I just got email notification of these comments... weird.

Anyways, the postcard says something along the lines of "You're going to die asshole." The kicker of The Player's plot is the studio exec (Tim Robbins) getting threatened by a disgruntled writer. If you've never seen it, check it out... Fantastic movie, and a great indictment of Hollywood culture.
