screenshot from Pablo Ferro's title sequence for The Thomas Crown Affair, its characters' faces and bodies broken up into geometric, colorful shapes - Steve McQueen occupying the left half, with "The Thomas Crown Affair" above the shapes that contain his eyes and below his forehead

that was Will Trent's title sequence inspired by The Thomas Crown Affair. an episode with 2 storylines: a breezy resort caper inspired by '60s heist movies with a touch of Out of Sight, & in the other - a character grappling with the death of her abusive mother. unfortunately just an incredible show

lmao sorry to trash their song, it just isn't for me outside of Full Contact

It was going to be Robert Duvall

tried watching the music video for Extreme's Get the Funk Out and I was like, oh this kinda sucks. it's pure Ringo Lam magic that he makes it feel like the coolest song ever composed here.

it takes such big weird swings sometimes, I'm always surprised it's on ABC. and everyone's so lovable, which unfortunately probably makes it extra effective copaganda.

eternally it's probably Michael Mann movies and Twin Peaks, currently it's this

they assume Jim Carrey is always yelling and singing and barking like Ace Ventura

"stunts" and "yearning" also my 2 favorite genres

“direct your anger at trump not the democrats” buddy you are severely underestimating the amount of anger i have available to me

yeah the voice sounds no different compared to other interviews he's done - I think they really expect him to be operating at The Mask levels of intensity at all times

the eye color "change" is easily chalked up to lighting or color grading, and his demeanor/voice doesn't seem much different compared to his usual vibe during interviews. he's not always mugging and yelling like Ace Ventura.

I don't really want say anything at all about it, but it's also so completely, insidiously cuckoo that I feel compelled to do a PSA about blepharoplasty. and I was still shocked to receive a reply that was like "ok sure, BUT what about..."

just now finding out that there's a conspiracy theory they cloned Jim Carrey or that this is an impostor lmao. my guy aged, got a bleph and maybe some filler, who cares. grow up

"When I was young, I believed in three things: Marxism, the redemptive power of cinema, and dynamite. Now I just believe in dynamite."

damn - "Ikiru too long and boring" might actually be even more offensive than "Seven Samurai too long and boring."

exactly, there are certain thoughts that are best kept to oneself imho. and "this Kurosawa masterpiece is boring" is somewhere at the top of the list

I muted them in an attempt to be a chiller person, but... it's really bothering me so I might still hit the big block button after all

reply #1 "Of Kurosawa's films I have only seen "Rashomon", "High and Low" and Seven Samurai. I think "High and Low" is great, and "Rashomon" even better. But for all its hype, I found "Seven Samurai" to be very tedious and at least an hour too long." reply #2 "I love all 3 of those, but I do think Seven Samurai is a bit tedious and overly long. One of my favorites of his is Ikiru. It's more a of an intimate,"

it's actually not required by law to share your bad opinions about Seven Samurai with me

also important to note that the Academy Museum will be screening Cure three times in one week (May 25th, 27th, & 29th) as part of their series A Lifetime of Inspiration: Bong Joon Ho. a fucked-up masterpiece.

This reminds me of that Frankie Boyle joke about how Americans not only come to your country and kill your people, they also come back twenty years later to make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers sad.

yeah I ended up buying Way Too Many tickets I think because of that, it felt medically/therapeutically necessary

Dante worked on the Melania doc with him too 🤢

This obviously very stupid but is it also smart? We’ll talk to some liars after this break.

"Production -- Cassavetes and Martin Scorsese came up with the idea for the film together in one night,[3] and Cassavetes then further developed it on his own, inspired by Arthur Penn's movie Mickey One, The Family Rico, and Elaine May's Mikey and Nicky.[4] For a restaurant scene late in the film, Cassavetes invited a number of prominent Hollywood studio executives to play extras, but then deliberately removed all their faces from the final cut.[5] Cassell related a story of when he and Cassavetes were being robbed at gunpoint, but Cassavetes diffused the situation by offering the robber ice cream and a job in his new film (Bookie), which he accepted.[6] David Bowie sat in on much of the shoot, and is visible in some club audience footage.[7] Cassavetes had a high opinion of Bowie as an actor and held his 1983 film Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, with co-star Ryuichi Sakamoto, as one of his favorite contemporary films.[7]"

the rest of the Killing of a Chinese Bookie wiki is pretty fun, though
