deadandimmortal asked: So, now that I'm looking at developing my film, I noticed that there's a place in Illinois that develops super 8 called BPS Film Processing Lab. I know you recommended Dwayne's Photo, but have you had any bad experiences or used BPS? I only ask because Dwayne's doesn't work with the Tri-X, and I'm loooookin' around for a place that does. Because I have a...

bezdan asked: I'm up for anything, really. I'm just layman that's curious what an actual filmmaker's favorites would be. In interest of being less vague, how about the top films that have had an emotional reaction, like to the point of tears?
vandrare asked: Hedgehog in the fog ~ it's almost soothing to watch, maybe it's because I've found an inner child-like wonder at folktales & fables.

vomit-heart-deactivated20120119 asked: My comparison to Lolita was the preteen girl/older man companionship in a thriller film. Though I always hesitate to call Lolita a thriller, it technically is. Lolita was also suddenly without a family (both parents dead, no other relatives) and taken to a wild life as a fugitive by a strange man (a perverted strange man). I think the book captures that trauma a lot more than the film, the film...

– Emily Browning, on Sucker Punch censoring (via mutations)
I know - Sucker Punch again - but I think this is a very important issue. The MPAA is still fighting expressions of female sexuality and desire, and that is so incredibly wrong. Even though Sucker Punch is not at all the film I’d use...

(Though I should point out that possessing a fetish is healthy, sexually speaking, and I’ve never seen Tarantino’s foot fetish used as a degradation to his female characters. Fetishizing and objectifying, however, can definitely be degrading and I’m fairly certain that in...

Your 1st Assistant Director, Line Producer, Director of Photography, Gaffer, and Production Designer.
I thankfully don’t know any screenwriter who neglects to do this, but it’s always an important reminder. Do this for your own well-being as well as the sanity of your entire production team.

An update:
Site launches in less than a month
… er, I guess that’s it. I’ve been working a lot and my team is scrambling to get all the content we need to successfully turn on the lights, so I haven’t watched any movies lately. At all. I have a couple in my queue, though, including Dame Darcy’s Turn Of The Century (1996-1999, [cable variety show]) and the source...

So you want to watch a really cool movie, maybe based on a comic book and you want to relate to a really ass kicking character, right? So you go through the list on Netflix and it leaves something to be desired. You think to yourself, “I wish I could zap into the future to see a movie where…

It’s about time we held female characters to a higher standard and argue against the Bechdel Test as still setting the bar (because, tragically, it is!). Hollywood will continue to sneer at feminist filmgoers and say films like Twilight are worth a watch because there are at least two female characters with their very own names who talk to eachother about things other than boys - this...

iscaro:
Sorry for the lack of posts lately; I’ve been revving up for the first shoot of Deadhand on March 12th. We’re filming a really cool out-of-body experience scene in an abandoned hospital in Jersey City. The hospital serves as a map for Maria’s (the main character’s) subconscious; her insecurities and desires, and the things she feels forced into against her will. I’m going to be...

The team for The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye are doing a Kickstarter to raise the necessary funds to have Psychic TV / PTV3 perform at the US premiere of the film at South By Southwest in Austin, TX on March 15th. The festival does not give funds to fly bands in. We have received a small grant but it doesn’t cover all of the air tickets and hotels that we need. Please...
