Progress is difficult. It requires common agreement on what progress is, and the ability to envision it without fear of the unknown. Nostalgia is an easy con. It’s a lie, but an effective emotional one. The lie of a past that never existed, and can never be regained, but the lie comforts. Some.

I think our current reality is cyberpunk. Techno-powered loneliness. A president that’s the villain from THE RUNNING MAN. Social media making us anti-social. Digital currencies. Technocracy controlling government. Invasive AI. We’re here. Just no giant holos of Ana De Armas. Not yet.

New Kendrick ritual. 1. Catch up on @fdsignifier.bsky.social so I know the landscape. 2. Feel like I’m failing at everything FD is right about. 3. Drink water. 4. Listen to Kendrick and go for a walk.

And change can simply just start with being better to the people in your life. If we all just did that, broad societal changes would take care of themselves.

And I'll add - if there's conversational room for it... ...ask them if they have a project they're stuck on, and see if you can take a look to figure it out. I've gotten gigs that way.

Yup. Because we have far more content given to us from celebrities on social media than we can consume, we see them all the time in media, so it’s less compelling to go to see a movie simply from interest in the star. Just go to IG. Watch a story. Done. We’re staying home.

Jeff makes a great point here. You cast “stars” for two reasons, really. 1. You love what their specific talent can bring to your project. 2. Their celebrity is a backstop against your movie not drawing an audience. Bankability. The problem is…

Red One has a chance to change feature biz. By sending everyone scurrying back to medium budgets and less bloated “star power.” All that has to happen is to convince studios they’ll hit their shareholder numbers more consistently with singles and doubles than home runs and strikeouts.

I would work on the BLADE film, were Marvel to ask, but I imagine I might be to “horror” for what they need. My Blade screenplay would be pretty intense.

It’s kinda cool to start over with a social media platform. Maybe they all get stale after a certain amount of time. I’m still dubious of the net positive of social media, but it’s woven into our culture.

I can’t share much of my film ARCHANGEL…yet…but here’s actor Conor Leslie (TITANS, MAN IN THE HIGH CASTLE) doing a full cast (sfx by Dan Rebert) for the film. I nerded out. Made me feel like John Carpenter, hahaha.

Guillermo is a wizard. He’s making the perfect Guillermo project with the pitch perfect cast to do it. It’s really inspiring how he cuts through it all and finds the amazing.

The Yusaku Matsuda trilogy is barely organized chaos, but I love it. #Film

Random pop-culture thoughts. The Rock likes to deconstruct his action guy brand with comedy — but he hasn’t done a serious action film in a while. Maybe he needs to re-up the core brand for balance.
