The Paramount–Skydance (PSKY) merger is reshaping the media landscape, drawing comparisons to past mega-deals like Disney–Fox and raising questions about long-term box office impact. Shawn Robbins says the theatrical business is becoming increasingly event-driven, with premium formats like IMAX and Dolby outperforming as studios target younger audiences and gaming-based IP. While release schedules remain soft in the near term, Robbins sees 2026 shaping up as the strongest post-pandemic recovery year, driven by major franchise releases and renewed investment in high-end cinematic experiences.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The latest film from the writer and director Clint Bentley, “Train Dreams,” is nominated for four Oscars, including best adapted screenplay. The movie is based on Denis Johnson's 2011 novella of the same name and tells the story of Robert Grainier, a logger in the Pacific Northwest, in stream-of-consciousness, nonlinear prose. This week, Gilbert Cruz talks with Bentley, who wrote the screenplay with Greg Kwedar, his longtime collaborator, about how he went about translating Johnson's work into a visual medium. Bentley first read “Train Dreams” just after college, long before he ever thought of making it into a movie. When producers with rights to the book approached Bentley, he was suddenly worried. “Going back and reading the book again,” Bentley said, “I was like, Oh, maybe this thing is unadaptable.” Set on capturing the spirit of the book, Bentley and Kwedar focused on “the vastness of this small little life,” he said. “We very rarely have an understanding of our lives in the moment we're actually living them,” Bentley said. “We only start to understand them when it's too late.” Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

"One thing that's really interesting to me...is that one of our great cultural critics is Stephen King... the basically the first big review of Red Dragon in the I think it was in the Washington Post in 1981, and it is not only a rave, but it is completely 100 spot on. Red Dragon is like stepping into a limousine where everything works... perfectly."In this very special bonus episode of MINHUNTER, I speak to the extremely talented journalist, author and podcaster Brian Raftery about his great new novel, HANNIBAL LECTER - A LIFE. Synopsis: Drawing from exclusive interviews and previously unseen archival materials, this one-of-its-kind biography of Hannibal Lecter documents the cannibal's journey from terrifying villain to unexpectedly adored antihero.This unique biography traces the many lives and crimes of Hannibal Lecter: his disturbing debut in Thomas Harris's 1981 novel Red Dragon; his rise to infamy in beloved films like Michael Mann's Manhunter and Jonathan Demme's Academy Award–winning The Silence of the Lambs; and his unexpected comeback in the cult-hit TV series Hannibal. It also dives into the untold life and career of Harris, the secretive bestselling author whose passion for reporting, eye for grisly detail, and connections to the FBI helped birth not only Lecter, but also the modern true-crime genre. Along the way, Hannibal Lecter: A Life documents the many ways Lecter's rise reflected America's ever-growing obsession with real-life serial killers.Featuring all-new interviews with crucial figures from Lecter's past—including actor Brian Cox, director Mann, and former FBI special agent John Douglas—Hannibal Lecter: A Life is a deeply reported, wildly entertaining look at the making of one of the most beloved bad guys of all time.About Brian Raftery Brian Raftery's work has appeared in such publications as The New York Times, Wired, GQ, and The Ringer. He's the author of Best. Movie. Year. Ever.: How 1999 Blew Up the Big Screen, and the host of multiple podcasts for the Ringer, including the acclaimed Gene & Roger.

Dermot's monologue on Thursday
On this week of The Bugle, Andy is joined by Anuvab Pal and Sara Barron, as they navigate through the week's biggest and strangest stories, from Melania Trump's movie release, the new Springsteen number, Starmer's trip to China and a potentially habitable new planet has been discovered 146 light-years away – but it may be -70C
‘Melania', the documentary about US first lady Melania Trump, took in an estimated $7m when it hit US cinema screens at the weekend making it the highest debut by a non-music documentary or concert film in more than a decade. These are the sort of figures other documentaries can only dream of, so it's a hit? Far from it says Irish Times journalist Hugh Linehan who points out that it cost Amazon $45 million to make plus a reported $35 million in marketing costs so financially it makes no sense. And critically? Well “boring” is probably the nicest thing reviewers have said. Over nearly two hours it reveals very little about the former Slovenian model other than she wears nice clothes and even nicer shoes. For Linehan, it's a classic Trump family grift, this time with Melania making the money. She is expected to be paid $28 million for the documentary which charts the 20 days in the lead-up to her husband's 2025 inauguration. Presented by Bernice Harrison. Hosted on Acast.

This week on Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the key takeaways from a new George R.R. Martin profile that gives a clearer picture of where Westeros could be headed next. The biggest headline is Aegon the Conqueror's story, which is being discussed as either a massive “Dune-like” theatrical feature or an HBO series, with budget and scale being the deciding factor.We also touch on how A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (Dunk and Egg) is being positioned as a more budget-friendly Westeros show with a smaller scope but strong character work, plus an update on how a Sea Snake/Valyrian-era project reportedly shifted from live action to animation. Finally, we revisit the scrapped Jon Snow sequel idea and why it may be getting another pass, even as Martin remains focused on finishing The Winds of Winter.00:00 Aegon's Conquest in discussion, movie vs HBO series00:17 Why budget is the real deciding factor and why it might belong on a big screen00:25 Dunk and Egg plans, future novellas, and early excitement for the cast00:31 The Jon Snow sequel that got shelved for being too dark00:43 Why post-Thrones sequels are tricky while the books are unfinished00:56 Sea Snake/Valyrian project shift to animation, the push for cheaper Westeros stories01:11 Why Dunk and Egg works as a lighter, smaller, dialogue-driven show01:34 Personal takeaway on Winds of Winter pressure, plus recommending the profile01:40 Wrap-upAegon's Conquest is being kicked around as either a theatrical-scale film or an HBO series, with budget driving the decision.The Conquest story feels built for spectacle, especially if they want battles that really land visually.Dunk and Egg is being framed as a smart scope reset: character-first, cheaper to produce, and still very “Westeros.”Martin wants to write more Dunk and Egg stories, beyond the three existing novellas.The Jon Snow sequel idea reportedly stalled because the tone was too bleak, but the concept may be resurfacing in some form.Another Westeros project tied to the Sea Snake/Valyrian side of the world reportedly moved from live action to animation to control costs.The profile reframes the Winds of Winter conversation with a more human lens, especially around how fans talk about time and pressure.“Either way, the budget is really what it comes down to.” “It was a nice little reset in my mind to not be so harsh on him.” “Make sure you guys check it out.” If you enjoyed this quick Westeros update, subscribe to Geek Freaks Headlines, leave a rating and review, and share the episode using #GeekFreaksHeadlines.All news discussed on the show is sourced through GeekFreaks Podcast dot com.Twitter: @geekfreakspodInstagram: @geekfreakspodcastThreads: @geekfreakspodcastFacebook: Geek Freaks PodcastPatreon: GeekFreaksPodcastGot a theory about Aegon's Conquest, Dunk and Egg, or where Westeros goes next?

To understand how a South African studio pulled off such an ambitious project, Amy MacIver speaks to Phil Cunningham, film maker and co-founder of Sunrise Animation Studios. Cunningham has decades of experience in animation, from the stop-motion classic The Legend of the Sky Kingdom to the international hit franchise Jungle Beat. He shares the story behind David’s long development, the challenges of animating humans in a faith-based narrative, and the global collaboration that brought this 30-year vision to life.

His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

It's 2026, and Dad is still being portrayed as incapable and laughable to take care of the kids. But what if mothers were portrayed in the same way in cinema?

On this episode, we're joined by the novelist Maggie O'Farrell to discuss the new film adaptation of her 2020 novel Hamnet, which she co-wrote with the film's Oscar-winning director, Chloé Zhao.Maggie speaks with us about what it means to see a book reimagined for the screen without losing any of its tactility or emotional power, and how the collaborative process expanded rather than narrowed her understanding of the original work. For her, this was not a matter of surrendering her novel to the big screen, but of discovering new ways to open out a story she thought she was finished with.We also discuss the film's extraordinary ensemble cast, including Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Emily Watson, Joe Alwyn, and Jacobi Jupe; how the film's director created a visual language to frame the historical experience as something rooted in the present tense; and Maggie's reflections on the strange prescience of this plague story being originally released in March 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.Hosted by Ryan Edgington.

Nicole Jones-Dion, a screenwriter, director, and producer, shared her unconventional path into filmmaking, beginning in the world of video games and comics before moving into film. Known for her work on projects like Tekken 2, Dracula: The Dark Prince, and the SyFy thriller They Found Hell, she has built a career in genre storytelling that blends sci-fi, horror, and action. Her persistence paid off after writing more than fifteen spec scripts and seizing opportunities to rewrite and adapt existing material, which she says makes up most of Hollywood screenwriting.Nicole's approach emphasizes discipline, structure, and character-driven storytelling, ensuring her projects are both creative and marketable. She also found success with crowdfunding, raising nearly $20,000 for her short horror film Debris, which explored the legend of a cursed samurai sword. The campaign's popularity proved the power of a strong concept and led to festival recognition. With her directorial debut Stasis and other projects in development, Nicole continues to explore stories that challenge audiences while entertaining them. Her journey demonstrates the importance of adaptability, hard work, and never stopping the pursuit of growth as a filmmaker.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.
Best of 2025 1: Big Screen, Big Crucibles: Les MiserablesYou've heard us talk a lot over the years at Beyond the Crucible about the power of forgiveness — and that's one of the core themes of our discussion this week of LES MISERABLES, the fourth film in our summer series BIG SCREEN, BIG CRUCIBLES.Everyone in the movie experiences a crucible, but those who receive and then extend mercy and forgiveness to others are the ones who find lives of significance. Those too rigid to see the best in others, or in themselves — like the prison guard and policeman Javert -- wind up — as one of the American translations of the film's title puts it — The Miserable Ones.To explore Beyond the Crucible resources, including our free Trials-to-Triumphs Self-Assessment, visit beyondthecrucible.com.Enjoy the show?

Rebecca Sonnenshine, writer and producer of The Housemaid and The Boys, joins the No Film School Podcast to unpack her journey from film school to genre television, and how she approaches adapting novels into screenplays. She shares how she got her start, how she discovered her voice in genre, and the intense pitch process behind landing The Housemaid. Rebecca also offers practical advice for writing contained stories, building a compelling script from source material, and creating work that audiences actually want to watch. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Rebecca Sonnenshine discuss... How Rebecca's early jobs and script coverage experience helped her become a screenwriter Why she embraced genre writing and how her perspective as a woman informs her work The pitch process for adapting The Housemaid, and how she knew it was the right fit How she avoids voiceover and instead finds cinematic ways to externalize internal character thoughts The importance of blocking and movement when writing contained, single-location stories Her writing habits: page goals, scene sketching, talking out dialogue, and more What filmmakers can learn from writing bottle episodes or adapting material Why thinking about your audience is key to writing something people actually want to watch Memorable Quotes: "I read something and it either clicks or it doesn't." "Pitching… takes a long time. You need all the twists and turns… but not more than 28 minutes." "I don't love voiceover. So I had to find a device in which we could get some of their thoughts out." "Blocking is everything. If you're not thinking about blocking while you're writing, then you're doing your project a disservice."

What makes a movie biblical—even if it's not about the Bible? In this episode, Dr. Dru Johnson explores that question with a curated list of films that reflect deep biblical structures—movies that “get what's going on in Scripture” better than many that explicitly reference the Bible. These aren't Sunday School adaptations—they're gritty, layered, and emotionally raw. Dru walks through Tree of Life (a meditation on Job and Genesis 1), A Serious Man (Job again, but existential and tragic), East of Eden (sibling rivalry and human depravity), Magnolia and The Breakfast Club (portraits of generational sin), American History X (a dark inversion of Proverbs 1–9), and Memento and Coco (explorations of memory against the backdrop of Deuteronomy). Even No Country for Old Men gets a nod for evoking the lawless chaos of Genesis 6. Throughout, Dru challenges listeners to rethink what it means to portray biblical themes—not by surface references, but by engaging with the deep moral, literary, and theological structures that Scripture unveils. If you've ever wondered whether “secular” films can teach us something profoundly biblical, this is your list. We are listener supported.

Wow, do we have a conversation for you! My filmmaker-theologian friend Sarey Martin Concepción and I sat down with director Lofty Nathan about his wild new film "The Carpenter's Son"—and let me tell you, this isn't your Sunday school Jesus. We're talking Nicholas Cage as Joseph (yes, he's a national treasure), FKA twigs bringing something totally unconventional to Mary, and demon snakes that literally made my phone start searching when I mentioned them. The film pulls from the Infancy Gospel of Thomas—one of those apocryphal texts that didn't make the canonical cut but the Coptic Orthodox Church has preserved—and asks the question nobody really wants to ask: what was it actually like for Jesus to figure out he was, you know, God? Nathan, who grew up Coptic Christian himself, doesn't sanitize anything here. We dig into all the big stuff: identity crises, divine vocation, the problem of suffering, and what happens when your kid can perform miracles but doesn't quite get the whole "with great power" thing yet. Fair warning: I watched this alone in the dark and those demon snakes freaked me out. But underneath the horror elements, there's this sincere, thoughtful wrestling with what incarnation really means. November 17th, folks—see it in theaters where you can properly freak out with other people. Sign up HERE to stay up to date on Theology Beer Camp 2026 & get EARLY ACCESS to the cheapest tickets. UPCOMING ONLINE ADVENT CLASS w/ Diana Butler Bass Join us for a transformative four-week Advent journey exploring how the four gospels speak their own revolutionary word against empire—both in their ancient context under Roman occupation and for our contemporary world shaped by capitalism, militarism, and nationalism. Advent marks the beginning of the church year—an invitation to step out of the empire's time and into God's time, where the last are first, the mighty are scattered, and a child born in occupied territory changes everything. This course invites you into an alternative calendar and rhythm. While our modern world races through December toward consumption and productivity, Advent calls us to a different time—a counter-imperial waiting, a subversive hope, a radical reimagining of how God enters the world. What will we experience? Each week, we'll hear one gospel's unique vision of the birth narrative, allowing Matthew, Luke, John, and Mark to speak in their own voices about what it means for God to show up when empires think they're in control. We'll discover how these ancient texts of resistance offer wisdom for our own moment of political turmoil, economic inequality, and ecological crisis. This class is donation-based, including 0.
