Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Adults these days consume way too much media made for children

What’s the most boomer complaint you have?

I always complain that movie & TV sets these days are too aspirational lifestyle e.g. RED DRAGON (2002) vs. MANHUNTER (1986) — Ed Norton & William Petersen as same dude w/ same job in same story; compare their houses (MH left, RD right) — but I rewatched & it's more than that

I like Twitter because you have Oscar winning writers with 500 followers tweeting about their cat and aspiring writers in Florida with 50,000 followers charging for screenwriting lessons. The ultimate melting pot.

There’s an ecosystem of remarkable & cool & talented disabled creatives - who also know our TV staffing percentages are infinitesimal, so the experiences we have only carry currency in the spaces we build together We aren’t the only audience who needs to hear from us though

Judd Apatow on comedy. The insight? You should treat comedy as drama. The idea of it. At the heart of all comedy are serious issues that should be treated with respect. What's your favorite comedy movie of all time? Source: Masterclass #comedy #screenwriting #writingtips

The reason that 1976 seems much more distant from 1993 than 2007 does from 2024 is that the internet has trapped us in a cultural forever-present, unable to move into the future because the things of the past never fade from sight. We inhabit a static, stuck, ersatz culture

Dazed and Confused came out in 1993 and was based in 1976. A comparable movie today would be based in 2007 🙃

WRITING TIP: if you're ever feeling stuck, do a little bit of cocaine

Film journo @kristenlopez88, who uses a wheelchair, intro’ed a screening of SPELLBOUND tonight @EgyptianLA She took this photo of the awesome theater re-design, that now allows disabled talent like her (and me!) to get on stage There’s no reason this can’t be an industry norm!

Finally watched The Iron Claw. We need more dude weepies where real Tough kinda dumb dudes desperately grapple with emotions and the audience (me) drives home sobbing grappling with my emotions. Maybe we’re all grappling? * 10/10 *Not a wrestling pun.
