Defunctland did an episode on LotHT, and I learned quite a bit- especially the block filming; where they’d film four or five episodes a day, filming all of the challenges in a block-i.e., all the five episodes worth of trivia challenges at once- so most of the time the kids were just sitting in a greenroom waiting to…
this...this is EVERYTHING.
I’m gonna go out on a limb here, and assume that this weirdness has to do with COVID. I work in TV, and we had almost *just* finished shooting our midseason finale on March 13 of 2020. We only had a couple pick up shots and some VFX to finish it. Then we were all out of work for months, and the show began to air its…
As someone who works in film and has had to come up with band names before, believe me, it is VERY hard. First of all, you have to come up with a large list of potential names and avoiding your subconscious intake of actual band names, then that list has to be submitted to Clearances to make sure they’re legally clear…
she has the marriage she deserves.
THANK YOU for mentioning Fear- between here and iO9 they talk about TWD and WB often but just completely ignore Fear and how GOOD this season has been so far.
Nah, her name’s been Heidi for a looong time- but the Sasha Nicole Fierce is a reference to an oft forgotten period of Beyoncés career
I know it’s pretty “different” but Trixie Mattel’s Barbara was released today and considering how much I’ve seen her featured on various Giz sites, I’m shocked that there hasn’t been on mention of that today. The album is pretty great “side a” is very B-52s surf pop/punk and “side b” is more folksy/americana which is…
as a gay, it kind of blows my mind to see a video of an interview with Trixie linked onto my mainstream “geek” site over at iO9. Sure, I can watch endless videos of her on YouTube, but to just casually scroll through another site and see her, it’s an amazing sensation. It used to be, that if I wanted that kind of…
Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that’s why I poop on Company Time!
ehhhh, the golden globes aren’t necessarily the best barometer for awards season. Whereas the Emmy’s, Oscars, (and Grammy’s/Tony’s) are made up and voted on by Academies that consist of professionals in the various mediums, the golden globes are created by the Hollywood Foreign Press Assoc., which is really just…
Is In The Heights one of my favorite modern musicals? Yes.
Fucking Burkman and the Boy Blunder.
This one’s too.
True story: my uncle had to be talked out of giving my cousin the middle name Kaitlyn by his at the time wife, because her first and last name started with a “K”. He didn’t see anything wrong with it (shocker: he’s a Trumper and racist piece of shit). Her initials were going to be KKK and he saw nothing wrong with…
I am just going to drop in to say that Nicolas Sparks is a piece of shit person. I grew up in New Bern (where he lives, and where The Notebook takes place) and I, along with family members, friends, and co-workers have all had interactions with him and his family that makes it obvious what kind of a person he really…
wow, no I’d never seen either of those clips. And I was in grad school until 2016. Thank you so much for sharing these, I agree its quite sad how much has been lost to the sands of time in what wasn’t saved in some way or another to more permanent formats
There’s a deep cut. I loved the play of Hot l Baltimore, in grad school we did a design project on it (I went for scenic design), there were so many details that could be played with just in the set alone, nevermind all of the wonderful character details. I’ve only seen clips of the TV version of it, and from what I…
I’m convinced that with future Zari leaving the dragon egg with 2019 Zari, and them making it purposefully shown that she is the first thing it sees, that the time line will change a bit with Zari having raised it, and it being used as a Beebo-esque deus ex machnia against Neron.
Yup. I work in the film industry in Austin, and while its getting better, the TX lege/Governor really screwed the pooch a while back with our film incentives, and for a bit work just dried up.
