I feel like if a film is well-written, then the character's arc is complete. There really is very little room to expand on that afterwards. It's deliberate that a lot of my films have been period pieces. There's a shortage of perfects breasts in this world. It would be a pity to damage yours. I do not envy the headache you will have when you awake. In the meantime, dream of large women. I think that two-dimensional film will always be here to stay because it always has its place, but 3D does too. I've been doing some writing, which I find very cathartic and fun.

The world is spinning too fast
I'm buying lead Nike shoes
To keep myself tethered
To the days I try to lose
My mama said to slow down
You must make your own shoes
Stop dancing to the music
Of Gorillaz in a happy mood
Keep a mild groove on
Ba ba ba
Day dee bop
There you go
Get the cool
Get the cool shoe shine
There's a monkey in the jungle
Watching a vapor trail
Caught up in the conflict
Between his brain and his tail
And if time's elimination
Then we got nothing to lose
Please repeat the message
It's the music that we choose
Keep a mild groove on
Ba ba ba
Day dee bop
Okay, bring it down yeah
We gonna break out
Get the cool
Get the cool shoe shine
Ah, ah, ah, ah
