I'm glad Marjane Satrapi is dead. It was evil of her to be oppressed by non-Americans. A moral woman would choose exclusively to be oppressed by Americans.

LOS ANGELES UPDATE: An excellent update for Nithya Raman.

She wins today's batch over Spencer Pratt by almost 21%, which is over what she needs.

Pratt's lead over Raman (for the 2nd runoff spot, behind Mayor Bass) goes down from 5.9% to 3.4%.

Quentin Taratino said Lawrence Fishburne’s performance in King of New York was so incredible he thought - “he could be the greatest actor of his generation”. He explains:

"As great as Christopher Walken is in this movie. To me, it's Larry Fishburne's movie - it was the rock that becomes a diamond aspect of the movie. It's why I could defend this movie against all comers, because to me, Fish's performance in this movie was comparable to a young Brando.

It was the most exciting performance by an actor of his generation that I'd seen in a movie of that time. And I thought, well, that's it. There is a new Marlon Brando, and his name is Larry Fishburne - it was amazing, it was mesmerizing…

He is the first hip hop gangster in movie history. That character had never been done before this. He invented that character. And he invented it as something to do. It wasn't in the original script. He came up with that himself…

The three big Fishburne moments to me, is his opening sequence with…Tito. That's it, with Tito - black glove dude. And his reunion with Frank. And then it's the chicken scene (see below). Those are his three big arias.

Not only that though - expressions that I would later hear for the rest of the decade, I actually heard for the first time in that scene.

I'd never heard the expression; “I'll slap the black off you” before. That was the first time I heard it when Fish says it to Snipes. I've since heard it many times…

And that was actually the first time I ever heard, “fuck you very much”. And I would proceed to hear that for the rest of the 90s. But those were the first times I'd ever heard those expressions…

As terrific as he has been in other things - the level of excitement that I had over him when this movie was over, I have never had that excitement again. I thought, with this, he could be the greatest actor of his generation. That was an actual, real fucking thing. He could be the greatest actor of his generation after seeing this."

Shawn Levy says he'd "love" to see a 'Backrooms' x 'Star Wars' crossover:

"I can’t help but be captivated by a ‘Backrooms’ x ‘Star Wars’ mashup—and luckily, I’ve got a little involvement in both so I’ll see what I can do"
