2: A thousand apologies to all of you, especially anyone who got the phishing messages and might have been hacked in turn.
3: Bring me the head of Coach Antonia.

Seeing Angelyne on an LA freeway means a week of good luck and that your script will sell. Those are the rules.

Seeing Raiders in the theater with my dad, having no idea what to expect and having my young mind blown is a formative experience for me.
Jun 12
45 years ago today, our favorite archaeologist set off on his first cinematic adventure. Raiders of the Lost Ark was only ILM's second project outside of the Star Wars saga, and our first collaboration with director Steven Spielberg. It's been many years since those early days, and even more miles!
Watch the film today on Disney !

I will forever love Spielberg because I got a sincere laugh out of him when I told him my young daughter's reaction to me telling her I was meeting him: "That's so great, dad! It's like you're meeting Michael Bay's opposite!"
99% of Spielberg discourse ignores that if you delete Jaws and Star Wars the biggest movies of the 70s would still mostly be like, Smokey and the Bandit and The Poseidon Adventure.

I related what my daughter said and he doubled over, then said "That's amazing, and I think she's right! That's why Michael and I get along so well together-- because we're opposites."

This was the same meeting where I blurted out about a story we were working on "I think we need a USS Indianapolis speech here, you know what I'm talking about?" and Spielberg just looked at me evenly and said "Yes, I'm familiar with it."

Whoever chose the awesome Rachid Taha version of "Rock the Casbah" for this montage earned their pay for the month and then some.

So what's the most plausible reason for the already wildly successful SpaceX doing an IPO now? Are they really getting ready to plow a ton of money into orbital data center and need the capital?

This makes me sad that they weren't doing custom popcorn buckets when Hannibal came out, because eating popcorn out of a plastic Ray Liotta head would have been peak moviegoing.

Tom Cruise loves popcorn so much he had someone make him a Steven Spielberg popcorn bucket and I think that’s beautiful tbh:

A Mad Max TV series could actually be great. Kung Fu, but with cars.
Jun 12
BREAKING via @MattBelloni: GEORGE MILLER was just in town shopping one last MAD MAX movie, and possibly a TV series, before he plans to sell the IP to the highest bidder. WB has passed on the new Mad Max movie, though Sony, Universal, and Amazon are in the mix.

Unpopular opinion but I'm an animal lover with a lot of compassion for Michael Vick. He seems genuinely remorseful and contrite and has done a tremendous amount of work doing advocacy with the Humane Society to dissuade young people from dog fighting. People can change.

Former NFL star Michael Vick says he cried for two weeks straight after going to prison
“It didn't get real til they slammed that door and they locked it”
“My first day in there, they kept coming to check on me to make sure I was alright. They were peeking in on me. I took the covers and just put them over my head because I felt like I was about to go crazy for a minute”
“Every time they came to that door to check on me, I thought it was somebody coming to say, ‘Alright, you learned your lesson. Somebody bailed you out’”
“After day four or five, when I realized that nobody was coming, that's when I had to start letting all the emotions out”
“I cried for two weeks straight. I really cried after I got sentenced because I went into my sentencing not expecting to get two years”
“You know what, this is about to be a chapter in my life that I'll never forget. Hopefully I can live to talk about it and laugh about it. It's not a serious matter”
“This is for the next generations to see as they watch this and be like ‘Don't play with your career. Don't play with what God gave you and the position He put you in. Never take that for granted”

The fact that the rogue who gives Indy his hat looks remarkably like a movie star version of Spielberg himself makes this a wonderfully meta moment.

The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney

Modern day My Fair Lady, only it's Benedict Cumberbatch teaching a Gen Z American starlet how to drop the vocal fry and enunciate clearly.

Beginning to think that spreading World Cup teams across mid-sized college towns in the American heartland was a stroke of genius.

People are interpreting this as "see, the art director got results!" when the article is just a description of how indie film revenue gets contractually distributed--the "waterfall" as they call it. Nowhere does it define "creative team," which usually only means above the line.
Capstone, the company that financed ‘OBSESSION’, is estimated to make $45M - $50M from the film after its success.
They will share this with the creative team, including director Curry Barker.

This is why indie film contract wrangling is usually over who gets to be "first out" and make their money back first-- usually the equity investors. The "creative team" is nearly always far, far back in the repayment line.

The economics of independent films are brutal & bleak. The people who make them do it because they love it & because creative people are by necessity irrationally confident in ourselves-- "I know the odds, but MY film is the one that's gonna be a huge hit."
