@creator_grimm I love going to the movies. I love watching with a roomful of strangers (or two strangers in a matinee of an obscure movie— even better). Or with an old friend, or a new friend… watching at home isn’t the same.

OK. So most of you hardly ever go to movies anymore, according to my extremely scientific poll.
Why? Why don’t you go to movies anymore?

A small story about William Friedkin (may take a moment): I had the privilege to sit all day by the side of the master as he shot The Caine Mutiny. Day after day diring the shoot and a couple of times in preproduction. From call to wrap…

This week a financier exercised their option on a screenplay I wrote in 2008. I no longer own it.
While I don't know if it will get made, it is already the most bizarre journey of anything I have written.
Let me tell you about it. 🧵👇

@offbeatorbit This aligns perfectly with his IMDb bio.

Everyone go to Christopher Meloni’s Instagram right now

I am an old, so I would very much appreciate an explainer on this Grimace shake TikTok phenomenon that I personally cannot stop laughing about.

the grimace shake is causing irreversible damage to society.

@tclairsmith Oh nice! I appreciate the suggestion (anything helps lol). Mines a thriller but you never know!

@robin_singer I’m doing something similar, but in this case I’m killing off the typical main character and shifting to a side character as the actual protagonist. I’ve only now realized that I stole that from The Other Guys. I wonder if that’s a good reference for your script as well.

Can you think of a movie that misleads you into believing a character is the protagonist, only for another character to reveal themself as the main character near the end of Act I?

@TaraAnsley I can lay down and listen which is relaxing, and I like that they require me to imagine things, similar to reading. There’s also something intimate about having a story told to you. Writing wise, there’s almost always a good hook and cliffhangers.

People that are SUPER into podcasts.... why ? what does it for you ? why do you keep tuning in ? Why audio ... give me the details and mind thoughts... thanks !

@tclairsmith I tried to introduce a character as the protagonist to reveal her as the antagonist after act 1 and that did not really work (for me). I feel like there’s no reason it shouldn’t work with a smart audience? But I didn’t quite get there. Yet.

@robin_singer That’s what I’m worried about. Hoping this but of research will help.

Glad to see Sami’s work acknowledged! So many brilliant and talented people make films possible. nytimes.com/2023/06/21/mov…

Agree this needs much more attention.

Buckle up! Here comes a long one! Don’t know who wrote, but it was passed along to me. This is the clearest rundown on why the DGA's deal regarding AI isn't even close to truly protecting us, particularly anyone who isn't at the very top of the food chain.
English
@QPORIT I kind of get while they’re trying to carve this out, but also think carve outs are a mistake at this point from the DGA perspective. A studio is never going to penalize you for using a tool for efficiency, whereas DGA members will lose out if the studio exploits loopholes.

@glenmazzara I did research on this exact topic and you’re totally right. Burns just lead to more potential infection. It’s not at all medically accurate.
