Last year, the best script I ever wrote placed in just one contest and only got a 3 on the Black List. Now, it's going to be a movie distributed by A24 and co-directed by Christopher Nolan and Martin Scorsese. On a budget of $180 million. Never give up on your dreams, guys

We (@blackwoodsentmt) have an indie horror (A Gettysburg Haunting @aghaunting) ready for purchase and are currently shopping it around/looking for the right distributor. If that’s you or you know someone looking for a 90 minute horror movie, hit me up

When you finally break into the industry after you've spent years trying to break into the industry

Getting ready to write the 5 best damn pages of my life

Just started watching SPIDER-NOIR starring the great Nicholas Cage. A fun, stylish superhero show set in an alternate Spider-Man universe, with a film noir twist. And it just won 5 Emmy Awards! I wish I’d checked it out before it got canceled, but that's life. Highly recommend.

OFFICE SPACE, BARRY, GET OUT, and now WIDOW'S BAY. Stephen Root has been quietly stealing scenes for decades, so it's great to see him win an Emmy! #Emmys

Summer's almost over, so you know what that means. Time to put away the beach towels, roll up your sleeves, and mentally prepare yourself for the crushing disappointment that this industry always brings you in the last few months of every year

Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan should win Emmys for their fight scenes in BEEF alone

Me trying to get anyone in Hollywood to read one of my scripts: “It’s the ODYSSEY meets OBSESSION meets BACKROOMS meets PROJECT HAIL MARY meets SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY”

25 Years. I love you NYC.

Which show are you rooting for to win Best Comedy Series at the Emmys on Monday?

The first draft of your screenplay vs. the final draft of your screenplay

Two of the best movies of the year were films by directors in their 20s who honed their chops online. Films that I liked more than some by directors with decades of experience. If that doesn’t tell you about the need for Hollywood to seek fresh blood, I don’t know what will

I was today years old when I learned that Nora on FURIOUS (the great Quincy Tyler Bernstine) also played Brenda in “When Keeping it Real Goes Wrong” (Chappelle show sketch)

This time last year, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said that releasing movies in theaters was "an outmoded idea for most people" and that consumers wanted "to watch movies at home." Today, movie theaters have scored their biggest weekend of all time at the global box office.

Ecstatic for the success of THE ODYSSEY, but I'm really, really starting to wonder when Christopher Nolan is gonna get around to directing my movie

Really enjoying RIDE OR DIE on Amazon Prime, it's so much fun. Besides the fact that it stars the uber-talented Octavia Spencer and Hannah Waddingham, and they have a ton of chemistry, it's just refreshing to see this type of show headlined by female leads over 40. Check it out!

I don't care if you loved THE ODYSSEY or hated it. Your opinion is perfectly valid just as long as you judge the film on its own merits. But if you're mad about a Black Helen of Troy or a trans actor in the cast, you're fighting a losing battle in a culture war where only one side bothered to show up. The rest us just shrug and worry about real things that are actually hurting our country. If you can't enjoy any movie unless the cast is exclusively White and cis-het, you're gonna have a hard time finding anything new to watch. As far as I can tell the only music you have left other than country is Kid Rock, the artist formerly known as Kanye, and Ted Nugent. Even things like the NFL – the most all-American sport God ever invented – are now off-limits because they are suddenly too "woke" for you. You're not winning because the rest of us aren't playing that game. All you're doing is making your world – and your own teeny-tiny little mind – ever smaller with each passing day. Until there's nothing left but anger, alienation, AI slop, and internet porn. And the pool of women who will want to date you has shrunk down to the size of a single drop of water
