In the course of my day, I encounter a lot of interesting people with cool stories to tell. My new friend Tabitha is in an upcoming independent film that I am very eager to see.
Truth or Dare

I love independent cinema and have a disdain for modern Hollywood that borders on blood lust. For example, I’d like to see Michael Bay killed in a very small, uncinematic explosion. I’d like to hit George Lucas over the head with Steven Spielberg for what they did to Indiana Jones. If it wasn’t for Miramax, most of the movies I like might never get made. (I’m looking at you, Kevin Smith, and giving the Buddy Christ thumbs up.)
I’ll be posting more on this subject in the future as it is something I’m passionate about and would someday like to write my own film. Something along the lines of “The Legend of 1900” meets the “Tao of Steve”. OK, I’ll probably write something more along the lines of “Police Academy” meets “American Pie: Band Camp”, but at least it will be mine.
