Feel incredibly lucky to have hosted a discussion on the weekend with Mark Lee about Gallipoli. It was great to hear his stories from the production and his thoughts on the light/dark sides of the film's long lasting impact.

Development of one of the shots in Flow. Every shot goes through many iterations. In most cases the look is found directly in the 3d scene instead of using concept art. Everything is made in Blender and rendered using EEVEE.

It's official! Ketchup Entertainment has purchased the worldwide rights for COYOTE VS. ACME from Warner Bros., and will distribute the film in theaters.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 

Ketchup Entertainment Acquires Worldwide Rights to 

COYOTE VS. ACME

 

Los Angeles, CA – March 31, 2025 – Ketchup Entertainment today announced its acquisition from Warner Bros. Pictures of worldwide rights to COYOTE VS. ACME, a live-action/animated hybrid film that brings the iconic Looney Tunes character Wile E. Coyote to the big screen.

 

Gareth West, CEO of Ketchup Entertainment, said: “We’re thrilled to have made a deal with Warner Bros. Pictures to bring this film to audiences worldwide. COYOTE VS. ACME is a perfect blend of nostalgia and modern storytelling, capturing the essence of the beloved Looney Tunes characters while introducing them to a new generation. We believe it will resonate with both longtime fans and newcomers alike.”

 

Directed by Dave Green, COYOTE VS. ACME features a stellar cast, including Will Forte, John Cena, Lana Condor and Tone Bell. The film centers on Wile E. Coyote as he takes legal action against the Acme Corporation for the countless faulty products that have hindered his relentless pursuit of the Road Runner. COYOTE VS. ACME is produced by Chris deFaria and James Gunn with a screenplay by Samy Burch.

Aussies. There's a new miniseries starting on SBS very soon called Australia: An Unofficial History. It features clips from a rarely seen early Peter Weir film, Whatever Happened to Green Valley? Keep an eye out for it. Great stuff.

Aaron Swartz died because rapacious capitalists insisted that sharing knowledge and ideas — not for profit but to enrich society — was theft. Now we have a whole Silicon Valley industry devoted to undoing artistic copyright, and for what? Fake emails and shitty advertising copy.

Sad about John Marsden, some great YA books and when he got asked about the inherent xenophobia in the Tomorrow series he said he wouldn’t do it again because of how the country has come to treat refugees. Most writers his age just rant about cancel culture. Vale JM.

"Moneyball" (2011). Look at this amazing shot of the Oakland Coliseum at night, of Beane quietly walking across the field. Now think about it. This movie is mostly about men arguing in offices and locker rooms. Wally Pfister and his team lit the movie like it was something more.

Beyond the attempt to appear “relatable” the actual problem with this is that Spotify is part of the reason why smaller Australians acts the PM is highlighting are struggling. There’s various policies that could help (taxes to fund arts, quotas etc) but he is doing nothing while plugging the company

We didn’t understand you’re supposed to pay to send screeners to critics (an eblast quote to just one group was $13k… have to budget that next time). It’s widely available on the internet! We prefer Kanopy, you just need a library card and it’s free. U still have a library card… RIGHT?!

Peter Weir quietly did a filmmaking masterclass at the Biennale this year and I think it would be a shame if more people didn't see it. One of the greatest to ever do it just casually popping in to deliver some wisdom.

The number one advice any & every writing professional can & will give you is this: DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SUCK. You have spent years reading books, watching movies & TV, developing taste to know good from bad. NO ONE GETS TO READ YOUR WRITING UNTIL YOU LET THEM. Trust your taste & write fearlessly.
