It makes me want to watch action movies and I don’t even like action movies.

People seem to forget that H-wood didn’t even give a shit about Rushmore in 1998…Murray couldn’t score an Oscar nod, much less Wes or Owen or Jason. But now that Anderson hasn’t made a good film in 7 years, they’re falling all over themselves to praise and imitate his films and those like it.

Why so chickenshit about making that Lincoln movie? Leave the blog and work on that. Indy 4 gave me assburn.

But is that enough?

The Playlist is a respected Brooklyn hipster Brooklyn film Brooklyn blog outlet that appeals successfully to an overlooked niche, and thus its support is crucial to ensuring this totally rad film hangs ten.

Also, I would like to let you onto a big exclusive tip – we are going to bet big on irony for Away We Go’s campaign. We will do things like bombard Williamsburg with branded, fluorescent fanny packs and sun visors, and film a viral video of Michael Cera reciting Shakespeare and making out with an imaginary lemon.

I think he’s 4 for 4 so far IMHO. Marketing departments are a scared group of people and I think they should have to credit who makes the trailers…then we can know for sure who to blame.
