Herzlich willkommen im Jahr 2026! Wir hoffen, ihr hattet eine besinnliche Weihnachtszeit und seid gut „reingerutscht“. Für "Watch the Skies" beginnt das neue Jahr mit einer Folge, die bereits im Sommer 2025 aufgenommen wurde, deren Veröffentlichung sich jedoch u. a. aufgrund von Aufnahmen zu "Alien: Earth", "Predator" und "Running Man" immer wieder nach hinten verschoben hat. Und so gibt es nun den – zur damaligen Jahreszeit noch passenden – Sommerblockbuster "Men in Black" eben im Winter. Darin müssen Will Smith und Tommy Lee Jones nicht weniger als unseren Heimatplaneten retten. In diesem Sinne: Here come the Men in Blaaaaack!

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 338: Bryan Fuller and Nicole Hirsch Whitaker Bryan Fuller has one of the most recognizable visual signatures in modern television. Whether he's dealing with a forensic pathologist who bakes pies (Pushing Daisies) or a sophisticated cannibal (Hannibal), his work consistently balances the grotesque with the gorgeous. His style of hyper-stylized morbid surrealism was influenced by French maximalism in the 90's, such as Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Delicatessen, Amelie). “Between Delicatessen, City of Lost Children, and Amelie, there was this experience I had in the 90's and early aughts watching those films that gave me permission to push harder and go further in aesthetics that were on television,” Bryan explains. With his latest project, Dust Bunny, Bryan makes the leap from showrunning to feature directing, bringing his unique aesthetic to a dark fantasy-thriller. His decades of experience absorbing highly visual cinema have all led to this moment. “When I look at Dust Bunny, I'm like, that's a Barry Sonnenfeld shot. That's a John Carpenter shot. That's a Spielberg, because I've consumed all of these things and digested them and pooped out Dust Bunny.” Despite Bryan's self-deprecating description of the creative process, he was extremely meticulous about the filmmaking process. Cinematographer Nicole Hirsch Whitaker, ASC presented a comprehensive pitch deck that became the roadmap for the film's visual identity. “After the meeting, presenting her whole board with all of these images... she wanted the job and did a lot of work to show how she wanted the job,” says Bryan. Nicole, who shares Bryan's reverence for the same films, dove deep into the script to pull references ranging from The Professional and The Haunting (1963) to the raw, intimate photography of Nan Goldin. “I do think that it's important to make a good impression,” she says. “The deck is an impression of yourself as an artist that you leave behind.” During the interview, Nicole shares the pitch deck she made for Dust Bunny and discusses it in detail. Watch on YouTube or link to it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m0i5QVEarDFL248Vqvm3T-8a0watskba/view?usp=sharing The most radical visual choice in Dust Bunny is its aspect ratio. It's shot in an extreme 3:1 format (three squares wide), which is almost unheard of in modern cinema. This creates a triptych feel, where the frame is so wide it feels like a mural. It forces a sense of vertical claustrophobia, crushing the top and bottom of the frame. The camera emphasizes the floorboards and the space under the bed—precisely where the monster hides. This discovery occurred while Bryan and Nicole were testing lenses. Once the framing matte came off the lens, revealing the open gate width of the sensor, Bryan realized the wider view fundamentally changed the film's psychology. A subject centered in a 3:1 frame felt isolated in a way they hadn't before, sharpening the camera's emotional point of view. To further isolate the characters, Nicole tuned the ARRI Alpha anamorphic lenses to fall off at the edges, ensuring the audience's focus remains locked on the performance. While Dust Bunny was shot over 44 days in Budapest, the film's visual language was decades in the making. For Nicole, the challenge was translating a legendary showrunner's mental gallery into a physical reality. For Bryan, it was a homecoming to the cinematic influences that first gave him permission to be “too much.” See Dust Bunny in theaters.

Look at me, Harry! NostalgiaCast kicks off its 1995 retrospective with a fond look back at GET SHORTY, directed by Barry Sonnenfeld and starring John Travolta, Gene Hackman, Rene Russo, and Danny DeVito. Jonny and Darin don't say anything more than they have to, if that, as they compare this meta-comedy classic confection to the Elmore Leonard book on which it's based, gush over their favorite performances and dialogue, and marvel at how Sonnenfeld and screenwriter Scott Frank make the adaptation their own.

Here, he shares nine bits of wisdom and whimsy gleaned from 40 years in entertainment. So the next time you encounter a screaming bully, you too will know what to do.

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY THAT MAY DISTURB SOME LISTENERS. What's the rumpus? This week TGTPTU gives the Coen Brothers movie classic MILLER'S CROSSING (1990) the treatment as part of its Squib Season, see. Lensed by Barry Sonnenfeld in his last frolic as the brothers' cinematographer, Ethan Coen told the man with a golden eye that Miller's Crossing should be a handsome film about men in hats, and Sonnenfeld delivers the goods with one spectacularly shot period piece from the Prohibition Era. The picture stars Gabriel Byrne as Tom Reagan, the hard-drinking, harder-gambling Irish consigliere who knows all the angles, who's having an affair with his boss's skirt Verna Bernbaum (played by Marcia Gay Harden, who shortly after filming would originate the role of Harper Pitt in Tony Kushner's two-part play Angels in America, see Season 7 of TGTPTU for more!). Pod favorite John Turturro plays her brother Bernie, a conniving low-life crook who causes the friction in the ranks and can turn on the waterworks when needed. Jon Polito plays a loving dad allergic to the high-hat and with his right-hand J. E. Freeman playing the Dane (same year he'd star in Wild at Heart, see Season 4) they plan to take over the town from Albert Finney in one of his two roles as Tom's boss Leo (the other appearance uncredited, spoilers during the episode for this Easter egg). Also, director and occasional second-unit-for-the-Coens-director Sam Raimi (and, can you believe it, brother of actor Ted Raimi from Hard Target covered earlier this Squib Games season!) shows up to plug a speakeasy patron grabbing air before himself getting gatted. And if you still haven't had your fill, at this buffet of talent we even get a smattering of Steve Buscemi delivering ratatat dialogue for a scene. This ep, Jack brings the book report, Thomas the Danish facts, Ken reenacts the experience of watching Miller's Crossing with him by dropping movie quotes throughout the episode, Ryan brings up Gabriel Byrne's acting chops, and all four hosts harmonize on the greater good. Now get outta here. You're stinking up the joint.

Miller's Crossing (1990) was chosen by supporter Justin, and it stands as one of the most stylish entries in the Coen Brothers' early catalogue. After the breakout success of Blood Simple and the quirky charm of Raising Arizona, the Coens set their sights on the gangster genre, crafting a film inspired by classic Dashiell Hammett novels such as The Glass Key and Red Harvest. Their vision was to make a thoughtful, atmospheric crime drama that combined sharp, layered dialogue with the kind of morally tangled storytelling that would become their trademark.The journey to get there wasn't exactly smooth. Midway through writing, the brothers hit a creative wall so severe they shelved the script and instead made Barton Fink before returning to finish Miller's Crossing. Filming in New Orleans gave the movie its richly authentic period feel, with Barry Sonnenfeld's moody cinematography and Carter Burwell's haunting score elevating the production. While the film didn't set the box office on fire, its craftsmanship and style have since earned it a devoted following and cemented its reputation as one of the Coens' most accomplished works.If you enjoy the show, we have a Patreon, so become a supporter here.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:NordVPNNordPassTrailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a city of power, deception, and danger… One man navigates the shadows of loyalty and betrayal.From the visionary Coen Brothers comes Miller's Crossing — a stylish, tension-packed journey through the underworld, where every word is a weapon, every glance a threat, and nothing is as it seems. With danger lurking around every corner, alliances are tested, and the rules of the game are rewritten in blood and cunning.Miller's Crossing - loyalty has a price… and betrayal has consequences.Fun FactsMiller's Crossing (1990) was directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, following their cult hit Raising Arizona (1987).The film is considered one of the greatest gangster movies of the 1990s, heavily inspired by Dashiell Hammett's novels The Glass Key and Red Harvest.During production, the Coen Brothers experienced writer's block and paused to create Barton Fink (1991) before returning to finish Miller's Crossing.The title Miller's Crossing refers to the forested setting where some of the movie's most pivotal scenes take place.Cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld gave the movie its iconic noir-inspired look, marking his last collaboration with the Coens before moving on to direct The Addams Family.The haunting score by Carter Burwell is infused with Irish folk influences, including themes based on the traditional piece Lament for Limerick.Despite a production budget of around $10–14 million, the movie only grossed about $5 million at the box office.Over the years, Miller's Crossing has been critically reappraised and is now celebrated as one of the Coen Brothers' finest works.The film is often ranked alongside Coen classics such as Fargo (1996) and No Country for Old Men (2007).Today, it's seen as a masterclass in neo-noir storytelling and has influenced a new generation of filmmakers in the gangster genre.thevhsstrikesback@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback

Zo doesn't consider himself kooky, ooky or spooky, yet he finds himself near 1313 Cemetery Lane where it is said some very extraordinary people live. Zo doesn't want to actually meet this eccentric family; he's just house watching . . . just sight seeing different houses and admiring their beauty. This house is certainly one of the more beautiful houses in this neighborhood. Zo has heard that the strange homeowners, The Addams Family, are a friendly bunch, but they do have a bunch of unusual proclivities that Zo would rather avoid.

Craig Mazin is the showrunner behind HBO's hit post-apocalyptic series “The Last of Us” — but he didn't always write TV dramas. Much of his career was spent working on big comedy film franchises like “Scary Movie” and “The Hangover.” In this conversation with guest host Garvia Bailey, Craig breaks down why it takes a smart person to write dumb comedy, plus, what you can expect from Season 2 of “The Last of Us.” If you enjoy this conversation, check out Tom Power's chat with director and producer Barry Sonnenfeld.
