"She live-tweets everything. Ruined Downton Abbey for me."

I do have a hard time imagining he made a worse movie than Social Network.

Resurrection is a movie I have history with arguinng with Whedon fans about. They want to say it was entirely 'the director's' fault that Whedon's terrible script didn't work (and the director is anonymous because who is Jeunet to these people?) but yes, it is exactly that.

The thing is there have been dozens of great games inspired by Aliens. Doom was directly inspired by it with the whole space marine claptrap, and it proliferated to the point it became a cliche… which is the problem. What can you do with the Aliens license that hasn't been done without it?

That company has in turn blamed Gearbox for giving them very little time to make the game or something like that. Nobody wants blame for A:CM.

Okay I admit I did it with Walking Dead season two. But I knew I pretty much had to get that game.

Don't think so. But who know?

It's not cheery, but it's also not as uncomfortable as An Act of Killing. It really is a memoir with woodcarvings - tragic and introspective and wryly personal.

I'd forgotten about that. I prefer to remember that he was on Sky One's Sinbad (which IIRC Syfy imported), where at least he had a starring role.

Memory is a funny thing, clearly.
