This is absolutely fucking bananas the way that these people are *so close* to getting it but still manage to miss it by a fucking mile.

Zonder regie geen film met een hart: geen eenheid, geen ritme, geen richting voor de kijker.
In mijn nieuwe DDG-column schrijf ik waarom regie juist nú essentieel is.
Lees je mee?

Het borrelseizoen is weer begonnen! 🥂

En dus moet je ook weer antwoord geven op die ene vraag: wat doe je voor werk?

Onze voorzitter en regisseur @martijnwinkler.nl denkt in een column na over zijn antwoord.

Hoe leg jij uit wat je als regisseur doet?🎥🎧

One of my all-time favorite clips of Rob Reiner, from his Friars Club Roast in 2000, as he reads aloud Roger Ebert's infamous scathing review of his movie North. The man had an amazing sense of humor about himself. RIP.

Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos says the streamer has no "opposition" to releasing Warner Bros. movies in theaters, but hints that "windows will evolve to be much more consumer friendly."

Gisteren besloten we als makers: we kunnen niet langer zwijgen. Vandaag staat ons opiniestuk in de Volkskrant.
Deze bezuinigingen op de NPO raken niet alleen makers, maar ons allemaal. Het culturele hart van onze democratie staat op het spel.

Opinie: Bezuinigingen op de omroep slopen het hart van onze cultuur
De aangekondigde bezuinigingen bij de publieke omroep zijn geen gewone ingreep in een begroting, maar een amputatie van het culturele geheugen en het verbeeldingsvermogen van Nederland.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

NickFrank40 @NickyFrank30 My grandfather used to say “and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel” and I never knew what it meant until after he died my grandmother explained some magazine did a fluff interview with Magda Goebbels a few years before WW2 that included her strudel recipe and my grandfather, who hated the Nazis with the passion of 10,000 suns, thought it was an example of the media sanitizing evil people and he would use the phrase when someone asked him to overlook a bad person doing bad things and focus on the good. 8:06 PM · Sep 12, 2025 · 2.3M Views

Meta is currently building an AI compute center in Louisiana that, when finished next year, will be almost as large as the city of Manhattan, and is projected to draw 2-5 GW of power by 2030. For perspective, Manhattan's annual power usage is ~2.5 GW.
