Sketchy guy in trenchcoat with DVDs: “Hey man. C’mere. I got the best shit in town. I got Park Chan Wook and Gaspar Noé. 20 bucks. C’mon I don’t have all fuckin day.” #tariffs #filmsky #scriptsky

One Battle After Another is a heavy favorite for the coveted “Low Effort Halloween costume” award this October. #filmsky #scriptsky #onebattleafteranother

There are prob military briefings where they’re showing pictures of Portland terrorists and it’s just dudes that work at a craft brewery #portland

Gonna shoot my movie in DaguerroVision, I just want all that detail that we had in the 1850s. #filmsky #scriptsky

Say what you want about movie fans, but between them, video game fans and music fans I think we’re the least bad option. #filmsky #scriptsky

I humbly submit this proposal to change the crew position “Best Boy” to something less infantilizing. I think we do “Best Buddy”. #filmsky #scriptsky

Being cringe is the price of entry. Sorry. #filmsky #scriptsky

New filmmakers are hilarious and tragic because they’ve spent 20+ years watching movies and dishing out criticism. Then they make something and find out all at once if they can take it. #filmsky #scriptsky

When the camera pans too far and crew realizes they’re in shot. #filmsky #scriptsky

“Hey babe, are you a film festival? Because when you rejected me, you pretended like you thought about it.” #filmsky #scriptsky

Breaking: Luca Guadagnino eyeing remake of “les cousins dangereux” #filmsky #scriptsky

*Old man voice*: in my day studios didn’t get “acquired by tech”. They dissolved because their movies went three times over their budget, like a real company. #filmsky #scriptsky

Entertainment industry be like: 2015: “Start in the mailroom. Pay your dues.” 2025: “Corp 1 swallows Corp 2. Hundreds laid off. Industry evaporates.” #filmsky #scriptsky

No one gets excited to engage in art that the artist self-promotes. Something about it just kills excitement. Plants a seed that it’s lesser or homemade, and that you engage to “support”. It’s homework. Yet at the ground level, that’s really all we have to work with. Yeugh. #filmsky #scriptsky

The AMC Nicole Kidman opening is even shorter now. Still don’t think we’re in a recession? #filmsky #scriptsky

The Script Of Theseus. It’s where…. No. The fruit’s hanging too low. I’m sorry I even brought it up. What am I doing #filmsky #scriptsky

My dog, when we go up a small hill:

Whenever I start a story I ask myself “What can I add that’s constructive to our understanding of humanity”? Whenever I make a social media post I uh don’t do that. #filmsky #scriptsky

All I want to do is contribute to American culture in a lasting way the exact form that I want and have every ensuing effect be positive. Like jeez I don’t see how that’s such a big ask. #filmsky #scriptsky

Irreverent. A word that apparently only exists to describe one out of every two shows on Netflix. #filmsky #scriptsky

Hey Bluesky! I just finished the fifth draft of a monster movie script! I’d say that’s pretty dang cool! 😎 #filmsky #scriptsky

TV is wild with how much leeway people give it. Nobody says “you just have to get through the first 40 minutes of this movie and then it gets good.” #filmsky #scriptsky

“Man [CREATIVE INDUSTRY] is rough these days. I’m toying around with making a change to [WORSE CREATIVE INDUSTRY].” #filmsky #scriptsky

Every time I write a sick burn for a character to say it makes up for a time I couldn’t think of one in real life. #scriptsky #filmsky

Having a filmmaker friend must suck. You can put an album on in the background and ignore it, and nobody trusts anybody to start and finish a book anyway. With film you have to lose two dedicated hours just so your friend doesn’t get passive aggressive with you. #filmsky #scriptsky

In my early twenties I wrote a deep space sci fi fully expecting to be able to make it. Now I won’t even write a scene with a person eating food because it’s too hard to shoot. #filmsky #scriptsky

“You can’t watch a movie first thing in the morning” is book people propaganda. #filmsky #scriptsky

A podcaster editing their own podcast is poetic because they have to reckon with the fact that this is how they sound to everyone else. #filmsky #podcasting

Old filmmakers: “I need to make this one last movie to leave behind something that really matters” Their kids: #filmsky #scriptsky

“Why would I want to leave my comfort zone? I’ve got cold drinks, video games, and I’m mean to myself every few minutes.”

James Gunn really likes Foxy Shazam I guess. I mean, I do too. #foxyshazam #peacemaker

My least favorite thing about movies is they expect me to learn a bunch of characters’ names for a two hour story. I’m still shaky on my neighbors and I wave at them every day. #filmsky #scriptsky

Screenwriters are like gym rats, we should really talk like them more. “Nah bro, I can’t bulk that up right now, I’m in the middle of a cut.” #scriptsky #filmsky

“Why are you writing long form content? You should be posting short form content so we don’t forget about your long form content.” #writing #scriptsky #filmsky

The only reason I like horror is that every moment I spend being scared is a moment that I’m not feeling whatever all this is. #filmsky #scriptsky #horror

Is anyone out there actually maxing out their AMC A List? #filmsky #scriptsky

“Elevated Horror was a pretentious trend from the 2010s where horror stories had self-important trash like characters and themes.” #filmsky #scriptsky #horror

Eadweard Muybridge invented the moving image with the galloping horse sequence. The reason you don’t see it on your feed is because he didn’t make up someone to get mad at in the first three seconds of the video. #filmsky #scriptsky

No, they don’t have “weird theater kid energy”. They’re just happy. #filmsky #theater

I’d like to see films that depict the future more accurately. Where everything looks the same except we’re all sadder and there’s yet another useless roomba thing on the streets. #filmsky #scifi

I Know That You Turned Pretty Last Summer #filmsky #horror

Why do slasher movies have to cast 18-21 year olds? Why can’t we have a bunch of divorced dads on a depressing boys trip getting picked off one by one? #filmsky #scriptsky

Today in insane world building: I’m rewatching all the Final Destinations. In the third one Mary Elizabeth Winstead wants to prove that artifacts in all (?) photos predict the type of death the subject has. To do this, she whips out pictures of Abe Lincoln and 9/11. #filmsky

Apparently going from a sketch comic to a horror director is now a desire path in Hollywood. #filmsky #scriptsky

It’s absolutely nuts that the best argument for AI that I’ve heard is “it’s here whether you like it or not, better adjust to it.” #filmsky #scriptsky

It’s not selling out if nobody wants you in the first place. #filmsky #scriptsky

I’m at this resort where the staff always smile at you, ask you questions like where you’re from and how your day is, politely herd you in the right direction, and not say anything when you do something really stupid. If you were curious what it’s like to be a director on set. #filmsky #scriptsky

Subtle ways to mess with your filmmaker friend. “I watched your movie! It was in a hotel room though, so I couldn’t turn off motion smoothing.” #filmsky #scriptsky

I’ve poured hours into this metroidvania game Laika: Aged Through Blood, where I play as a coyote on a motorcycle. My brother is a father of two. #gaming #laikaagedthroughblood

I jokingly asked my wife “do you think I’m a horror nerd or an art bro.” She immediately said “Art bro. You try so hard to be this horror nerd. You don’t try to be an art bro at all.” I can’t get this out of my head. #filmsky #scriptsky
