You peeps are the people I expect to be well-researched and granular to contribute cases of this to me: directors who use a film to explore ideas or concepts from a film they were not allowed to make

Another one: Per a special feature on the Criterion disc of Death In Venice from either a Visconti scholar or worker for him, L'Innocente was Visconti employing his ideas and research from his unrealized adaptation of In Search Of Lost Time

Did you know Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim wrote a gay sex scene between themselves in the script for You Can See Everything to test if the A24 execs actually read it?

Obviously there are worse issues like the genocide defending and IDF shit but the Ethan Klein podcast has the most disgusting cotton candy ass production value and music, and everyone acts like the worst acting kid on a sitcom, this is actual trash

Had a dream last night that I was walking around midtown bars carrying a bar stool I stole, and one of my receipts had a server listed as Anamaria Vartolomei, but I never ran into her

Rewatching Scream… the scariest part for me now is when Sidney takes a nap while it’s still light out and then wakes up and it’s fully night

Like Elaine May said to Mike Nichols disheartened after seeing The Exorcist, which he turned down, become a sensation: “if you made it, it wouldn’t have been a hit”

Deep rich colors, velvety blacks, a symphonic score, voice acting that feels both theatrical and human, it was just so good to grow up on these dvds
There's a commentary track that said something like "The Reason the show looked good was because Japan refused to cut corners on literally anything. They would air brush the frost on Mr. Freeze's helmet EVERY single frame. They went bankrupt right after"

Lost City of Z super fan retweeted
I owe such an apology to the peoplr who sit and watch this shit nonstop. Their services have been invaluable to us this week. I DON'T feel bad and this is tremendous content
This might be the worst clip of all. Ethan Klein "jokingly" said "I cheated on my wife" multiple times all while Tamara chuckles and hides her stress laugh.

I shouldn't because this is pre-frontal lobe development discourse, but INSANE Radiohead song to have on this
Tamara has a playlist dedicated to Ethan Klein entitled “the boss” with songs by the smiths, Radiohead, and “the winner takes it all” by ABBA

I’m going to work. But help me fill this out friends. What is some of the best sound design that isn’t from a genre film (action, crime, sci fi, horror, war, western) or from a film explicitly about sound design?
