UPDATE!!!

So, I'm having another tiff with Kris from In Contention (criticising him = sorta funny cause he does not react well at all) and I thought I'd update you about the last one we had.

INFAMOUS STILL HASN'T BEEN RELEASED!


Phew. Good to know other countries don't get the chance to see these movies. For maybe a few months after that first little argument I thought my point would be PROVEN WRONG! But, no! Aussie distributers continue to amaze me. Now Kris can attend his Hollywood parties with crabcakes knowing he saw Infamous before most people. Of course there were those people (aka, "everyone else") who saw it before him, which I'm sure still shocks and appals him to this very day. Scary, huh?

edit: Okay, so, I loved Kris' latest reply.

It is just you.

I'm giving you a space to read about what's happening inside. It's about pulling back the mystery and giving these people a face for the readership to be a little closer. It's what I've always tried to do and what I'll continue to do.

Take it or leave it.


"pulling back the mystery"? LOL. He was discussing crabcakes and how Guillermo Navarro reminds him of Alexandre Desplat. Big fuckin' mystery that is. Maybe if he overheard some stuff or if he discussed the actual conversations he had with these people then it'd be good, but just having someone talk about a party they were at isn't really interesting (He was there. ooh! And she was there too, but so-and-so wasn't and then I laughed at a joke and I had a drink and then I went to the bathroom! And then I saw somebody I know but didn't actually talk to them.)

He really needs to learn to handle criticism better if he wants to be a writer.
