I wish people understood that TV writers: 1. *Have* actually thought more about this than even the most die hard fan. 2. Are beholden to time, money, and owner constraints that fans will never be aware of. 3. Are extremely likely to already be aware of any critiques because (see 1) but (see 2)

And also people who ball torture along with the ball torture scene in the movie. You’re telegraphing! Some of us haven’t seen the movie yet!

I briefly shifted to buying digital comics several years ago. It was a mistake. Support your local store.

HALLOWEEN HORROR FILM #2 - FRIDAY THE 13TH (1980) If the buddy system existed in 1980, it would have robbed us of a great franchise.

God, you’re right. Always thought he looked so cool. I was surprised rewatching that he’s not in the film for a long period of time, but that design leaves an impression.

The tone is kind of all over the place. But it was a gateway horror flick for me as a cowardly kid. I remember the poster terrified me so much I was relieved it was a comedy.

HALLOWEEN HORROR FILM #1 - HOUSE (1985) Vietnam, child abduction, and it’s a comedy? The 80’s were nuts. Great poster too!

Had a chance to see FORGOTTEN ISLAND. Please go and support this movie in theaters! It's an absolutely awesome animated film - one of the best original animated features in a long time. Amazing visuals, an eye-popping fantasy world ... but also SO much heart. Bonus: full of great 90's references!

Did my annual rewatch of "The Lion In Winter". Anyone who wants to be a #screenwriter should view this regularly. William Goldman (rightfully) is venerated for his Oscared "All The President's Men", but his brother James Goldman leaves him in the dirt with THIS staggering Oscar script. #scriptsky

Oh, I need to get that one! I’ve been waiting on the collections. That original flick is pretty viscous when you go back and watch it. He basically turns into a terrorist.

Dracula is gorgeous. Frankenstein is my favorite so far and has a cool spin on the story of the film. Those are my top two so far.

We dragged our broken bodies to see Forgotten Island and it was great, you should see it! I always want to push for authentic emotion and relationships, and this movie has it in spades. We need more movies with heart like this. Also I laughed out loud at some of the things that got approved in this.

This movie is so good it’ll find its audience, eventually. But fans of original animation really owe it to themselves to check this out in the theater.

It’s always an uphill climb for animated originals, and even moreso ones kneecapped by poor advertising. PLEASE go out and support this gem and help give it the legs to run! Great word of mouth works better than you think!

Really? I had no idea. I know his Dune stuff (which I haven’t read) is supposed to be polarizing. I still read a ton of that stuff and he’s easily in my EU writer top five.

Yeah, it felt like Sci-Fi Star Wars. Didn’t have enough of the cliffhanger aspect. I thought Kevin Anderson’s Jedi Academy books captured that stuff better.
