I stayed up late last night trying to put together something to honor Tony Stella’s passing, what it meant to work with him, and all he meant to so many of us in the broader film community. A true legend, and an absolutely heartbreaking loss.

We launched the campaign for First In Fright: The FANGORIA Compendium six months ago. I was scared to death we wouldn't make our $25k funding goal in the 30 days provided. We made it in under an hour. Since then, we've blown past every stretch goal we set for this sucker. It ends today, at noon PST.

RIP Tony Stella, one of my favorite working poster artists that we had out here. His work always evoked the same beautiful, magical quality that you got out of Bob Peak’s artwork. Real gut punch to hear that he’s gone. 🙏🏾💔

a wonderful experience, probably one of my favorite actual productions at ILM - a very small team hand picked and headed by John Knoll, each of us did at least two things (for me it was lighting and compositing) and Gaeta/Wachowskis being super supportive and allowing us to go crazy. Some of mine:

My first Star Trek entry to Cinema Daze is the best of the Star Trek films because it is the film that forces Kirk to face his own mortality and the mortality of those he loves. Review: cinemadaze.com/star-trek-ii... #StarTrek #MovieSky #FilmSky #Cinema

Redford was one of the exceedingly rare filmmakers working in Hollywood that understood the power of quiet filmmaking.

Ari Aster’s EDDINGTON feels more dead-on by the day. So does our @letterboxd.social interview: “Everybody has lost track of a bigger world outside of themselves. They only see the dimensions of the small world they believe in, and distrust anything that contradicts this small bubble of certainty.”
