I enjoyed the movie 'A quiet place' with John Krasinski but they really
could have used a farmer for a technical advisor on that film.
How did all that corn get planted? Those monsters had been around for more than a year
and all those acres of corn were planted that spring, only a few months before.
And that's not volunteer corn, it didn't come up by itself. Its planted in rows, and not by hand.
It took a tractor and planter, and tractor's make a lot of noise. So anybody on that tractor
would have been killed after going what, ten feet. 1,000+ people would have been killed planting all that corn.
And the scene with the kids in the grain bin partly full of corn. You don't sink in grain like its quicksand or something.
You do if the corn is being augered out from the bottom of the pile of corn, many farmers have been killed that way.
But nobody is augering corn out of that bin. They would maybe sink to their ankles.
And also why does that corn look so fresh like it was put in the bin yesterday. With a gaping hole in the roof
that corn would have been rained on several times since its over a year old because that years corn
hadn't been harvested yet as you can see its still green in the fields. The corn in the bin
would have been spoiled by moisture and the smell would have stunk to high heaven.
Yes I would have been a great technical advisor for this film, it just doesn't make any sense.
Check out this image. This is grain that is being augered out of a bin.
That man would be pulled down and suffocated or injured or killed by the auger if he wasn't
harnessed with a rope. And actually he shouldn't be in that bin at all with that much grain
left in it. And this ends today's lesson on grain bin safety.
Bull we have seen Once Upon a Time in Hollywood at least 50 times. We get hooked every time while channel surfing. We were at the premier in LA as well. I met QT when he has a manager at a video store and still run into from time to time. One strange dude. In my opinion he hasn’t made a bad movie
Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
Jackie Brown
Kill Bill: Volume 1
Kill Bill: Volume 2
Death Proof
Inglorious Basterds
Django Unchained
The Hateful Eight
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Plus he wrote one of my favorite movies True Romance. That’s where I got the name for my Bull Mastiff from. Alabama
Think of all the stars that have been in his movies. Mind boggling

Walker Proof Digital Album Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

I didn't realize all of this. How did you learn about this stuff? I didn't realize farming and grain could be so dangerous. I would probably have jumped into the grain bin because it looks like it would be fun to jump around in if I were a kid playing or something.

Yep, I've watched it many times too. That's cool that you got to go to the premier in LA.
I like all his stuff.
The scene in Jackie Brown with De Niro and Fonda in the parking lot was epic.
"Lewis, Lewis, is it over here?"
@Darin That's some interesting details. Thank you for sharing.
Edit to add: In all seriousness, maybe you should become an advisor on such matters. I know that this exists for many types of areas in film, but also for writers, etc.

My fav was the exchange between Cliff and Tex over Tex's name
Tex- " I'm the devil, and I came to do the devil's business".
Cliff- " Naw, It was something dumber then that".

I saw Once upon a time in Hollywood. Did like the scene where the Manson followers
got what was coming to them. A little revisionist history there wasn't it?
But I prefer Once upon a time in the West. The classic from Sergio Leone.
Henry Fonda plays the bad guy and he wanted to wear dark contact lenses to make his eyes brown.
He thought his character would look more menacing. Leone said no, he wanted the audience to
see a closeup of those baby blues after his dastardly act in his first scene in the movie and be completely shocked.

That's what made it so great. Loved the alt ending and creative story telling. Pitt and Decapria couldn't have been better.

Brad Pitt finally won a well deserved Oscar. Wife’s favorite scene is when Brad hops on the roof and takes his shirt off.
The wife and I have an understanding. If Brad Pitt calls her she’s free to go and if Jennifer Aniston or Kate Beckinsale calls I’m free to go.
Another favorite line from the movies is when Steve McQueen says about Sharon Tate.
“I never had a chance.”
Same with me with Kate. She likes 20 year old boys.
“I never had a chance!”

I'm still waiting for Avengers Endgame to come on TV sometime when
I have time to watch it. Maybe next week when I have the whole week off.
So to tie it back to sports, and to go back to his early days, have you seen this?
