Sorry, I forgot to mention that the disappointing novel has a typewriter tampered with extraterrestrial matter but I can’t remember what exactly. It writes telepathically while one of the characters sleeps.

It’s a Stephen King novel that he wrote while he was high on cocaine and alcohol. “Cujo” turned out but “The Tommyknockers” is disappointing.

Like in “The Tommyknockers?”

“The Midnight Archives” breaks folklore and history down so well that it makes its use of A.I. inconsequential.

He has reached meme purgatory, where he’ll remain.

There’s a literal organ trail scene in the “Organ Trail” script. It wasn’t filmed as it was the last scene slated and they ran short of time. Unfortunately, I no longer have the legal authority to share the script but I can assure you, it wasn’t a pleasant death for the Trading Post clerk.

There’s only two crucial rules in screenwriting:

1. Always finish your script.
2. Write for yourself and edit for the highest bidder.

Before Ryan Gosling crooned in “Barbie” (2023), he was under your bed with Dead Man’s Bones.

Fun Fact #508:

Screenwriter and playwright Robert Harling wrote the play and film adaptation of “Steel Magnolias,” while also acting as the priest, and “The First Wives Club.”

“Steel Magnolias” is a dramatized version of his sister’s determination to not let Type 1 Diabetes run her life.

This hurts my soul. Diane Keaton has always been ahead of her time. A true icon who started on Broadway’s “Hair” and never stopped challenging herself with intimidating roles like the vitriolic matriarch in “The Family Stone.”

My favorite performance will always be:

This embodies the same energy as the idiotic perception that heterosexual cisgender men deliberately go through years of psychological diagnostic tests, hormone therapy, and painful surgeries to become the most vilified minority just so they could enter women’s bathrooms to prey on the women within.

Take it from someone who knows. If you’re overwhelmed, laughter is not the best medicine. Crying is. Put on a film you know will make you bawl like a baby and let go. It’s the only way to exorcise your demons other than putting them on paper.

“Renaissance Man” (1994), a cynical and recently fired ad writer takes a job teaching soldiers with learning disabilities “Hamlet,” which helps them see the world from different perspectives and shows him life from a better perspective in turn.

This is my favorite scene.

A.I. feels off, like it’s too perfect for a human brain to comprehend. It’s like seeing someone without no eyebrows. You don’t realize it immediately but you automatically recognize that something isn’t right.

I love @audacityofdespair.bsky.social

He's probably not the DEMOLITION MAN fan I am (I bet he never pinned the complementary Taco Bell movie poster to his bedroom wall), but... same.

AI ALWAYS feels... off. I've never personally physically encountered a Fleshlight, but I get the drift, and: no.
