Seth Rogen Complains About Critics, Hollywood Can't Take The Heat l The H+A Podcast 147 Seth Rogen is promoting the new teenage mutant ninja turtles movie (2023) and isn't handling the critical reception very well. People are mad about April O'neil. People just don't like how kiddie the film feels. But instead of taking the criticism in stride, Seth Rogen is lashing out at the fans and critics. We talk about how this is representative of all of Hollywood as well as our “times” as a whole. This is a symptom of our economy as well as the “quiet quitting” trend.

Hollywood Can't Relate To You Anymore, The Batman, Uncharted, Scream l The H+A Podcast 106 In this new post woke era, movie messaging changed quickly. With war, inflation and pandemic recovery on our minds, it's difficult to watch movies that talk about woke issues. It feels out of touch and obviously pandering. Yet Hollywood continues to make these types of movies that tend to fall flat to viewers. Some movies are succeeding and changing with the times and those are the ones to watch carefully.

In August 2016, director David McKenzie gave us a satisfying modern Western focusing on two bank-robbing brothers played by Chris Pine and Ben Foster nabbing banks all over Texas with at least one Texas Ranger hot on their trail played by Jeff Bridges. This movie proves that Hollywood CAN still make good old-school films like this! It was also written by Taylor Sheridan as part of his “Frontier Trilogy” between Sicario and Wind River.This film nabbed four Oscar nominations, including for Best Picture which is of course lost the award that year to La La Land….wait sorry....I mean Moonlight...

“This moment is necessary as much as it is uncomfortable.” - Monty DeGraff (Comments on diversity in Hollywood June 2020) According to a 2019 survey of 1700+ post-production professionals (thanks to Blue Collar Post Collective), 1.5% of those surveyed identified as ‘African-American’ with over 80% identifying as ‘White.’ Let this sink in for a second...1% of people in post identify as African-American. How is this possible? Is there a systemic reason for this? Or on the contrary, should we just accept that “it is what it is?” Seasoned editor Monty DeGraff, ACE (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Law & Order, Daredevil, Man In the High Castle, Narcos: Mexico) worked in Hollywood post-production for 9 years before he met another black person like himself. Over the years, he’s seen very little increase in the number of black people working in post-production, largely because there has never been a real incentive to change it. In this interview, Monty and I address some of the following questions: Why aren’t black people getting the opportunities they deserve? In the midst of the COVID- 19 pandemic where many of us are forced out of work, can we finally take the time to examine our own responsibility in the racial epidemic that is happening in Hollywood? Can we honestly evaluate where our internal biases have informed the status quo? Can we recognize that white privilege doesn’t mean you had an easy life, it just means the color of your skin didn’t contribute to your hardships? This is an incredibly candid and uncomfortable conversation (as it needs to be) where Monty opens up about how he’s had to fight harder in this industry because he’s black, how internal biases inform the comfort level in the editing bay, and why white people need to start having these conversations with each other. If you have been feeling sad and helpless about racism and the mistreatment of black lives, please listen to this interview to gain insight into the black experience specifically in post from Monty’s perspective and hear his thoughts on what steps we can take collectively to make true and lasting change in the post-production industry.

How he never considered himself a mentor but naturally fell into it His advice on what assistants should be using to convince producers they can cut. Monty’s secret for how he fast-tracked himself from Assistant Editor to Editor. SPOILER: You have to ask. On diversity in Hollywood: How post-production in Hollywood is predominately white and how he’s had to navigate that to get the opportunities he’s had. What it’s like to go into a room and see the surprise on an interviewer’s face that you’re black and they weren’t expecting that. What football has to do with unconscious bias and how we can learn from it in our own lives. How we all have prejudices, regardless of race, and this is a moment to check ourselves. What Monty believes is the ONE thing that connects us to all people. How to see beyond color and find commonality beyond the superficial things that seem to separate us. How most black people believe they will encounter hostility working in white environments and how that affects them. Why Monty thinks white people need to have the race conversation amongst themselves and what specifically they can talk about to make forward progress. The importance of self-reflection and looking into our own hearts and minds to see how we are reacting to the world around us. White privilege doesn’t mean your life wasn’t hard, it just means the color of your skin wasn’t one of the reasons that your life was hard.

He graduated from the University of Rochester with a B.A. in History and then headed west to California. Through a classmate he landed a job as a page at ABC and from there quickly became an Apprentice Editor in their film department. This allowed Monty to join the MPEG just as non-linear editing was beginning to reshape television post production. Monty became an Assistant Editor on Star Trek: TNG and it was there that he received his first credit as Editor. In took 3 more years bouncing between being an Editor and an AE before Monty landed a job as Editor for Dick Wolf on Law&Order. He stayed there for 5 seasons , one of which won the Emmy award for best Dramatic series. Since then Monty has worked on shows big ( “Daredevil”, “Narcos: Mexico “, and “The Man in the High Castle” ) and small and everything in between. Monty’s love of craft continues to grow, as does the enjoyment he gets from working with talented, passionate storytellers. In addition to the pleasure of cutting, Monty has found great satisfaction from mentoring the next generation of editors. He currently working on a spinoff of the STARZ series “Power” called “Raising Kanan”.
