American film director
 
			POPULARITY
For our final chilling installment of Spooky Szn, we revisit the American horror film that fundamentally changed the genre in the early 2000s: Gore Verbinski's "The Ring (2002)."This isn't a slasher or a jump-scare festival; it's a cold, slow-burn mystery wrapped in a shroud of eerie, washed-out green and blue cinematography. We praise the masterful sense of looming dread created by the ticking seven-day clock and Naomi Watts' compelling performance as the investigative journalist Rachel Keller. "The Ring" stands out for its success in translating the chilling atmosphere of Japanese horror (Ringu) for a Western audience and its brilliant use of mundane technology—VCRs, telephones, and static-filled TVs—as conduits for supernatural terror.However, the hosts also tackle the film's legacy of techno-fear and its dark, nihilistic ending. We discuss the film's lasting cultural impact, which paved the way for a wave of J-horror remakes, and the truly unsettling nature of Samara's curse. The ultimate question we pose is the chilling moral dilemma the movie leaves us with: Is it better to accept your fate, or doom a stranger to save your child?Tune in for a deep dive into the horror classic that made a whole generation terrified of their own television sets.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next.

In Nerd Culture #231 duiken we diep in de galaxy far, far away, letterlijk én figuurlijk. Adam Driver onthult dat hij samen met Steven Soderbergh een Kylo Ren-film pitchte die door Disney werd afgewezen, terwijl Jim Carrey bijna de rol van Jack Sparrow speelde in Pirates of the Caribbean. Daarnaast bespreken we de toekomst van Star Wars (inclusief een on hold gezette Rey-film en Finchers bijna-project), de komst van een Horizon Zero Dawn-film in 2027, en het bizarre nieuws dat Netflix, Amazon en Apple interesse hebben om Warner Bros over te nemen.Verder checken we nieuwe trailers van Devil in Disguise, Predator: Badlands en Pluribus, plus een crossover tussen Transformers en G.I. Joe. En ja — er zijn zelfs SpongeBob-sneakers. Het wordt weer een aflevering vol filmnieuws, nostalgie, en een flinke dosis nerdy verwondering.Disney wees The Hunt for Ben Solo afIn een alternatieve galaxy far, far away hadden we misschien een Star Wars-film gekregen van Adam Driver en Steven Soderbergh. In een interview met AP onthulde Driver dat hij samen met Soderbergh en scenarist Scott Z. Burns twee jaar werkte aan een script getiteld The Hunt for Ben Solo. De film zou zich afspelen na The Rise of Skywalker en draaien om Ben Solo's zoektocht naar verlossing.Lucasfilm zou enthousiast zijn geweest over het plan, maar Disney trok uiteindelijk de stekker eruit. Volgens Driver zagen Bob Iger en Alan Bergman “niet hoe Ben Solo nog kon leven.” Een gemiste kans, want volgens de acteur was het “één van de vetste scripts” waar hij ooit aan meewerkte. In de podcast bespreken we waarom juist dit project fans had kunnen verzoenen met de sequel-trilogie — en of Disney te bang is geworden om risico's te nemen met Star Wars.Jim Carrey als Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean?Voordat Johnny Depp zijn iconische rol als Captain Jack Sparrow kreeg, was niemand minder dan Jim Carrey in beeld voor Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. Producent Jerry Bruckheimer en regisseur Gore Verbinski zagen in hem de perfecte mix van humor en charisma om Disney's nieuwe piratenfilm te dragen. In de vroege jaren 2000 was Carrey immers een gegarandeerde box office-hit.Maar Carrey sloeg het aanbod af om te werken aan Bruce Almighty, wat uiteindelijk ook een enorm succes werd. Volgens insiders zou zijn versie van Jack Sparrow een meer cartooneske, over-the-top piratenheld zijn geweest — meer Bugs Bunny dan Keith Richards. Uiteindelijk koos Disney voor Johnny Depp, wiens excentrieke interpretatie de film naar miljardenstatus katapulteerde. In de podcast bespreken we hoe anders Pirates of the Caribbean eruit had gezien met Jim Carrey aan het roer… en of dat misschien beter was geweest.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #23100:00:14 Kunst van een kijker00:03:40 Volgende Nerd Culture Watchparty00:05:45 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:07:00 Splinter Cell00:10:37 IT: Chapter One00:18:01 Gen V00:21:12 9-1-1: Nashville (helaas nog niet)00:24:12 Devil in Disguise Trailer00:27:34 Horizon Zero Dawn-film komt in 202700:35:48 Jim Carrey bijna Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean00:42:01 Netflix, Amazon & Apple azen op Warner Bros00:48:35 Adam Driver's afgewezen Kylo Ren-film00:52:48 David Fincher's geannuleerde Star Wars-project00:54:50 Rey-film tijdelijk on hold00:56:00 Winstgevendheid Star Wars eindelijk onthuld00:59:28 Predator: Badlands Trailer01:02:27 Transformers X G.I.

Day 24 – Episode 174: The Ring (2002)On Day 24 of The Conner & Smith Show's 31 Days of Halloween, Ryan and I revisit Gore Verbinski's The Ring (2002) — the film that defined early 2000s horror and made us all afraid of our TVs. We dive into how influential this American remake of Ringu truly was, from its haunting aesthetic to its eerie use of analog technology. Naomi Watts delivers a powerhouse performance as Rachel Keller, grounding the supernatural mystery in raw emotion and fear. We also try to wrap our heads around how exactly Samara manages to cross over through VHS tapes and landlines — a mystery that still chills us decades later.Support The Conner & Smith Show on Patreon here:

This week we dive into the cursed videotape phenomenon with "The Ring" remake by Gore Verbinski. Spike watched too many Ring movies and fried his brain, but it is all worth it to tell you about how this series evolves and changes over its various copies. We discuss the background to the film, and how it ended up being remade by Dreamworks. We also discuss the aftermath of "The Ring" being successful, and what movies came out of it. After analyzing the plot, we each pair "The Ring" with another movie for a pair of double bills!Thank you so much for listening!

The first Pirates film, released in 2003 before Lord of the Rings had completed brought the world many things: A fantabulous extravaganza of practical effects, combined with a surprisingly light smattering of digital VFX that would be leaned into a lot harder later down the line, The notion that the swashbuckler could still do big business (the hidden caveat was that Johnny Depp being strange absolutely must be present) Keira Knightley as a leading lady, Gore Verbinski as a major director, the supposition that audiences would flock to cinematic adaptations of Disney park rides (they won't, just this one. See above regarding Johnny Depp) and Geoffrey Rush as an all-time iconic big-screen presence embodying the most consistently enjoyable pirate of all time. But there's more going on, beneath the frothing surface, a fantastically witty, urbane and efficient script by Terry Rossio and Ted Elliott, one of the greatest scores ever composed (in a shockingly short amount of time) and Orlando Bloom's character actually being quite good, especially when held against Jack Davenport's Lawful Neutral Commodore James Norrington. This was a commission for Lincoln Alpern and features clips from the best audiodrama I've ever composed; Panther Soul, and the first chapter of the brand new Dracula adaptation Castle of the Moon.

He just finished filming seasons one and two of "CROSS" created by Ben Watkins, Amazon Prime's new psychological thriller based on the best-selling book series Alex Cross by James Patterson. Gill stars opposite Aldis Hodge and Ryan Eggold as Bobby Trey, a deadly, cunning ex-DC police officer from Shreveport who's motived by money and the reclaiming of his family's land, stolen by a racist predatory US government. Up next, Johnny Ray will be seen in cat form, in Oscar winner Gore Verbinski's highly anticipated new animated feature "Cattywumpus." It's purrhaps Gill's most hysterical transformation yet.This dynamic, versatile, potent performer might be best known for his soul-stirring performance as Kerwin, opposite Aden Young in the Ray Mckinnon, Mark Johnson, Melissa Bernstein Sundance series "Rectify." A darling amongst critics, exemplified by reviews like The New Yorker “A Quiet Marvel” and Vulture “There May Never Be a Show Like Rectify Again.”Gill's also fondly remembered for warming audience's hearts with his portrayal of Sam, an autistic man trapped in the bowels of slavery, America's greatest sin, on WGN's hit series "Underground" alongside Jurnee Smollett and Aldis Hodge.Another don't miss episode y'all!Our Motto: "We keep it GAME all day!"For information, Merch (T-SHIRTS/HOODIES IN BLACK, GREY & WHITE), and all things Rant Room!Screenwritersrantroom.comhttps://screenwriters-rant-room.printify.me/productsSubscribe, like, follow, share & 5-star review!@Hilliard Guess on all social mediaIG: @ScreenwritersRantRoom@Johnnyraygill@ShawnthemaestroWE ARE NOW OPEN TO SPONSORSHIPS AND BRANDING OPPORTUNITIES :Screenwritersrantroom@gmail.comWe invest countless hours per week to deliver the actionable content that goes into this podcast.

If you would like to give us feedback on how were doing follow us at: https://discord.gg/cd6sNqvnav https://beacons.ai/senornerdpodcast Smile is a 2022 American psychological supernatural horror film written and directed by Parker Finn in his feature directorial debut. Based on Finn's short film Laura Hasn't Slept (2020), the film stars Sosie Bacon as a therapist who witnesses the bizarre suicide of a patient, then goes through increasingly disturbing and daunting experiences that lead her to believe she is experiencing something supernatural. It also features Jessie T. Usher, Kyle Gallner, Kal Penn, and Rob Morgan, as well as Caitlin Stasey reprising her role from Laura Hasn't Slept. A feature adaptation of Finn's short was announced in June 2020, and the cast was added in October 2021. Principal photography began that month in New Jersey and ended in November. Originally set for release on the streaming service Paramount+, distributor Paramount Pictures opted to release the film theatrically after positive test screenings. Smile premiered at Fantastic Fest on September 22, 2022, and was released in the United States on September 30. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and grossed over $217 million worldwide on a budget of $17 million. A sequel, Smile 2, is scheduled to be released in October 2024. The Ring is a 2002 American supernatural horror film directed by Gore Verbinski and written by Ehren Kruger. Starring Naomi Watts, Martin Henderson, David Dorfman, and Brian Cox, the film focuses on Rachel Keller (Watts), a journalist who discovers a cursed videotape that causes its viewers to die seven days later. It is a remake of Hideo Nakata's 1998 film Ring, based on the 1991 novel by Koji Suzuki. The Ring was theatrically released in the United States on October 18, 2002, by DreamWorks Pictures. It was a box-office success, grossing $249.3 million worldwide on a $48 million budget, making it one of the highest-grossing horror remakes of all time. The Ring received mixed-to-positive reviews, with critics in particular praising the atmosphere and visuals, Bojan Bazelli's cinematography, Verbinski's direction and the performances of the cast (particularly Watts). At the 29th Saturn Awards, the film won in two categories: Best Horror Film and Best Actress (for Watts). The film is the first installment of the American Ring series, and is followed by The Ring Two (2005) and Rings (2017). The success of The Ring inspired American remakes of several other Asian and Japanese horror films, including The Grudge (2004) and Dark Water (2005). Plot Teenage girls Katie and Becca discuss an urban legend about a cursed videotape that causes whoever views it to die in one week. That night, Katie, who viewed it one week ago, is killed by an unseen force. At Katie's funeral, her mother asks her sister Rachel, a Seattle-based journalist, to investigate her daughter's death. Rachel discovers that Katie's friends all died in bizarre accidents at the same time as Katie's death. Rachel visits the Shelter Mountain Inn, where Katie and her friends saw the tape. She finds and views the tape; it contains strange and frightening imagery. She then receives a phone call from an unknown caller who whispers, "Seven days". Though initially skeptical, Rachel quickly begins to experience supernatural occurrences linked to the tape.

Perhaps the top colorist in his field, Stefan Sonnefeld joins us for our 200th episode! If you aren't aware of Stefan, you've almost certainly seen his work. Some of his recent projects include “Top Gun: Maverick,” “The White Lotus,” and “Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3.” His credit list includes some of the biggest franchises in our business, including “Star Wars,” “Star Trek,” “Jurassic Park,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Transformers,” and many more. Just a few of the A-List directors and producers he has worked with are: Tony Scott, Ridley Scott, Michael Mann, Martin Scorsese, Zack Snyder, Tom Cruise, Michael Bay, Bradley Cooper, Steven Zaillian, Spike Jonze, Gore Verbinski, Tim Burton, Matt Reeves, JJ Abrams, George Clooney, Tony Gilroy, and Judd Apatow.So what does it take to be a top colorist in Hollywood, working for some of the biggest personalities in the business?“Well, it's not just the director, it's a lot of people now… So it's a team sport. Everybody plays a part in it. And it's why it's so enjoyable for me. You have to involve a lot of people, but in general, the director, let's say that's the main person. You have to have a good relationship with that person and you have to be able to interpret what they're saying and get that onto the screen. And to do it quite quickly too, because it's a lot of effort and work and money that goes into these projects. And some people talk in technical terms. And some people, like a Michael Mann for instance, talk through emotions. Like, ‘Hey, [the character is] very this [way] in the scene. And he's feeling this. And this is what's going to happen. And this is what just happened. And therefore this is what I want.' And I'm sort of interpreting that, in a color way, and [I'll] put it on the screen and he'll be like, ‘great, that's it!' Or, ‘no, that's not what I meant. It should be this.'”—Stefan Sonnenfeld, Senior Colorist, Founder and CEO, Company 3Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode.Learn more about the Dolby Institute and check out Dolby.com.
