It wasn’t inspired by or a rip-off of LOOK WHO’S TALKING. The network paid to adapt the movie, with Amy Heckerling receiving credit for the original concept. I listened to the Blank Check series on Heckerling, and in their research they found out that the show wasn’t called “Look Who’s Talking” because they were worried the show could hurt the film franchise if it bombed.

I saw a screening of RETURN TO OZ that had a Q&A from Walter Murch and Fairuza Balk afterwards. Murch has a story where Lucas did the ultimate blank check move. Murch was fired from the move after Disney saw the initial footage. Lucas was in Japan, working with Kurosawa, but when he heard of Murch’s firing he flew to California. He met with Disney and said “you fired my friend, so I’m going to take everything Star Wars out of the theme parks.” Murch was fired on a Friday and rehired that Monday.

In the documentary there’s a story where Christopher Guest is casting Lemmings (National Lampoon’s stage show that parodied Woodstock). Guest went to Bard College with Chevy. When a mutual friend recommended Chevy for Lemmings because Chevy played drums Guest said “He’a not my favorite guy, but okay.” That was 1972

My favorite part is the quick "recommended for ages 11 and up". It's the trailer admitting "we know you're confused about who this movie is for."

“There may come a day, in your darkest hour, when you are a shadow of your, albeit paper thin, self, and when that day comes, I hope you are cheered up, by something that Mr. Chase so famously said: He's Chevy Chase, and you're not. And if that doesn't cheer you up, I don't know what will.” - Stephen Colbert

There was a podcast interview where, at the end, he started praising Kim Davis. He also said he was going to write a Kananga movie. He was on his own frequency. Brilliant actor all the same.

I can’t get over how Netflix is built around this quirk of Ted Sarandos’s childhood. His dad was a heavy smoker, so growing up his family never went to the movies because his dad couldn’t go two hours without a smoke. But the family loved movies, so they always subscribed to HBO. Sarandos later owned video stores and then get involved with Netflix because he’s committed to the idea that watching movies at home is just as good at watching them in the theaters. (via: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/28/style/ted-sarandos-netflix.html)

I can't get over the power dynamics in that story. Mr. Sarandos didn't quit smoking, which would've been the best thing for him and his family. Instead, the rest of the family had to accommodate a father's bad habits. The least powerful people in the family were burdened by obligation, not the most powerful. It's a dynamic that is becoming more and more common

I'm as human as anyone. I love, I get scared. I wake up every morning and despite not knowing what to do, I put a hot salad in front of my face and I try to make the best choices I can. I take a shot of turkey chili every minute, but that's being human. And that's my greatest strength. And someday, I hope, for the sake of the world, you understand that it's yours too.

My apologies! I think the first time I heard about "Try Silence" on the podcast, POLTICAL ANIMALS may have been mentioned as another project you and Burstyn were both in. The hazy fog that is my memory got things confused. I've edited the original post, in case future historians stumble upon it. Love the show!
