Podcasts about Ruby Sparks

Ruby Sparks (2012) is up next on our Unlikeable Protagonists Month and wow is the guy in this unlikeable. Consent issues aside, the biggest crime he commits against humanity is being a terrible author. How dare you make us listen to terrible prose. We shall not stand for this. We have a lot of fun chats about men written by women and women written by men in this one, so you're in for a treat. Join us next week as we watch American Psycho (2000)

Not Okay (2022) kicks off our unlikeable protagonist month and the beginning of our comeback tour! Did you miss us? We missed you!

Bonus fun factor, we also get to rate this film in terms of O'Briens! A winner of an episode all around! Join us next week as we watch Ruby Sparks (2012)

JOIN US ON PATREON: patreon.com/ivebeenmeaningtowatch. Listen in as we welcome the brilliant Nicole Eva, also known as Evasive, for a lively discussion about the manic pixie dream girl trope in film and TV. With her keen eye for movie analysis, we examine this problematic trope, its harmful effects, and its prevalence in the media. Amidst our discourse, we touch on recent controversies in the entertainment industry, such as a questionable joke on SNL, the show's toxic work environment, and the relentless pressure to produce a new show every week. Our conversation doesn't stop there. Together, we tackle the issues of shows and movies being abruptly removed from streaming platforms, causing disappointment and frustration among viewers. We also delve into the decline in quality of fashion and costuming in some shows, highlighting the need for historical accuracy. Through this, we express our collective disappointment with the lack of transparency in the industry and its impact on us as viewers. We end our discussion by examining the portrayal of manic pixie dream girls in films such as 500 Days of Summer and Ruby Sparks. We unpack the complexities of this trope, from its origins with male writers to its subversion by female writer Zoe Kazan in Ruby Sparks. By offering alternative endings and analyzing the trope's impact on relationships and gender roles, we aim to bring a fresh perspective to this well-worn trope. So, tune in for an enlightening conversation about film, TV, and the roles we see on our screens. (0:00:05) - SNL and Warner Bros.

Realize I no longer want to try to control this world - Online Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister.I think some of you realize deep down that you can't control the world, but you are still trying daily. You try with people around you or your cat or dog, and you try with the environment. You try to have an opinion, and of course, it doesn't matter what that attempt is. It doesn't go very well. We are never delighted when we're trying to control the world, even when we try to control the body. Maybe you try to control the weight of your body or the shape of your body, or the look and appearance of your body: parents and children, partners and lovers, other community members. Whenever we think we can control anybody, we are lined up with the ego and won't be happy because we weren't meant to be controllers. We are terrible controllers. We can see it's been a mess, if we are honest. We're never really in control of the situation. And when we finally realize that, we forgive it and feel so happy instantly. Enjoy the profound commentary on "Ruby Sparks" by David Hoffmeister.To learn more about the Weekly Movie Workshops, look here: https://bit.ly/ACIM-Movie-Workshop.You can watch the introduction to the movie workshop on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/MOFf0OUqeWcLook for more info on David Hoffmeister and upcoming events: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.The movie workshop was recorded Saturday, February 18, 2023, Online.

Entre la série Girls qui a du mal à remettre en question ses privilèges et les séries Normal People ou Conversation with Friends qui tombent parfois dans le cliché de l'ado torturée, difficile de trouver sa place. Des séries comiques comme Fleabag s'essaient à l'exercice de l'anti-héroïne, proposant un personnage féminin subversif… et ça marche. Si toutes les séries ne peuvent pas aller dans l'excès comme cette comédie, les années 2020 ont permis l'arrivée de nouveaux personnages millenials. D'Arabella dans I May Destroy You à Maggie dans Everything I Know About Love, qui a dit que les femmes millenials ne pouvaient pas montrer leur vulnérabilité sans tomber dans l'excès ? Qu'attendons-nous de cette nouvelle décennie ? De nouvelles représentations sont-elles encore possibles ? Promis, on parlera de la série Insecure dans un prochain épisode ! ;) _____________________________________________ Sources : à retrouver dans la description de la vidéo Youtube (désolée je manque de caractères !) : https://youtu.be/Erba6af8dJQ _____________________________________________ Je suis Sophie Gliocas, autrice de young adult.

All work and no play makes Calvin a dull boy in this week's spotlight film, 2012's RUBY SPARKS. From the directors of Little Miss Sunshine Johnathon Dayton and Valerie Faris, it centers on author Calvin Weir-Fields (played by cinema's favourite weirdo Paul Dano), who after a prolonged episode of writer's block, writes a scene about a woman named Ruby Sparks, (played by the film's writer, Zoe Kazan), his ideal partner. After writing about Ruby and feeling she's almost real, Calvin dreams about her and when he wakes up, she's in his house. As much a psychological horror story as it it a romance, this movie puts the manic into manic pixie dream girl.

In the fourteenth episode of "Double Feature Movie Club" — Cade, Diane, and Ava discuss the films Boy (2010) and Ruby Sparks (2012). Two indie movies — one early Taika Waititi film and one Zoe Kazan/Paul Dano romantic fantasy. Watch the video version at: YouTube.com/CadeThomas Double Feature Movie Club is a weekly movie review show with a retro vibe. Two movies. Two hosts. One rambling conversation. We often review indie movies that it's our first time watching. We often go off-topic.

Ending Paul MAYno with the one and only Ruby Sparks, thank you to those who commented and DMd us with this as a suggestion!

¡Muchas gracias por escuchar este episodio! En este episodio nos dedicamos a hablar sobre el cine nicaragüense de la década de los 80's. Unos meses después de la caída de la dictadura militar de los Somoza, en una Nicaragua que se reconstruía a cómo se podía, se funda el Instituto Nicaragüense de Cine. Incine fue el órgano estatal que se dedicó a la producción y distribución de una industria fílmica marginal si se quiere pero que logró a través de redes de solidaridad y coproducciones entre varios países, producir piezas muy interesantes o al menos, llamar la atención de cineastas reconocidos a nivel latinoamericano y gringo. Es para muchos el momento de la historia donde más cine se produjo acá. Se hicieron largometrajes de ficción como Walker, Sandino y Alsino y el cóndor… esta última la única película que fue nominada a mejor película extranjera a los Oscars en 1983. Pero producciones hubo para mencionar largo rato. Desgraciadamente, el cambio de régimen en los 90's se llevó en la balastra muchas cosas, entre ellas, INCINE y el ministerio de cultura. La recomendación de la semana es Ruby Spark.. o la chica de mis sueños, es una peli dramática con cuestiones cómicas que se estrenó en 2012 bajo la dirección de Jonathan Dayto y Valerie Faris. Que capaz les suenan porque hicieron Little Miss Sunshine. Con un guión escrito por Zoe Kazan que es la misma Ruby, vemos a un prominente escritor, interpretado por Paul Dano que crea a un personaje del que se enamora. Y llega a ser realidad en la vida del escritor. Bichas y cine es un podcast centrado en el séptimo arte. Es conducido por Ernesto Valle de Nicaragua, a quién escucharás hablando y comentando sobre películas que ve -ya sean recién estrenadas o clásicas-. Todo esto mientras bebe bichas (cervezas, coloquialismo nicaragüense). Pronto más reseñas sobre películas recién estrenadas o aun en cartelera. También recomendamos una que otra películas clásicas o independiente. Seguinos en redes sociales: Instagram: @bichasycine | Twitter: @bichasycine Queremos animar a qué veas más películas. A veces uno cuando ve los films no los entiende y se pregunta: ¿Soy yo o es que no se entiende? Bichas & Cine nació para que te sintás acompañado y formés un gusto y consciencia de lo que ves en la pantalla grande -y pequeña ¿por qué no?-. De vez en cuando, tendremos uno que otro invitado. Gente que como Ernesto, le gusta ver películas. Cada 5 capítulos, se le dedicará un episodio a un director o a un país productor. Apoyanos para que este #podcast le llegue a otros personas tan interesadas en las películas como vos, con estas pequeñas acciones: Dejá una buena reseña. Rankeanos con 5 estrellas.

Ruby Sparks es la historia de un joven escritor que crea a la mujer de sus sueños a través de un personaje ficticio que después cobrará vida. Miroslava y Herminio la comentan junto a 500 Días con Ella y hablan de sus experiencias en relaciones amorosas.

Sometimes we wish for that perfect something to complete our lives. It might be something just out of reach, someone, an idea. But what happens when that idea comes to life? Ruby Sparks follows the concept of how a man can want a woman from afar but never really know her. Love her from his own ideas of her personality, and not have room to adapt. Learning as he goes, Calvin and his creation, Ruby, find that a person is more complicated than its fictional counterpart. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/twotakespodcast/support

This week L&P play catch up with Phil returning to Apple TV & Chris Evans' family crime drama Defending Jacob + finally getting Laurie's thoughts on bearable kids' TV shows including minimalistically magical Zig & Sharko. Meanwhile in a mini movie roundup, Laurie covers cult sci-fi favourite (but perhaps not for much longer?) Serenity by writer/director Joss Whedon & dips into the late 90s with poor follow-up Jurassic Park: The Lost World; Phil comes back at him with Paul Dano & Zoe Kazan philosophical romcom Ruby Sparks and quiet, controversial John le Carre spy thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy featuring an older than usual Gary Oldman. We also catch up with some of your emails - in particular one coming back at us with our opinions on Netflix fantasy adventure Shadow & Bone. Get your thoughts in too! flixandfilm@gmail.com or @flixandfilm on Twitter.
