Shyam Madiraju directs this drama starring Ethan Peck and Nate
Parker. After their plane crashes in the Pacific Ocean, the
surviving members of a US football team find themselves stranded on
a deserted island with limited resources and little hope of rescue.
With supplies quickly running out, teammates Andreas (Peck) and
Slim (Parker) begin to turn on each other after disagreeing on how
to ration their dwindling resources. With the increasingly
unbalanced Andreas forming his own faction and taking them to
another nearby island, Slim is left to try and hold the remaining
survivors together while also trying to protect them from Andreas
and his group's violent behaviour. The cast also includes Jessica
Lowndes, James Remar and Diego Boneta.

Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson reunite for this sixth instalment in
the 'Fast and Furious' action thriller franchise, directed by
Justin Lin. After their lucrative Rio heist, and unable to return
home, Dom (Diesel) and the rest of his compatriots are forced to
kill time lying low in different locations around the world. When
DSS agent Hobbs offers Dom and his crew full pardons in return for
taking down Owen Shaw (Luke Evans)'s gang of mercenary drivers, the
offer seems too good to pass. But as the rivals head for a showdown
on the streets of London, Dom learns that Shaw's second-in-command
is none other than his presumed dead former lover, Letty (Michelle
Rodriguez).
Crosslinguistically, motion verbs are used to describe stationary
scenes. Sentences such as 'The road runs through the valley' and
'The mountain range goes from Canada to Mexico' include a motion
verb but express no explicit motion or state change. Such sentences
involve a motion evoked in the mind of the conceptualizer, which is
called subjective motion, fictive motion, or abstract motion. This
book aims to investigate these motion expressions in English
employing the term of subjective motion. It provides both
similarities and differences between objective physical motion and
subjective motion establishing grounds for accepting the validity
of the subjective motion account. Also, the characteristics of
subjective motion in English are analyzed in light of Path, Manner,
and language-specific features. It is not trivial nor random that
motion verbs are systematically used to describe stationary scenes.
Although a lot more work is needed before definitive conclusions
can be drawn, this preliminary exploration demonstrates possible
complexities of subjective motion constructions.
