I do like numbered lists, actually. Which is more than I can say for other parts of this newswire. Like “when nearly got” missing a word specifying who it is that “nearly got”. Yes, it’s implicit from context, but it’s an error not to include at least a pronoun.

Yes, Scorsese should use his clout to promote underseen films from all around the world. It could be called a “World Cinema Project”. Maybe devote particular attention to Africa.

I think Brie would be game for playing an untamed lion.

The cinematographer Wally Pfister directed four episodes of that. He hasn’t done a feature since Transcendence.

The real question is how likely they think any such controversy would be to significantly harm the show.

You only mentioned the author of the latter of the two last adaptations. Sarah Vaughan wrote Anatomy of a Scandal.

Would Flaked have been less funny if it starred Patrick Wilson instead? I don’t know, because neither I nor anybody else watched it.

I think Emmerich’s movies have varied in quality. Though it’s been a while since he had a particularly successful one.

I was grateful this deviated from tradition by not claiming the same South Asian actor was in Big Bang Theory & Silicon Valley.

Shyamalan made a couple sequels recently, so let’s not give him any ideas.

I don’t think Tim Burton’s Batman movie ended on a note teasing a sequel. Nor do I think Joaquin Phoenix would have been interested in a sequel. Has he ever been in any sequel?

Re-Animator is just a zombie movie (and not one about a person gradually zombifying either). I would think From Beyond would be closer to body-horror. For Japan, I might have gone with Tetsuo the Iron Man instead.

I never saw the first one (or read any of the books), but I agree on that first film.

I think they try to keep non-bleak ones rare. Although, to be fair, the last one I watched was Bandersnatch.

Reportedly, the “good Nazi” Oskar Schindler only did the right thing during that one time in his life, and was indeed a lousy husband & father.

I think he’s saying the competition was fierce, which was why he didn’t win.

It’s worth noting that Foe is an adaptation of a novel by Iain Reid (author of I’m Thinking of Ending Things). The director of See How They Run was conspicuously not mentioned, perhaps because he’s mostly known for British TV and this is his feature debut.

Also, she’s barely in even her one segment of The French…

They tried to acknowledge he was still a bad guy there and his antagonists initially (from what the audience learns of them) had a legitimate reason for going after him, but they still sought to make said antagonists even worse so that he’d be justified in killing them.

It’s even worse because this franchise has more direct sequels that ignore all previous sequels than Halloween, and it rarely works.

Glazer & Shawkat already did an episode of Broad City together.
