You don't have to love all of these movies, but you do have to understand that a studio that makes Sinners and One Battle and Mickey 17 and Wuthering Heights and The Bride and Weapons grasps its responsibility to filmmaking and its own history and tradition in a way that David Ellison does not.
I saw The Bride! tonight--wildly audacious and accomplished, and in fascinating dialogue with monster movies, musicals, and Bonnie and Clyde. Jessie Buckley is beyond-belief great. Huge swings like this & Wuthering Heights are why we need studios--it takes real $$ and support of vision to make them.
To other film festivals out there, especially those of you that regularly platform films from the major studios. Now seems like a great time to NOT DO THAT. If three total companies are going to own the world we all have a responsibility to work harder than ever to discover and platform new voices.
The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.
If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?
bitch it's March?
Post See new posts Conversation Laura Rozen @lrozen · 2h From US admin official background briefing recording listening to, seriously question if US negotiators understood what Iranians were proposing. One official keeps saying acronym for “IAEA” wrong. They seem astonished Iran would not agree to the US supplying them nuclear fuel Laura Rozen @lrozen · 2h They took as suspicious proposals that Iran saw as concessionary. Laura Rozen @lrozen · 2h Explains why Oman FM tried to come to DC to explain what US negotiators may not have fully understood Laura Rozen @lrozen Am not saying what Iran proposed would have been enough, I dont know, but it seems US negotiators did not have the expert guidance to understand it correctly
On top of all the reporting that this war of aggression was planned well in advance, it seems that the reporting also indicates that the US political leadership are quite literally too stupid to understand basic diplomacy. I mean literally not smart enough.
I rewatched it last spring and it is such a complex work. It also came out the same year as WAR OF THE WORLDS which is wild and so interesting to me in the bigger context of Spielberg’s filmography.
Someone is doing a reboot in heaven 💔
This… Today was a sad day. What an absolute bummer of a time.
Go Michael, go!!
Chainsaw Awards writer/director Michael Varrati is keeping busy with FOUR SEASONS OF FEAR, a new comics anthology from Stacked Deck Press.
Billionaire Peter Thiel says that America is similar to the Weimar Republic "Liberalism has exhausted itself... Democracy, whatever it may be, has exhausted itself... Therefore, we need to start talking far beyond the Overton window."
Talking openly about this in public too, so I think it’s time to ask ourselves what we collectively want to do in response to a billionaire class that is not embarrassed about declaring themselves kings.
We are disturbed

A photo of Frodo speaking with Gandalf in the Mines of Moria: "I wish it had not happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But the Dow is over 50,000."
Tell me you live in the northeast without telling me you live in the northeast… 🤣
Elmo @elmo · 1h That Bunny was AMAZING. Elmo thinks he should be called Good Bunny! Elmo loves you, Mr. Good Bunny! ❤️🎶🐰 Based Yankee @thebasedyankee You and Bad Bunny should be deported
It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."
There's exactly one normal man left on planet Earth.
Atomic Blonde and Promising Young Woman are two of my personal faves! (Always obsessed with The Guest as well 🩷)

👇🎯 Not once has the national media asked a GOP politician about affording ICE the way Biden/the Dems were asked about the cost of
student loan debt relief & literally everything else for the last 50 years.
Totally!!
This weekend I did a double feature of THE BONE TEMPLE and SEND HELP and I have no one to talk about such things with here in PA! 😫
Well…no one but this guy.
I went today (and caught the cameo 😉)!

For Liam.
Every writer I know, every artist I follow, is in the fucking trenches trying to survive this shit. GenAI is not the future because if it keeps going there is no future, and even if it was that would be no excuse.
