John: So that actually is the words Scriptnotes.Ĭraig: Oh, it’s the perspective shifty one. But it actually says Scriptnotes, you see. That’s not the actual reference, but Zoom is a high quality throwback reference. And maybe describe as this is an audio show, describe what this looks like.Ĭraig: Well, OK, maybe it’s not what you were going for, but to me it looks like the classic Zoom font from PBS. John: Craig, do you recognize the reference that these t-shirts make?Ĭraig: That would require me to look at the t-shirt, wouldn’t it? Let me go do that. They sort of slipped out a little bit earlier than we anticipated, but this way you can also wear them to celebrate our 10th anniversary which will be coming up next month in August. We have new t-shirts and I’m so excited about our new t-shirts. Two bits of news to share with our listeners. Otherwise you would have to put your coins in the weird – it was like a gumball machine in the front of the bus kind of thing. So you’d get a bus pass and then you would show the bus pass to the bus driver. I’m back in the tokens day.Ĭraig: Or we had bus passes as students. You just tap your watch and it’s magic.Ĭraig: Yellow cards were already magic. So you don’t have to load up the stupid yellow cards anymore that never worked properly. Craig, an innovation that probably happened before the pandemic but I had not experienced it yet was that now you can use Apple Pay on the subway and on busses which is just such a game-changer. And when you say New York City you’re on Staten Island? It’s been a good road trip.Ĭraig: That’s fantastic. But you can see sort of where that movie comes from because it’s just a lot of adventure. I mean, there’s been so many movies about kids’ college tours and stuff like that, so I’m not going to write that movie. We’ve just done a week-long visit of colleges with my daughter. I am back in New York City for the first time since the pandemic. No surprise, didn’t have a lot of rodeos, so it’s not my culture.īut, you know, hopefully it’s putting some money in some folks’ pockets up here. Not like LA fireworks that just happen constantly and for no reason. So I think it’s more of a Canada Folks only stampede, which is fine. You can’t really get tourists in because no one is allowed to fly in unless they have a reason to be here.
I’m not a Stampede – from what I’ve seen it’s sort of half a stampede because of Covid and things. You are up there enjoying the Calgary Stampede, correct?Ĭraig: It’s not my cup of tea. So only Megana is holding down the Los Angeles fort. Craig, this is one of the rare podcasts we are both out of town. John: But in our bonus segment for premium members we will discuss whatever happened to DVD commentaries and my theory is that Craig is partially to blame.Ĭraig: I’m going to hopefully upgrade that to completely to blame, but let’s see how it goes. We will look at examples and techniques to make foreshadowing feel clever rather than clunky.Ĭraig: We’ll also answer listener questions about Hallmark movies, friends who are bad bosses, and what to do when your movie is terrible. Today on the show how do prime the audience for what’s going to happen later? That’s right, it’s foreshadowing, popular twin.
John: And this is Episode 509 of Scriptnotes, a podcast about screenwriting and things that are interesting to screenwriters. on HBO.The original post for this episode can now be found here. “Beyond the Wall,” the sixth episode of Game of Thrones‘ seventh season, airs Aug.

However, she could also be planning to go through with that attack on King’s Landing she’s been threatening. Judging by her reaction to Jon Snow’s departure in Sunday’s episode, it seems as though Dany may have a change of heart and end up flying north. But her intended destination remains a mystery.
