I don’t mind changes made in adapting material to the big screen but there are some things you just need to include in a Frankenstein movie… there was not a single shot of the Creature singing “Puttin’ on the Ritz” and that is a travesty

Remember, artists: when people say, “I’d buy a print of this,” they don’t mean it. That sentence itself is just a weird compliment that rarely converts to an actual print sale. It’s like if someone ate a very good hot dog and then said, “I could eat 10,000 of these right now.”

I made this rough dancing cat animation last night for my grandson Leo
I set it to his favorite song and tried to incorporate some of his best dance moves into it

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."

Christy and I were leaving a store and we saw this guy and watched him. Apparently, people had moved him twice into a lightly wooded area next to the parking lot but he kept coming out and crossing the pavement.

Fuck this. It's trash, it's outsourcing your own brain and creativity, outsourcing your own humanity, to a massive bullshit machine. It's the hottest steamiest smoothest BULLSHIT of the highest order and DO NOT fall for it.

One of my favorite things about rewatching the Sopranos is the constant reminder of what an absolute fucking banger the theme song is

Wrote and Penciled an 8 page comic this week to experimental with a few things and started inking it last night.
When you do something quick with no expectations except to see how things play out, it makes it easy to remember what you love about the entire process

Green screen sets and the stupid Volume bullshit have become so commonplace that watching “Black Rabbit” was refreshing to watch just for the fact that it was obviously filmed on location and on actual sets.
It feels like an actual story in the actual world because of that
