this seems like it will be accurate -
Korine insists that Aggro Dr1ft signifies surpassing the medium of film (it doesn’t), but with its subject matter of a ruthless killer trying to balance his domestic life, it’s also about transcending our flesh when you realize just how clearly frightened Korine is of aging.

I forget which thread I mentioned it in, but there have been a handful of films I've seen which have contained references to others films the director made. Not in the sense of a shared universe, but in the sense that the directors other films have been released in the work of the film in question.

Watching About Schmidt now, for the first time, and the protagonist drives past a theater marquee reading Sideways.

Yeah he did actually reach out to check it was ok so I just said yeah sure Marty go for it, and if you need any more help with ideas I've got you covered, just don't be a stranger you know.

Trailer tells me nothing but I just saw the exact picture on fb and someone I guess I must know or have known at some point or something wrote the following...

Well. A sharp needle in the brain. Extremely effective. Unforgettable. But a very stylised, almost installation-y approach to the banality of evil. The devil is exclusively in the details, in the background or on the other end of a call.

Somehow this completely went under my radar, by Amazon is adapting Fallout into a show, and it has Walton Goggins in it:

Thankfully the series is going for an original story, within the canon of the game franchise, which I suspect is generally a more effective approach than direct adaptation. That said, I do think this adaptation faces risks similar to other such films/series, such as the temptation to "Cram" in as many references which only the players of the game will recognize.

I've probably put 1000 hours into this game franchise, over the last decade.
