Takashi Miike's seminal (literally), ultra-gore manga-adapted tale of The Number One Killer, his friend The Other Number One Killer, this Lady Who Kills, and a few other Notable Killers. It's mad, it's undeniably well-crafted, and it may just be the most faithful comic book adaptation of all time. Let's talk.

Here's a weird thing! This is us and our extended fam reading a spec script we just finished. It's called "Force of Nature," and it's an action/thriller in the vein of Die Hard.

In the case of "Bust," our spec script for a comedic, heist-centered TV thriller about "What If The MythBusters Did Crimes?," we pitched it for years and now the MythBusters aren't really relevant, so that's that. But as a Beloved Bean, you...
