I’m not saying that can’t work. That’s a product aimed at little girls. I wonder if part of this is to appease the talent, if they want a certain director, maybe he demands a certain budget. For those who don’t know, Tonya was unabashedly white trash. You won, no need to beat the barrier of sound to gain your place in the hall of fame of human athletic history.And finally, has anyone read the comic Asterix at the Olympics? Because Tonya was so poor, she was looked down … How long have you fallen asleep during I, Tonya Movie? Who came up with this “every four years” idea anyway? Post-truth world and that…Did we start adding “gate” to everything then? An actress in her late 40s / early 50s (which isn’t old either, but definitely middle age) would create deeper conflict and funnier situations.

It didn’t make as much money as the first Harry Potter film and that’s not even taking into account inflation.Both Moana and Fantastic Beasts cost $180-$200 million, maybe more, plays $100-$150 million in marketing. Dark comedy is usually black comedy that’s not funny. It’s not as bad as Lena Dunham, but it’s when people are promoted to “Queen of Comedy” or whatever without actually achieving the same level of success (I’ll say it) that a man would be expected to achieve.It’s a slightly separate issue, but there’s this whole thing about casting movies based on the number of social media followers they have. A good way around this is to pinpoint certain characters as being the funny ones and give them the funny lines. That uses the mockumentary style? The casting of Margot Robbie seals the deal. As a script, however, I liked what Rogers did.
The music, the story, and the message are phenomenal in I, Tonya. This results in a staccato like storytelling style where there are no actual scenes. Where Olympic figure skating hopefuls could hire mob goons to whack their opponents. The first time it stuck with me is during when the Pats were videotaping practices, and then now I hear it all the time. I always say to find fresh ways into tired genres, and there’s no genre more tired, at this moment, than the biopic.
Once more, cloud storage and good online search have helped solve a serious document retrieval problem. You just win a medal, that’s it. Agree the time for a head line based docudrama is long past. But we live in a world now where we can be anywhere within 2 hours. Unfortunately, we don’t get any definitive answers. Could be pretty cool.The subject of the biopic is being interrogated by Aliens, telling his/her life story.
I, Tonya tells the outrageous and at times hilarious true story of one of the biggest scandals in sporting history. I understand that Margot Robbie is tired of being typecast as the hot blonde (poor girl) and is willing to go full-on Charlize Theron in Monster (and vie for her Oscar), but wasn’t there a bankable actress who isn’t that fortunate looking?I know Hollywood is absolutely opposite of whatever “realism” is considered, but in this instance, I think Margot Robbie, while I love her, is just totally opposite of who this character could actually be seen as.Am I the only one who, when I think of Tonya Harding, doesn’t automatically think ofAnd when it comes to similar looks, even Amy Adams can look almost exactly like her.Come on Hollywood, either of them would be more convincing and better choices for a “realistic” Tonya Harding than Margot Robbie.I agree.
Enough with the politics, back to business as usual.Tastes differ. Duncan Jones saved tons of cash by filming with models rather than CGI. For those who don’t know, Tonya was unabashedly white trash. I never would’ve put that together.Can either Amy even stand up on ice skates?
Here’s an example of kind of what it looks like (where ‘rolls her eyes’ is in blue). That went to Oksana Baul. Hard to give any guidance without knowing who you are writing about.Here’s some genre mixing that I have never seen (or never seen done well):The third option is really interesting. I’m curious to hear others’ suggestions.Now THAT might actually work for this one. He was the major reason it became a hit.The first one that always comes to mind for me is Biaggio from KINGS OF SUMMER:Kevin o’Connor was such a scene stealer, Sommers used him again in The Mummy.A mistake writers (even good, A-listers) often make is making all characters sound the same, namely smart and funny. That was fine at first, when we were setting up the story. As you mentioned before, as I watched Deadpool, knowing that this was a $50M movie or close to, I never found myself thinking, man the effects suck, wish this was better. But if you’re a straight guy who in your heart of hearts really thinks Ashley Graham needs to lose weight you’re probably not.If movie Barbie has to exist at all, I’d much prefer Krysten Ritter in a blonde wig.So it seems if you want your script to be recognized you raise your chances by writing something based on a true story. So…You may be right, and maybe that WAS one of the top factors in casting.There’s an old TV movie called Attack Of The 5’2” Women where Julie Brown played Tonya Harding. – – The always reliable Scott provided a link yesterday ;)I’ve just added another 8 scripts to the folder, including O2 which I know some people were interested in.I was interested in O2 :) Awesome ! Pretty please, “What I learned: If you’ve got a … great character in mind, but they don’t fitSometimes a certain side character can take a so-so flick and give it a“A group of gunrunners in South China come across a deserted cruiseYour standard creature feature from the ’90s – heavy doses of action mixedWritten and Directed by Stephen Sommers – right before he unleashed TheThe reason it rates a bit higher on my chills and thrills scale? Good call :)At first I thought, why the subtitles?
For some reason I didn’t receive it. Money and big scenes sometimes overcompensate for other flaws, and I think it creates a lot of risk, but now the “China excuse” enables everyone. In fact, I would find it incredibly interesting to be able to see the changes and what was from an older version.You might already know this, but for those who don’t, it’s not like a word document where you can see the tracked changes.
And I don’t just say that because I like writing the word “disingenuous.” I really wanted to like this. Especially as an examination of class in America.
