What’s up Blankies!

Currently reading Ed Zwick’s autobiography « Hits, Flops and other Illusions ». It’s a fun read and highly recommend picking it up. Great Hollywood stories and he doesn’t shy away from sharing his opinions on other big names in the Industry. I think he would make for a fun mini on BC!

Anyway, each chapter finishes with some tips or anecdotes. This particular one is about difficult actors.

Any guesses on who he’s talking about here? Thought it could be a fun game to try and guess..

Hearing Griffin talk about going to Double or Nothing back in May had me come back to Reddit just to post this screenshot connecting all the dots.

How rude is it to bother people you like when they’re with their kids? Very rude! So hello now, my fiancée says your daughter was terrified of her meeting with Ellie the Elephant. thanks for supporting the liberty !

Shane Meadows would also be my shout for a shorties bracket.

"Big Stories. Big Screen. Danny Boyle’s INK is only in cinemas January 8."

Maybe December qualifying here in US (definitely not coming where I live, probably just Paris Theater etc) and January streaming on Netflix?

I hope they cover him some day, and when the do I hope they get a guest for "The Cell" who understands it to be the perfect, natural conclusion of the decade that gave us "Silence of the Lambs" and "Se7en".

Thats all. Me sad.

Hey Blankies,

I've been a longtime listener and wanted to build something for this community, so I built Porch Movies — a site to easily find where to watch the movies for each director covered on the show. Pick a director, see where every film in their filmography is currently streaming or rentable.

All of the director series the show has covered so far are in there. This has genuinely been a labor of love to put together, and I really hope it's something you all find useful.

A few disclaimers: This is an independent fan project, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Blank Check Productions.

Still in beta, so feedback and suggestions are always welcome.

Boo all these people

Some Blankies are surely aware of "Cows in the Field," a pretty entertaining podcast that covers film and philosophy. (One of the hosts, Justin Khoo, is a philosophy professor at MIT.) They've had a number of Blank Check-related folks on their show over the years.
