Article Comment – Infographic: Cameras and Lenses Used to Shoot Sundance 2018 Movies

I agree Benton.
No film school still has some really great articles, but it does seem to lean more and more toward the "indie" film crowd. That sort of uppity edgy arthouse festival crowd of films that have budgets most of us could only dream of and even A list actors sometimes.
Personally I'm more interested in the Joe or Jane building a spaceship in their backyard out of PVC pipe and shooting a feature for $5,000-$15,000 with their buddies on a GH4. Things that are actually within the realm of something I'm capable of doing myself.
If I see that an indie film is shot on an Alexa I zone out, because I know the budget for the rental alone is well beyond what I would have as a budget for an entire feature.
So glossing over the other cameras is a sort of subtle nose up in the air to all the other indie filmmakers who aren't part of the cool kids club at Sundance.

Article Comment – These Are George R.R. Martin's Most Favorite Fantasy and Sci-Fi Films

The Lawnmower Man is underrated. It's not good in the classical sense of good (because it's cheesy) but the concept it presented at the time was solid. I own three copies of it on VHS, two still in the wrapper and a copy on DVD. The Directors Cut, which is the only version worth its salt is sadly only available on VHS. I've met a few others (in real life) who also feel the same way about the movie.
