From my observations, there are two kinds of creative artist:

Everytime you have a CG establishing shot, you have to have a flock of birds flying through it, to give it scale. Every time. EVERYTIME.

Danny Trejo - again.

Danny Trejo?

The shorter one with the goddam narration, 'cause Harrison's voice is so cool.

Her lips are full of saline.

He's not the regular square-jawed hero, which is good. What I really like about his character is that he is a secret nerd - all these beer swilling good ol boys admiring a guy who thinks for a living.
