Platonic chemistry is going to kill me.

Established characterization is clearly between Hulk and Catwoman and how can I cope with that.

FROBISHER/SIXSMITH ON THE BEST CHEMISTRY BALLOT fuck yes.

Viciously Optimistic - Why I Love THE CABIN IN THE WOODS

My dad just asked me, after viewing the movie, “how could every country have failed?” and it prompted me to explain why I don’t see the end of the film as being quite so bleak as it seems.

In every scenario, humanity overcame the evil they were faced with. With varying degrees of success, maybe, and not without considerable struggle and suffering, but in ever single nightmare scenario, humanity overcame.

Unleashing monolith death bringers is certainly going to put the world through a certain kind of hell, but they got put underground before, why not again?

What the end of the movie could easily signify is humanity’s chance to deserve their place on Earth, to earn it. Not without struggle and suffering and some pretty substantial losses to life, infrastructure and environmental sustainability, but you know, we’re kinda fucking all that up on our own.

Anyway, I think the ending to THE CABIN IN THE WOODS is more hopeful than the giant hand of fiery rock crash through the earth and enveloping the camera in darkness would lead us to believe.

This is eons better than any GIRLS parody has the right to be. Love love love it. Also, SO ACCURATE. Ugh, LA, you're killing me.

These are photos from a new project I’m starting in response to the “Fake Geek Girls” buzz that’s been going around.

“All Geeks are Real Geeks” or the “Nothing to Prove” project. This is just a simple project I’m working on to help give all cosplayers of any gender, shape, size, color, etc. the confidence they need to do something they love.

All Geeks are Real Geeks, because everybody starts somewhere, and there is no person in the world that has the right to tell anybody else what they can and can’t be.

I took photos of cosplayers at Ikkicon VII, holding up a small sign that reads “Nothing to Prove! All geeks are real geeks.”

I plan on continuing this project at more conventions I attend, and I hope this helps give people the confidence they need to cosplay. Because cosplay is for everybody. And the Nerd Culture is for everybody. And guess what?

It doesn’t matter what other people say.

Leonardo DiCaprio cut his hand while the cameras were rolling on the set of Django Unchained and kept moving through the scene, never breaking character, and his real-life bloodied hand made it into the final version of the film. During one take of that scene, DiCaprio unintentionally slammed his hand into glass, creating a gash that later required stitches. But that didn’t stop him from doing his job. As his hand bled quite visibly, DiCaprio kept going, even using the hand as a new dramatic prop. At one point he smears his bloodied hand over Broomhilda’s face in an act of evil dominance. And Broomhilda (Kerry Washington) looks horrified as he does it. (Perhaps Washington wasn’t acting!) And that was the take that director Quentin Tarantino kept in the film. (Source)

“At one point he smears his bloodied hand over Broomhilda’s face in an act of evil dominance. And Broomhilda (Kerry Washington) looks horrified as he does it. (Perhaps Washington wasn’t acting!)”

Okay, I keep seeing this post without anyone commenting on that. Am I the only one who finds the idea of a white guy literally rubbing bodily fluids on the face of a POC coworker without her consent really not okay? Like, I get that actors do a lot of difficult shit and stuff, but that’s just a douchey thing to do. I really hope that Kerry knew and was okay with it.

I actually commented on it when it first came around my dash. Being an actor who has had fists slammed into walls centimeters from my head, been spit on, and been manhandled without my consent during scene work, this struck me as being uncool, regardless of the gender, race, and industry pull of the respective participants. However, and I’ve only seen the movie once so I don’t remember perfectly how this scene was cut, my hope would be that Kerry was aware of his injury and willingly running with the scene through multiple takes, rather than just horribly surprised by the sudden appearance of actual blood on her face.

But I mean, that’s my hope because it’s professional and human courtesy to not rub blood on someone’s face without their permission or awareness. The scene, and Kerry’s work in it, is astonishing. So I’m really hoping she was using the circumstances to further her own work, rather than being relegated to being a tool for Dicaprio’s.

I can’t imagine they did the scene more than once, either, since dealing with the continuity of where the blood was on his hand, on her clothing, etc., would have been a nightmare of epic proportions. It’s a very interesting (if potentially horrific) scenario, I’m curious as to how it went down.

Ah, I missed your original commentary! Glad to see your commentary on it here, and also that (as an ask sent to you later on said) Kerry did not have real blood smeared on her and agreed to the fake blood smearing.

For those who didn’t see it, deliberatepace sent me a note that he had actually discussed this with one of our friends who worked on the film and was on set. She and I talked about a lot of things that happened on set, but this was before the movie came out and I saw it, so I hadn’t gotten to talk to her about this particular scene yet. He saaaaaaid:

Well, I found out for you. He never smeared his actual blood on Kerry and they did blood and non-blood takes for the rest of the movie (in re: to costumes, since he got the other actors’ clothes covered with the stuff and thus recreations of the blood covered clothes had to be made) because Quentin didn’t know if he was going to want to use the blood take (though I’m pretty sure anyone who has seen any of his movies could have told him he was). Info courtesy if a friend who was on set.

So yay, we can all go back to being amazed by everyone’s performances and hoping someones just GIVES LEO HIS DAMN OSCAR ALREADY.

#django unchained #quentin tarantino #leonardo dicaprio #kerry washington

Please read @eruditechick's note at the bottom. Leo's blood was never on Kerry Washington's face. We got this information directly from someone who was on set that day and most of the days. This person told us many amazing things about the shoot - it was like a mini commentary! Point is - everyone rest easy!

SHOWRUNNERS: A DOCUMENTARY > Kickstarter!

Often described as the most complex job in the entertainment business, a showrunner is the chief writer/producer on a TV series and, in most instances, the show’s creator. Battling daily between art and commerce, showrunners manage every aspect of a TV show’s development and production: creative, financial and logistical.

Showrunners: A Documentary Film is the first feature documentary that delves into the creative and chaotic world of the showrunner. You’ll be taken inside the lives and minds of todays top TV Showrunners, who have opened up the world of your favorite TV shows to us and given access to their writers rooms, their production sets while filming, production meetings, edit bays as well as on to the red carpet. As well, we’ll take you behind the scenes at special events like ComicCon and WonderCon with featured showrunners and actors from such beloved series as Lost, Bones, Boardwalk Empire, Revenge, Fringe, Big Bang Theory, House, Person of Interest, Sons of Anarchy, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, Castle, Spartacus, House of Lies & Once Upon a Time.

If this is something you want to see (duh), donate to the Kickstarter!
