lawsuit against Joan Lynch, an ESPN executive producer whom
Clinkscales fired.
Clinkscales was asked by a Deadspin writer to respond to allegations that he enjoyed
some solo-pants fun — on a work flight while sitting next to, you guessed it, Erin Andrews.
Deadspin never named their source for the accusation, but Clinkscales, likely in an
effort to get out in front of the story, assumed the source was his ESPN rival Joan Lynch.
Deadspin's account of what happened was that "Andrews saw Clinkscales [fondling himself]
in his seat, beneath his iPad.
When he realized he had been caught…
Clinkscales panicked and muttered, 'You know, I'm one of your bosses.'"
Clinkscales denied the account but ultimately left the company one month before the allegations
arose, and Andrews, scarred from her experience with the leaked video, never formally accused
her coworker of the act.
Cancer
Andrews has said many times that the key to her success has been good old fashioned hard
work.
From her early days as a freelance reporter to her flourishing career as a sideline reporter
for the NFL, Andrews does her homework across various sports and appears to genuinely love
her job.
That said, it took many people by surprise to discover that, in September of 2016, Andrews
was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer, but didn't miss a single game that year.
She opted not to tell any of her colleagues about the diagnosis, and two days after her
first surgery on October 11, Andrews was on a plane to Green Bay to conduct an interview
with Packers wide out Jordy Nelson.
She said at the time, "Should I have been standing for a full game five days after surgery?
Let's just say the doctor didn't recommend that.
But just as I felt during my trial, sports were my escape.
I needed to be with my crew."
By November, Andrews got the news that she would not need radiation or chemotherapy.
The whole ordeal is a testament to Andrews' determination.
