since the oscars are today here’s a reminder that these films deserved a lot more love from the academy

Asians actually swept this year, I really thought we’d never see the day

They asked some of the 2023 Oscar nominated animation directors to draw their characters getting an oscar and it’s so cute 🥹

every rejection, every disappointment

[kuri @authorkurikuri]

it’s so funny to me when writers use the term “almond eyes” to mean “east asian” because like. i don’t know about other countries in asia but at least japan has a boatload of terms to describe eye shape. for example, here are some fairly common terms:

everyone else writing a Disney+ Star Wars show: “the thesis of my show is I played with action figures as a kid and now I get to make my favorite characters do cool things :)”

Here's a thread of my most read pieces from my PRACTICAL SCREENWRITING substack. I came to this line of work as a bit of an outsider. My goal is to share some things I've learned over the last 10+ years to fellow outsiders trying to break in. (Tho all are welcome, of course.)

@DanielleNicki NIGHTMARISH
Feature/Horror+ComingofAge/Matilda meets Suspiria
Logline: A gifted teen moves to a small town to escape ghosts of her past only to discover a personal connection of its urban legend monster with its trail of ghosts and involving body and blood.

Netflix so weird the guy who made Coraline (Henry Selick) a literal horror HIT and Jordan Peele a current horror legend worked together on Wendell & Wild. And has a cast like Angela Bassett, Peele himself AND Key, and Lyric Ross as the main. Why would you not be promoting this?
