Yeah, okay, okay. I get the picture. And I even understand why you feel this way. I'm not saying there aren't differences. Socially, she's a little... underprivileged. But when we're alone, I feel good. Very good. Relaxed. Wanted and accepted. You know that crazy stuff that we all carry around inside of us? That stuff that eats little holes in your brain and churns at your insides? That stuff that you know you cannot possibly tell another living human being? I can tell her. And she listens. And she understands. And she says it's all right. It's all right. And it is. Poof! Just like your magic, Harry. She makes my problems disappear, my anxieties subside. God's in his heaven. All is right with the world. There's no way to go but up. Look for the silver lining. Don't give up the ship. And I'll be damned if that's not what each and every one of us is looking for and I just happened to find mine. So the best of luck to the rest of you. Ladies and gentlemen, a small peek into the guts of Dan Fielding. No cover, no minimum... Well. if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have lunch with my fiancée.

Victor: It hurts. Dr. Saunders: I know it does. It won't always. Victor: I'm not my best anymore. I want to be my best. Dr. Saunders: Yes. I know you do. Victor: How can I be my best now? Dr. Saunders? How can I be my best, please? Dr. Saunders: You can't, Victor. You can't be your best. Your best is...  past. Your past you can't even remember. You're ugly now. You're disgusting. All you can hope for now is pity. And for that, you're gonna have to look somewhere else.

Alexa: Did... did you ever think about having kids? Mark: With Gemma? Alexa: Yes. Mark: Yeah, we tried for a little while. It wasn't really working. We talked about adopting at one point, but... I don't know. Then you think, "Okay. This is the life you've been given. And, uh, that's another life, and you don't get that one. So do something with this." Alexa: That's very healthy. Mark: Well, it's mostly stuff she said. She was, uh, very pragmatic. Always had a plan B. You know, one time we were supposed to go on this camping trip and... Is it weird that I'm talking about her right now? I feel like... Alexa: No, I think it's all so healthy. Mark: Yeah, but we're on a date. I... Alexa: I haven't walked out on you yet. Mark: You know, sometimes I think... she'd want me to get off my ass. And sometimes I think she's not worried about me at all. She's just pissed that she's dead. Sorry, I know this doesn't totally make sense. Alexa: She's a part of you. You know? You can't just separate yourself... Mark: Oh, no, but you can, Alexa. Alexa: Oh. Oh, shit. Mark: With this exciting new procedure. Alexa: Walked right into that. Mark: Yes. You did.

Walk through the city, like stupid people do. A million faces, but all I'm seeing is you. I'm stopping strangers and telling them your name Convincing haters one day they'll feel the same

We're common people. We're common people in love. It's supernatural. It's just a force from above. Some call me crazy. Some try to make me shut up. If I am crazy, that's what you made me!

(Chorus) I said, “You're the only one I wanna talk about.” (x3) Yeah it's true. All I do is wanna talk about you.

Walk through the jungle that used to be my town. Everything's different. You've turned it upside down. It happened to me, totally unprepared Just the beginning, but I'm not even scared

'Cause living like this is risking all that I know And if it kills me, that's the way I wanna go So pull me under and put me under your spell Rather be crazy than normal people in hell

(Chorus)

-Mika, “Talk About You”

I said you’re the only one I wanna talk about

[jbbdude]

You know, being trapped in this bed, it's like I'm held hostage by regrets. I'm realizing, even before I got sick, I made everybody around me suffer. And now, I'm just all alone... I spent my whole life surrounded by crowds. Now, I'm by myself. And I'm staring over the edge. And I don't understand what I'm looking at.

Not easy, is it, being clever? You look at the world and you connect things, random things. You think, “Why can’t anyone else see it?”. The rest of the world is so slow.

You chose to do the right thing, over and above what was sanctioned, even at great cost to yourself. And that is the kind of thinking that wins wars. The kind of thinking I need next to me. Universal law is for lackeys. Context is for kings. Now, what’s it to be, Michael? What’s in your future? What do you wish for? Atonement? Redemption? Maybe the assurance that the captain you lost didn’t die in vain? You helped start a war. Don’t you wanna help me end it?

Dear Asami,

I’m sorry I haven’t written to you sooner but every time I tried…I never know what to say. The past two years have been the hardest of my life. Even though I can get around fine now I still can’t go in to the Avatar state. I keep having visions of Zaheer and what happened that day. Katara thinks a lot of this is in my head so I’ve been meditating a lot but sometimes I worry I’ll never fully recover. Please don’t tell Mako and Bolin I wrote to you and not them. I don’t want to hurt their feelings, but it’s easier to tell you about this stuff. I don’t think they’d understand.

[jbbdude]

Oh, fuck. Ah. This is it. This is just all part of the Bradley Jackson ride, isn't it? You know I'm never gonna be your enemy. I'm never going to let that happen. I only want what's best for you. And for some inscrutable reason, you won't just trust that that's true. And I'm not saying I didn't do anything wrong. I did, and I'm sorry. But I needed you to understand that I had my reasons. And if you have an issue with me or with anybody in the future, if you could just try to see your way to not assume the worst from me. To not channel whatever it is that you're feeling through that beautiful little anger prism that lives in your heart and makes you so exciting, and know that I am there to help you solve, or at least help you get through any problems. I'm on your side. Always. Besides, I'm too old to have enemies. It's weird when you're 51 years old and you got enemies. So...

When I walked into our house that day, you broke me into a million pieces. And ever since then, I've been trying to put myself back together, but I just, I can't do it. Okay? I'm like a plate that got dropped. You try to glue it back together, but some pieces they're just, they're gone. I will never be whole again. Ever. Alright? I think one of those missing pieces has got to be forgiveness, Lucy, because try as I might, I just, I can not forgive you. I will never forgive you. All that I have left for you now is hatred. Okay? Just know wherever you are out there, whatever the hell it is you're doin', I'll be out there too. I'm just a burning ember of hatred directed right at you. Okay? You're my true north. My hatred will always find you.

A mirror to an industry and genre. A deconstruction. A behind the scenes superior to the film (or really in place of the originally intended film), not unlike Heart of Darkness, Lost in La Mancha, The Sweatbox, They’ll Love Me When I’m Dead, Jodorowsky’s Dune, and of course the ultimate product in the genre, Abed Nadir’s Documentary Filmmaking: Redux.

This is the funnies video I’ve seen in a looooooong time!

”Some movies are like scams. It’s like buying blueprints to a house that looks nice, but when you try to actually build the house it doesn’t stand up properly. That is a thing that happens with films and I recognize it sometimes. Where I will see a movie and be like, ‘Oh they lied, whoever wrote and directed this movie lied.’ They made it seem like they were selling the studio an actual, functional film but they did not. They sold them like the schematics of a movie that when built does not hold up to stress testing. I’ll only say this because it was reported and I’m going to tread lightly because I am close with many of the people involved, but I did that on the Dr. Dolittle film.

It’s like, on the grand scale of positions to be in as a writer, it’s a cushy position to be in. Stakes are low for you personally in that role which is nice. But it’s also like, you want to help! I like movies and I like reactors in that movie and I don’t want anyone to not be happy with the movie. Universal, who made that movie, have been very supportive of me and my career and made a lot of our movies…They were having problems with the movie and were calling in people to help kind of get to the bottom of it.”

When you find that one person who connects you to the world, you become someone different. Someone better. When that person is taken from you, what do you become then?
