April 2011, Casa Encantada, Los Angeles, CA, USA “Hahaha!” The little tyke sitting on my back laughed as if this was the most fun he’d had in his short life, which was probably true. “Yes, Ace.” I grinned at the thought of my son having so much fun with me and continued running on all fours in the backyard. “You and Dada will defeat Ian and Uncle Evan.” “Stop trying to make your kids so competitive,” Evan shot back while running beside me in the same position. “If I left…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
“Do you think he’ll get it right this time?” Al Pacino just shrugged, for he had no answer to that question. “This is the toughest scene for his character, so it’ll take time before he fully gets there. We just need some patience, and I’m sure he’ll nail it in a few more takes.” Robert Zemeckis nodded in agreement and walked back behind the camera. As much as Al preferred working with a director like Bob, who was open-minded enough to accept suggestions, it was sometimes tiring to…- 236.1 K • Ongoing
- The movie began with Noah Hunter waking up in bed with a start. He didn't seem to be wearing anything, but a sheet covered him from the waist down. He rubbed his face tiredly before looking at the other side of the bed, where an equally naked redhead was lying on her stomach. Only her back was visible, and her lower half was similarly covered by a sheet. “Shit!” he cursed out loud, and then the movie went into a flashback. “Bill!” one of Noah's friends called out to the protagonist and…

- The moment I saw her, I knew who she was. She was a future Oscar winner and one of the greatest British actresses of her generation. Not to mention a brilliant writer and a very funny comedienne. Emma Thompson. “I’m so sorry for being late,” she apologized. “I mixed up the timing for this audition with another one.” “Unfortunately for you, we’re done here for today,” John said sternly. “You can come back tomorrow...” “John,” I interrupted before he could finish,…

- Christopher Nolan looked at the man who had made the movie possible, Troy Armitage, who was getting ready for today's shoot. For a brief time, had been as good as scrapped. "If Troy doesn't appear in the sequel, people won't watch the movie," Jonathan Nolan, Christopher's brother and co-writer of the screenplay, had said seriously. "The film made as much money as it did because of the surprise reveal at the end about his identity. And he was the soul of the movie. If he's not coming back, we may as…

- “My water just broke,” she announced. “Hugo! Get the car!” My brother-in-law, who was an excellent doctor, seemed to forget all of his training the moment he saw his wife on the verge of delivering their second child. “Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! This is happening,” Hugo said in a panic. “What are we gonna do?” “Calm down, bro,” I called out as I helped Aria to her feet. “Grab Miles and follow Aria and me. We're going to the hospital.” He nodded gratefully and…

- The movie opened with the characters played by Steve Carell and Julianne Moore on a dinner date together. Steve's character asked his wife what she wanted for dessert, and she responded with something completely unexpected. “I want a divorce.” What seemed like a happy couple suddenly found their marriage falling apart. The strange part was that Cal, Steve's character, never even tried to convince her not to go through with it. He agreed almost immediately. He didn't even ask for a…

- How the hell would he play Josh? He's too... cool. I need a lovable nerd for that role, not a guy who spends half his time at the gym. He could play Christian if he wanted to. Maybe even Elton, but Josh? Hell no. Ugh. Not again. I was already starting to hate the casting industry. Brad Pitt was undoubtedly one of the most handsome men of this era, yet I didn't see casting directors turning him down for roles. So why did my appearance irk them so much? I realized my mistake as soon as I looked down…

- “Man, had I known theater school was this much fun, I’d never have gone for an English degree at Harvard. I feel like I wasted my time there.” I nodded. “Same here. Spent the first two years learning International Relations. This is so much better.” “Mr. Pierce is very cool as a teacher,” Matt said. “Of course he is,” I agreed. “Most teachers here are. That’s why I knew they wouldn’t mind you doing it.” “Thank you so much, Cal,” Matt began. “I really don’t know…

- “Oi! Wanker! I need those lights o’er here!” A man came rushing over with the lights toward the first AD, who was coordinating the crew on set. “Did he just call a crew member a wanker?” Tom asked in bewilderment. I shrugged. “Could be his nickname or something. I really don't wanna ask.” Tom laughed and shook his head. We admired the view of Northern England spread out before us. Away from the bustling environment of a big city like London, this was the real deal. Sure, the…
