A 100k salary sounds like poverty in your neck of the woods.

I really want to see it in 70mm IMAX but every showing has sold out. I’d have to go to Hollywood. Same price as IMAX where I live though

I use Fandango so that bumps the price up some and it was a Dolby premium screen. And after watching Sinners I was glad I did have the better screen and sound system

What is the point of fandango when you can just buy the ticket cheaper at the box office...

DancesWithWerewolves wrote: Wed Apr 23, 2025 9:10 pm I got tasked with answering questions for a high school girl about a career in writing (it's for a career class). A friend from college recommended me to her. At first I'm like "sure, though I wouldn't call my writing a career" and my friends like "well, you're the only successful writer we know", which I replied "that's sad, but okay".

Then I see the question about can I afford the life I want on this career. I fear I'm gonna break this poor girl's heart lol. I have made $1 this year so far.
Yeah, that's a bit of a pickle. But I would try to not break her heart, let her know it's basically a crapshoot. Like music, there's a million people out there that can write/play/sing and got their ideas, but virtually everything has been done. Right off you gotta have your own hook and definitely have some luck. Definitely hard out there for a pimp.
I did my best with the answers, trying to let it know it's tough if you don't have a publisher backing you, but if you love it, just do it.

Yeah I went strait for the box office with this one. I only buy online if I get concerned about seating.

Rekindling the idea of doing a Graveslinger run as a comic, probably just 3 or 4 issues this time so it's more digestible for me to handle. Of course I need to think of a small-scale story to support that, and it will be several years before they'd get out because of how long it'll take for me to draw the damn thing, but I still feel the need to do it.

Though, I couldn't use Graveslinger as a title, because there's already an indie comic with the same name that existed before my books.

My grades for Ryan Coogler's films (that I've seen), now that I sat on Sinners for almost a week.

Creed - 9/10
Black Panther - 8/10
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - 7/10
Sinners - 9/10

Really not a bad run so far.

He did it the hard way and earned blank checks for all his original ideas going forward. Took two beloved IP, put a personal imprint on them, made most of the legacy fans happy and made everyone money. Natural successor in the Kubrick-Nolan line for Warner Bros.
