Article Comment – Why Did Charlize Theron Want Protection from Tom Hardy on the 'Fury Road' Set?

She felt threatened and vulnerable.....fair enough, he's always come across like a knob but your own 'concerns' kind of become like a self-fulfilling prophecy if you think you can mouth off with......

"fine the fucking cunt a hundred thousand dollars for every minute that he’s held up this crew"

and not have to then defend it....and not necessarily in a fist fight......but not like a passive regressive ar$ehole or knitting circle hopeful either!

Article Comment – The Story Behind Ford Sponsoring an Airing of 'Schindler's List'—Despite Henry Ford's Legacy

"At the time it was shot, many people across the globe did not know about the Holocaust"

Are you serious or just talking about the latest crop of youth with all the deliberate history-lacking (and ideo-think) while so focussed on their narcissism and priority to be liked?......This was a umm 'story' looking for a story..... in something where folks appeared to actually be doing something positive (despite the corporate interests) ........at least we got a reminder of Ford's nasty and stupid bigotry!

Article Comment – Why Does 'Fight Club' Have a New Ending in China?

Why?

Because they're REALLY creepy control-freak communists who can't handle anything which might challenge the creepy and controlling narrative and reality they hope to enforce on folks!

No story necessary, just a sad, sad laugh!

Article Comment – Disney Responds to Peter Dinklage's 'Snow White' Remarks

"consulting with members of the dwarfism community"

That's kind of the problem of putting folks into boxes while trying to tell and sell yourself something pretty!

Is there an organised dwarfism community?...... or do they just mean "we spoke to a different dwarf than you for our hoped-for credibility tick-box"?

They're shameless in intention and then in justification while likely bigoted themselves and now over-compensating (like a catholic confessional) for their shameless and self-serving/seeking dopamine fix...... now with a 'carry-on regardless' blinded-eyes option...... to themselves mostly!

They're now telling an actual dwarf that he's wrong and they're right about dwarves because they're a bigger corporation who once spoke to one.

It's all a bit tragically sad......glad they're at least proud of themselves for being able to hire a Latino girl to help highlight their own regressive progressiveness!

Article Comment – What Is Screen Direction, and Why Is It So Important?

Just use the George Lucas method and shoot everyone on a greenscreen so that you can then make them jump out of any scene to the left or right and appear in the next scene from the bottom or top of frame, screw planning, we'll fix it in post!

Article Comment – James Cameron and Denis Villeneuve Tell You What Movies Look Like in the Future

How about just telling some decent and original stories instead.....rather than being so caught up on world building which has just become a desperation-checkbox like those over but strangely under thought (or distracted elsewhere) 'story committees' and show 'bibles' (and tech-ing!) but now like a messy hand movement and pants moment while so hoping to convince (or compensate for the lacking elsewhere!)

I liked Dune but then watched the Lynch failure afterwards which was far more original and felt like far less of a stock-library/iconic-shot-collection based film even if dated and just a bit bat$hit!
