twin films

Twin films are films with the same or similar plots produced and released within a close proximity of time by two different film studios. The phenomenon can result from two or more production companies investing in similar scripts at the same time, resulting in a race to distribute the films to audiences. Some attribute twin films to industrial espionage, the movement of staff between studios, or that the same screenplays are sent to several film studios before being accepted. Another possible explanation is if the films deal with topical issues, such as volcanic eruptions, reality television, terrorist attacks, or significant anniversaries, resulting in multiple discovery of the concept.

Screenwriter Terry Rossio notes that there are always film projects with similar subjects being developed in multiple studios, and that usually only one of them makes it into production in a given period of time, and therefore twin films are better regarded as exceptions to this tendency.

film

Common phrase used by supposed-to-be-retired geography teachers. Often comes in the form of a decade old 7-10 minute YouTube video.

Usually accompanied by a two-page 'worksheet' which was thrown together on Google Docs in under 5 minutes.

So we're just going to watch a film today, I've also got this handout I'll be giving you.
