I've only seen one of his movies, which I absolutely loved. But, yeah, I don't really care about his opinions either. Or rather, I don't think his opinions should carry any more or less weight than any other director's.

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.
