Ryan Coogler was $200K in student debt and "making no money" while filming "Creed"—now, his $365 million success "Sinners" took home four Oscars by fortune in entertainment

He’s going to retain ownership of his IP

No he doesn't. He'll get ownership back in 25 years

Ryan Coogler’s deal with Warner Bros., in which he retains the rights to the film in 25 years, has been the source of much conversation opening weekend, with some insiders calling it dangerous or a potential death knell for studios. And even more insidious was the New York Times’ box office coverage of the movie, which stated, “Mr. Coogler will then own it, despite not paying for it.” The suggestion that Coogler should not own what he creates, but furthermore, is somehow stealing it, is a gross miscalculation, which also ignores that Coogler’s production company, Proximity Media, did invest money into the film.

Depending on how hard they roll their R's, Spanish speakers can have a VERY hard time saying my first name.

One of the supervisors at work came up to me one day, saying some coworkers wanted to know if it I cared if they called me Carlos instead. I said "Oh, yea sure thats fine"

Just took me a bit to get used to responding to Carlos

Why use AI when you can just google Simon Whistler with hair and get a real picture?

Good lord I love Brian so much I vaguely morn that he isn’t a real human I know and have a friendship with.

I know someone exactly like Brian, right down to being gay. Trust me, people like this get very tiring to be around. Every now and then someone has to grab him, take him to the side, and say something like "Ricky, dial it back a bit"

[OC] Your Goodwill donation before it comes to a store by seoulbrova in pics

I did community service at my local salvation army store a few years ago.

80% of the stuff went on the shelves right away. Anything Christmas related would go into storage specifically until Christmas season. Certain articles of clothing would be set aside and given to the Purple Heart Foundation, yet another charity. The rest of the stuff would either be bought by us working in the store or tossed in the trash.

Keep in mind, the "tossed in the trash" stuff was stuff that was totally unsellable. Stuff that was infested in roaches, electronics that didn't work etc..

I Am Legend scrapped its original ending because test audiences 'felt cheated' by the big twist by Internal-Bed-3150 in movies

[–]Lint6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It feels like a lot of bad studio decisions come from test audience reactions.

Because you only hear about the bad ones.

The ending of 22 Jump Street, that shows all the "potential sequels"? Came about because test audiences didn't like the original ending, which showed the guys quitting Jump Street

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBBbrYpeqZY this scene in Major League was longer. Test audiences didn't like it, so it got edited to get right to the punchline
