Brandon Sanderson's theory on why the film industry is floundering (YouTube Short)
  • I definitely think the cycle has been broken. I'm less likely to see a movie in theatres (expensive) and so I don't see trailers on the big screen. Watching a trailer at home makes me question: Is this worth going to see on a big screen, or can I enjoy it on my TV all the same? And if I decide thatI can wait until I can get it at home I forget all about the movie until it appears on streaming or a am reminded of it and seek it out on the high seas. I think covid broke the camels back, as you mentioned. Our generation has been more decisive about movies/tv because their are so many options. With so many great things vying for my attention, I appreciate the ability to just turn something off if it doesn't suit my taste.

  • Jennifer Lawrence Murder Mystery Package ‘The Wives’ Lands At Apple; A24 To Co-Produce
  • Ever since Knives Out, I have been excited for more murder mysteries. I've been somewhat disappointed with a lot of the recent movies/tv in the genre, but I'm hoping this one can bring something different and smart!

  • He deserves better
  • They should absolutely recast Army Hammer with someone else and make another movie. The Man from UNCLE had too much going for it to fall into obscurity because just one of it's stars was a cannibal.

  • California could ban Clear, which lets travelers pay to skip TSA lines
  • I believe there was a study for the highways outside of Washington DC that had toll lanes. The fees were variable and higher during rush hour. This effectively was a small fee for the wealthy to pay in order to get to work on time and left everyone else to sit in traffic. As far as I know, the lanes still exist, but there is no variable charge.

  • Back in my day
  • My family watched the movie Clue about a million times. Can quote every line by heart. To this day, we only have to look in one another's eyes whenever a quotable opportunity comes up. "Are you trying to make me look stupid in front of the other guests?" "You don't need any help from me."

  • What's your favourite podcast at the moment?
  • I absolutely love the concept of Well There's Your Problem, but they can't get to the damn point without derailing the flow of the story with banter that I don't find entertaining. If anyone has any similar podcasts, I would appreciate a recommendation.
