I’ve made a personal commitment to never again watch a LOTR adaptation that doesn’t include Tom Bombadil.

Dance with the Devil seems fun.



teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

An AI version of a lost scene from Kubrick’s The Shining. In its original release, between the shot of Jack frozen in the Colorado snow and the long zoom into Jack in the old photo of the Overlook, there was a scene where Ullman meets with Wendy and Danny in the hospital. It actually ran for a week before Kubrick pulled it because He realized it didn’t really help the movie at all. All copies of that scene would be destroyed, but enough reference material has survived for this little reconstruction.





Overall, I’m inclined to agree that He made the right decision in removing the scene. It communicates little that we couldn’t already glean from the rest of the movie. And, as expected, the AI can only do so much to make it look organic. And that’s not even going into the decision to interpolate footage from the movie or that random scene of Ullman’s apartment. It doesn’t fit in with the rest of the film at all, and there’s no way in Hell I’d still be capitalizing Kubrick’s pronouns if He shot it like that.

That scene is three minutes and twenty seconds long. The film as release clocks in at two hours and twenty six minutes. Kubrick should have cut two hours, twenty nine minutes and twenty seconds from the movie.

The Shining sucks.
