Ha, I said the same thing, and he responded:

“It’s certainly not void of violence or anything (don’t worry, there’s still Zahler violence here, i.e. disembowelment, extremities getting blown off etc. lol), it’s just not as much part of the main aesthetic or draw as in Brawl and Bone, like he’s not trying to top himself when it comes to violence at all. It’s more naturally integrated with what the story calls for.”

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.

If I ever made it as an actor I'm 100% sure I'd be completely bloated and gross within five years. I don't know how most of these guys avoid it for as long as they do. I'd be eating and drinking til I was a fucking blimp.

I am frankly horrified that anyone still watches movies cropped, edited, and riddled with commercials. Surely Paul F. Tompkins can, at the very least, afford a fucking iTunes rental. Jesus Christ.

He’s not. He’s live posting the movie. And he did other movies already.

I guess I'll put this here.

Pluto TV currently has Blade Runner: The Final Cut streaming for free (I think all content on Pluto is free). Most smart TVs have Pluto.

Listening to Adam Driver in an interview right now and he keeps saying "obviously" and it reminds me of the interview I did with LV and how I kept saying "obviously."

Basically, I'm saying that Adam Driver and I should be best friends.

Sometimes studio interference is a good thing. Jack White probably would have been terrible in A Star is Born.

He lives near you as far as I know. Is it Williamsburg? Somewhere round there
