Les than 8 minutes into the movie, and TOP GUN: MAVERICK hooked me with this exchange. God, I love this movie.

Caught my first old man, wild, rogue eyebrow hair this morning. Feels like a right of passage.

This is amazing!

You: the perfect TV opening credits sequence does not exist. Me:

My commission list is open, hmu if you like, here's some recent examples! Shares are appreciated!

My god, the elevator fight scene in this week’s WILL TRENT is incredible. Haven’t seen anything this fun and inventive on a network procedural in a long time.

For years, @pqcomics.bsky.social and I have been quietly building this series. Here’s your chance to see how the first half of it plays out by helping us get over the finish line… #comics

Writers, don't be like me. My big blindspot is I always, always get too preoccupied with a story's PLOT and need to constantly remind myself that I should spend that time focusing on the CHARACTERS. A fun, twisty plot that logically holds together doesn't matter if the characters aren't engaging.

A lot of TRUE LIES hasn’t aged well, but the bathroom fight to horse vs. motorcycle chase sequence is still fantastic.

Slept in my Huey Lewis shirt and woke up wanting a new drug.

Holy shit, MIKE & NICK & NICK & ALICE is fucking fantastic. What a ride, @bdgrabinski.bsky.social! It’s so smart and funny and like nothing else out there. Such a wonderful mix of sci-fi, comedy, violence, and even some feels.

Happy Rockford day to all who celebrate!

A great book from a great dude! Check it out!

housing is more expensive now, but also a lot safer. this kind of home was considered cream of the crop in the 1980s

I mean, would you put REED: [insert elaborate science-ish explanation here] …in a script? I hope not. TZHOW TZHOW TZHOW! That’s fine too. Make SFX the fuck up. You’re the writer. It’s your damn job.

Saw a promo for the new Taylor Sheridan series (The Madison) on Paramount+ this morning. Always here for the Pfeiff, but I have to ask, real quick: Did Taylor Sheridan just remake Everwood without The WB-esque charm?

I know this has circulated with alacrity recently, so you may have already seen it, but if you haven't... WOW BOY HOWDY it's the most useful thing. Thank you cardcatalogforlife.substack.com -- this is a very very very helpful public service: cardcatalogforlife.substack.com/p/google-has...

The real theme of the modern age is "Nobody Wants This". AI, ICE in airports, ICE in general, the Iran War, data centers sending actual cities wiht people into blackouts -- "nobody" wants this. And yet here we are.

I’m embarrassed to admit it took me this long to watch THE BLACK PHONE, but my god I loved it. And as a GenX kid, the period details were amazing. My dad was a volunteer firefighter and worked for Motorola, so he had one of these radios in his car when I was a kid. 1/2

On this day in 1984, Tales of the Teen Titans #44 hit newsstands, and Dick Grayson gave up his long-time identity of Robin and took up the mantle of Nightwing!

This is my last week in the Creature Commandos writers room. It’s been super fun to play in this new DC universe. Now I’m on the lookout for my next adventure.

RIP, Eric Overmyer. Wrote on The Wire. Co-created Treme. Created Bosch. One of the few writer/producers, both working with David Simon and on his own, who actually knew how to make the "every season of our show is a Novel For Television" structure work.

Every writer hits "The Rewrite Suck." It's the moment you look at something you've been working on for months and think: "I can't figure this out. This sucks. I suck." I'm a working professional screenwriter. It happens on every project I've ever worked on. Here's how to survive it. 🧵

Really feeling Piper’s judgment as I procrastinate.

Remember: three big winners at tonight’s Oscar’s - Sinners, Weapons, and One Battle After Another - all came from WB and probably never would’ve gotten a greenlight from WB’s new business daddy, Paramount.
