“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

Hey! If you’ve ever liked my voice, now, before the end of the year, would be a really good time to hire me for any SAG-approved projects!

Asking as someone who loves VO, and also really loves having halfway decent health insurance

Superman is a very tidy example of why it is not automatically good screenwriting for characters to behave in a way their audience thinks is recognizable and intelligent.

They can write “Why would he do that” on the focus group card, but the answer is “That is the entire point of the movie.”
If Superman saving that squirrel made you angry I literally want nothing to do with you, like at all.

One of the biggest problems with the world is that fools are always so sure and certain about everything and intelligent people are so full of doubts and uncertainties.
