I've posted about Charlie Brooker in the past: In-Depth Interview – Charlie Brooker. I'm a HUGE fan of Black Mirror, and love what they tried to do with Bandersnatch, the newest Black Mirror experience. If you haven't heard of this new experience, it's an episode where you choose your own story. Every time the main character, … Continue reading Charlie Brooker On Writing

Leigh Whannell On Writing
New discoveries always make these weekly interview posts so enjoyable. This is Leigh Whannell, who actually started out with the Saw series. He got started along with James Wan, another master of horror. What a crazy film to start of couple of screenwriting careers. James and Leigh have taken off with separate careers now, but it seems … Continue reading Leigh Whannell On Writing
Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa On Writing
This year there have been two standout shows that were reimaginings, both of which I binge-watched in a single day. Do I have a problem, or are shows just getting too good? I think it's the shows. The first show, which I highly recommend watching is Lost in Space. Here's our post which contains a great … Continue reading Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa On Writing
Drew Goddard On Writing
It's funny that last week I did an article all about adaptations. This week's interview is about a movie that was written just for the big screen. This is the type of movie that made me fall in love with film. I love any good movie, but there's something truly special about a movie of … Continue reading Drew Goddard On Writing
Chad and Carey Hayes On Writing
This week we're jumping back to a classic. I love a good scary movie, and one of my favorites is The Conjuring. What I really loved about it was that it took the classic exorcism story and told it from a different perspective. If the investigators of an exorcism are scared, there's a reason you should be … Continue reading Chad and Carey Hayes On Writing

I watched the full season in its entirety … Continue reading Cary Fukunaga On Writing
Mark Perez On Writing
I haven't been out to the movies all that much this summer. I think the summer started off really strong, but I haven't been driven to see anything since Mission Impossible. That being said, where have all the great summer movies been? Seems like all of August was a dud. Fall is coming, and I think … Continue reading Mark Perez On Writing
Loren Bouchard On Writing
Bob's Burgers is one of the funniest shows on TV. Although, I didn't think it was all that funny when I first started watching it. I heard people rant and rave, so I watched a few episodes and then gave up on it... twice. People say the third time's a charm for a reason, right? Well it … Continue reading Loren Bouchard On Writing
Michael Schur On Writing
If Michael Schur looks familiar to you, it's because he's not just the creator of the hilarious show, The Good Place, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and Parks and Rec. He's also Mose in The Office... Dwight Schrute's strange and beloved little brother. If you haven't heard of The Good Place, here's a trailer for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfBgT5djaQw I found a wonderful interview about … Continue reading Michael Schur On Writing
