Chris Griffin

I'm a professional lighting technician in film/tv, a former filmmaker, and a screenwriter. I love stories that are "crude but clever".

@ZubyMusic I also like to point out the positives of social media to people. All forms of communication came with negatives, but ultimately, they were an asset. I can't imagine waiting months to receive a letter from a loved one.

@MarioNawfal I have been reading your posts for over a year, and it somehow feels like a lot longer. I appreciate the news you present, especially in a time when legacy media has been declining in both accuracy and integrity.

Sometimes, I wish I was more like my father. He's always been more on top of things than I am. I'm so very impulsive, forgetful, and distractible.

My dad was always there for me as a kid, teenager, and young adult, and I'm grateful for that.

I had a lot of struggles in my youth, but also a lot of fond memories, and opportunities that many other kids didn't have. I learned a lot from "Boy Scouts" and playing sports, even though I was terrible at sports. My dad encouraged me to take diving classes, which I enjoyed a lot. He attended multiple improv shows I performed in, and encouraged my creativity.

I love my dad.

I also miss both of my Grandfathers, who have both been gone for far too long.

@Itssan17 I saw it with friends, and we all enjoyed it. I'd blame Kevin Smith and Netflix with weakening the brand with "Revelations". Once a brand suffers enough damage, it can be hard to bring it back.

@MarkJCarney Are they empowered to enforce the law against Carney's acts of hate? Can they arrest the Prime Minister?

@mattvanswol That sucks. I visited Columbia, SC, last November, and it seemed like such a peaceful place.

@DavidSpade @grok, did this already come out, or is it a future release?

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

@CBSNews They presented both sides, so I appreciate that. The journalist interviewing people has a calming energy about her too.

Life isn't black and white. I relate to people's concerns about the potential of male perverts invading women's spaces, but this clearly wasn't that. I'm sure it's tough for dads taking their young daughters to use the bathroom, but also mothers taking their young sons to use the bathroom too. The debate around proper bathroom usage went astray a long time ago.

@WolfofX These are the kinds of stories we need to hear more of.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

@mattvanswol Matt, I appreciate you putting the word out about these serious issues. Just make sure to take care of yourself, and not let all the terrible things in the world tear you down.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

@Yoda4ever That brought a smile to my face.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

I'm glad I'm capable of being humble, and willing to learn from others. I don't know everything.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

Sometimes, I beat myself up over writing so many screenplays, particularly ones that are unlikely to ever get made. Then I remember how therapeutic writing them was.

During hard times, when I was out of work and broke, writing was a cheap way to entertain myself; it kept me sane. Writing got ideas out of my head, let me process emotions, and allowed me to laugh at myself.

Hosting table reads, and watching people enjoy and laugh at my work, was also a pleasurable experience. A writer friend once told me, that my online table reads helped her get through the pandemic.

I could have spent the same time playing video games or watching movies, but I spent much of that time writing, which worked for me.

The saw dust is a nice touch.

Keanu Reeves will star as the lead in Masashi Kawamura's stop-motion animated film ‘HIDARI’.

The film will be a feature adaption of this short:

Every once in a while, while browsing "X", I'll see posts on a teenage girl who was shot in the head during a school shooting, and was put into a coma. She's been out of the coma for a while, and each new post shows her gradual recovery. Seeing a post of her smiling today, brought me a moment of happiness.

I hope she recovers as fully as possible, and lives a good life.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

@JesseBWatters I hope this deal works.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

@DavidFShultz I was far too harsh, and responded out of anger. I apologize. I went too far.

[Chris Griffin @Angrybearfilms2]

@EricLDaugh @grok, what happened to Mitch McConnel?
