Show Dot Points The hosts express excitement for the upcoming episode. 'South of Midnight' features a unique art style and storytelling approach. The game explores themes of racial inequality and personal relationships. Gameplay mechanics include exploration and combat, though the latter feels unnecessary at times. Bungie's 'Marathon' is set to launch in September 2025 with a premium price model. The game will support cross-play and cross-save across platforms. The hosts discuss the potential success of 'Marathon' based on Bungie's reputation. HBO's 'The Last of Us' has been renewed for a third season ahead of its second season premiere. The renewal indicates confidence in the show's success. The hosts speculate on the narrative direction of The Last of Us series. Characters' emotional journeys are crucial in storytelling. Directorial choices can significantly impact the narrative experience. Narrative complexity in video games can lead to richer adaptations. The future of 'The Last of Us' franchise remains uncertain but promising. Audience reactions can sometimes disrupt the cinema experience. Innovative gameplay mechanics can enhance player engagement. Character development is key to audience connection. The balance between humor and seriousness in adaptations is delicate. Understanding audience demographics can inform marketing strategies.

The only podcast to give Edward Yang the time and space he deserves as one of the all time greatest directors (and Wilson's favorite director)!We end our coverage on Yang with what is considered to be his magnum opus, 1991's A Brighter Summer Day, an intimate epic of teenage angst, romance, and rebellion that also captures Taiwan in a specific era of political and social turbulence with incredible detail. Together, we discuss ABSD's unique visual palette compared to Yang's other non-period work, and go in depth into its thematic concerns regarding Taiwan on a scale both personal and national. Wilson highlights the virtuosic blocking in large crowd scenes, Eli makes a case for proper education as the salve for social ills, and Ben asks, can a film be “too perfect”?Are you lonesome?

Kevin Goetz sits down with acclaimed filmmaker Eli Roth. Eli burst onto the scene in 2002 with his indie horror hit Cabin Fever and cemented his reputation with the extremely profitable Hostel films. Known for his intense horror style and flair for marketing, Eli has built a hugely successful directing career. His latest film, the holiday slasher Thanksgiving, was released last year by Sony Pictures and he is currently working on a science fiction action comedy film, Borderlands, scheduled to be released this summer. Kevin and Eli have worked closely together using test screenings to hone Eli's movies. Their rapport is on full display as they delve deep into Eli's creative process, his career ups and downs, and the vital role testing feedback plays in the final films you see in theaters. Kevin and Eli Discuss Eli's Upbringing and Early Interest in Filmmaking (3:20)Eli became interested in film at a young age after seeing movies like Pinocchio, Star Wars, and Alien. He started making short films as a kid with help from a mentor. By age 11 he was making animated shorts, stop-motion films, and horror movies with his brothers and friends.Cabin Fever and Eli's Initial Resistance to Testing (27:09)Cabin Fever initially tested terribly but went on to be very profitable. Eli learned to analyze test data for what works rather than just looking at scores.Eli's Experience Working His Way Up in the Film Industry (31:42)Eli talks about his odd jobs in the film industry while writing scripts, including as an extra, a set production assistant, and Howard Stern's assistant on Private Parts.Working with Quentin Tarantino and Making the Hostel Films (37:12)Quentin Tarantino mentored Eli on Hostel, helping him add more realism and unexpected details. Eli discusses testing multiple endings for Hostel.Thanksgiving Test Screenings and Editing (42:15)Eli details his experience testing Thanksgiving and learning from audience feedback to hone the right tone, pacing, and violence level. He trimmed 15 minutes after the first test screening based on feedback. Eli says he has come to value test screening input thanks to insights from Kevin.Eli on the Power of Test Screenings (54:19)Eli thanks Kevin for helping filmmakers understand how to read test screening data and what audiences want. He advises filmmakers to listen to test feedback even if they don't agree.This fascinating conversation gives rare insight into Eli Roth's unique directorial vision and his journey to becoming one of Hollywood's most successful horror filmmakers. Eli's passion for the genre and gift for understanding audiences have been instrumental in crafting crowd-pleasing terror. His embrace of the test screening process, utilizing Kevin's expert analysis, demonstrates Eli's dedication to giving viewers the best experience possible.Host: Kevin GoetzGuest: Eli RothProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, and Kari CampanoFor more information about Eli Roth:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realeliroth/Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eli_RothIMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0744834/For more information about Kevin Goetz:Website: www.KevinGoetz360.comAudienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678Facebook, Twitter, Instagram: @KevinGoetz360Linked In @Kevin GoetzScreen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

I read from directorial to dirigible.     The word "dirge", in our current usage, basically just comes from the first word of a psalm that I think was said/sung at funerals.  https://www.etymonline.com/word/dirge#etymonline_v_8616 The audio is from possibly the most famous dirge/funeral song which is Chopin's "Funeral March". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D05AB8xs7qA     The word of the episode is "director's cut". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Director%27s_cut     Theme music from Tom Maslowski https://zestysol.com/     Merchandising! https://www.teepublic.com/user/spejampar     "The Dictionary - Letter A" on YouTube   "The Dictionary - Letter B" on YouTube   "The Dictionary - Letter C" on YouTube   "The Dictionary - Letter D" on YouTube     Featured in a Top 10 Dictionary Podcasts list! https://blog.feedspot.com/dictionary_podcasts/     Backwards Talking on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmIujMwEDbgZUexyR90jaTEEVmAYcCzuq     dictionarypod@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/thedictionarypod/ https://twitter.com/dictionarypod https://www.instagram.com/dictionarypod/ https://www.patreon.com/spejampar https://www.tiktok.com/@spejampar 917-727-5757
