Stop motion animation in the style of King Kong (1933) was rejected because of the time it would take and the subsequent cost. Also, according to special effects director, Eiji Tsuburaya, there was simply no one in Japan who was skilled and experienced in doing that kind of stop motion animation.

Dem Medienredakteur Harald Staun, Jg. 1970, ist in der jüngsten FAS ein veritables Kunststück gelungen. Mit nur 21 Zeilen Text, versteckt in der Gossip-Rubrik „Die lieben Kollegen“ am unteren Rand der Seite 41, verscherzte er es sich mit Deutschlands #Online-Journalisten. Und zwar gründlich.

Do you favor manors and mansions or studios and bungalows? Whatever your preferred housing style is, this graphic will help you look in the right place. The map displays the median number of rooms in housing units for each county. The five highest and lowest medians are listed. For reference, the median for the entire U.S. is 5.5 rooms.
The darker areas tend to have roomier housing units. These include parts of the Mid-Atlantic, the Midwest, and Central Plains. The latter may be due to large farmhouses. There are also specific hotspots in some states (e.g., Utah, Georgia, and Tennessee) that have higher medians. Of the 25 counties with medians of at least seven rooms, eight are in Virginia, four are in Maryland, and three are in Utah. No other state has more than two.
On the other end of the spectrum, smaller housing units with fewer rooms are primarily found in Alaska. There are 15 counties with medians of less than four; ten are in Alaska, two in New York, and one each in Texas, Arizona, and Hawaii.
The violin plot shows the distribution of numbers of rooms using percentages of housing units in each county with one, two, three…all the way up to nine or more rooms. The dots in the bars are the medians. So in a typical U.S. county, approximately 2.5% of housing units have only one or two rooms. Close to a quarter (22.8%) have five rooms, and just under a fifth (19.7%) have six rooms. The roomiest housing units (with at least nine rooms) account for 9.2% of homes.
Keep in mind that bathrooms are not counted in these data. For those interested in the definition of a room (from https://ask.census.gov/faq.php?id=5000&faqId=7433):
“When counting the number of rooms in a home for the American Community Survey (ACS), please count rooms separated by built-in archways or walls that extend out at least 6 inches and go from floor to ceiling. Include only whole rooms used for living purposes, such as living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, finished recreation rooms, family rooms, enclosed porches suitable for year-round use, etc.
DO NOT count bathrooms, kitchenettes, strip or pullman kitchens, utility rooms, foyers, halls, open porches, balconies, unfinished attics, unfinished basements, or other unfinished space used for storage.”

According to Animation Director Rob Coleman, not a single clone trooper suit was ever built. Every single clone trooper seen in the film is computer generated, with motion capture performed by ILM employees, wearing only the helmet and sometimes the footwear of the suit. The rest is complete CG.

Exploring Europe’s Oldest Running Cinemas on Instagram
To see more photos and videos from Europe’s oldest cinemas, explore the Etoile Pagode, Kino International and Cameo Cinema location pages. For a glimpse into cinemas across the world, browse the #cinematreasures hashtag.
Founded in 1911, the Oxford Picture Palace (as it was then known) has been closed, reopened, refurbished and renamed many times in its long and enduring history. Like many of the oldest running cinemas in Europe, the staying power of the Ultimate Picture Palace stands as a testament to our love for film.
Whether it’s Berlin’s modernist Kino International—built in the 1960s, hosting premieres until the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989 and now home to the Berlinale Film Festival—or Edinburgh’s 1914-built Cameo (@thecameocinema) with its terrazzo floor and original ticket kiosks, some of Europe’s oldest cinemas are filled with undoubtable charm.
Over the last three years, Instagrammers across Europe have been capturing these great veterans of the celluloid medium. With their help, we put together a list of some favorites to explore:

"This incident highlights how location metadata - contrary to NSA defenders' claims that such data isn't sensitive - is incredibly powerful, especially in bulk, and can easily be used by governments to identify and suppress protesters attempting to exercise their right to free expression"
