Remembering one of the greatest authors & screenwriters, RICHARD MATHESON, born OTD 98 yrs ago. His novels inspired great genre movies like OMEGA MAN, THE LAST MAN ON EARTH, HELL HOUSE, he also penned some of my fave TWILIGHT ZONE episodes. This original one sheet is displayed proudly in my studio.

The older I get, the more I feel like Bill Hicks was right about goddamn everything.

Superb discussion about film and philosophy with Bill Hader & philosophy professor Stephen Asma. No Paul Giamatti sadly but it’s really interesting about Taxi Driver, The Thin Red Line, A Clockwork Orange, Sam Fuller, the Coens and anti-heroes. Don’t worry, it’s funny, too. pca.st/episode/14e7...

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

Listen: I talked with Jewel Rodgers about how she became Nebraska’s first Black state poet, growing up there, and she gives a taste of her poetry at the end!

Mr. Turner (2014) dir. Mike Leigh Incredible cinematography pays tribute to the work although the character portrayed by Timothy Spall is revealed to be nothing short of a selfish, crotchety swine. C'est la vie. 🎨🎬 #filmsky #moviesky #artsky

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Just watched Children of Men for the first time, which had been on my list for ages Can you believe it's nearly 20 years old (2006), which is surely a mistake as the Noughties were only a few years ago Anyway, excellent stuff

Fair play, Criterion. Wonderful movies, wonderful cast. Oliver Reed is perfect as Athos.

Cineplex instead of making smug adverts about the different types of people that ruin the movie theatre experience with poor phone etiquette, how about you empower your employees to actually kick people out for poor phone etiquette.
