  • With a World Premiere at Sundance in January, Sean Wang's Dìdi has now been capturing the hearts of audiences as the film has gone into wide release in theater. In 2008, during the last month of summer before high school begins, the film follows an impressionable 13-year-old Taiwanese American boy who learns what his family can't teach him: how to skate, how to flirt, and how to love your mom. We discuss the making of the film with editors Arielle Zakowski and Christopher Tennel who detail the post-production process and highlight the multiple formats the film operates in including rebuilding the 2008-era Facebook, MySpace, and skater videos.

  • The Alien movie franchise, spanning over four decades, is one of the most iconic and enduring series in science fiction and horror filmmaking history. What began in 1979 with Ridley Scott's Alien has since evolved into a sprawling narrative universe known for its heroine Ellen Ripley, its groundbreaking visual effects, and the image of the eponymous Xenomorph. We explore the franchise's origins, its impact on the genre, and the way it has evolved through the vision of multiple directors before leading into our expectations for the upcoming Alien: Romulus.

  • With the upcoming release of Lee Isaac Chung’s Twisters, we revisit the 1996 original Twister directed by Jan de Bont and starring Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, and Cary Elwes. We discuss the significance and legacy of the film while musing on why revisiting the source material in 2024 may feel just right as a standalone story with the added ingredients of Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar Jones within the Tornado Alley world set forth 28 years ago.
