I’ve wanted to do this for a while now and figured this was a great time to do so. Last day of vacation and I wanted to single out a very select few people who have been there for just about every step. I’m sure I left a couple people off the list and I’m sorry if that’s you.
Back home next week and ready to get back to work.
Anderson is out if town, but that doesn’t stop these 2 from covering the first 2 weeks of December as well as the best films they’ve seen since the last time they talked at you.
This week I recount a twitter thread from a successful filmmaker. Christopher McQuarrie posted 25 tweets on October 23rd of this year, including many words of wisdom and points to think about, no matter what creative field you’re trying to make a living in. His feed and this thread have since been removed from twitter for reasons unknown to me, so I wanted to share it with you directly. I’d like to thank Superfan Giovanni for bringing this to me not once, but twice.
I also give a brief update on the latest with the Groupers release.
Greg and Anderson get to the rest of the November releases that have them interested, but not before talking about some of the movies they’ve seen since the last episode that include The Irishman, Terminator: Dark Fate, Dolemite is My Name, Danger Close and Primal. Their picks for the their 1979 films are also unveiled.

I talk a lot about aggregators, what they are and what they do and how I avoided the biggest aggregator meltdown the industry has ever seen. Amazon’s questionable release process is also talked about with some news there. What I didn’t mention is this, the president of my Distribution Company was at the forefront of the aggregator meltdown and he did a very candid interview with Alex Ferrari on Indie Film Hustle. If you’d like to know more you can hear that episode here.
Recorded the DVD commentary with Nicole Dambro and Milan “Miki” Janicin a few days ago and the first 13 minutes of that can be heard in this week’s update. I also talk about all the fights Miki and I got in to on the set of the movie before throwing to the commentary excerpt.

We only get to the first Friday of November on this one. Greg has seen the new Terminator and has some great things to say about the new Blumhouse Production, Adopt a Highway as well. The Current War: Director’s Cut and Jojo Rabbit are loosely reviewed by Anderson.
Next week we’ll release a fat episode with lots of chatter about the rest of November, 2019.

The power is out at my place, has been for hours, so this one is a quickie. Talk a little bit about putting the DVD commentary together and the apparent end of the world that is happening around me.
Thanks for following along.

The trailer is done and the TVOD release is coming sooner than expected. I talk about the how this is a great thing, an exciting thing and how I’m now behind on the DVD side of things as a result. I also ramble about a job I’m in the middle of and a meeting I’ll be having in November to finally talk about a movie not called Groupers.
Thanks for following along.
