Good morning! I've started a new series on the craft of writing, using John Boorman's EXCALIBUR (1981) to walk you through the concepts found in John Truby's Anatomy of Story. The first post is free to read + includes a spreadsheet for writing your own stories: www.patreon.com/posts/130659...

With THE LONG WALK and THE RUNNING MAN getting movies in 2025, this felt like the exact discovery I needed. PUNISHMENT PARK needs a 4K restoration/collector's edition. This is important cinema that still plays as brutal today as it did over half a century ago. 📽️🎬

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

One of the most controversial movies ever made is quietly streaming for free on Tubi in Canada & US: 1971’s PUNISHMENT PARK. A film crew watches as detained civil rights and antiwar activists are given a choice: time in federal prison … or being hunted for sport by cops in a barren wasteland.

I recommend Common Side Effects on adult swim / Max. Comic thriller about medicine & capitalism. Mike Judge voices an exhausted pharma CEO, which is funny because it's like evil Hank Hill. Good show even if you're not into animation (though you should be, what's wrong with you, person I invented?)

holy hell DISEMBODIED is the real deal. A 16mm passion project from the late 90s that feels like someone put Under the Skin and Brain Damage in a blender. I haven’t felt this kind of energy outside the first Evil Dead. Good on @bleedingskull.bsky.social for doing the lord’s work with this release.
