Hey if you are at ECCC and want something signed last-minute, I will be standing in Kaiji Tang’s signing line in the autograph area for the next 20 minutes so the kiddo can get a selfie. Bring your own sharpie
Sometimes I post stuff like this to keep from posting other thoughts I've had.

In 1988, Richard LaGravenese was writing the very first draft of what would become THE FISHER KING (1991). That script's Parry can count cards; Jack uses this to win at gambling. Then LaGravenese saw RAIN MAN do exactly that, and he junked the draft in response.
There is always another idea.
I am following 420 accounts.
I've never toked, and I still feel compelled to note

I am guessing this is what "an emotional roller coaster" looks like
And I just saw someone who could have been Mel on THE PITT.
Hmm. A good sign.
(I haven't seen SPLIT yet. I want to rewatch UNBREAKABLE first, since I last saw that in 2000.)
Good to hear. I think M. Night would be like that, too, if you were sincere.
(Don't sneak in a "so, what was your Indiana Jones idea?")
Imagine you had a chance to talk directly and honestly to Shyamalan about THE HAPPENING and your reaction to it.
How do you feel such a discussion would go?

My mind can never seem to remember that the color chartreuse is not a type of red. #ItsAYellowGreen #AYellowGreen #AYellowGreenITryToTellMe
He wasn't, but there was a guy in the terminal I saw out of the corner of my eye and I was briefly certain he was in Anakin Skywalker's REVENGE OF THE SITH outfit.
If he had, I would've said "Impressive. Most impressive."
And I love that you had that great experience in 1988.
What's an early memory of going to a movie and just being blown away, by both the movie and the experience? Something that confirmed to you that this can be awesome?
Mentally preparing to get to sleep early, because Sundays I leave for work early and DST makes it seem even earlier.

We could all have a pretty great Tribute to Screenwriters Who Just Died triple-feature weekend and watch Bullitt, The Thomas Crown Affair, and The Candidate. Nobody would regret a minute of it.
RIP Alan Trustman and Jeremy Larner.

Yep, even in Portland. (I've known her since 2010.)
I hear ya. (Do better, guys.)
Hey, go hit up Tokyo Sando this weekend. Some butt wipe in Indiana stole their entire business plan and has them pretty shaken. And as Portland food cart pros we ride at dawn to support them and their business while they handle this copyright scandal.🤙♥️
So, yeah. Just know that even the women in your life who are doing okay are not doing okay. Please pay attention to how to move through the world, so you can help build a new one instead of this one, where women are forced to carry the burdens & do the work that too many men won't. /end
My friend Mary-Suzanne loves the 1985 film BRAZIL, bought the Criterion DVD of it and started watching the doc about the efforts to keep Universal from releasing its bad reedit of the film. She stopped the doc in 10 minutes. "It's just guys yelling at each other."
MASSIVELY resent struggling to find the meaning in some turgid, repetitive text only to realize it's "A.i." bullshit that no one wrote and that contains no meaning.
Fuck billionaire-owned "A.i." companies forever for WASTING MY TIME, which means STEALING FROM MY ACTUAL LIFE.
It’s ANOTHER morning! They keep happening…
