Had a great time talking with David about our Chromagraph app, digital and film photography, and being a gadget nut.

Very fun little interview today for @verge cast! I interviewed @rianjohnson about his and @steveyedlin 's new app, though to be honest we mostly just nerded the hell out about film photography. My favorite. Gift link! theverge.com/tech/1025659/ri…

So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. apps.apple.com/app/apple-sto…

A few caveats: it's stills only, it doesn't do video, we may pursue it in the future but it likely would only be possible on the last few generations of pro model iPhones.

And huge apologies to my Android friends but it's iPhone only. Hardware consistency across Apple devices is part of what allows us to do this with confidence. Android devices are much more varied, and there's no way with our small team we could dial it in for every device.

The DGA has an online archive of deep dive career history interviews with some all time legends that are all worth digging into. I got to interview a hero of mine for this series, the great and powerful Frank Oz. dga.org/craft/visualhistory/…

Reposting this because I revamped my site and the link changed. Added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I think is more interesting than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! rian-johnson.com/scripts

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery is one of my favorite movies, maybe ever, and it was a treat to sit down with @rianjohnson to discuss the excoticism of Catholicism, the meaning behind the movie, and much more. youtube.com/watch?v=D6nV9VOR…

I look forward to David’s montage every year. With the state of things today it’s particularly exhilarating to see how vibrant rebellious and alive the year in cinema has been. ❤️

Sam Raimi is one of my all time cinema gods and I cannot wait to see this.

Took us 6 years to get SEND HELP made. It all started as a pitch to Sam Raimi. Original movies in the theater are an endangered species. If you love them, please come out on the 30th. This movie is an experience. You'll scream and laugh and gasp and why am I pointing at that guy

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "[JD Vance]'s comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."
As a Catholic, Vance knows better than to peddle this brand of gaslighting and agitation. Vance knows that, by virtue of her humanity, Good was endowed with inherent dignity, made in the image and likeness of God. Vance knows that only God can take life. Vance knows that protesting, fleeing or even interfering in an ICE investigation (which there is no evidence that Good did) does not carry a death sentence. Vance knows that lying and killing are sins. Vance knows. He doesn't care. Vance’s twisted and wrongheaded view of Christianity has been repudiated by two popes. His Catholicism seems to be little more than a political prop, a tool only for his career ambitions and desire for power. The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel. Our only recourse is to pray for his conversion of heart.
