I always look forward to these, very informative and you get to see people learn from each other as well.

Amy Adams every damn year. I figure she would have run out of things to say by now.

The actors roundtables always have this "Oh I am the biggest fan of everyone at this table but I'm really here because I want to win an Oscar!" atmosphere.

The Actors - Eddie Redmayne (The Theory of Everything), Ethan Hawke (Boyhood), Timothy Spall (Mr. Turner), Benedict Cumberbatch (The Imitation Game) Channing Tatum (Foxcatcher) and Michael Keaton (Birdman)

Angelina Jolie (Unbroken), Christopher Nolan (Interstellar), Richard Linklater (Boyhood), Mike Leigh (Mr. Turner), Bennett Miller (Foxcatcher) and Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game) discuss their new films, open up about ethics, fears, family and what drives them: "We're all kind of control freaks, right?"

Yeah I'm gonna pick a day this week and just watch 'em all.

Jolie looks fine as fuck in that video. Would bang.

The cinematographers behind from some of the year's most visually striking movies - Roger Deakins (Unbroken), Dion Beebe (Into the Woods), Jeff Cronenweth (Gone Girl), Benoit Delhomme (The Theory of Everything) Matthew Libatique (Noah) and Dick Pope (Mr. Turner) - discuss film vs. digital, how to develop a relationship with a director & high-dynamic-range technologies.

Thanks dex for picking up my slack

The Executives round table was fascinating, if not a bit too full of typical CEO speak. Man, Langley seems so out of her depth alongside the others.

at Horn calling the Thor films "Shakespearian dramas". Everyone else had a good laugh, too.

Solid Snake

I don't typically like to use an hour for a youtube video but these things are very interesting.

I was interested in how the Paramount and Universal execs responded.

dex14

I found those interviewers very hostile and quite rude.

Solid Snake

They're trying to be respectful but they're all trying to one up each other. Horn was one they kind of targeted a bit there. The IFC guy was the only one that happily was in his own little game.

dex14

Not the executives... the women from THR interviewing them.

Solid Snake

No, I'm just saying.

But those ladies were trying to get something out of them for sure. Especially the skinny one. She was pretty antagonistic.

islandclaws

I'd agree. They were trying to dig for dirt in an interview all these executives know isn't meant to be terribly substantial. They're there to discuss the state of film and how their respective studios operate, not deliver damning exclusives THR can use for click bait.

sauce07

The Producers - Peter Chernin, Eric Fellner, John Lesher (Birdman), Marc Platt, Cathleen Sutherland (Boyhood) and Emma Thomas (Interstellar)


The Composers - Marco Beltrami (The Homesman), Danny Elfman (Big Eyes), John Powell (How To Train Your Dragon 2), Trent Reznor (Gone Girl) and Hans Zimmer (Interstellar)

This has been the most interesting non-award roundtable that the Hollywood Reporter has had... tho a bit tight lipped, I thought most of the studio heads we candid enough to see through some of the smoke screens to tough questions.

^ Thanks for getting that up. Here are the people involved in the Executive Roundtable.

Donna Langley (Universal Pictures), Tom Rothman (Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group), Rob Moore (Paramount Pictures), Stacey Snider (20th Century Fox), Alan Horn (The Walt Disney Studios), and Rob Friedman (Lionsgate Motion Picture Group).

Am I missing it... or are all the actor ones only broken up into 5 minute segments. No full ones yet?

They post the full length videos later. I think these things air on some cable channel first.

sauce07

they're definitely taking a longer time to put out the full roundtables this year

EddieMoney

Why is David O. Russell part of this? "Joy" wasn't even that well-received.
