There are 2 small moments in the film One Battle After Another that closely resemble moments from my film.
I choose to take this as irrefutable proof that PTA is a huge fan of my work.
Loved talking OBAA with @dougtilley.bsky.social and @liamrulz.bsky.social

As we live in the more dumpster fire times now than even three years ago, the disaster character that is Casper is more and more reliable. Some sketches I made last year @artana.bsky.social

Really enjoyed this conversation where we go deep into the movie’s ideas and I even get challenged on some of them.
We also talk nerdy filmmaking stuff and of course working with the great Rhys Darby!
(I obviously do not co-sign the Quebec OR Cronenberg slander…)

Pick up somethin' Canadian from boutique brands like Canadian International Pictures or Gold Ninja Video!
Or, heck, just look around and see what Canadian film has to offer (like @lukehigginson.bsky.social's awesome RELAX, I'M FROM THE FUTURE).

Second viewing of A Different Man last night. Fucking love this movie.
Could have gone wrong in a million different ways, but nails its dark, funny, brilliant tone throughout.
Scratches a very specific itch I haven’t felt since Being John Malkovich

I always liked David Lynch’s work, but it wasn’t until I started trying to make my own films that I understood how truly special he was.

This was a very fun and thoughtful interview until with about 3 minutes left I answer a question by saying I am ‘pro-history’ and that history is ‘important stuff’, which makes me sound like an absolute moron who has never read a history book.
Nice quick interview with @lukehigginson.bsky.social about #RelaxImFromTheFuture including a bit of Luke saying lovely things about Rhys Darby (and #OFMD) about the 9.37 mark. I love hearing Luke talk about his fabulously qurky little gem of a film!
