I don't think it's a bad bargain, with FF he made more money he could spend in his lifetime. After FF he can go the Robert Pattinson route of doing indie stuff outside his circle, for nothing or little money, or even produce his own stuff. I don't think it's over for him, it only is if he insists in going for hard men doing hard stuff type films.

I’m actually shocked every time I watch The Iron Giant to learn Diesel provided the voice of that character. Maybe it was Brad Bird’s direction or the fact he was genuinely at a creative stage in his career, but Diesel gave the character life, a heart, feelings, emotions and a soul from a few moans, groans and the odd sentence. That’s how I’ll always think of him.

Sidney Lumet’s name needs to be mentioned more often when discussing all-time great directors. Like Scorsese, he was able to seamlessly adapt from generation to generation, debuting in Hollywood’s “golden age” with 12 Angry Men, giving us New Hollywood classics in the form of Dog Day Afternoon and Network, then ending his career five decades after it began with the more obscure yet criminally underrated Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead

Danny, I have to say, your work has quickly become a collection of my favorite film esseys to come out recently. So many of film essayist have become these obnoxious, loud, perpetually irritated about something personalities chasing what is trendy, what is hip to hate on in the moment. Their thumbnails are flashy and overdone, the titles are clickbait-y and sometimes in conflict with what the video is about. And your work has not the smallest trace of that. It is genuine and filled with obvious passion and endless curiousty for the craft of filmmaking. You videos are focused and only ever concerned with the single point they are trying to make - no more, no less. Really, what your channel reminds me the most is another incredible film essey channel that has long since been closed down. Every Frame A Painting. The fascination and love for cinema I hear in your voice is the same that I used to hear in the voice of Tony Zhou and the words of Taylor Ramos. I hope to see the same recognition given to you in time. Cheers, my friend, have a good one!

It is kind of sad because when this movie came out he had already been in XXX, The Fast and the Furious, and The Chronicles of Riddick, which showed off his action chops, but I feel like this caused him to get stuck in it and were his most successful movies at the time where he was the lead whereas Find Me Guilty failed at the box office, so he probably thought there was no way out. If he only fought back a bit and went for the occasional drama or comedy roles, we would be remembering him in a different light, as the guy who is good at acting but does action movies, shit who knows he might have had an Oscar nom if he went down this path. Kind of like Tom Cruise in a sense but not as prominent.

I find this channel continuously interesting and thought provoking. Thanks, Danny, for the insight and for raising the awareness of some little-known gems.

Imagine Vin Diesel and David Blaine talking to each-other about the mysteries of the Universe.

People mock Diesel, but I've always liked the guy. There's nothing wrong with being an action star after all. The F&F movies allow him to have fun and work with people he likes. He also has enough money to get movies like The Last Witch Hunter made that are good entertainment even without requiring good reviews. He may not be Sidney Poitier, but he's a good leading man who clearly takes pleasure in the process of making movies and telling stories.

Always thought Vin had heaps of potential. Great early performances. He never should have got stuck in a single franchise or even just action.

I unironically love the Riddick movies. They are actually a good bit of science fantasy, and Vin makes them entertaining. He embodies Riddick like no one else could and does it lovingly across multiple forms of media.

The joy of meeting the people who inspired you and the passion for making the movie really does seep through to the audience in a hundred different ways, even if you can pin point each one. Feels like there's not a whole lot of movies like that anymore... Just can just feel that it was another money-grab.
