During 12 Monkeys (1995), Terry Gilliam doubted Brad Pitt could handle the character’s frantic delivery. A speech coach didn’t help, but taking away Pitt’s cigarettes did. The jittery energy became the performance Gilliam wanted.

Twelve Monkeys was released 30 years ago. Brad Pitt’s manic performance wasn’t just wild improvisation. Gilliam encouraged him to play against type, exaggerating physicality and unpredictability. The result earned Pitt his first Oscar nomination.

"I know almost everybody who loves movies loves 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' (1999). I know people on the technical side, musicians & people from a generation that isn’t in denial love it, & there are these 14-year-old kids from high school who love it." — Terry Gilliam Full Excerpt: "Interviewer: You think today’s audience is corrupted by simple storylines, structured in three acts with strong motivation, just like the screenwriting manuals teach? Gilliam: Exactly. Interviewer: Whereas complexity your natural instinct is to construct as you can get away with . . Gilliam: I no longer know who does and doesn’t like my work. I’m confused.

I’m trying to corrupt youth in my own way, not in Spielberg’s: mine is a Socratic corruption. It’s been interesting to see kids write on the Web, This is the best movie I’ve ever seen.’ Interviewer: Kids who didn’t previously know the book? Gilliam: Yes, and now the book is back in the bestseller lists. I seem to make movies to get people to read books. I was hoping they would do this with 'Raspe' and 'Munchausen', but I think I’ve finally succeeded on this one. There must be a new generation who need to see that you can do these things. I met a really bright fourteen-year-old girl in New York who said that all her friends in high school were sneaking in to see it, even though it’s R-rated, and loving it. One fifteen-year-old said, when asked why he rated it so highly, ‘Because it’s honest.’ Perhaps the kids can see through the hypocrisy that currently clothes the American empire. In the end, I think it’ll be a grass-roots thing, but the way it was first released - going into 1,100 cinemas and sold as a romp - was just wrong."

After years away from the spotlight, Weezer needed a song that could announce they were properly back. Rivers Cuomo wrote “Hash Pipe” during a burst of creativity after taking tequila and Ritalin, later recalling that the idea arrived during a particularly wild night. Its heavy riff and deliberately strange lyrics sounded tougher than much of the band’s earlier work, and it became the first single from the Green Album. On the Pepsi Chart Show in 2001, the lip-synced television performance captures Weezer at the beginning of an unlikely second act.

After completing "Fight Club" (1999), Brad Pitt felt that he had done a movie which he thought was too commercial. He became interested in watching the movie of new filmmakers. He was impressed by "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" (1998). So, Pitt called Guy Ritchie up and said, “Hey, I really like what you’re doin’, and if there’s anything that I could fit in, then let’s talk.” Ritchie said, “Well, there is.” And I said, Great! I’m in!” However, both of them panicked before the filming of "Snatch" (2000) started because of the dialect, which was unintelligible. Pitt worked on the accent and tried to be clear and understood. It wasn't working. Pitt went to Ritchie, the day before the shoot and I said, “Guy, I’m gonna f**k up your movie. You should do it.” [So that Pitt could pick up the accent from the imitation] He replied, “Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no.” Pitt, who was scheduled to be on the set 6 AM the next day was was walking the streets of North London like a maniac. Pitt's friend kept saying to him, “You can’t understand it.” At midnight, that clicked in , and Pitt called and woke up Guy Ritchie and said, Are you okay, if you can’t understand your beautifully written dialogue?” And he said, “Yep.” On his inspiration for the role, he credited Benicio Del Toro. "But also, I’ve gotta give credit to Benicio Del Toro, for his brilliant performance in 'The Usual Suspects' (1995). He was, to me, the first person that I’d seen, that was fearless with being unintelligible."

A Chicago man named Terry Sturgis says a 10-year-old boy named Shawn Carter stayed with him for over 12 hours after Terry found him early one morning. Shawn had just gotten off a train on Chicago’s South Side around 4–5 a.m. with nothing but a jug of water in his bag and dirty clothes. Terry was out making his regular runs at the time. Shawn attends Scott Joplin school. Terry noticed scratches all over the boy’s neck and learned they were from beatings by his mother, Sapphire Carter. According to Shawn, the abuse happened because he wanted to play on the Xbox without asking first. Terry, who has survived child abuse himself and lost a brother to it, said he cried that day. He wanted to protect the boy, earn his trust, and show him that things could be okay. Terry gave Shawn his phone number before police arrived to take him. He’s now worried the boy is back in the same dangerous environment and hasn’t heard from him yet. Terry is asking people to help raise awareness about child abuse before it’s too late and is urging anyone who knows Shawn Carter’s family to reach out so the boy can get the help he desperately needs.

In The Dark Knight (2008), the scene between the Joker and Rachel Dawes is unsettling in a way that goes beyond performance. Heath Ledger was so deeply immersed in the role that his energy on set became genuinely unpredictable. He didn’t play the Joker as a character you could anticipate, and that uncertainty bled into the atmosphere of the scene itself. According to crew reports, Maggie Gyllenhaal was so overwhelmed during the take that she looked directly at director Christopher Nolan, silently begging him to cut. Nolan kept the camera rolling, and that moment of real fear stayed in the film. You can see it in her eyes, not acted panic but genuine distress.

According to Terry Gilliam, Robin Williams' character in "'The Fisher King' (1991) is in many ways the closest one to Robin, just that range — the madness, the damage, the pain, the sweetness, the outrageousness. That was the role I think that stretched him to the limits." Gilliam considered the filming of this important scene in the movie to be easy as far as effects were concerned, but as for acting, it was very hard as Robin Williams was tearing himself out emotionally. About how Robin Williams approached the scene, Gilliam said, "The interesting thing about Robin in all of those scenes was that he always wanted to do another take. He felt he had even more anguish and pain to spill out of the character. And I had to really stop him. I had to say, ‘Robin, you’ve reached a point here, way beyond what we expected. We’ve got what we needed. Now you’re just hurting yourself. That happened a couple of times while we were shooting this scene. The most worrisome moment for me was after he’s been chased by the Red Knight, when he’s running through the streets, and then he comes to the river, where the teenage punks arrive and knife him. We had to do other things on that night shoot, too, and things were going very slowly. Suddenly, we realized that we had like an hour until the dawn [would arrive]. The last shot we had to do was Robin running at the end of this scene, in this hysterical state. You can even see the light ever so slightly beginning to come on the river in the background. But Robin was so angry because it was such a crucial moment, and he felt he’d been cheated of his ability to really give this moment his all. And Robin was an incredibly strong guy: When he’d worked himself into this state of madness for the part, nobody could approach him. The first assistant, the stunt guy … nobody wanted to get near him. They were terrified. So, I had to go up there and tell him, ‘Robin, what we have here is very good. And if we look at the rushes and it isn’t, I promise you I will reshoot it.’ And I had to hug him basically, and hold him. I could feel these muscles that were so tense and so strong, they felt like they could easily r!p my he@d off. But that’s what was so extraordinary about him — how he would commit everything and more to what he had to do."

During the filming of "The Collector" (1965), William Wyler instructed Terence Stamp not to have communication of any sort with Samantha Eggar. Stamp knew her from his days at the drama school and had a crush on her. Stamp felt that Wyler wanted him to withdraw his friendship. According to Stamp, Wyler wanted her to live the role. So, he didn't let her off the set during the day & she wasn't allowed to eat with the rest of the crew. Wyler didn't want Eggar to go anywhere or talk to anyone except her coach. He wanted to keep her in constant state of terror. Wyler said to Stamp, "This is going to look cruel, but we will get a great performance out of her." Stamp said, "The two of us tortured her. We weren't actually nasty, but I had to be incredibly indifferent. And the fact is, he got her an Academy Award nomination." Samantha Eggar didn't forgive Stamp for the way he treated her on the set (At least until 1995 when the below mentioned book was published).

On this day, 64 years ago, Chris Marker's "La Jetée" (1962) was released in France. Chris Marker talks about "Twelve Monkeys" (1995), how he made "La Jetée" (1962), & one thing he valued more than the Oscars: "Marker: (...)There is too much to see on the news, on the music channels or on the indispensable Animal Channel. And I feed my hunger for fiction with what is by far the most accomplished source: those great American TV series, like 'The Practice' inspired a video by David Bowie and a film by Terry Gilliam. And there’s also a bar called “La Jetée,” in Japan. Interviewer: How do you feel about this cult? Does Terry Gilliam’s imagination intersect with yours? Marker: Terry’s imagination is rich enough that there’s no need to play with comparisons. Certainly, for me '12 Monkeys' (1995) is a magnificent film (there are people who think they are flattering me by saying otherwise, that 'La Jetée' is much better—the world is a strange place). It’s just one of the happy signs, like Bowie’s video, like the bar in Shinjuku (Hello, Tomoyo! To know that for almost 40 years, a group of Japanese are getting slightly drunk beneath my images every night—that’s worth more to me than any number of Oscars!), that have accompanied the strange destiny of this particular film. It was made like a piece of automatic writing. I was filming 'Le Joli mai' (1963), completely immersed in the reality of Paris 1962, and the euphoric discovery of “direct cinema” (you will never make me say “cinema verité”) and on the crew’s day off, I photographed a story I didn’t completely understand. It was in the editing that the pieces of the puzzle came together, and it wasn’t me who designed the puzzle. I’d have a hard time taking credit for it. It just happened, that’s all.

Zinedine Zidane in his first interview as France manager: “It’s a continuation of Deschamps’ work, my friend. I saw the direction he was taking over the past two tournaments, and he told me, ‘I don’t think I can do this anymore, and you’re the only one who can help the national team.’ He wanted to leave before the World Cup, but I told him I couldn’t take over at that point because he was the one who had qualified France for the World Cup, and he deserved to finish what he started. I didn’t want to take away his glory if France eventually won the World Cup, because I genuinely believed we had the squad to become world champions. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen. During the 4–5 years I was away from management, I received several offers to take charge of clubs, but I turned them all down,including Barcelona, Liverpool, and even the England national team because managing the French national team was the only job I wanted after my experience at Real Madrid.”

Jason Terry breaks down how the Mavericks slowed down LeBron in 2011, but had ZERO answers for Dwyane Wade: “This is at a point in LeBrons career where he didn’t have the consistent jump shot yet. We knew he wanted to get to certain spots on the floor but if we can set our zone defense where he can see a wall of 3 guys, he would be less likely to attack. — D Wade was a monster at that time in his career. There was no defensive gameplan you could do to stop him. We tried. Did not work.” (Via Bleacher Report)

He could have ejected immediately. He didn’t. On May 14, 2009, RAF Harrier GR9A ZG478 crashed during landing at Kandahar. The approach was too steep and the jet struck the runway hard. Its landing gear collapsed, sending the Harrier into a 4,000-foot belly slide as its fuel, weapons and pods caught fire. But the pilot stayed with the burning aircraft. Why? Four aircraft were waiting on the runway. He steered the crippled Harrier away from them before ejecting as flames reached the cockpit. He survived with minor injuries. The Harrier was destroyed. No enemy fire brought it down. This was a landing accident that became a fight to keep a burning aircraft from taking others with it. Watch the final seconds. The decision to stay in the cockpit is what makes this footage extraordinary.

Its landing gear collapsed, sending the Harrier into a 4,000-foot belly slide as its fuel, weapons and pods caught fire. But the pilot stayed with the burning aircraft. Why? Four aircraft were waiting on the runway. He steered the crippled Harrier away from them before ejecting as flames reached the cockpit. He survived with minor injuries. The Harrier was destroyed. No enemy fire brought it down. This was a landing accident that became a fight to keep a burning aircraft from taking others with it. Watch the final seconds. The decision to stay in the cockpit is what makes this footage extraordinary.

A delivery guy was arrested by police for trafficking cocaine without knowing it. It was just another day at work. He received a call from a Nigerian lady at Dagoretti Corner. She wanted him to deliver food in a hotpot. The lady instructed him to take it to Kileleshwa estate in Nairobi. The guy did as instructed. When he arrived, he called the Nigerian man. While waiting, detectives suddenly appeared, opened the delivery bag, and to his shock, found cocaine wrapped in a small polythene pouch hidden inside the food. He was immediately arrested. As the officers were taking him away, he pleaded with them, insisting he was just an innocent delivery guy. He offered to help them catch the person who was supposed to receive the package. The police agreed. Some officers moved ahead while others stayed behind, watching him from a safe distance. He called the Nigerian man again. When the man came down from the apartment and was in the middle of paying him, he was arrested in a swift swoop. The delivery guy was released since he was innocent and had cooperated with the police.

Now that Starship Flight 12 is completed, how did the new V3 Booster performance compare to the older Flight 11 V2 Booster and did the redesign, higher TWR and flight path management really make a big difference? I thought we would look at one aspect of the Booster design to help answer this question, specifically how well the new design reduces gravity losses during the launch to hot staging portion of flight. Come alone with me for a simplified aerodynamics & rocket engineering discussion and then do a direct performance comparison using video clips from the SpaceX live streams. My intent is to help appreciate some of the effort the engineers have put into the new V3 booster and Raptor engine designs to increase the capabilities of the Starship system and greatly increase the payload to orbit potential of Starship. Obviously there are many other considerations (it is rocket science), but I hope you find this helpful.

The homeowner paid to have a new roof installed, the roofing company gave them a good deal on the price and got to work. When they finished ahead of schedule, the homeowner claimed they didn’t have the money for the roof so the roofers came back and put holes in the brand new roof, was this justified or is it vandalism? I would do the same since they didn’t pay a dime for materials. I used to help out with my friend’s landscaping business in the summer during college break. We arrived at some fancy house on a few acres. They mapped out what they wanted done and we did it. They even said we did a good job but still refused to pay because they claimed they didn’t like the shade of rocks we used even though they are the ones who picked them out. We even picked up the rocks for them at the business they wanted the rocks from. It took us about three days to do the work not to mention my friend paid for the materials up front expecting to be paid back when the customer paid us for the job so we went back and undid everything, my friend even cut down some of their bushes out of anger which was wrong on his part but can you blame him? I am willing to bet most people would do the same. They called the cops on us but the police said it was a civil matter but did tell us to leave and we did.

This man woke up that morning and wanted to get some Dunkin’ Donuts coffee door dashed. He admits that he didn’t have enough for a tip but ordered anyways, he also states that he didn’t get it himself because his wife has separation anxiety. When he goes and gets his order, he runs into the delivery driver who was angry because he didn’t leave a tip. The driver takes his order and throws it onto the ground. He then claims he didn’t know that not tipping in general was even a big deal and that he doesn’t know why the driver was so upset. Do you feel he’s being honest when he claims he didn’t think people cared that much about their tips or did the driver overreact since he could see there wasn’t going to be a tip before he even took the order?
