Glumly realizing that I would actually like Trump to continue to be alive until the midterms, just to avoid the utter avalanche of "in fairness" and "Clean slate" and "He's slowly proving to be his own man" and "Fresh start" and "Benefit of the doubt" with which the media would lube his successor.
I believe that a lot of them are hardcore pragmatists, which at this point...fine. But a large percentage of would-be Democratic kingmakers love "authenticity" when it comes to straight white dudes with no impulse control, and in anyone else, frown that they're not "meeting people where they are."
Don’t worry, this will definitely be the last piece of unwelcome news about him. No more problems for sure!
Peak 1992 style and hotness! I love every second.
Actually, telling me with zero knowledge how I have been blinded by hatred is the definition of bad faith. Let's stop now because I don't have time to give you a crash course in a subject I have covered for forty years, and if I see the word bro again I cannot be held responsible for what follows.☮️
Not really in need of a history lesson on this, or of bad-faith replies about my tastes, thanks. If I didn't think something was interesting, I wouldn't be posting.
I'm not sure what your point is. A24 is everything traditional studios are not, and $10 million is pennies.
Yeah, and I've written about the "other" 1970s Hollywood--the one full of a more successful version of traditional studio product. But that doesn't mean nothing important changed, or that nothing important is changing now.
One thing to look for this summer is that when something traditional and franchisey connects in a big way--say, Toy Story, Spider-Man (but not, we now know, Star Wars), the "Hollywood's back, baby!" noise in the trade press is going to be loud, maybe too insistent. And you know...I guess we'll see.
I always think of what the smart and menschy director Arthur Penn told me about the early- and mid-'60s years just before everything changed when I interviewed him for Pictures at a Revolution: "It wasn't just that we were sick of the system. At that point, the system was sick of itself."
I'm watching the last of the old-guard studios labor and sweat to drag their ancient mainstays--Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Fast/Furious, etc.--into the 2030s, and it feels like just enough of them will succeed to convince those in charge not to look down and see the ground vanishing beneath their feet.
Is, not are. Goddamnit, somebody grow this site up and give me an edit function.
Yeah, I'm talking about the remaining traditionals: Sony, Paramount, Universal, Warner Brothers, and Disney.
I'd add a whole range of movies--as varied as Weapons, The Housemaid, The Sheep Detectives, Project Hail Mary, The Drama, Iron Lung, and Michael--to make a case that we might be embarking on the first big realignment in ages. (Note: No sequels, and exactly one studio film out of the 9 I've named.)
Between the box office performance of Obsession and Backrooms (as well as several other recent films), it feels like something about American moviegoing tastes and habits are shifting very quickly in a way for which most of the people with the money to finance movies are completely unprepared.
Is there a good reason why MS NOW could not, or should not, launch a weekly reported-newsmagazine alternative to 60 Minutes?
Honestly, where do people find the time.
Oh, THAT’S what gooning is? Suddenly feeling good about not asking the table at dinner the other night.
