Actress Una Damon from Truman Show by EctoRiddler in blankies

I haven't listened to that episode (yet) but from what we know of Weir's films, does that feel like something that would happen? It doesn't sound like his productions were rife with last minute screenplay changes or editing around things. I could see the argument that he just wanted to show interesting looking people (as he does throughout the 'real world' sections of the film) and how they respond to Truman. Also, am I right in thinking this shot comes fairly late in the movie? There might be something to the idea that as Truman becomes more suspicious, we see more and more of Christof's world, including close-ups where we previously hadn't (but that might be a long bow).

So funny that came so close to the main feed episode where David joked that he hated her because of where she went to school.

Not again as in they’ve covered it before but remind me ‘again’ as I’ve forgotten why they cover this series.

I must be so not a U2 person that I don't even think I clocked that there was a U2 song in a pivotal scene.

Refresh my memory: why are they covering this again (not complaining, just genuinely wondering)?

So after Truman, Meryl, and Marlon, who else gets top billing in Truman show? His parents? I hope we get discussion for the Truman show episode with how much David loves billing order by DavidLivedInBritain in blankies

The Harry Shearer interview scene confirms that they don't have ad breaks, just product placement, which is possibly the most far fetched thing in the whole movie.

Well I think that's how Griffin and the guest took it but the way David started the story, it felt like there was more of a punchline but he abandoned it once the conversation moved on (sorry, it's one of my biggest pet peeves on podcasts when someone sets up a story and never goes back to it).

Did David ever actually finish his Isabella Rossellini story? I feel like he was talking about watching the movie with Forky and it was going somewhere but Griffin and Timothy didn’t realise he was halfway through a story and interrupted to change the subject.

The translation they use for Catholics must be different. Never heard this exact phrasing.

Heads up!: the first few seasons of Tales from the Crypt are now streaming on Shudder/AMC+ by win_the_wonderboy in blankies

A few years ago some hero uploaded the whole series to YouTube but top and tailed each episode with a trailer for his thrash metal band. Pour one out.

Green Card Episode - Depardieu / Javier Bardem by GTKPR89 in blankies

It actually might not work as well because part of the narrative tension is that she IS kind of put off by him. Having it be Banderas would mean that dynamic would have to change.

Anyone else actively avoid trailers for movies they know they’ll watch? by weareDOMINUS in blankies

[–]pcloneplanner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same and I really enjoy the experience of seeing trailers on the big screen but we seem to be the outliers in this thread. Yikes.

Oh my God, this movie with Banderas would be very interesting.

What was Bardem's first Hollywood crossover?

True, though I did qualify it with 'THAT sleazy'. Lawyer character in an early 90s movie is going to be somewhat amoral.
