I feel like skateboarding is a new sport. It was inspired by surfing but has evolved into something completely different.

Maybe if the headline was “suspect uses his mom’s car as a weapon”, otherwise it probably wasn’t one of us.

Real Men holds up very well as a low budget action comedy. Belushi building a nail gun is classic

This is totally off-topic but it just got served to me by the YT algorithm and I feel like I needed to share it with the community who might want it. So, here: A 1985 BTS of Jim Varney doing regional ads (supposedly they shot 25 a day?? Seems like BS) with this one writer/director, before the Earnest movies or even the national ads. In a weird nightly news piece that is wrapped around a studio shoot of him doing a speech from Hamlet-- but Too, too solid flesh from Act 1, not even To Be or Not To Be. Everything about this is weirdly specific. And I had to share it or else die in 10 days or something:

Trying to make SW into prestige drama is where they always seem to fail. The Mandalorian was just balanced enough to work for me as an adult, but none of the others reeled me in.

I realize now that the years don’t line up, but when I first saw the Fat Mutant I thought, “Holy shit, is that Dynamo from Running Man?”
These are the things that occupy my mind now instead of proper verb conjugation or the ability to do higher math.

There was only 1 space chase and every single other scene looked like it was shot in The Volume which is always super obvious when they use it. They've had that thing for years too. Leslie Headlund's first showrunner job so maybe she was just financially irresponsible, she did hire her wife as a lead

They brought up John Ritter real quickly and it brought to mind an 80s movies called Real Men with Ritter and Jim belushi, had anyone ever seen this? I think I watched it on YouTube years ago and thinking it was bad, don’t know if the abz has ever discussed it.
No real point except I love John Ritter.

I’ve been a hard out on Star Wars since Mandolorian Season 1. Didn’t even give the rest a chance. Watching Skeleton Crew with my 11 yo boy and my 7 yo girl and it is CRUSHING. It is absolutely pitched at a kid tone, and it makes it more watchable for me how excited they are for it. Wouldn’t watch without kids, strong recommendation to check it out for janitors with elementary-ish age kids.
Kevin Potter
2024-12-30 16:12:31 +0000 UTC
I work in tax and I don't know a ton about this type of business specifically, but enough in related areas to make an educated guess. It seems the expenditures are massive for heavy CGI on movies and tv like this, and it doesn't correlate with how good the effects look, which suggests to me they're not necessarily spending for an advantage on labor quality/quantity, or technology. I know vfx companies work their employees to death and pay them peanuts so I suspect their accounting is associating future costs and nominally related expenses with each project. I'm going to make up numbers, but I'm guessing they basically charge $100X of which $20X is actual labor, 20X is technology and overhead, $10X is profit, and $50X is treated as a production cost but is really R&D for future projects and not real costs for existing ones. Maybe if they're all PE owned there's a large amount of debt service in there as well. But spending on developing new technology is the only thing I can see justifying $100 million for effects, and I can't see it being a major cost driver for the existing movie. $100M would pay for like 200 people to spend an entire year with a great salary and very excellent hardware and software. And yet they could probably mod an Assassin's Creed game to create better vfx environments than most movies. I have to imagine most of the money is paying for engines and models that get them ready for the next project.

Currently listening while my wife is being prepped for the birth of my first child, as I'm sure the Boyz envision when making the show. Don't worry I won't let her listen for free, I'll start a new subscription for the newest action baby.

The Acolyte was legit one of the worst shows I've ever seen in every single specific part of what makes a show. Acting, writing, directing, visuals, choreo. The budget it wasted is mind blowing and there's probably something illegal going on behind the scenes cause the money certainly didn't make it to the screen.

I haven’t really enjoyed any new Star Wars for years, but I always give the first episode of anything a shot. So I didn’t have much hope for Skeleton Crew but it’s actually kinda OKAY! It’s kept me interested and Jude Law’s acting is competent.
It’s not so much a space western this time, but a space pirate story.

A grim future awaits. ‘Project 2025’ has set irreversible forces in motion, with theocracy tightening its grip. Censorship, deportations, and human rights violations will dominate, spreading pain and despair. To hope otherwise is wishful thinking.
Prepare for the worst—and worse than that.
