I created a shot today trying out my homemade single pupil version of The Eye I made from Alien Earth. I'm pretty proud of it, it photographs well. All shot practically as usual. #alienearth #theeye #miniatures #photography

Now reading! Getting right into horror lit for this spooky season. Huge thanks to @brianmcwriter.bsky.social & @poisonedpenpress.bsky.social for the Digital Review Copy of this one, extremely cool 🤲 #booksky

always grateful for you and the guys being an escape, the last ~10 years of my listening to WHM has been a genuine lifesaver 🙏

I've read way more this year than in so many years previously, pretty pleased with myself!

I definitely didn't get it on the first try, that's so mean by Framed 😅

This is the final Lynch movie I've never watched... Very nervous to finally see it!

There's just *so* many earworms all over it! This has gotta be my favourite of the bunch youtu.be/mk_g3_o_ELs?...

The music in the movie is so addictive, it's such magic.

Clooney is always *so* funny when he works with the Coens, it's the best. Love the soundtrack, it's brilliant!

Happy birthday Andrew!! Hope it's been a good one 😀
Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social) reply parent
absolutely, it really goes under the radar within their filmography! I adore it as this fun oddity right before they exploded with Fargo/Lebowski.

Generational chemistry between Cooper Hoffman and David Jonsson in this, and the whole cast really. This was so tense and heartbreaking, I was immediately invested in all the characters. Genuinely one of my favourite King adaptations, really special. #TheLongWalk

It really moved up the rankings for me this time!

God this movie is amazing. The mid century architecture, stunning production design and miniatures. The snappy dialogue that perfectly coalesces the Coens with Raimi. I love that it's ultimately a Capra riff through this unique lens, and stunningly so. #filmsky

these Behind the Scenes photos of the cityscape miniatures make me SO happy. "We took all our favorite buildings in New York from where they actually stood and sort of put them into one neighborhood" Dennis Gassner

it seriously works so well! The entire cast is built out so much, you really become invested in all of them making it to the end.

my wife read it over the past two weeks, she was really happy with it as an adaptation!
Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social) reply parent
it's great! I haven't read the book but my wife has, and she said they did a really great job with it.

Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm keen to see how I feel about it after this rewatch! I really love all of the mid-century production design and the snappy dialogue, but it's never been a Coen film that I've desperately wanted to revisit. I've only seen Intolerable Cruelty the one time as well! Excited to go back to that one.
Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social)
I hadn't revisited Barton Fink since first seeing it ~15 years ago, and this time around truly bowled me over. It's melancholy, surreal, and terribly relatable. The artistic nightmare in all its perspiring, horrifying glory.

*really* slight and subtly amazing, fantastic directorial debut

yesss so glad to hear it! The opening makes such an amazing first impression with the Gommage, and from there's it's back to back explosions of amazing art direction. You can really tell they just had so many great ideas and were encouraged to realise them!!
Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social)
Fascinating, a portrait of grief that only Cronenberg could conceive of. Mourning as a paranoid, painfully self-reflective state of undead filtered through a digital simulation of the afterlife. Cassell's protagonist is a newborn electronic zombie, complex and thorny and tragic. #filmsky
Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social) reply parent
Incredible costume design in this too, everyone looks so awesome.
Adam (@johngudmann.bsky.social)
rewatched Aquaman 2 It's *so* breakneck with the plot and mega unwieldy as a result, but James Wan's Saturday Morning Cartoon approach shines through. I'm an easy mark for this kind of superhero film though, wall-to-wall creatures and production design is my catnip. #filmsky

I'm really proud of myself, I've managed to hand sculpt & paint my own Trypanohyncha Ocellus aka The Eye from Alien Earth. As usual this photo was all done practically using real miniatures, lighting &this time my own homemade figure. #alienearth #theeye #toccellus #photography #scifi #miniatures

An extremely entertaining, gory time. Brie and Franco are both so game for the madness and their on-screen chemistry really rocks.

Eephus (2024, Dir. Carson Lund) Remarkably elegaic and bittersweet, truly captures the astonishing beauty and human connection at the heart of local sports. There's so much truth in this film. It pairs the idyllic with the plaintive in a way that bowled me over. #filmsky

A short while into Silksong and it feels like more Hollow Knight...a very good thing! It feels so nice to fall right back into that mysterious and charming world that I first experienced ~6 years ago, with enough new flair to make it fresh and challenging. A blast so far. #gamesky

Just rolled credits on Herdling, a really nice indie about guiding a herd of animals through treacherous terrain. It can be completed in a single setting, highly recommend it! Lovely presentation and music. #gamesky
