Serj Tankian has discussed how System Of A Down fans “scare the shit out of” the singer by screaming the lyrics to ‘Chop Suey!’ at him in public.The rock band’s iconic 2001 song opens with Tankian screaming the lyrics “wake up!” which has become a curse for him when going about his daily life, as he revealed.“People will scare the shit out of me when they yell, ‘Wake up!’ behind me somewhere — wherever, in public,” Tankian told Revolver in a new interview.“I’m like, ‘Fuck dude! Really? Wow, I’m glad you’re excited but don’t do that.’ I get that a lot.”Despite this, Tankian says he is still grateful to have fans who connect with his music and want to meet him. “It’s the biggest compliment in the world, to start with, that anyone would listen to your music,” he said.
How ‘Goodnight Mommy’ Visuals Build Fear and Tension
20.09.2022 - 20:29 / variety.com
Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor Director Matt Sobel called on production designer Mary Colston and cinematographer Alexander Dynan to subtly emphasize a sense of foreboding in his reimagining of the 2014 Austrian psychological thriller “Goodnight Mommy,” on Prime Video. Naomi Watts plays a mother who returns home to her sons after having cosmetic surgery, but she’s not quite the same person who left them. Her bandaged face as she recovers hides more than a person healing from a procedure. Colston wanted the family’s house to play on the idea that it was “a map of trauma.” The home starts out bright and inviting with white walls and high ceilings — a look she calls “Goop mom,” after Gwyneth Paltrow’s aspirational brand.
But as the story unfolds, the boys, Elias (Cameron Crovetti) and Lucas (Nicholas Crovetti), start to notice a behavioral change in their mother. She tears up their drawings; sets up new house rules, such as no running or shouting; and starts smoking. At that point, the visuals start to change and audiences begin to see more of the house. Dynan’s approach was to experience the house from the boys’ perspective. “We wanted to always be with them, so we used dolly tracking shots and Steadicam at their height so we could see them or what they were looking at,” he says. Colston made the boys’ bedroom a sanctuary. She used a soothing blue to give it a warm and comforting feel. In contrast, their mother’s bedroom oozes a sense of sickness. The curtains are dark, and the room itself is dim. “The more you get into the room, the more the world makes you question, ‘What is going on with this woman?’” Colston says. Both Colston and Dynan worked to exaggerate the sense of unease. Deep sea greens and purples were

Jordan Moreau Adam Driver is going Italian again.

Here’s the official logline: “‘Ferrari’ is set during the summer of 1957. Ex-racecar driver, Ferrari, is in crisis. Bankruptcy stalks the company he and his wife, Laura, built from nothing 10 years earlier. Their tempestuous marriage struggles with the mourning for one son and the acknowledgement of another. He decides to counter his losses by rolling the dice on one race – 1,000 miles across Italy, the iconic Mille Miglia.”

How ‘Bros’ Built an LGBTQ Museum for Billy Eichner’s Gay Rom-Com
Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor Billy Eichner’s “Bros” made history as the first gay rom-com to be given a wide theatrical release by a major studio, as well as the first with an all-openly LGBTQ cast. From the nightclub where Eichner’s Bobby meets and falls in love with Luke McFarlane’s buff Aaron, to the LGBTQ+ Museum grand opening, the Big Apple love story features several amazing sets — as well as a carefully curated DVD shelf. While production for “Bros” was originally meant to take place in Buffalo, N.Y, the pandemic thwarted plans, and with a new tax credit incentive, New Jersey became the stand-in for the rom-com (with a few scenes shot on the streets of New York and Provincetown). Sitting down with Variety, writer-director Nicholas Stoller and production designer Lisa Myers share insight into the film’s key sets.

‘Goodnight Mommy’ Review: U.S. Remake of Austrian Thriller Pulls Back on the Tension
really is — alone in the darkness, wearing a mask that covers her entire face, claiming she’s just had a medical procedure that prevents them from looking at her.Mommy has rules, like no visitors, no play dates and no entering quite a few rooms of the house. And while at first Elias and Lukas make the most of this weird visit, they quickly come to suspect that Mommy — who refuses to sing their favorite song, and has torn up the pictures they made for her — might not be their real mother at all.Sobel (“Take Me to the River”) gets the most mileage out of the film’s first half, where the mystery mounts and the children’s imagination runs rampant.
