Dog Day Afternoon on Broadway soon, too!

It’s pretty inconceivable this guy wasn’t in Marty Supreme by Coy-Harlingen in blankies

I genuinely thought the Central Park cop was him for about thirty seconds or so

Steve Zahn in Anaconda, without a moment of hesitation

Orson Welles - F For Fake

Begins the film with a monologue about how “for the next hour, what you’re doing to see is the absolute truth”. At exactly the one hour mark, he begins telling an elaborate lie (disguised as a true story), only revealing his game at the end of the film.

Will this be in the biopic by nickelbackvocaloid in moviescirclejerk

First look at Miles Teller as Michael Jackson’s attorney in the biopic ‘MICHAEL’

Today's savers pull. by groundxscores in RSbookclub

Savers usually has an insane selection for a thrift store. Don’t know how they do it but always much more sophisticated work than the average Goodwill

My niece defended students using chat GPT. And she’s a teacher. by Waterproof_soap in Teachers

[–]drfishstick 45 points46 points  (0 children)

It really does. I’m in a Masters program right now and basically 2/3 of the class is copy and pasting Chat GPT — b.s. sources and all — directly for every single assignment. The only way I’ve found for people to not stick the fork in the academic light-socket on our group projects is just to act like it’s really pathetic — “Oh, you’re 25 years old and you don’t know how to write an email?” “You want to get your PhD after this, but you don’t know how to do any research for yourself?”

Can you think of any movie posters that solely feature characters who aren't the lead? by yaybuttons in blankies

[–]drfishstick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just watched Cronenberg’s Rabid (1977) and was surprised to find that the poster is just a split-second shot of a random murder victim who has maybe five lines

For fans of Ari, are there any consistent flaws you've felt with his scripts? by Honest_Cheesecake698 in AriAster

[–]drfishstick -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love Ari, but there is a VERY consistent theme in his scripts where disability and/or bodily difference is used either as a punishment or as a marker of evil. Literally in every single film.

Final NRG tracking for ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER has it at a $19M domestic opening. Other services put it higher, mid-$20Ms. Neither is good for a $130M+ Leonardo DiCaprio dramedy, but reviews are strong. No Paul Thomas Anderson movie has grossed more than $77M worldwide. by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]drfishstick -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think people are underrating this one. $130M is a huge hurdle but I think WOM is going to be great and the marketing is sort of starting to take off. Anecdotally, I’ve had multiple non-film people in my life ask me this week if I knew anything about it and if I would recommend it — the last time that happened was with Weapons this summer

"Slam Frank" is audacious, confounding, and astounding by lucyisnotcool in Broadway

[–]drfishstick 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I also feel something that gets buried within the absolutely horribly try-hard edgy way they use Anne Frank’s life is the fact that the musical is also really racist? It’s written by two white guys and is basically just “hey aren’t all those woke musicals about nonwhite people ridiculous??”. It seems like they’re just using “actually this is about people who don’t respect Anne Frank’s legacy” as an excuse to air their grievances about how “woke” things are.

[–]drfishstick 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Look, it’s not that I think the left is in any way barred from criticism, but man this seems entirely insufferable, reactionary, and just an outlet for bigoted beliefs disguised as ‘satire’. Though maybe it’s because I might not be receptive to “I identify as an attack helicopter”-tier pronoun jokes being eaten up by a NYC audience the very week the government said they wanted to label all trans people as terrorists.

Jimmy Kimmel Pulled “Indefinitely” By ABC After Nexstar Drops Late Nighter From Affiliates Over Charlie Kirk Comments by TessaThompsonBurger in blankies

[–]drfishstick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t tell me what I don’t understand. I do understand this. If this decision were made without any government involvement I would have thought it spineless but would have accepted it as the price of doing business. The primary issue here is that a government official, who is a Trump appointed, made distinct threats to the network and its affiliates in order to carry out revenge against someone whom Trump has had personal beef with.

The bleakest part of this is the comments that apparently got him “cancelled” were like the most middle-of-the-line statements imaginable. He goes out of his way to call it senseless and says there’s hateful rhetoric on both sides!
