It would be tough to pick a single film per decade, so I'll just go with one that seems forgotten today. Out of Sight (1998). This would also be my choice for Jennifer Lopez.

One of the problems we have with genAI is that people literally can't tell good from bad
They can't read an image and discern the intent it was made with, the reason it makes you feel a certain way
It's not 'real' work to them, because they can't see it
I fucking hate it!!!

Well, the best part of my day/year was when my friend Emily asked "Is that a sticker of *yourself* on your notebook?" 😃🏔🏔☕️

A music cue in Orphan Black clearly used a bit from The Leftovers as a temp track... so obviously now I'm gonna have to re-watch The Leftovers next. Happy New Year?

A comic book sequel to Event Horizon has been announced!
"Two hundred years later, a billionaire brings his own private star fleet to the wreckage around Neptune. He’s heard stories of the Event Horizon and will gleefully sacrifice any number of employees to uncover its secrets!"

I'll eagerly watch/rewatch a @johnyorkestory.bsky.social structure seminar at every opportunity for story inspiration, confirmation and motivation. But I think his lecture may have reached its final ultimate form now that he's using K-Pop Demon Hunters in his examples!! :)

Thanks so much to @thebadspot.bsky.social for guiding @barrytryan.bsky.social, @voyager3.bsky.social and me through a misfit, musical menagerie on an absurdist (sorry) with rhinestones, powdered milk addiction and more Hollywood cameos than expected (mostly representing the Devil - oooh, satire!)

I keep thinking about all of the people who were NOT hired as part of this exercise. All the real world production crew. The actors. The caterers supporting real world shoots. So many people with real skills not being paid. So. Many. Creative. People. Not. Being. Paid.
The company behind the mcdonalds ad:
Imagine taking more time than it would take to do something traditionally. I bet it would take a builder longer to build a house out of jelly instead of brick, because jelly isn't brick.

This is incredible.
Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.
