Indie film has a strange new problem: Buyers are hungry, and audiences are showing up. There just aren’t enough movies to buy. Ashley Cullins talks to top dealmakers about what’s driving the shortage and what could fix it: mrf.lu/2dyqc

Summer box office (domestic) finished 9.4% ahead of the pre-pandemic average, per FranchiseRe, and 26.6% ahead of last year. Year-to-date gross is now down just 7.2% from pre-pandemic levels. A pretty remarkable comeback.

The theatrical box office is on track to set a new record this year. And only 17 days into August, it has already surpassed every August from the past decade.
Audiences are showing up like never before. The movie business isn’t dying, it’s thriving.

“I feel a real responsibility to try and get as much on screen for the audience as possible to give the audience the fullest flavor,” says director Christopher Nolan, whose films are known for their scale, spectacle, and immersive worlds. cbsn.ws/49arCMq

Advice to young filmmakers:
1. Screenplays are the currency of all film business, so work on your writing skills.
2. The film business is built to cycle you out. Work hard every day to give it a reason not to.
3. Make the movies only you can or would make. That’s your voice.

If you call Film LA, the very first option is to report a production you think should be shut down for not having a permit.
The third option is to try and get a permit. If you don't get your application in my 10am a week before the shoot, they will not process your application. Not 10:05, not 12pm. Must be in by 10am. When you speak to the person at Film LA, they truly sound like they don't even want you to shoot there.
I hope whoever our next mayor is shuts down Film LA and makes it free and easy to get a permit.
LA has the best crews, the best casts, the best weather. It shouldn't be cheaper and easier to fly to Oklahoma and shoot there than it is to shoot at home. It's time to bring filmmaking back to LA.
Imagine how much better this game would be if the @BuffaloBills were playing the @Seahawks 😖. #SuperBowlLX

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

I have never seen a contested catch like this ever be called anything but a catch. Even as a DB you know that if it’s even a Tie it will go to the WR. Can’t believe this decided the game.
