Scoop Review - No Bombshell, Yet Pulls You In
Gillian Anderson and Billie Piper play BBC journalists who secure an explosive interview with Prince Andrew in "Scoop." Read our spoiler-free review.
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

In Knives Out Blanc wanted to do the murder mystery investigation with Marta so bad, but she was certain she was guilty so she spent a good amount of the movie avoiding/hiding stuff from him
Meanwhile in Glass Onion Helen was fucking carrying the investigation, even while accidentally getting drunk, and even went to investigation lengths Blanc was hesitant to do

Happy Monday, All!
Here's a page of sketches I did when working on Animal Crackers. I hated my handwriting (still do... but I'm okay with using in my journals now) so I scanned in my sketch page and typed my words in photoshop.
Looking at it now... it's cold. Impersonal.
It took me doing this for the film to realize that I wasn't journaling for show. I need to journal for ME.
But, I was scared that people would think my handwriting "ruined" the journal pages.
I wound up sketching all of the cast and all of my experiences, but there were just empty boxes where words WOULD go...
I wish I would have just put my thoughts in there. In my own handwriting.
It would have felt more real. More genuine.
BUT... It's a lesson I learned and hopefully I'll get to make another film soon and do it the way I want to... with my own handwriting.
Sending Big Hugs from the Hobbit Hole. ♥♥♥

How a Chinese billionaire’s dream of making an underwater fantasy blockbuster turned into a legendary movie fiasco.
Check out Atavist’s featured archive story, SUNK:
As Jiang imagined it, Empires of the Deep would tell the story of Atlas, the son of the sea god Poseidon. Atlas is depicted as a pure-hearted young man who is restless and unsure of his own destiny. He has an alter ego, the swashbuckling Silver Eye (think Batman vis à vis Bruce Wayne), who appears during moments of peril. During a celebration in Atlas’s village in ancient Greece, an invading army of mermen knights riding on the backs of giant crabs captures Atlas’s adoptive father, General Damos. A 90-foot-tall lobster absconds with a holy temple—the Temple of Poseidon—in its claws.
Atlas and his drunken, lusty sidekick, Trajin, then embark on a quest across the sea to find Damos and retrieve the temple. On the way they stumble onto Crab Island, where in a mysterious palace they encounter bewitching women, including the beautiful princess Aka, who lure men into bed and kill them after making love.

’Tis the Season to Kill the Dead-Mom Holiday Movie Trope
"Look, I get it: I’d also be relieved to find out my new bonk buddy wasn’t a philanderer. I’m not mad at Cameron; I’m mad that the dead wife-mom is a plot device in more Christmas movies than I can stuff in a stocking."
Before you curl up with a holiday movie, check out Cat Modlin-Jackson's new Longreads feature. It might just make you think differently about those festive frolics.
