Free Software fundamentally misses the point. It fails on a practical, ideological, economic, and political level. Let’s examine precisely how (in a slightly different order for the purposes of presentation).

his other short film Mr. Night Has a Day Off, which you can watch here.


Good visual effects work. Yet funny how Mr. Night is just a humanoid cartoon with a texture of the stars.

The senior and the girl story I am working with @trueauracoral .


You are still writing that shared document?

The work is a well made propaganda piece for saving polar bears and respecting nature. It was made with association of National Bears International and National Parks Conservation Association. In that regard, the movie can be grouped together with Avatar and Interstellar.


I thought, when it opened, that is the Tony Scott produced, David Scott directed 2012 short about polar bears.

Also, to work like Avatar or Interstellar you need the get the numbers of these movies. There are undeniably better propaganda pieces. But those, more serious films, usually nobody sees. To get a real impact is to get a huge crowd to engage with the idea.

It's already written, we're story-boarding

I am aware. Not too long ago I listened to the author of Lithuanian best-seller "Pietinia Kronikas" by Rimantas Kmita, which was, surprisingly, his first novel. He is fascinated by Billie Eilish and her ability to make popular music with appeal, that has quality and substance in it. The author emphasized the need to make art read by others. When you are part of the writer's group and share your work, it is easy to get into the deep-end and create very artsy, but not popular works.

[icon reviews]Death Wish 2018 has a low rating due to politics

17% Rotten Tomatoes score. The movie got to be shit, right? Well when it comes to the Eli Roth's 2018 Death Wish ( the remake of the 1974 film with the same name ) you are not quite correct. In my estimate the film should be no less than 60%, based on its execution. Eli Roth is a good enough director to pull something like this off. And you can see that he is trying. The actors are also good. And the music by Ludwig Göransson is really fucking good. I mean this is the same guy who did the music for Tenet and Oppenheimer. He is really fucking good. Watching the movie, I saw that the movie is arguably a lot more watchable and a lot more satisfying than the 1974 original. What is different, is that the 1974 original was made in 1974. And since then the politics have changed.

[icon reviews]Backdraft 1991 is a HOT film

Ron Howard is a hell of a director. He knows how to get the image that he wants. And he knows how to do it so that it will hold up practically forever. His 1991 fire-fighters movie Backdraft is not an exception. The fire sequences are so real and so visceral in this film, despite being done 3 decades ago, that perhaps this film is even better when it comes to planning shots that hold up than his Apollo 13 movie ( where he used real weightlessness to shoot the space scenes ).

[icon reviews]Déjà Vu 2006 is Tony Scott's Minority Report

Tony Scott famously didn't care about the time travel plot of Déjà Vu which freaked out the writers of the film. As they said, he cared more about the action and surveillance aspects of the movie. He famously cared a lot about surveillance, as visible from his previous Jerry Bruckheimer collaboration Enemy of the State. And that means, that a sort of sci-fi surveillance movie, marks Déjà Vu as the closest thing Tony Scott did to Steven Spielberg's Minority Report.
