The Northman

“I think I’ve delivered the most entertaining version,” he said. “The most entertaining version is not necessarily something I’m usually striving for. But it was here, you know, and it happened.”

Eggers praised New Regency but described the editing process as the most painful experience of his life. “Frankly, I don’t think I will do it again,” he said. “Even if it means, like, not making a film this big ever again. And, by the way, I’d like to make a film this big. I’d like to make one even bigger. But, without control, I don’t know. It’s too hard on my person.”

****.
 
I'm also wondering if we're even going to get another trailer.
 
Just remember pandemic has slowed a lot of things down. Also, this is a Focus Features release. It's division of Universal, but it doesn't have full marketing muscle power of Universal behind it.
 
FYI

Saw a TV spot for the film during WWE Raw tonight. So they're getting out there.
 
Eggers really thinks we want to see Willem Dafoe naked, doesn’t he?

Dafoe did an erotic movie with Madonna. One of the producers on set spoke about how he was naked on set all the time. He also mentioned that Madona both liked and was annoyed by this. lawd.
IIRC, Madonna chose Dafoe to be in the movie in the first place because of how famously... gifted he is in certain regions.

see above :o
 
As I recall, the director thought that Dafoe had a medical condition as his appendage was “too big.”
 
I'm furious all over again at Dafoe not winning an Oscar for The Lighthouse.

This snubbed was a big one. Kinda how Elba was hugely snubbed for 'Beasts of No Nation'. A role that would no doubt make him the lead favorite for the Oscar in any year. In a way, Elba, was the sacrifice for all the NOW streaming nominated films/performances which happen now.
 
The lobster rant is literally an all-time great scene.
