Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 3, 2025 is: snark • SNAHRK • noun Snark is an informal word that refers to an attitude or expression of mocking irreverence and sarcasm. // The stand-up comedian's set was full of snark about current events, which had the audience rolling in the aisles. See the entry > Examples: “With snark and whimsy, [Zelda] Williams and the screenwriter Diablo Cody … put a playfully macabre spin on the Frankenstein legend that doubles as a subversive exploration of the universal desire to be loved and understood.” — Erik Piepenburg, The New York Times, 16 Aug. 2024 Did you know? Credit for snark is often given to Lewis Carroll, on the basis of his having written a poem with this word in the title, back in the 1870s. The modern snark, however, is a back-formation (“a word formed by subtraction of a real or supposed affix from an already existing longer word”), a class of words that includes burgle and back-stab. It comes from taking the longer word snarky and subtracting the -y. Snarky emerged in English around the turn of the 20th century, initially with the meaning of “snappish, crotchety,” and then later took on the sense of “sarcastic, impertinent, or irreverent in tone or manner.” The noun snark is a much more recent addition to the language, arising in the 1990s. It was preceded by the verb snark, “to make an irreverent or sarcastic comment, to say something snarky,” which dates to the late 1980s.

Dinner dinner dinner dinner! Etc. Announced just six months before it landed in cinemas, the much-loved 1966 production Batman: The Movie was a masterclass in moving fast. Shot while the first series of the Batman TV show was still playing, it was written in two weeks, filmed in a month, and premiering in Texas as a result of some help with a boat... Also filmed in a month? Jason Reitman's 2011 feature Young Adult, starring Charlize Theron. Written by Diablo Cody, Reitman was all set to go with a different film until the Young Adult script came in. Even then, he had a key condition to getting the movie made. Stories of both are told in this episode... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Y'all. we were very unprepared for this. We might have filed this under women's wrongs. BT.U We are following the story of a young woman who was demonically transposed by gross failures of nasty young men, and as a result fed on the blood of young boys. Diablo Cody will always have our hearts. The dialogue in this movie is god tier. The meme potential is god tier. We're so sad we haven't had this movie in our lives. But this is one of those cases where we all have to buckle in and be prepared for everything that is on the way down.... SUPPORT US ON PATERON!!

There's a certain magic in the way creativity stirs the soul, and on today's episode, we welcome Kristin Overn, a seasoned producer and the visionary behind the PAGE International Screenwriting Awards. With a career steeped in the art of storytelling, Kristin has spent years cultivating opportunities for writers to transform their ideas into scripts that resonate across the industry.Kristin's journey began in the theater world, studying playwriting and directing at Northwestern University. Her love for stories soon led her westward, to the bustling hive of Hollywood. "I've always been fascinated by story," she reflects. "It's the common thread that connects us all." In Los Angeles, she worked tirelessly—starting as an assistant and script reader, gradually earning her stripes in film production.But her heart's true calling emerged as she realized a profound gap in the industry: connecting new writers with emerging producers.This insight birthed the PAGE Awards, a screenwriting competition designed not just to showcase talent but to bridge the divide between raw creativity and industry access. Kristin's philosophy is simple yet profound: “Every great script deserves a champion, someone who sees its potential and helps it take flight.” Over the years, the competition has grown exponentially, now receiving over 6,000 entries annually. Its rigorous vetting process ensures that only the most compelling stories rise to the top—a beacon of hope for aspiring writers seeking their breakthrough.Kristin's candid advice to screenwriters is a reminder of the industry's complexity and the persistence it demands. “Find your voice,” she urges. “Don't try to be the next Quentin Tarantino or Diablo Cody. Be unapologetically you.” Her anecdotes, drawn from years of working with writers and producers, illustrate the transformative power of authentic storytelling—where characters leap off the page and evoke emotions that linger.The episode dives deep into the intricacies of screenwriting competitions, the challenges of script development, and the significance of receiving professional feedback. Kristin's passion for mentorship shines as she describes the thrill of connecting PAGE winners with managers, agents, and producers who can bring their stories to life. “There's nothing quite like seeing a writer's hard work pay off,” she says, with a palpable sense of joy.As the conversation unfolds, Kristin's wisdom offers not just technical insights but a deeper understanding of the human connection that underpins all great storytelling. Her belief in the power of perseverance and the beauty of imperfection reminds us that the road to success is often paved with lessons learned from failure.“At the end of the day,” Kristin concludes, “the stories that move us are the ones that come from the heart. They're honest, raw, and unapologetically human.” It's a sentiment that echoes long after the episode ends, leaving listeners inspired to pick up their pens and tell their own truths.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

Send us a textRemember when teen pregnancy was a thing? This week we discuss Juno, the movie that reinvented this particular noughties trend and made stars out of Elliot Page, Michael Cera and the film's screenwriter, Diablo Cody. We discuss what makes the script so good and why people hated it. There is also space to reminisce about the heyday of director's commentaries. This movie had an excellent one with Diablo Cody and the film's director, Jason Reitman. Is there a way to bring them back?References Jaison Reitman on JunoDiablo Cody on Juno and its critics 15 years later by Evan Nicole Brown for The Hollywood Reporter-----------If you love what we do, please like, subscribe and leave a review!Edited and produced by Lily Austin and James BrailsfordOriginal music by James BrailsfordInstagram TikTokEmail us

Lisa Frankenstein is a darkly comedic, neon-soaked horror film set in the late 80s, penned by Diablo Cody and directed by Zelda Williams. It explores Lisa's journey from grief-stricken teen to self-assured misfit as she accidentally resurrects her Victorian crush and navigates a chaotic world filled with small-town gossip, body parts, and dark humor. Ghouls Next Door unpack this delightful mashup of camp, gore, and heart. Dive into our discussion about the film's unique blend of comedy, grief, and 80s nostalgia, as well as how it stacks up against other iconic horror comedies like Heathers and Jennifer's Body. Perfect for fans of unconventional storytelling, horror enthusiasts, and anyone who loves a quirky, heartfelt tale with a side of gore!

Theme is: movies with less than 50% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, aka "underrated." Just because the people say it's bad doesn't mean it's actually bad. We swapped films that we'd ride for, even if it's really not that good of a film. Amanda watches Denzel go bad in his most famous team-up with Tony Scott in MAN ON FIRE (2004) and Zac watches sapphic internet favorite JENNIFER'S BODY (2009) from Diablo Cody.

Join hosts Michael and Mindy for a Halloween special episode as they dive into a double feature of horror comedies penned by Diablo Cody. This episode explores the intriguing blend of humor and horror in "Lisa Frankenstein" and "Jennifer's Body". First up is "Lisa Frankenstein", a film that combines romance and the undead, directed by Zelda Williams in her debut. With standout performances from Catherine Newton and Cole Sprouse, the movie is praised for its humor, heart, and 80s aesthetic. The hosts discuss its potential as a future cult classic and how it defies typical horror comedy conventions. Next, the duo revisits "Jennifer's Body", a film that gained cult status over the years. Despite its initial mixed reception, Michael and Mindy delve into its themes, performances, and why it didn't achieve the expected breakout success. They also highlight Adam Brody's unexpected role and the film's visual appeal under the direction of Karyn Kusama. As they wrap up the episode, Michael and Mindy reflect on the challenges and successes of balancing horror with comedy, and why some films find their audience long after their initial release. Tune in for a lively discussion filled with insights and Halloween spirit!

Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship. Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better.

Join them as they pitch a few better versions of this movie, discuss their love/hate (mostly hate) relationship to Cody's movies and debate whether the movie's creature is motivated by malice or a series of oopsies. Can they patch together a working plot out of this assortment of dead parts? Listen and find out.  Special thanks to Mallory Johns for the introduction music.

We continue our mini-series #Franklymydear which examines horror films inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein with a very recent film from this year. LISA FRANKENSTEIN is the feature debut of Zelda Williams and was written by Diablo Cody. It features a very 80s aesthetic and a darkly comic story of death, resurrection, murder, and how difficult it is to be a teenager.

This week we're reviewing the Diablo Cody penned horror/comedy "Lisa Frankenstein".

Today's movie takes on the guise of a weird '80s teen comedy, then adds in some supernatural phenomena and some axes. So we consult THE JV CLUB's Janet Varney on the peculiarities of Lisa's high school experience, and then make up some Monster Mash-up movies of our own.What's GoodAlonso - RO-TEL DipJanet - Mochi Muffins from Third Culture BakeryDrea - Chocolate-dipped TwinkiesITIDICThe Oscars Are Adding a New Category: Best Casting2023 Sundance Darling FANCY DANCE Finally Finds a HomeCrunchyroll Merges with Funimation…Now Funimation Digital Downloads Will DisappearStaff PicksAlonso - Perfect DaysJanet - Housebound Drea - Players Follow us on BlueSky, Twitter, Facebook, or InstagramWithDrea ClarkAlonso DuraldeIfy NwadiweProduced by Marissa FlaxbartSr. Producer Laura Swisher

Critics are split on this new movie from Zelda Williams and Diablo Cody, but We're nearly unanimous, Lisa Frankenstein is a good time and you should go see it in theaters. Synopsis Set in the late 80's, Lisa is the weird new girl in school dealing with the grief of her mothers death and life in a new family with a wicked stepmother and kind of nice yet condescending stepsister. She spends her free hours talking to herself and pining for love in a Bachelor's cemetery, which is totally a thing. She has the hots for the editor of the school newspaper, and while chatting with him at a party, she drinks a spiked drink and goes into a psychedelic trip during a thunderstorm. Using 80's logic, the lightning resurrects Lisa's favorite grave resident unbeknownst to her. From there, it's that age old tale of the goth girl that keeps a reanimated corpse in the friendzone while they murder people for parts.  Review of Lisa Frankenstein Lisa Frankenstein is a mess, but it's a fun mess. As of recording, it sits at a solid 50% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, and I'm honestly not surprised. I predict this one will be divisive, but could ultimately become a cult classic from it's bizarre campy charm. The premise feels straight from the early filmography of Tim Burton, but unlike Burton, the freshman director Zelda Williams struggles with keeping a consistent style and tone throughout the film. Her background is in music videos, and it really shows in some of the narrative style of the movie, which relies heavily on visual shorthand more than hard earned character development and cause and effect. The script written by Diablo Cody of Juno and Jennifer's Body fame is the highlight of the film. It taps into a level of snarky and campy humor rarely seen outside of 80's teen romcoms. Like her other scripts, this one features sharp dialogue and amusing non-sequiters from supporting characters that makes the world fun to watch. The acting is great. Kathrine Newton who plays Lisa shifts from weird nerd to self assured goth murderess with aplomb. Cole Sprouse does great with comedic timing as the mute creature. Liza Soberano walks the line between condescension and likability really well as the step sister. Carla Gugino was the best at bringing the appropriate amount of camp to the stepmother. The main flaws in the movie are the disjointed tone and the arbitrariness of the plot. It would have been nicer to have more effort put into the setups for the major plot shifts and character changes. Without properly establishing cause and effect, the movie can feel confusing. But here's the thing. With all the nitpicks I could pick at, I was smiling and chuckling throughout the whole movie. I thought it was a blast, and I give it a lot of points for originality.  Score 8/10
