I wonder if anybody has posted a feature-length film to Bluesky yet.

Anyway, I’m going to post my first feature, *Hide and Creep*, to Bluesky, two or three minutes at a time.

Here’s the first two minutes and 22 seconds.

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

Actually it was Athena as a teen mentioning how many cultural references she got only through watching Family Guy, which seemed unnatural until I remembered that Looney Tunes served exactly that function for me for cultural references from the 30s, 40s and 50s.
which begs the question - what's your Moment?

I'm not sure yet what mine is, but hearing Greenday on the classic rock station is right up there with my daughter referring to my childhood as "the 1900s" as if it were the deep past of sainted memory.

You could tell me this is satire or it’s true, and I’d believe you either way.
President Trump says he decided to levy a 39% tariff on Swiss exports because Helene Budliger Artieda, director of the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs, “just rubbed me the wrong way.”

VAN SUSTEREN: The church -- that's a particularly troubling issue because you got a pastor, I purposely didn't name it, he's reportedly associated with ICE

NOEM: Thank you for not naming him. People don't realize that when you keep naming someone over and over, you increase the threats against them
