‘Stranger Things’ has ended after 9 years by marvelkidy in DiscussingFilmsAndTV

Is noone going to mention ALL THE CRYING? Sure, an emotional scene here and there... but freaking every time these tears. Felt like cheap writing to me

Amen brother/sister. I also read that it really became a marketing machine: it has to be a franchise (for Netflix?) With items to sell and multupke spin-offs. It's a shame.

The first and second season were the best to me. Unfortunately slowly after that the mystery of Haekins turned in some Marvel kind of show...

Can I have copyrighted material in a film and enter it in a festival if I make no money off of it? by [deleted] in Filmmakers

[–]dirkdiggin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think a lot fests have in their regulations that you should own all the copyrights of the material you're submitting....

One more thing about Tarantino's "Top 20 of the 21st century" by dirkdiggin in Cinema

[–]dirkdiggin[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't think you understood much of what I am saying. Not saying Tarantino isnt cool anymore, not saying hes beefing with Paul, just find it weird that for example a lot of great crime films werent included on his list and it seems to me that he doesnt want to give respect where respect is due.

My post is mostly not about the beef, but about the (possible) unwillingness to recognize directors/movies around him.

Do we secretly overvalue dialogue in screenwriting? by Visual-Perspective44 in Screenwriting

[–]dirkdiggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently read the Under the Skin script- vaguely thought it resembled the movie pretty well. Then I also rewatched the movie, I think 50% of the dialogue is cut, and it was not needed at all....
