James Cameron def has a better origin story than Christopher Nolan. In his mid-20s, Cameron was working as a truck driver. On weekends, he drove to University of Southern California and photocopied binders full of technical filmmaking papers. “I gave myself a full [film] education for like a $120 in [Xerox].” In 1978, he raised $20k from a network of dental surgeons (dentists love alternative investments) for a 12-minute sci-fi short film called Xenogenesis. Film didn’t do much but was able to parlay that into a job with horror legend Roger Corman, which led to him directing a Jaws knock-off in 1982 (Piranha II) before breaking out with The Terminator in 1984. Legit went from truck driver to King of Hollywood.

Andy Weir describing how he wrote The Martian and film got made is very entertaining. He said, “I wanted to make sure dorks like me would enjoy it, so made it as scientifically accurate as possible” Here the play-by-play: ▫️started writing full time in 1999 after getting fired from AOL (which had just merged with Netscape) ▫️he was a programmer and had a ton of stock options…because he was fired, had 6 months to excercise them and sold at AOL’s peak before bubble popped ▫️spent 3 years on book ideas that got “no traction” (and no agent wanted to sign him) ▫️went back to work as software engineer and wrote online as a hobby (webcomics, short stories, serials) ▫️The Martian was one of three serials he was working on 2009 (other one was about alien invading earth, another about a mermaid in 19th century New England) ▫️sent stories to a mailing list of 3,000 readers he had built up over a decade ▫️took 3 years to write The Martian, “posting a chapter at a time [every] 2 months” or so ▫️ “spent more time researching than writing, because researching was more fun than writing” (very relatable) ▫️readers corrected him along the way and when he was done, a bunch of them asked if he could make a Kindle version because reading it on his website sucked ▫️Weir didn’t want to charge because was making solid living as programmer…but Kindle has minimum of $0.99 ▫️all his fans started buying the Kindle book and leaving positive reviews ▫️this “sales spike” pushed book up charts and hit bestseller lists and just snowballed after that on Amazon ▫️within a short span, major book publisher reached out…then Matt Damon expressed interest on a film project…then Ridley Scott threw his hat in the ring ▫️Weir negotiated these deals while “debugging code” on his day job Described the process as “one of those things where everything just snuck up, bit by bit” before boooooooooom!!

Terminator 2: Judgment Facts -Director James Cameron asked Stan Winston to direct a teaser trailer. Cameron did not want the trailer to just be early footage, and so with a budget of $150,000, Winston created a trailer that showed a futuristic assembly line churning out copies of Terminators, all of which looked like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Cameron was pleased with this trailer, as he had fears about audience reactions to trailers showing Schwarzenegger returning as a Terminator (after the Terminator in the first film was clearly destroyed). The teaser ran over a year in advance of T2's release and was shown before another Schwarzenegger hit film, Total Recall (1990). -This is the only "Terminator" film to win or be nominated for an Oscar. It won four out of the six it was nominated for. -There was concern as to how realistic CGI would look when it came to the helicopter going under the bridge, so the pilot did it for real. -According to director James Cameron, Linda Hamilton suffered permanent hearing damage in one ear during the elevator shootout because she did not insert her earplugs after removing them between takes. -Lots of Edward Furlong's voice had to be re-dubbed by Furlong again in post-production, because it changed during shooting. -Industrial Light & Magic's computer graphics department had to grow from six artists to almost thirty-six to accommodate all the work required to bring the T-1000 to life, costing US $5.5 million, and taking eight months to produce, which ultimately amounted to 3.5 minutes of screen time. -Michael Biehn was first considered for the role of the T-1000, in a complete reversal of roles with Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was now a hero. -Linda Hamilton's then twenty-month-old son, Dalton, played an infant John Connor in a playground dream sequence. -The sound used for Arnold Schwarzenegger's shotgun was actually two cannons. -Over one million feet of film was shot and printed. -Over one million feet of film was shot and printed. -Denzel Washington turned down the role of Miles Bennett Dyson

Kelly Dodd gets so triggered by her former #RHOC castmates. She went on a rant after claiming Shannon was upset that she had to pay the $500 bill at The Quiet Woman. Kelly argued that Shannon makes $1 million a year and Andy Cohen, who was also there, makes $20 million a year, asking, “Why are they looking for a free meal?” The problem is that Kelly doesn’t have the full story. Andy Cohen later addressed the situation on his radio show, explaining that he was given the bill, happily paid it, and left a generous tip. As he was leaving, the general manager told him the dinner was actually on The Quiet Woman and that they were going to tear up the bill. Andy said he didn’t want that to happen because he wanted the server to receive the tip. In the end, they worked everything out, so the situation wasn’t what Kelly made it out to be. #RHOC

John Candy improv'd this entire speech from HOME ALONE (1990) on the spot because his character "Gus Polinski" was a last minute addition to the film. Candy filmed all of his scenes in one 24 hour crunch, mainly as a favor to writer/producer John Hughes whom he had worked with twice before on two other films, and because the budget at that point couldn't afford him. Candy reportedly made only $414 for the role. When HOME ALONE director Chris Columbus worked with Candy again on the film ONLY THE LONELY one year later, he said Candy would sometimes joke about how much he earned versus how much the film grossed, which was almost $500,000 WW.

Renée Zellweger auditioned three times with Tom Cruise and later received a personal call from Cameron Crowe while she was attending the Sundance Film Festival. Crowe thanked her for her time, and she thanked him for being considered. Just as the call was about to end, Crowe asked, “Well, do you want the job?” Zellweger later admitted that on the day she was cast, it had been so long since she had worked that when she went to an ATM, she didn’t have enough of a balance to make a withdrawal

Nichols: He really thought that he was going to collapse the Iranian regime and then walk through the streets of a free Tehran while they were dedicating a statue to him. He was on a sugar high from toppling the president of Venezuela. His popularity was cratering, the economy was going in the wrong direction. And I think like a lot of autocrats, he said, a splendid little war in the Middle East where I emerge the hero will be great. And now he's admitting they blackmailed me with the international economy, and I'm paying the blackmail because I have to.

When Sigourney Weaver was sent the script of "Aliens" (1986), she had no idea that a sequel was being made for "Alien" (1979) as the studio didn't inform her. After reading the script, Weaver thought it was "Magnificent" and "The Greatest script" she had ever read. She was blown away by the humour, humanity and action. Cameron was initially afraid to meet Weaver as he feared she would be as stern and intimidating as her Ripley character. After their meeting he was relieved. He said, “She was just this wonderful person, and I was so relieved that she saw some value in the script and where I was proposing to take the character.” Cameron was open to some of the changes to the script mentioned by Weaver. However, on the first day of the shoot, there was one hiccup. The shoot was in England and the sets were built. When Weaver arrived, she told Cameron that she was Anti-Gun advocate and she wasn't touching a gun. Cameron asked her, "Did you read the script?". She replied, "I read it. I understood there were guns in it, I just didn’t think Ripley had to pick up a gun except for a flamethrower.” Realizing that the script would require a major rewrite if he couldn’t convince Weaver to use the machine gun, Cameron took Weaver behind the studio and had her fire off the weapon a few times. Cameron said, “I’ll never forget her blasting away with this thing. And then there was this kind of sly look over to me, like ‘This is fun.'”. Weaver said, “It just shows how addictive guns are." while noting that she felt ashamed of the pleasure she took in shooting the rounds. ("James Cameron and Sigourney Weaver on Their 40-Year Collaboration", Jim Hemphill, Indiewire, 2025) P.S: On this day, 40 years ago, "Aliens" (1986) premiered at Westwood, California, USA.

Peyton Manning talks about the time Jim Harbaugh tried recruiting him to join the 49ers when he hit free agency in 2012: “The 49ers were one of the first teams that I worked out for. They came down to North Carolina. I was at Duke and Harbaugh and Greg Roman came down and were very CIA like. They flew into another town in North Carolina because they didn’t want to get tracked by Adam Schefter or Chris Mortensen. Harbaugh had a hoodie on — Bill Belichick style at the workout in case Mort was in a tree, but he was great. I think he knew I was going through a strange time. At the time his San Francisco teams were awesome. They were tough. I was looking for a team that was kind of close to getting there and that wasn’t a rebuild. He was great.” via: NFL on ESPN

Arnold Schwarzenegger really wanted to play the hero in the first Terminator movie. He thought O.J. Simpson was going to be Terminator. Then he made the mistake of explaining to director James Cameron exactly how OJ had to play the part. Cameron was amazed and asked Arnold on the spot: “Why don’t you play Terminator?!” HOWARD STERN: “You wanted to be Kyle Reese.” ARNOLD: “That’s right.” STERN: “And the director said to you, ‘Hey, man, are you crazy? The movie’s about the Terminator.’ How did you beat out those guys?” ARNOLD: “I think what happened was it was a total coincidence because I didn’t even try out for Terminator. I was trying to be Kyle Reese. “And during the lunch when I met with James Cameron, the director... I kept talking all the time about the Terminator. I said to Cameron, ‘It doesn’t matter. I know you guys have already probably hired O.J. Simpson. But whoever is playing it, I just want you to be clear. He has to train himself to dissemble weapons and to put weapons together and to shoot and to load the weapons and all of this stuff blindfolded, totally blindfolded.’” “‘Because a Terminator can never, ever look down at his hand, what he’s doing, because he’s a machine. He’s a robot. When he walks, he has to have a certain walk, meaning he scans and looks around. He has to have a certain scan. It has to be absolutely clear at all times that this is a machine with absolutely no human behavior.’” “But this went on like this for an hour, what I just did.” STERN: “You didn’t even know you were excited.” ARNOLD: “No, no, because I saw the Yul Brynner character in Westworld where he played the machine. And so I was so, you know, kind of amazed at his performance. And he was an extraordinary actor.” STERN: “Fabulous.” ARNOLD: "So I kept talking about this and talking about how he has to walk, how he has to get up and how he has to tear his flesh out and how he has to operate on his eye. And, you know, no pain and no feelings.” “And James Cameron looked at me at the end of the lunch, and he said, ‘So why don’t you play Terminator? I mean, you understand him so well, this character. This is exactly what we need.’ And I said, ‘No, no, no, Jim, please. I counted the amount of lines. This guy says it’s 27 lines. In Conan, I had 128 lines. So I’m not gonna go backwards. You can give it to someone else. But I want to talk a lot. I want to perform. I want to be the leading man.’ “He says, ‘I will make that guy the leading man. It’s called the Terminator. I will shoot it from below up. You will look heroic. And don’t worry about killing all those people, because you’re a machine. No one is going to blame Arnold. You’re a machine. You’re acting as a machine.’”

Tom Hanks shares a great backstory on voicing the original Toy Story in 1995. Says it only happened because Robin Williams smashed it with Aladdin a few years prior. Hollywood realized a big star could sell an animated film (give something for parents). So, Hanks and Allen tried to do the same improv style. They made 80% of a film but just weren’t on Williams level (Hanks says Williams was the Picasso of Improv). Pixar threw it all out and then Hanks, Allen’s and everyone else worked off a script. *** Full interview here:

Seems the "pianist vs. 'CCP'" story made it to Chinese social media, so one of the people involved released her side of the story. Summary: 1) They were there to film Chinese New Year Greetings for a company 2) They were waiting to use the piano to film next to it and waited for over 40 minutes for the pianist guy to leave 3) Due to a non-disclosure agreement with the company, none of the footage of their CNY greeting could be published to the public 4) They did not know he was live-streaming (for profit) and even before his live-streaming started he filmed videos of all of them and during this time they told him they were Chinese 5) Even though he knew they were Chinese he kept insisting they were Japanese (perhaps to provoke them because content) 6) He provokingly plays a discriminating song on his piano (related to Ching Cheng Hanji meme) 7) They decided to politely ask how long it would take for him to use the piano 8) After realizing he is probably a content creator she asked if he could delete the video because their content was non-disclosable and could not be made public in advance 9) He posted content with them in online anyway without their permission 10) They found out he's a YouTuber with over 2 million subscribers and so according to the police he will likely not be allowed to play the piano there without a permit since he is making money from it

Summary: 1) They were there to film Chinese New Year Greetings for a company 2) They were waiting to use the piano to film next to it and waited for over 40 minutes for the pianist guy to leave 3) Due to a non-disclosure agreement with the company, none of the footage of their CNY greeting could be published to the public 4) They did not know he was live-streaming (for profit) and even before his live-streaming started he filmed videos of all of them and during this time they told him they were Chinese 5) Even though he knew they were Chinese he kept insisting they were Japanese (perhaps to provoke them because content) 6) He provokingly plays a discriminating song on his piano (related to Ching Cheng Hanji meme) 7) They decided to politely ask how long it would take for him to use the piano 8) After realizing he is probably a content creator she asked if he could delete the video because their content was non-disclosable and could not be made public in advance 9) He posted content with them in online anyway without their permission 10) They found out he's a YouTuber with over 2 million subscribers and so according to the police he will likely not be allowed to play the piano there without a permit since he is making money from it

According to Jennifer Grey, there was also a long-running contest on the set of "Dirty Dancing" (1987) to see if anyone could come up with the new title for the film as they thought the title 'Dirty Dancing' was never going to last. Many thought that in the eighties, it sounded too scandalous to be able to reach its mainstream target audience and even the Censorship officers assumed it was a p0rn film. "Dirty Dancing" had an extremely low-budget production, and there was a very real possibility that passionate dedication of the crew wouldn't be enough to save the movie from an embarrassing B-movie fate. The $4.5 million budget came from Vestron, a home video company based in Stamford, Connecticut, that had never before made a movie. The schedule for the shoot was impossibly tight & the movie had to be shot in 43 days. ("Out of the Corner: A Memoir", Jennifer Grey, 2022)

This gentleman was flying Delta and was removed from the plane because he was wearing a Maga hat. The flight attendant told him to remove it so he did, but subsequently there were a few people around him that just wanted him to put it back on quickly so that they could take a picture of him.. which he did. As soon as he did that he was removed from the plane. He was marched in front of a lot of other people and embarrassed, and then the captain had a private conversation with him. The excuse the pilot gave him was absolute utter BS. You may disagree with me on that. The man was kicked off the flight and he now has an ongoing lawsuit with Delta Airlines. I hope he wins.

Charlton Heston on why 'Soylent Green' (1973) was one of the best movies he acted in: "'Soylent Green' (1973) was one of the best movies I ever did, primarily because of Eddie [Robinson]. He was a wonderful actor and lovely man to work with. He was so good in it. He was dying at the time … and he was undertaking to die in the scene. And talking to him, I was weeping. Because of what it was like for him as an actor to lie there, knowing you were never again going to put on makeup and wardrobe and say words for a film. That must have been what he was thinking" ("Hollywood Flashback: ‘Soylent Green’ Depicted an Overpopulated Planet With a Dark Secret", Seth Abramovitch, The Hollywood Reporter, 2023)

In my opinion the greatest Dragon ever put to film is Smaug from the Hobbit franchise by WetaFX. It is the most real looking and feeling Dragon I have ever seen. The incredible team at Weta spent a lot of time iterating and developing the character to make it what it is in the final film, even changing his design after the first film was released with a small snippet of Smaug in his previous form (they went back and re-rendered that snippet for the digital release of the first film to keep it consistent). He was changed from a 4-legged Dragon to his final form which is technically a Wyvern. He was voice acted and given reference performance capture by Benedict Cumberbatch which proved to be helpful for the animators at Weta. I have never worked on a Dragon before but it is definitely on my wish-list of creatures to work on one day as they are my favourite fantasy creatures. I highly recommend taking a look at how he was made in the below links, it is truly inspirational the level of detail and craftsmanship that went into making him. CREDITS & SOURCES: Video snippets are from WetaFXs breakdown of Smaug: Check out the full 3 part behind the scenes of how he was made from the Hobbit Appendices: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3
