His first two movies had crews of about 40 people. Star Wars? 950.
Matt Colville?@mattcolville.bsky.social · yesterdayOne of the things I love about Lucas is how he shot that movie like a documentary. No (or very few) master shots, because why do you need a master shot if you're shooting a real place everyone already knows? Documentarians don't always GET a master! Which pisses off the stage crew because....
Reading JW Rinzler's The Making of Star Wars and I think I get why Lucas wanted to "go back and fix" that movie. But I can also see why he can't have that. Fox fucked him on the schedule, forcing the crew to work 24/7 to get the film done. So...
Watching The Sting for the first time, I'm not sure I recognized how much of Brad Pitt's acting style is just him doing his Paul Newman personation.
It was written over a period of time by a number of authors, bound together way later. It looks like it was written such that each folded page was a single topic. Maybe you checked them out from something like a library? Or students passed them around in class? www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...
A medieval manuscript has confounded scholars for centuries. Have they been reading it wrong all this time?

Alex Cox's theory about the Prisoners identity is well reasoned, well researched, and plausible. Whether I believe it, I don't know. I got to think about it. But I like the idea that it means the Prisoner and Professor Quatermass might have both worked at the British Experimental Rocket Group!

This is a really interesting book. I love anyone who thinks this seriously about fiction. Short, too! He builds an argument that the show answers the question: who ran the Village, and was the Prisoner a spy? www.amazon.com/Am-Not-Numbe...

Francesca's work on the Timescape Map (which is in this book I think!) was just amazing. She put a lot of thought into how to represent some weird ideas visually.

John Brolin's character was so interesting to me. A CIA yuppie.

It's like one of those 1970s Jack Kirby black light posters!!

War Dog collars implemented for PCs in THE CONDEMNED! Amazing!!
The dude who popularized the term "light-year" was aware of how weird it was as a term. He compared it to measuring distance in "walking hours" which I find completely charming! And pretty close to how we measure distance here in LA!

Over on VoynichNinja (an excellent discussion board with lots of solid linguistic & cryptological work), someone posted this new resource based on my (credited!) work that lets you visualize structure & rearrange quires, bifolia, and pages!

I felt like the new Trek movies missed a major opportunity when they decided to resurrect the idea of Khan without first bothering with Space Seed. Khan and Kirk, at each others throats from the start, forced to team up against a greater evil. At the end of Khan I, sensing victory, he betrays Kirk
