Donnie Darko - a stunning example of how style cannot overcome substance. Hey, if you currently write or wish to write for cinema ... stop. I've had enough twilight zone references, and we certainly don't need any further '...demons let loose upon the earth to lower the standard.'(Thankyou departed Hicks).

What attracts you to this position ?

I could even be growing weary of a life behind glass. Covered in a qualia resistant slick that all but confirm my darkest phenomenological concepts.

Checking under the hood has only confirmed my suspicions that on certain nights the universe will actually ( Read more... )

You have to be free to think up things. They come along, these ideas, and they hook themselves together, and the unifying thing is the euphoria they give you, or the repulsion they give you (and you throw those ideas away). If they're all stringing themselves together and they're forming a story that's carrying forward, the first way you can kill ( Read more... )

'Summer fling don't mean a thing but oh oh the summer nights...' The radio aurally carpet bombs my waking form with bad eighties musical candy. It gently nudges me awake with all the persuasion of a masseuse with meat-cleaver hands. God, I can't remember what I drank last night, but I can distinctly taste misanthropy and melancholy. My head is ( Read more... )
