I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Affleck and Damon weren’t as bad as i thought they would be, though

I didn't think so! I thought it was fundamental to the movie's examination of consent and power and with a few exceptions I didn't feel like it was re-treading old ground.
