A brief history of SCARY MOVIE
Scary Movie was the original title for the Kevin Williamson's SCREAM. Harvey Weinstein changed the name to SCREAM, and used SCARY MOVIE for the Wayans film.
Harvey owned the rights, and the Wayans quit in 2001 when they didn't get a raise.
25 years later, Wayans worked out a deal with the new Miramax, having nothing to do with the Weinsteins, and we have a new movie.

Shelley Duvall as Olive Oyl in POPEYE (1980) is one of those castings that borders on the surreal. The voice, the mannerisms, the look. It’s less like watching an actor play a character and more like watching a cartoon somehow wander into live-action.

PLANET OF THE APES (1968) turned 58 this year.
Its legendary ending wasn’t in the original novel. The filmmakers created it for the movie, delivering one of the most iconic twists in cinema history. 🗽🎬
Mi ricordo ancora i prezzi di certi giocattoli, nei negozi o nelle pubblicità su “Topolino”., 50/60 anni fa. Mi ricordo anche quelli che non sono riuscito a farmi comprare. Questa credo sia l’unica riflessione che sono in grado di elaborare oggi.
Terrence Malick's "Days of Heaven" (1978) wasn't a commercial success: its box office gross of $3,446,749 was only slightly more than $3 million, the amount it cost to make the film. Charles Bluhdorn, who ran Gulf + Western, the parent company of Paramount, was so impressed with the movie that he offered $1 million for Malick's next project, no matter what the movie was.
Malick accepted—even though he was worn out. However, since Malick was exhausted and bruised after filming "Days of Heaven", he retreated to Paris with his girlfriend, Michie Gleason. It took 20 years for him to make his next film, "The Thin Red Line" (1998).

Set in the final years of the Risorgimento, Visconti’s classic is a key link between the neorealist grit of his early work and the increasingly grand-scale historical spectacles to come.
