Finally saw NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE last night and was totally charmed by it. Hilarious, sweet, and clearly required a baffling level of planning and clever use of old footage. A delight.

@philiplord “Portrait of Nerds”

Manifest your dreams

We mentioned in two interviews that Nerds Gummy Clusters are the best treat to have at the movies and the good people at Nerds just sent us this portrait of @philiplord and me made out of Nerds candies! 👀

Kudos to the talented craftspeople behind Spider-Noir on their well-deserved 11 Emmy noms!

The easiest way for journalists to get to the bottom of the “is Mitch McConnell dead” question, is to just ask Trump directly: “so they don’t want you to know and are keeping you out of the loop about it?” And that narcissistic gossip will immediately say “no I know he’s been brain dead for three weeks and they’re keeping him on a ventilator so they can avoid a special election and he looks like a mummy I was the first to know” he can’t help himself

Happy PHM Streaming Day to all who celebrate

@hellb4ts @projecthailmary Wow!

and it’s done! worse pain for a tattoo placement but sooo worth it 🫶 @projecthailmary if you saw this it would make my day!

Warning: animation wonk post ahead… In animation, camera placement/movement and much of cinematography is traditionally handled by a department called Layout. The title comes from the old Disney days when they would lay out the 2D backgrounds and the characters/props in the transition from storyboards to final shots. But in the world of CG animation, the term is confusing. The job is analogous to a live-action camera department: you’re picking lenses, designing shots in a virtual space. Many talented young tech-savvy filmmakers or cinematographers might like the opportunity to work on the camera team of an animated film and get experience telling story with camera, but don’t even know the job exists - and the term “Layout” isn’t helping: it sounds like you’re doing spreadsheets or something, not essential creative work. Because of this, on Spider-Verse, we have changed the name to the Camera Department. I encourage other films and studios to do the same. It’s more respectful of the talented people who do this work and lets them say to their friends that they’re part of the camera team on a movie rather than the layout team, which means nothing to an outsider.

Fun holiday weekend activity!

@chrizmillr @philiplord what's the aspect ratio on the PHM 4K Blu-Ray disc?

If only there were a word to describe the persistent, intense preoccupied feeling audiences have about seeing the film OBSESSION

@marvel_updat3s Not even close

Feeling cautiously hopeful for cinema and the future of original filmmaking

Just finished Spider-Noir and it delivered on everything I wanted this series to be. The maturity of an older & grizzled Spidey, mixed with the dynamic performance of Nicolas Cage, topped off dazzling visuals & an engaging story. Sony struck gold, and I want to see even more! 🕷️

Check out this treasure of a film by the talented, creative, and sweet Ambriz Brothers… both because it’s delightful and also because when original voices succeed, we get more cool and interesting stuff to watch, so we all win.

3 things we at Lord Miller worked on are all now out at the same time. Project Hail Mary The Sheep Detectives Spider-Noir That’s 10 hours of Certified Fresh entertainment that can theoretically be enjoyed all in one day!

@jagster7985 A little intense for 9. There is murder, stabbing, shooting, blood, mobster stuff. Some bad language. I’d say 13+?

@chrizmillr My 9 yo daughter and I adore the Spider-Verse films (saw Across 3 times together in the theater!), but where does this live action Spidey Noir fall as far as being ok for her age range in your opinion???

All 8 episodes of SPIDER-NOIR are now on Prime Video. It’s bold, beautifully shot, somehow both fun and moody, with an insanely great cast anchored by an all-time weird and wonderful performance by Nicolas Cage. It’s unlike everything else on TV. You’ll dig it. Check it out!
