The Crow People once believed that when a franchise dies, a crow carries it to the land of the dead (direct to video). But sometimes, something so bad happens to a film series that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the franchise can't rest. The Crow is that franchise, and despite it languishing in Development Hell for nearly 20 years it has now been resurrected to shamble onto the screen once more. Caw, Caw, Bang! it's a new Crow film! Dion, Quinny and Jill are the revenants haunting this review, and in the post show they also talked about the following: Megalopolis: https://youtu.be/j9_nPeKnpfE?si=S7gYv-1b4FAJpXH6 Drag Race: https://youtu.be/cc9lK6UTduM?si=ElfBSegkEpLXAeb_ Tales of the TMNT: https://youtu.be/qZo7A_XBNeE?si=GonKFdfqah8FhN0U The Penguin: https://youtu.be/sfJG6IiA_s8?si=a3ZmlD2Q4h0hWHfb Mortal Kombat: https://youtu.be/NYH2sLid0Zc?si=iLejNmPei_5EAc1B Synopsis Soulmates Eric Draven and Shelly Webster are brutally murdered when the demons of her dark past catch up with them.

In 1986, Cameron Crowe, the film director, and Nancy Wilson, of the rock group Heart, got married. They honeymooned in a little cabin in the Pacific Northwest, and while they were there decided to write a musical, about Elvis as a cab driver in Seattle. They wrote and recorded demos of all the songs, and called it “Blue Seattle.” It became a lost masterpiece that never saw the light of day. In our Development Hell season finale, Cameron joins Malcolm to share the songs and tell the story behind “Blue Seattle” for the very first time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we're sharing two special conversations, featuring our friends at Revisionist History. First, Malcolm Gladwell joins Sam to discuss "Development Hell," a new series about the untold stories of Hollywood that never left the page (2:00). Then, we turn to Gladwell's recent sit-down with director M. Night Shyamalan (25:00). Before Shyamalan became a household name for his mind bending thrillers like “The Sixth Sense” and “Signs”, he was just a young screenwriter in love. And during those blissful early years of marriage he wrote a love story. The screenplay for “Labor of Love” sold right away, and over the next 30 years or so there would be numerous attempts to make it into a movie. There was a major studio, there were A-list directors, Shyamalan even found his perfect star. In this episode, M. Night Shyamalan reveals the script that haunts him.

Between her big hits, “Monster” and “Wonder Woman”, Patty Jenkins wrote an R-rated fairy tale, starring a dog. She hoped that the dog would deliver such a great performance that the Academy would — for the first time — give the Best Actor award to an animal. The story was about a dog program in a prison, a perfect set-up for a story of both canine and human redemption, right? Wrong. That's the kind of story Hollywood loves, but not the kind of story Jenkins wanted to tell. Enter development hell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Before Charles Randolph won an Oscar for his adaptation of “The Big Short”, he took a swing at a thornier adaptation, a memoir called “The Birthday Party.” It's the true story of a white man kidnapped by three young Black men. In his adaptation, Randolph chose not to write the action movie that producers had in mind, but to focus on the racial dynamics at play.
