That’s fair. Sony hasn’t done much lately with their own live action Spider-Man related projects to deserve the benefit of the doubt but I’m willing to be surprised. Nic Cage leading the series is at least enough to get me to give it an honest chance.
It’s a biopic about getting Rocky made.
The official logline for “I Play Rocky” reads: “A struggling actor with a partially paralyzed face and a speech impediment writes a script that a big movie studio wants to buy, but he refuses to sell it unless he gets to play the lead. Turning down an offer of life-changing money, he instead works for pennies to get the movie made with himself in the starring role. The movie becomes the biggest box office hit of 1976, garnering 10 Academy Award nominations and winning Best Picture.”
But even without that context I don’t understand why that’d be strange. Loads of biopics have been made about famous actors who’ve appeared in lots of films with a much less interesting story than how Sly brought Rocky to the screen by gambling on himself.
Jeff Bridges as the least grumpy version of Harrison Ford ever portrayed on film!

No. She’s been in custody since she was convicted on March 6th which is 17 months short of her 18 month sentence.

I love that! It’s a funny anecdote and very endearing. John Williams is a giant in the industry but didn’t seem to have an ego about himself when it came to the daunting task of scoring such a powerful film.
I think that’s the kind of attitude you’d want from a composer for a film like Schindler’s List. Someone that recognizes the importance of the film and who is going to work their ass off to do the film justice rather than someone waltzing in and treating it like they’re working on a run of the mill movie gig.

Can you please ease up on the submissions? 9 posts in 4hrs is excessive and could be considered borderline spamming the instance we’re hosted on. Keep in mind this is a general purpose instance and not specifically catering to entertainment media like Lemmy.film used to so we’re not trying to flood the local feed. None of your posts broke double digit upvotes either so it might be an indication that you need to be a little more discriminating.
What kind of genres are you into? It’d help narrow down recommendations.
I’m a big fan of For All Mankind. It’s an alt-history scifi series from Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica, 2003). The fourth season just concluded last month too, so it’ll keep you occupied for awhile.

It’s “kid gloves.” It refers to gloves made of kid leather, the skin of a young goat. Not a child’s glove.

There’s actually a simple explanation for that. Much like the “conservative/christian entertainment” industry the alt-tech movement is primarily composed of failures and hacks who couldn’t cut it in the mainstream field.
Bigotry such as the transphobic rhetoric the OP of this thread was referencing is objectively bad. And I have zero interest in your attempt to defend child abuse.
Aha! You are bad because of the way you think. The classic.
Yes, dumb too.
If you don’t understand one of those positions is objectively bad then that says a whole lot about you.
You say you’ve never even seen Doctor Who before so by your own admission your opinion is uninformed and therefore offers nothing of substance. This is a community for discussing movies and television. Not your personal soapbox for airing your uninformed culture war grievances. Take that somewhere else.
