Quote-Unquote posted:Oh no, we're going to have to endure months of racist wankers whining about April being played by a black woman. Willing to place a cash bet on idiots saying something about how her surname means she's of Irish descent so she must be white. I was at a Director Q+A for Sorry To Bother You (this is in Dublin), and some guy asked Boots Riley if he had some Irish connection because of his name. Boots *in a voice indicating he might be talking to the dumbest motherfucker on the planet*: Yeah there's lots of reasons why a black guy in America might have an Irish surname, in this case my family were owned as slaves... Some guy, frantically backpedaling: Ah well, who knows how these things happen... Boots *in a voice indicating he's definitely talking to the dumbest motherfucker on the planet*: No, I'm actually completely sure about how that happened. Amazingly, I've actually forgotten the exact wording of that exchange which was somehow way more awkward than that, but kudos to Boots for being 100% real and then also moving on without making the rest of the Q+A weird as hell

As an Irish person I am deeply concerned about "Gaelic erasure" in media, a thing that is definitely happen. (I mean it does happen, but exclusively in the sense of British media claiming Colin Farrell and Paul Mescal as "British actors")

Fun fact, Stoker apparently got the idea for staking Dracula through the heart from a graveyard near my house in Dublin, where people who commit suicide were buried with stakes through their heart. Possibly a bit apocryphal. Definitely also influenced by his mother telling him bedtime stories about cholera victims being buried alive. Oh wait, none of that is fun.

Young Freud posted:The John Wick films especially have non-firing non-blank prop weapons because the director Chad Staheklsi was Brandon Lee's stunt double on The Crow and has basically vowed never to put anyone in that type of situation ever again as he's stunt coordinator and director. drat, that's fascinating trivia I was not aware. I must say the gunstuff looks pretty realistic in the Wicks franchise (within the heightened world and all the other stuff going on). I guess you lose a lot of the performance with a non-firinf prop, i.e. the operator grimacing, blinking, tensing under the recoil. But if your characters are all superhuman gun pros anyway it works that they no-sell the shot completely like Robert Patrick as the T1000

B-Rock452 posted:Ahhh I got mixed up with the dates. I do remember around that time he tore his quad completely off his pelvis which led to torn ab muscles requiring a fair amount of surgery. He really shouldn't have tried to wrestle while he was that juiced up, it was pretty much asking for an injury because body building for Hercules isn't the same as training for a wrestling match Remembering when a roided out Vince McMahon tore both quads simultaneously sliding into the wrestling ring for a TV bit E: Dave Bautista won the fight, even without the tiny glasses that would later become his trademark

And while Zoolander 2 was terrible it did give us Ben Stiller's directing/producing career which led to Severance being a thing.
