Guillermo del Toro: “If you’re not operating on an instinctive level, you’re not an artist. Reason over emotion is bullshit, absolute bullshit. We suffocate ourselves in rules. I find fantasy liberating.” #screenwriting
Unpopular opinion maybe, but I’m genuinely enjoying #MonsterTheEdGeinStory. Yeah, it takes liberties, but folding details of Gein-inspired characters back into his own story? Inspired move. And I lost it when they did the TCM reenactment.
@DavidOndrej1 You sure? Several studies have shown that video games can be beneficial for the brain, particularly in teaching resilience... I've been a non-gamer for decades and picked up an hour a day habit and am notably calmer.
@dalepartridge Do you realize BJJ enables people to defend themselves regardless of size? Males are typically 60% stronger than females. Learning BJJ is a MASSIVE protective advantage for women. Tae Bo won't save her life.
Hey man, terribly sorry to hear about your cat. I just lost mine on Sunday and my god does it hurt. So few people really understand the effect that cats have on our lives. It's so profound to understand that you're there for their entire lives but they only can be there for part of yours but during that time, they can have a profound impact. Hope you're grieving ok. I recommend doing anything and everything that conjures up your emotions around them; write a letter to them, look at photos, even though it hurts, the catharsis is so helpful. Best to you.
You know how crazy this weekend was? We’re the #1 movie in the country and you won’t see national television spots promoting it. Unrated. Indie. Anarchy. #Terrifier3
David Bowie had gone to a private showing of his 1987 movie Labyrinth. Afterward, he’d have a meet-and-greet with a group of children. He met them and had a ball, but one boy was shy and withdrawn.
So Bowie asked the organizers of the event if he could talk to the boy by himself, seeing as though he was “so shy."
The kid wasn’t actually shy — he was autistic. Bowie told the kid he was also scared, too, of everything. He was, in fact, only able to face other people because of a “magic mask” he would always wear. It just so happened the mask was ‘invisible.’
He gave it to the boy. He then acted rather distressed himself and had to make another magic mask, after which he became calm, too. Bowie and the kid just hung out for thirty minutes, and it was a magical experience.
The boy later said he actually felt more confident after meeting David Bowie and receiving his “magic mask."
Bowie reminded the boy of how ‘everyone is shy and scared sometimes, and we all wear masks’. Not every celebrity as famous as Bowie would take so much time and go through such effort to put an uncomfortable kid at ease at an event.
@RobbieBanfitch BRO, you haven't seen any of these?? Go: SMILE, BARBARIAN, WHEN EVIL LURKS then INFINITY POOL. Not necessarily in order of quality, the sequencing is more about an increasing level of insanity.
@joshstolberg Josh, so so sorry. My heart goes out to you and your family. I'm hoping the fact that it was a peaceful passing brings some comfort during this time for you and yours. I'm just so sorry man...my condolences to you all.
Nick Taylor asked so many good questions that I might have to revoke his press pass. We must have decorum! #dinnersofdeath#thelastdrivein@shudder
