Donald Duck is the greatest character in all of fiction. He is the purest embodiment of both classic Greek tragedy and modern comedy. He is a distillation of how all drama works. He also has a funny voice.
It's unreal to me that 10 years later people still watch and love VGHS.
Not gonna lie. Can make the hard creative days much easier.
Thanks
@jschlatt
for the wonderful trip down memory road and for introducing our weird show to a new audience.
I thought people were exaggerating about the Christopher Nolan story. But then I went back to look at his films... and seriously. The dude has no chairs on set.
If you wanna know what Hollywood is like, we once had a meeting with a studio about a Daddies show/movie and their main note was
"Do they have to be dads?"
"Hmm... "
"Or like, if they are dads, they don't talk about their kids and we don't see them"
Last year I hit my highest weight at 371.
With a newborn daughter that I want to be around for, and be a good role model for I decided it was time to have a healthy relationship with food.
My goal was to get under 300 by end of year. Feel better than I have in a decade.
So
@fwong
has gotten pretty serious about pottery. So for his birthday I got him his own wheel so he can throw at home rather than always going to the studio down the street.
Okay, freddie is FLIPPING OUT at the idea that anyone, not to mention a BEEKEEPER, would EVER eat a spoonful of honey. Despite the fact that both myself and my wife do it.
Anyone here on twitter, ever just eat some honey. Straight from the jar. You know a sweet little snack.
Some directors have a "no asshole" policy on set.
I have a no "people who think the eagles are a plot hole in lord of the rings" policy.
Won't even be in the same room as them.
Heidi & I are fervently lifting up in prayer the children and families in the horrific shooting in Uvalde.
We are in close contact with local officials, but the precise details are still unfolding.
Thank you to heroic law enforcement & first responders for acting so swiftly.
Truly one of the most creatively fulfilling things I've been able to work on. Collaborative storytelling is special, and being a part of this was everything.
Anxiously waiting to start season 2.
Still can't believe I was lucky enough to go on Conan. It is a highlight of my career. He was so kind and funny, and shockingly allowed us to film a cameo for our dumb webseries during our appearance.
He was game for anything. A legend.
The biggest lie people believe is "they don't actually have billions in cash you idiot. You think they have that in their pocket, lol. It's tied up assets, and business and stuff"
It's about purchasing power. They have that money. It can be taxed and should be redistributed.
Couldn't afford to rent an ambulance for our film. So we using a miniature. Took this sprinter van and made it an ambulance for way less money and way more of my time.
Woke up at 5:30 to find our 3.5 yr old making breakfast for our cat - food on floor and a cup of water.
It's been like this all day cause "kitty likes it, don't move it."
I told my 3 year old that my warhammer figures guns were "vacuum cleaners... or you know some sort of tool."
Now she runs around the apartment, holding space marines and necrons to the ground making vacuum noises.
"Robots clean! Good job robots."
Am I a bad parent?
Finished my Ron Stampler from
@HeroForgeMinis
Had fun with the base. And that's a business card, not a cig.
And that ugly little frog is jumping out of the hat of vermin - I'm just bad at sculpting.
And that's a wrap on We're All Gonna Die.
We had an unbelievable cast and crew and
@fwong
and I can't wait to hop into post production and do our best to not mess up all the amazing work everyone did.
Freddie pointing a camera at the sun through trees, mumbling to himself
"I think I just shot one of the most interesting shots I've seen"
Man has confidence I can only aspire to.
The big problem with originalists, and adherence to the founding fathers is that
They fucking failed. Their country was dumb.
It was so dumb that it didn't even last 100 years before it had a civil war with higher mortality rates than WW1.
All cause of foundational problems.
Indie game devs dunking on dunky reminds me of the snobbery film people had for youtube.
Like if he fails, he fails. But you literally know nothing about what he knows regarding game development or anything. He is putting his foot into the door. Deal with it.
Toddler screams bloody murder. "DADDDDDD!!!!!"
I sprint into her bedroom.
"What, what's a matter?"
She's suddenly calm.
"Daddy, my finger nails are growing, they keep growing and they are getting bigger. I think we need to cut them"
Her fingernails are perfectly fine.
I know I'll never be a successful director cause my twitter banner is some erotic fan art of my dungeons and dragons podcast, not a frame from Kurosawa or a horror film nobody has ever seen.
Just realized that since it seems like we won't ever get an Anime Crimes Division Season 3... we really did end season 2 with the saddest anime death. Ha!
We already had season 3 ideas and planned Joe to come back to life. But nope.
He's dead folks.
Since the puppet shows in the streets of Rome. From Shakespeare to Succession. We've loved tragedies & dramas of the humiliation, hubris and idiocy of the idol class behind their ivory walls.
Thanks Elon, for giving us the rare front row seat in real time, you fucking clown.
The Internet listening to Taylor Swifts "Me!": this is cheesy. Low point on the album.
My 3.5 year old listening to miss Swifts masterpiece "Me!": fuck Let it Go. This is the only song that exists now. This is my entire identity. Play it again dad. Right this fucking second.
Playing boardgames in person for the first time in over a year. I was thinking of some light beer and pretzel gaming.
@ProZD
wanted to go hard.
Almost an hour just to set up.
WTF is hollywood even doing.
Go see RRR. Best action epic I've seen since... gladiator? Fucking blood opera bromance on a huge scale.
Spectacle and action is better than anything america put out the last few years.
Also hot people fight, act, and fucking sing and dance
I wrote a sci-fi road trip indie feature film script with
@mattlarnold
and we are shooting it at the end of the year.
Got into this game to make movies, and it's clear you gotta have a feature under your belt. I think the fastest way to get one is to make one yourself.
Absolutely loved the first episode!! Can’t wait for the second. I don’t know about you guys but I love to draw/color while listening. It’s not the fanciest but I whipped up a spoiler-free coloring sheet for Ep. 1! Enjoy

Having a note sessions with our incredible composer,
@MaxtonWaller
, on the first pass of the score for We're All Gonna Die.
Love working on the music. It's like another actor to direct, and draw out subtle emotional cues. Plus freddie and max are just musical geniuses.
Wasn't sure about Rings of Power, but I enjoyed the first ep.
Then the end of ep 1 with gladriel got me hooked.
And the ep 2 was just a delight and I loved all the characters. Durin + Elrond was perfect.
Just pleasantly surprised.
I'm a happy Tolkein nerd.
Dot: a mean house!
Wife: oh?
D: mean house with bugs
W:wow, bugs.
D: And a spider A BIG spider. House goes up and bugs run. Spider says hello
3yr Dot old snaps her head over to me, just minding my own business. She glares
D: Dad. Privacy. Leave please
I left the dinner table
Freddie and I are doing our first cold call to actor's agents for a script we are going to privately finance (since all the studios are too cowardly for our VISIONARY scripts)
Hmm... this will be interesting. Hope they like dumb ass action films that are too weird to get made.
There really needs to be better restrictions on trucks. This should be illegal with a normal license. Like sure, require getting a class c commercial license.
But this is just a danger to other drivers and pedestrians for no other reason than to make your dick feel bigger.
Woah. I did some quick math, and check this out.
If you don't consume works by serial abusers or sexual assaulters, there is still more good art in existence than you can consume in your entire lifetime.
