Alien allowed men to experience the fear of rape leading to pregnancy via hermaphroditic alien. Brilliant.
Stumbled across @LoganLancing's catchy AI Batman song and couldn't help but make an edit from the magnificent 1989 footage.
FSD was engaged last night when it saved me from a near-collision by speeding up and swerving around a Honda that turned into my lane without warning.
I attended a writing seminar with David Chase years ago. He assured us that whatever element of your story was closest to your heart, no matter how foundational or disguised it was, executives would find it and rip it out.
David Chase, creator of "The Sopranos," says the recent golden age of "quality TV" (such "Mad Men," 'The Wire" etc) is at an end, as execs are telling him to “dumb down” his shows, & he's being warned not to make TV that “requires an audience to focus." 🤮

Hi @chrisatlatenite the BRAW Toolbox plugin stopped responding.
I granted sandbox access, uninstalled/reinstalled, restarted, used new FCP libraries, but no dice.
I get ~30 seconds of funcitonality followed by plug-in crash.

Was listening to a physicist discuss the importance of thinking from first principles.
Made me think -- what are the first principles of storytelling?
Someone has a lack/need/desire that they act upon, transforming themselves or their group as a result. #screenwriting
Is that accurate? Ballpark? Can it be stated more simply?
I would love to know what some screenwriters think about this. Cc: @johnaugust @clmazin @bryanedwardhill @mattsontomlin @GennHutchison @dottiehudson @MuseZack
Mom works at Chez Panisse (I’m a lucky basterd). She comes home late from a shift with a sandwich a chef whipped up. Slow cooked lamb on fresh baguette with aioli and arugula. It was so fucking good that after I was done I rolled around on the floor holding my belly and laughing.

And if you flip The Terminator on its head you get Back To The Future:
A man sends his father back in time to protect his mother and ensure his own birth.
A man goes back in time, disrupts his own birth, and tries to put it back together.
Saw Blue at 19 and it blew my fucking mind. Hooks you instantly, has on of the best fusions of soundtrack and imagery, and is so playful and unconventional that it's just a joy to watch. Zigs every time you think it's gonna zag. Kieslowski was one of the best to ever do it.
