This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

I’ve driven past the WB lot Olive billboard for years and dreamt about having a show (specifically a DC Comics show) up on that sacred space. Get Jiro based on the comic by Anthony Bourdain Joel Rose & Langdon Foss premieres this Sat. Oct 3rd at midnight on Adult Swim and then next day on HBO Max.

I don't think this this has anything to do with AI. I just finished on two big productions and use of AI never came into play. If it's being used, and I'm sure it is, it's on the margins. This has more to do with contraction and lack of support from studios.

This would have been a great premise for a 1970s disaster movie, but who would have played the president?

It'd be nice if the 90s-era movie stars I knew growing up (Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, etc.) were able to age gracefully onscreen a la the stars of *their* youth, like Paul Newman or Jack Nicholson.

By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.

It's not just that streamers are doing TV but more expensive. They also decimated necessary practices like practical budgets and dependable production schedules. Then, with shortened episode orders & smaller staffs / crews, made it so no one under 40 can break in anymore unless they're connected.

So Paramount+ is doing jack shit to promote it, but the second of AVERAGE JOE is available now. This is a terrific little show. A bit like Breaking Bad in how it relishes in the little details as the stakes escalate. It’s alternately thrilling, scary, and hilarious.

It’s an unwritten rule in genre TV that when your heroes have to grab a change of clothes on the run, said clothes are always, always locally-branded tourist merch. Reacher is a show that knows all the rules.

Someone referred to Scream 4 as “Millennial Scream” and I think that’s brilliant. Sandwiched between the Gen X (Irony) and Gen Z (Solipsism) trilogies, S4 is an outlier that’s a solid and prescient horror film, with a young cast slaughtered in the process of trying to live up to their predecessors.

Been on a Superman The Animated Series kick recently, so I did some 6x9 illustrations based on different episodes I enjoy. First up is probably my favorite episode of the whole series: THE LATE MR. KENT
Stylized after Bruce Timm's aesthetic. Montage feat. close up of Clark looking skeptical touching his glasses, in the f/g his car on a highway exploding, and in the b/g the Daily Planet building with Superman flying nearby
