I found this Variety article from 2004, and it reminded me of something important. Buffalonickel Films is not a new idea. It is not something I invented because AI suddenly made filmmaking accessible. It was already my path more than twenty years ago: original science fiction, independent production, and stories built outside the safest lanes of the entertainment business. What changed was not the ambition. What changed was the access. For decades, Hollywood controlled the means of production. A creator could have the story, the vision, the characters, and the will to build something, but still be stopped by the machinery of permission. AI has changed that. It does not make the artist. It does not replace taste. It does not create authorship out of nothing. But it does return power to the storyteller who already had something to say. That is why this moment matters so much to me. I am not starting over. I am picking up where I left off. The same company. The same creative instinct. The same interest in outer space, human meaning, and independent storytelling. Only now, the tools finally match the ambition. Buffalonickel Films was real in 2004. It is realer than real now. And this time, I don’t need permission to keep going.

Instagram is no longer rewarding aggregators. Sounds a lot like what they are doing on X.

GM ☀️🙌 | Encounters: Field Notes Fragments from the latent space. Not all became part of the final body of work, but some still carried a strange charge. Sharing a few here.

I am 100% behind Devin Booker here. Last night was not a good look for our league. Let me be clear, we didn’t lose because of officiating, but that doesn’t make last night any less important. If the referees are going to demand respect from the players - as they should - then the players should demand respect from the referees. When a referee is missing calls and clearly disrespecting the players, almost mocking them, they must be held accountable. Nobody who loves this game enjoyed watching that last night. They want to see the players compete at the highest level. The league needs be far more aggressive about this kind of thing. All players and all fans deserve it.
CantGuardBook@CGBBURNER

Devin Booker WENT OFF in his postgame interview about the officiating in tonight’s game vs OKC: "It's definitely something that has to be looked into. I heard Caruso tell them to call the tech and he ended up doing it. In my 11 years, I haven't called a ref out by name, but James [Williams] was terrible tonight, through and through. It's bad for the sport, bad for the integrity of the sport. People are going to start viewing this as the WWE if they're not held responsible." "I know I haven't won a championship in this league but I have been in it for 11 years now, so to get to this point to be treated like that, for me to even be saying something out loud... It's bad. "It's my first time in 11 years but it's needed. Whatever, I get fined for it, everybody can pull the clips and see where the frustration comes from."

@Variety If anyone’s looking for some Albert Schweitzer meets Captain America type of AI filmmaker to make a sequel to “The Net”, let’s talk.

Sandra Bullock says we have to make AI "our friend" and "lean into it": "It’s here. We have to observe it. We have to understand it. We have to lean into it. We have to use it in a really constructive and creative way, make it our friend rather than — I mean, we have to be incredibly cautious and aware of it because there are people who will use it for evil and not good. But I do feel that there’s a place for it… it’s here. We have to just be friends in some dark way." (via CNBC) variety.com/2026/film/news…

We visited the set of Doug Liman's $70 million AI-made movie 'Bitcoin: Killing Satoshi.' - It stars Casey Affleck, Gal Gadot, Pete Davidson and Isla Fisher - AI is being used to fill in the backgrounds, sets and even lighting - There were traditional wardrobe and props departments, and production employed 107 cast members, 100 shoot crew and 54 non-shoot crew - Producers say the film would have cost $300 million if made traditionally Much more — including photos — in our exclusive set visit: thewrap.com/creative-conte…

Good morning, fam. I want everyone to go put on “Ether” by Nas, turn it up real loud, and treat yourself to the best thing on X today.

I saw this quote and immediately laughed my ass off. Hannah Einbinder, @HannahEinbinder whose name on Twitter is her character on the single show she has been on, threatened to flush people's heads in toilets at the SAG Awards and somehow expected to be taken seriously. This is where we are. This is a self-righteous, uninteresting narcissist whose entire career consists of performing emotions written by other people, in a show carried entirely by Jean Smart, wearing clothes picked by a stylist, at an event where she is a background character in her own industry. And THIS person has appointed herself the guardian of authentic human creativity. Remarkable. She is, without debate, the least interesting character in Hacks. In a show built around one of the greatest comedic performers alive, Hannah Einbinder is the dead weight the writing staff is contractually obligated to service. She is the part you skip. She is the load-bearing nothing that exists so Jean Smart has someone to be more interesting than. That is her legacy. Her stand-up special is one unbroken hour of a narcissist methodically explaining why she deserves your attention. It is the most self-aggrandizing, self-absorbed piece of work to come out of Hollywood in recent memory, which is an extremely competitive category. And then she stood at a microphone and said "No one likes you. You are a loser. You will never be cool." That's not a critique. That's a cry for help from someone who has spent her entire career being the least compelling person in every room she's ever walked into, finally given a microphone and nothing interesting to say with it. The AI conversation is legitimate. She is not.
