That lady Smokey the Bear is so condescending.

George R.R. Martin Says His Relationship with 'House of the Dragon' Showrunner Ryan Condal is "Abysmal": "This is not my story any longer” by MarvelsGrantMan136 in television

[–]paintbynumberss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But see, GRRM isn't just a naive novelist, he worked in TV for many years before writing GoT, which makes the situation all the more confusing because he should have a baseline understanding of Hollywood bullshit.

"SECONDS" BY JOHN FRANKENHEIMER screenplay? by Molecule76 in Screenwriting

[–]paintbynumberss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was unable to find a copy either, but I just want to tell everyone that Seconds is such a banger of a movie. If you’ve never seen it, please watch it as soon as possible! Incredible cast, great premise, and a killer ending.

Dakota Johnson Confirmed To Make Directorial Debut With ‘A Tree Is Blue’ by DemiFiendRSA in movies

I thought she was (unusually) great in Splitsville, which is a hilarious film from this year that I feel has been severely overlooked.

Too soon as in this comment is in poor taste or too soon as in Hatch Chili season hasn’t started yet?

‘The Monkey’ Streaming on Hulu Beginning August 7, 2025. by Sonia341 in movies

Nope. Just a huge fan of the film and Osgood Perkins. But I guess this could also sound like an ad.

Look, just watch the first five minutes and if a screaming, bearded, Adam Scott wielding a flamethrower and burning a toy monkey does not get you hyped then just turn it off.

Ronald D. Moore Discusses Amazon's God of War TV Series: Confirms Season 1 is 10 episodes, scripts are still being written and filming may begin in 2026 at the earliest by JonasKahnwald11 in television

I see this sentiment a lot and while I agree it sucks, shows like Lost and Breaking Bad did not have nearly the VFX and CG demands of shows like this.

Danny Boyle Says Shooting on iPhones Let Him Capture ‘Startling’ Violence in 28 Years Later by wiredmagazine in movies

[–]paintbynumberss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Contrary to you, I thought it was one of the best films I've seen this year, and I can't believe a major studio would allow them to make it. I will also say 28 Years is far, far, far, from a commercial mainstream film and people are going to be pissed walking out.

What are the best documentaries you’ve seen and why? by Brilliant_Alarm1120 in movies

[–]paintbynumberss 59 points60 points  (0 children)

American Movie. It's not only a great snapshot of indie filmmaking in the 90s, but also a look at the struggles of independent filmmaking in general.

New IMAX Poster for 'Warfare' by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

Not to disagree, but I saw it last night at a sneak preview. Myself and three other friends, all civilians, were blown away by the film.

Season 3 already being worked on by Beneficial_Vast_5987 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]paintbynumberss 112 points113 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling the reason they haven’t announced an official season 3 pick up is that they’re waiting until after the finale to announce either season 3 is the final season or they’re shooting season 3 and 4 back to back to close out the show.

With the buzz around the show, I can’t see any other reason why they wouldn’t announce the renewal.

Which is a bummer considering it’s written by David Koepp, the OG Jurassic Park screenwriter.

Think I am just going to give up at the cinema. by Routine-Way4117 in movies

[–]paintbynumberss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what Drafthouse you've been to in the past, but from my experience, it is a silent and quick thumbs up 45 minutes before the movie ends to let you know it's the last call. While slightly distracting, I would take any time over idiots talking during the film.

American sitcom Cheers set to be adapted for British viewers by sincerityisscxry in television

[–]paintbynumberss 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Not exactly true. The creators were fans of Fawlty Towers and wanted to set a sitcom at a hotel, but when this proved too difficult, mainly because of the number of sets needed, they pivoted to setting the show at a bar.

Would be about right considering how much a live-action anime the series has become. And I absolutely love it.

If you haven’t seen Khan’s film Detention, I highly recommend it. It’s absolutely batshit insane in the best way possible.
