This franchise is hugely disappointing. The first two films use sign lang + a Deaf lead to drive its plot yet has never advocated for Deaf audiences in its own releases. No descriptive subtitles, really? Just pure tokenism

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

Double use of “this”. Oh well, it’s late.

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

I’m script editor on this. It’s ace. Very proud of what we’re doing for Deaf representation on this.

@BMcranty @nikanareklawyks @TinyTimOReilly @MIMI_ZIMA Of course, but divorcing the original joke from its context is a form of joking that can be viewed as mean spirited and cruel. Which has happened in this instance.

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

@TinyTimOReilly @BMcranty @MIMI_ZIMA What’s funny about it? The tweet in of itself is an indication of the lack of progress we’ve made purely because it made no attempt to explain why it was singling that person out for “memefication”. How does a joke work if it requires multiple people swooping in to explain it?

True Detective Night Country - it’s not about the investigation, but the cleaners we befriend on the journey 🥰

@kimmacaskill1 Their relatability with the characters and the interpersonal dynamics between them

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

@BFI @DisabledInTV @jackthorne Hm, this is a bit of a non-response, isn’t it? I have somewhat a rudimentary understanding of how distributors work. A film like The Killer would’ve had subtitles available for Venice courtesy of @NetflixUK. Saying there might be repeat screenings is exclusionary. @BFI

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

I can’t believe I’m doing this again a year later and it’s compelled me to break my Twitter hiatus after a year (because this place is a hellpit). But @BFI, what are you doing putting captioned screenings of films like The Killer on a Friday afternoon?

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

@OwenJBaker @BFI Yes. A lot of deaf and disabled people have jobs.

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

I’m sorry, guys, I love film. I love LFF. I think the BFI is pretty ace (despite being pissed off right now), but this is pretty… bad... You could take some pointers from what the guys over at @DisabledInTV @jackthorne have been doing with the TV Access Project.

[Daniel J. Brown @HowlingFantods2]

Oh, it gets worse, lmao.

You’ve got a captioned screening of Saltburn on Thursday 5th October at 14.45

You can see Foe on Wednesday 11th October at 11.30

And so on… I have heard rumours of smart glasses, like the NT use, but, well, tech is fallible.

A future generation of TV industry people are going to start thinking that people are linking their X account at the end of emails.
