The name of my first production company was 8th Dimension Films. Fellow nerds over 40 should get the reference. We even had a logo which I recently found in a box beside a watermelon.

YouTube video by After Skool Is AI Apocalypse Inevitable? - Tristan Harris

AI is not inevitable. There is a difficult path where we can still avoid the pitfalls. Now, it unfortunately depends on the actions of the laziest species on the planet, but hey... I'm still pulling for humanity. So is Tristan Harris as you'll see in this video. It has fun cartoons, too!

Bob's on a Sunday...

Sure, it's Halloween season, but I'm seeing signs that Christmas will be even scarier. Behold the advent of BEEF!!

I looked in his eyes, Jason!!

YouTube video by Offline with Jon Favreau Jon Favreau RIPS Trump’s Government Shutdown Which Will Make American Healthcare More Expensive

This is a concise summary of all the current administration has done to American citizens. If after watching, you find you outright object to more than two things, a government shutdown will start to make sense. Listen and decide for yourself.

My cousin found a script from my youth (written in the old TV script format). It was called "Night Terrors". We actually shot most of it. On Super 8. Sadly the footage is lost... for now.

We are beyond excited that "Bob Gurr: Living By Design " is an Official Selection of The Newport Beach Film Festival . Come join us on October 19th!

Today I'm on the lookout for things I've never noticed before... like this diving helmet from 20,000 Leagues in the Jungle Cruise queue.

Got my late morning Walt as well...

First mission accomplished...

The film doesn't have an American release date yet, but it will soon. When it does. definitely go see it with an audience.

And a big congratulations to my friend Chris Tonick who was the editor. He made it all tight like a tiger.

The mind blowing intricacy of the fight choreography is actually beautiful, like a dance. I even got a touch misty at some of the character moments.

Last night, I saw Kenji Tanigaki's THE FURIOUS. It was a shot of pure adrenaline infused martial arts action. Just what I needed.

Why didn't he just switch to the other escalator? The one to his right was going up just fine. They can't even do basic problem solving.

Henry Jaglom, Indie Director of ‘Always’ and ‘Last Summer in the Hamptons’, Dies at 87 Henry Jaglom, the indie filmmaker who directed films including "Always" and "Last Summer in the Hamptons," has died. He was 87.

One of the original indie filmmakers has left us. Henry Jaglom's films may not be to everyone's taste, but like Cassavettes, he was essential to cinema existing beyond the studio system.

Ooo! I found this gem the other day. Now it's in the collection.

The war between the holidays is underway at Lowes. Who will win?

Hark! Halloween cometh.

So what kind of hit would Disney /ABC take if they told Nexstar and Sinclair to f*#k off and air static?

Which he? With any luck you’ll get to kiss a lot of strangers… and quite the rap sheet.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing? I don't even know anymore. Seems good-ish.

I believe there's a movie based on this book coming soon. Directed by Chloé Zhao.

YouTube video by Pod Save America BREAKING: Jimmy Kimmel PULLED OFF AIR After Trump Administration Pressure

This is the best summation of what happened with Jimmy Kimmel and it illustrates this fact... Brendan Carr, chairman of the FCC, is a thug doing his boss baby's bidding. Sure the networks are showing a lack of spine, but this is pure Trumpism in action as it was with Colbert before.

Halloween is a little less than a month & 1/2 away. Better start decorating.

My first reaction as well.
