S

It is.
S
16:33speaker_0HOST

Open Bar #199 - Harry Potter Trailer, Lanterns Backlash, Gal Gadot Hits Back
T
35:19The Critical DrinkerHOST
we'll get to that shortly trust
N
35:21NatePANELIST
me so I think that's partially why a lot of them are like writers production companies they they help fund the shows that they're even writing so i think that's where a lot of that comes in unfortunately i mean look at jj abrams and bad robot you know as a director slash you know production house that's that's how he keeps getting bloody work which is mental because obviously majority of it is a poo yeah
R
35:48Ryan KinelPANELIST
Even he seemed to be put a little bit in a doghouse of sorts for a while, like him as a director, not necessarily Batrobot as a production house, but, I mean, since Rise of Skywalker, the first thing he did was that thing that just came out a couple weeks ago, right?
R
36:03Robot HeadPANELIST
And he was everywhere before that.
N
37:38NatePANELIST
He personally put in a phone call, I believe was the quote to Jeff Bezos.
N
37:43NatePANELIST
who's the individual that was doing Star Trek for a little while, you know, on the TV.
N
37:49NatePANELIST
He was a J.J. Abrams bad robot acolyte.
N
37:51NatePANELIST
So, you know, J.J. Abrams, his, like, you know, his Hollywood effect, his shadow looms still large, unfortunately, even though he's only just come back.

10 Cloverfield Lane (2016): The Little Princess
R
2:14RobertHOST
The story follows a young woman who, after a car crash, wakes up in an underground bunker with two men who insist that an event has left the surface of the earth uninhabitable.
C
2:24ChrisHOST
The film was developed from a script titled The Cellar, but under production by Bad Robot, it was turned into a spiritual successor to the 2008 film Cloverfield.
C
2:35ChrisHOST
Spoiler alert.
C
2:36ChrisHOST
It's presented in the third-person narrative in contrast to its predecessor's found footage style.
12 MINS LATER
C
14:13ChrisHOST
So, yes, he made a point there, although he could have been a little bit more on the nose.
R
14:18RobertHOST
Although it seems to me that this review by Bowen is more a comment on Abrams than on this film, you know? Which
C
14:27ChrisHOST
is also especially weird because this film, I think, was written and was a spec script, right? after that lost beat but before and like jj abrams had nothing to do with the writing of this film no he did not which is interesting but it might have actually you know gotten the favor of bad robot because jj abrams love you know that sort of storytelling
R
14:51RobertHOST
and it's okay to have like similar plot points i mean it happens all the time yeah do you have some favorite letterboxd reviews
