I think the filmmakers had good intentions when they made SHIRLEY, unfortunately, they failed to stick to the essentials of storytelling. In this episode, Melanie does a fantastic job of illustrating what happens to a story when writers fail to create obstacles that progressively complicate the plot. (Progressive Complications are a big deal - you're going to want to pay attention to this one.) And I do a deep dive into the core event (aka the climax) and explain why it doesn't work and how you can avoid making the same mistake in your novel. -V.

Welcome to the DMF. Where I try to find out what motivates people behind the scenes in the world of acting and entertainment. Today on the podcast I am talking to filmmaker and comedian: Meagan X Johnson. It's movie talk. As always you can reach me on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook with my name Justin Younts. Thank you for listening and sit back and enjoy.What do you do for physical fitness? My favorite way to work out is to do a dance workout in the mornings. I totally recommend there's this dance studio called Forward Space in New York, and they have a virtual platform called the Forward Space Hub, offering 24-minute dance workouts that are perfect for anyone looking to get fit without feeling overwhelmed. For me, 24 minutes of cardio in the morning is what I need to feel good. It's not just about the physical aspect; a lot of it is a mental battle. I often find myself thinking, 'I don't want to work out,' but the idea of just 20 minutes sounds so easy and approachable. This mindset helps me overcome the initial resistance to exercise.       Dance workouts are unique because they allow you to be present with your body, feeling every tiny part of yourself as you move. It's almost meditative. I love Forward Space because they combine spiritual guidance with great music, creating an environment where I can enjoy my workout while connecting with my intuition and feminine side.       I used to be a big athlete in high school, playing volleyball and doing spin classes, but as I've grown older, I've realized that finding joy in movement is essential. The more I can trick myself into thinking I'm having fun rather than working out, the more likely I am to stick with it.       It's crucial to find exercises that work for you. I often act as my own trainer, pushing myself to do more while also being mindful of my limits. After intense workouts, I sometimes find myself completely exhausted, lying on the floor, but I use that time to engage in other activities, like practicing Duolingo.       Remember, fitness is a personal journey, and it's about finding what resonates with you. Whether it's dance, weightlifting, or yoga, the key is to enjoy the process and listen to your body. So, if you're looking for a fun and effective way to stay fit, consider trying a dance workout. You might just discover a new passion that transforms your approach to fitness!00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:05 - Physical Fitness Discussion00:05:05 - Reading Preferences00:07:31 - Critique on Education System00:09:13 - Music Preferences00:11:24 - TV Shows and Movies Discussion00:16:07 - Movie Analysis and Critique00:18:04 - Discussion on Strong Female Characters00:18:24 - Guest's Contact Information and Closing Remarks

I love it when Valerie and I study different theories and come to different conclusions about the movie. Crazy, Stupid, Love has great examples of slow/low tension and high/intense tension - it's a great movie demonstrating how tension works. However, it doesn't work so well when the 4 Story Questions are applied. Why? Because a multi-point-of-view story needs answers for all POV characters!

Along the way, they reflect on the film's themes, discuss its cultural impact, and share personal stories of experiencing the movie for the first time. Whether you're a lifelong fan or a newcomer, this episode is a celebration of everything that makes Jurassic Park legendary. Timestamps: 00:00:00 Introduction and John Williams Month announcement 00:01:22 Reflecting on the community's fundraising efforts for the animal shelter 00:02:01 Excitement for 2025 conventions, including WonderCon 00:05:28 Exploring the iconic T-Rex breakout scene and its practical effects 00:06:56 Nostalgia: First encounters with Jurassic Park as kids 00:12:28 Ethical science and Dr. Malcolm's iconic “Life finds a way” speech 00:25:00 Dinosaurs, birds, and the evolution of paleontological science 00:28:30 The emotional power of John Williams' score and its lasting legacy 00:36:00 Fun facts about the sound design, including the T-Rex roar Takeaways: Jurassic Park blends practical and CGI effects to create timeless visual storytelling.

The movie's cultural impact inspired a generation of paleontologists and remains a benchmark for adventure cinema. Memorable Quotes: “Life finds a way.” – Dr. Ian Malcolm (Jurassic Park) “John Williams mixes wonder and fear in his score, leaning one way or the other depending on the scene, but never forgetting the other side.” – Frank “If they opened up Jurassic Park today, my ass would be there so fast.” – Thomas “You didn't stop to think if you should.” – Dr. Ian Malcolm, reflecting on ethical dilemmas.

The guys review the film 'Daytime Revolution,' a look at the incredible week when John Lennon and Yoko Ono co-hosted the Mike Douglas Show.

This week on the show – Azazel Jacobs is here! Azazel is writer-director of the new Netflix drama His Three Daughters, one of the most deeply moving films of the year so far, and a stunning addition to a filmography already brimming with intriguing tonal blurs and beautiful realised characters. You might know Azazel for acclaimed works like The GoodTimesKid, Momma's Man, Terri, The Lovers and French Exit. This film, though, cuts closer to the bone for the filmmaker (and audiences) than ever before, telling the tale of a tense, tender family reunion – one taking place within a heavy cloud of preemptive grief. Elizabeth Olsen, Carrie Coon and Natasha Lyonne play estranged siblings Christina, Katie and Rachel in the film, summoned to their childhood home as their father enters his final days. In the quiet wait, ghosts from their childhoods reemerge and threaten to pull them further apart. In the emotional spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Azazel and Al break down why it is the painful wait for a loved one to pass away is rarely acknowledged in media – and delve into who these characters were for the filmmaker, who describes emerging from the making of this film a changed man.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

In BELFAST, Kenneth Branagh does something that most, if not all, new writers do. In a movie, it's kind of hard to spot because filmmakers have access to tools (like costume design, cinematography, and a musical score) that obscure it. In a novel, it's obvious —stark even — because all we have is black text on a white page. It's laid bare for all readers to see, and readers don't like it. Here it is ... in BELFAST the protagonist is passive. He's observing the action but not part of the action (and he's not a narrator either). So what can we do about it? Tune in to this week's episode to find out. - V."I felt like I should have liked it.

Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 41-minutes discussing Madame Web: or, how movies are products to be sold, which means they are marketed, and we were not convinced the marketing had sold us on the product; an exploration on the importance of marketing; and whether someone can be critical of a film prior to having seen it. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)Shirleon read the book, so Melvin asks a few questions about that.There's just a lot about Holes that works on a fundamental level, and it makes the film an enjoyable watch.Shirleon & Melvin both observe a comfortability in the film to showcase and explore mature, hard themes while remaining accessible to a family audience.Shirleon gives a more specific compare-and-contrast between the book and film.The legalistic metaphor of perpetual, listless hole-digging contrasted against deep-and-dynamic characters.Shirleon & Melvin agree; all the Sam and Kathryn flashbacks were stellar.Discussing and contrasting the two curses.Recommendations:Buy Lego!

MOVIE DISCUSSION: Geek Devotions Website, YouTube, and Comm Talk Podcast. Dallas from Geek Devotions joins Melvin in discussing M. Night Shyamalan's comic-book inspired follow-up to his break-out film: Unbreakable!  Topics:(PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 33-minutes of Melvin interviewing Dallas about the "Geek Devotions" project; what Dallas and Celeste seek to achieve in reaching out to the world of anime, video games, and netizen-culture; how most geek-experience with spirituality is negative (and they hope to change that); and how fringe, geek communities can satisfy the innate need we all have for community. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)Melvin asks Dallas about Geek Devotion's YouTube presence, which involves a LOT of shows, and how they fulfill their mission statement.Dallas had seen Unbreakable as a child, and Melvin wonders if there's anything he reflected on during this rewatch.For Melvin, this rewatch was nothing short of transcendental.Dallas, "[Unbreakable] feels fresh, but it also feels very real. It feels like a genuine story."There's a throughline about the relationship between masculinity, power, and gentleness that is explored in David Dunn's story, and the inclusion of his son Joseph adds more importance to David's decision making.Early Shyamalan films ask their audience to be patient with the mundane, and that patience is then rewarded.Why the "kids with guns" scene (as Melvin calls it) is so jarring, but also kinda works with the film's theming.And, of course, thoughts on the ending.Recommendations:Fallout (2024) (Series)Shōgun (2024) (Mini Series)Breathing Fire (1991) (Movie)MAILBAG: Send questions with your First Name and we'll answer them in future episodes!
