I know you don’t do video games, amiga, but...

The Homeowner’s Association Of The Planet Of The Ape- wait, no, that’s too evil.

I just spent the last hour chatting with an Archibald Prize-winner, talking about the analogue is making a return, about how the artist’s individuality is in every individual brushstroke, about how the tactility and tangibility of art is something that cannot be effectively clone and copy-pasted into ones and zeros,

Only a dipshit trophy wife could come up with the idea of a “Reality Star Union”, a concept that undermines very tissue-thin premise of reality TV in the fuck first.

There’s a lot of directors where you go “Oh, man, this cinematography really serves the story”, but with Tarsem, it is as much the story as the dialogue. It’s like if Ron Fricke did fiction.

Right? It’s just a bog-standard must-find-serial-killer’s-victim-who-might-still-be-alive plot, but it’s Tarsem’s vision that elevates it. And the sci-fi elements are, if you think about it, kinda trite and pat. But you don’t, because it gets you to the dreamscapes.

Yeah, that was half the point of moving to LA: to simply make it less and less enticing for people like Rife and Dowd to keep working here - so they could switch to having full-time clickbaiters. It’s not that the AV Club is shitty because they accidentally hired bad writers - they deliberately sought out those

This is Nash erasure.

I’m really not. You’re just doing the ‘Murrican thing where you try enforce your perspective on everyone else, because it’s less threatening to you than trying to understand anything outside your own solipsism. 

Tarsem got the rights back, and has a 4K transfer!

Great news! Tarsem’s got the rights back to the film, and he said he’s got a 4K transfer ready-to-go.

Well put. Both are highly stylised, it’s just that one’s style isn’t shit. And that one ain’t Zack.

Ye wouldn't be suggestin' I use...ARTIFICIAL CONTRACEPTION now, would ye, Father? 

It shouldn't have let its colony get nukes in the first place. 

And yet you get to speak for all Jewish people? Fascist, much?

Have a sook, cunt. 

Ah. I knew this would activate you. 

Nothing like paranoia when entering the minds of the severely psychologically-damaged, eh?
