Thank you

- I am buzzing, it’s dream-come-true stuff, I’m still processing it to be honest. I’ve been watching the Academy Awards all my life. Nuts.
Hey
@johngreen
- my daughter just finished your book and loved it so much she hand-made a poster from scratch with her favourite quotes on it. Thought you’d enjoy seeing how your writing is still moving young people around the world.
@coreysfrost
Yes indeed we did. 860 knots is too fast for an F/A-18 flying that low through a canyon. This was corrected during the edit to 660, but it is an important piece of information to see & hear the protagonist deliver on camera, and we thought we’d got away with it (until now).

Hi
@mccrabb_will
- Yes it’s a deliberate cut to a different take to heighten the impact of the smash, and allow us to feel Grace’s emotional reaction. All these cuts are crafted carefully over months of tiny revisions to every sequence.
Absolutely LOVED Wonka. This film will bring so much joy to families everywhere over Christmas. Thank you
@markeverso
and the entire cast and crew for a wonderful new classic movie musical.
Godzilla Minus One is terrific. See it as soon as possible. What a surprise. Loved it. Wonderfully simple and incredibly effective character based storytelling. One of the best movies of the year.
When
@KermodeMovie

@simonmayo

BOOM! Spot on McQ. I've attached screen grabs from the original dailies, the lens info is in the top left. The profile of Ilsa riding was also a 75mm. All 35mm anamorphic.
@charletty_
Many times. Just keep going, one shot at a time, get to the end, don’t worry if it’s any good yet. Take a break (for a few days if you can) then review, revise, recut. Stay calm. Trust the process. You’ll get there.
Hey
@YoWalleyB
- my daughters and I just finished Season 3 of Anne With An E here in London. Thank you. We LOVED it. Happy times and lots of emotional tears as we bid farewell to your wonderful show. :-)

This movie absolutely works as a stand-alone experience. You do not have to do any Mission movie homework, I hope you enjoy the ride Colin. Thanks for watching.

@MissionMemes
Yes it’s 28 minutes in... we tried the main titles (beautifully crafted by
@FilmographLA
) in +many+ places and only settled on this in the last week of editing (after well over two and a half years). But yes they work so well where they are and feel just right.
@AladinLeMalin
@charletty_
Tom always gives us lots of variety so we can refine and refine the edit until it all flows perfectly. I think we had around 30 line readings from the dailies, then McQ and I reviewed them all carefully and landed on that combination after trying lots of options.
Thoroughly enjoyed

@RealRonHoward
- this Star Wars fan felt the movie delivered more than I dared hope. Bravo.
Hey
@oliviawilde
- look what we went to see on our date night. LOVED LOVED LOVED your movie. Hooted with laughter all the way through. Incredible directing, cast, script, music, editing, cinematography, production design, wardrobe. HUGE congrats to you & your entire team.

@SteveHullfish
It was the first sequence I worked on because all the USS Lincoln footage was a pre-shoot. Then we kept updating as new footage came in. I think we locked the opening montage over a year and a half later. Crucial sequence because you have to win the audience over in two minutes.

Hello friends. Please consider supporting my fantastic assistant editor Grace Couzins as she donates her hair to The Little Princess Trust this weekend.
This is exactly what all of us who have been frustrated with motion smoothing and labyrinthine tv settings have been asking for. It is very, very exciting.
@MissionMemes
Hats off to you. That’s a lot of terrific detailed work. Thrilled you enjoy the film. See you at the movies for Top Gun: Maverick, you will not be disappointed.
@stephaniefilo
It’s a main-on-end, but I think Iron Man 3 is jawdroppingly good, the most inventive use of split screen ever used for a title sequence. It blows me away every time.

@meganphelps
your podcast The Witch Trials of JK Rowling is absolutely fantastic. I learned a lot and thought the writing, research, pace and production was world class. An amazing series. Everyone should listen. Looking forward to your epilogue episode. Thank you.
@joerussotweets
YES, bless you sir. I cannot fathom why TV manufacturers leave this ON by default. It’s heartbreaking for every filmmaker on the planet.
Shout out to
@robsimonsen
for his sublime score for The Way Back. I have had it on hard rotation for weeks. A wonderful score to have playing while you edit. Thank you.
