Enjoyed Obsession last night. Good film. Not complicated. It is trying to be fun. That was its only agenda. And the theater was full on a Monday night. Lower budgets + fun. I’ve said it before, but this is the way.

A 26-year-old director made ‘OBSESSION’ in just one month on a reported $750K budget. Now it's targeting $300–330M worldwide. That's the kind of success story Hollywood dreams about.

There are only two kinds of movie scripts. 1. I want to spend two years on this. 2. Others.

@TurnbullMartin Interesting that now it is called the Tower and has a “tower” sign. But it’s an Apple Store. That shot must have been taken from my building at 849 S Broadway. A

Final Draft is almost certainly the worst software that is used by a significant number of people.

Man have times changed. If you suggested that title or topic 9 yrs ago, you’d have been publicly executed.

On voting day, 60% of the vote was counted and announced. 4 days later, only 64% of the vote is counted and announced. There is no target date for completion. In many other countries, they count all the votes on voting day and they announce the winner that day.

‘BACKROOMS’ director Kane Parsons says he would get “no enjoyment” out of using generative AI on any project — “It defeats the purpose entirely for me.” “I think I'm in the same boat as most well-adjusted people. If I could snap my fingers and make generative Al disappear

If you’re in spec scripts, pivot to spec scripts + online trailers and in-universe content.

This began as a thought experiment and ended with a shocking conclusion: Obsession has already outperformed the entire 2020–2025 Sundance U.S. Dramatic Competition lineup combined. STORY HERE: open.substack.com/pub/hollywoodg…

@kjh1138 @jpodhoretz Could be either. I think it would just be less thorough than storyboards. Just trying to convey the vibe rather than getting every shot.

THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN (1971) didn't have a traditional screenplay. It had the first example of a CINESCRIPT: an amplified screenplay that combined text and printed visuals to communicate the intended visual language before production began.
