A fun thought : inside the mind of a putative PTA on the cinematic move as Scroob types : You'all in the Industry are burning energy on the awards circuit, expenditure otherwise channeled into art, while I, thank God, am doing it. You're chatting about the dream over cocktails. Me? I'm inside the dream; I'm burning film. And just wait till you get a load of me.

If this was the film he had in mind for Haddish when Phantom Thread came out, then he has been cooking this project up since at least 2017.

Quote from: jzakko on February 11, 2024, 09:28:34 AMOne thing that just occurred to me is the fact that he's using a Girls Trip alum in Regina Hall. Feels all the more clear that his Haddish enthusiasm has fizzled.

Like all of us, he saw The Card Counter.

Quote from: max from fearless on February 02, 2024, 02:52:45 PMFreakin love seeing Wood Harris who is incredible, get to play in the PTA sandbox. PTA don't give a fckkkkkk. This is why I get hyped for this boy. His projects are singular af, no pandering to who's hot who's not. There's no fear in our boy! Wishing them all the best for this shoot. WTF is this movie!?!?!

Simply enough, it is always exciting to see an alum from "The Wire" get action in a PTA feature...of course Michael K. Williams as Tariq Kalil was a serendipitous moment for this fanboy.

Someone must have mentioned the following

Since we're just blueskying here "to pass a piece", to no real effect—Has anyone noticed a vibe of irreverency hovering about the production?

Examples : Leonardo's antic telephone call; and his skulking along the overpass; and his questionable suit; and some of the seemingly light-hearted signage?

Is a comic element explicable in all this?

But since PT is the Triple Tone (a breathtaking rarity in narrative art), Scroob imagines that the humo(u)r of BC Project may be integrated into a more complex mood-engineering. Well, obviously.

Whatever BC Project turns out to be at its premiere, no doubt it'll be far more than that.

Have y'all seen the pic where Leo is cleanshaven and wearing a suit alongside Teyana Taylor? Wonder if they're shooting semi-sequentially and the hippie facial hair comes at the beginning, before he "cleans up"? (And, yes, I know the entirety of the facial hair could be makeup)

Crazy level of action scenes.
The film that keeps roiling through my head -- and I know it won't have this level of futurism -- is Minority Report.

But I keep getting tripped up on Unforgiven, too: a film that turned a genre on its head while commenting on it.
