Didn't he write a comic about Harry potter being the antichrist and porn of classic female literary characters?

>>81872546
I mean, they're not wrong. pegg can go suck a fat one, though, hypocrite.

>>81872916
So, capeshit personified?

Some of them have valid points, but I mean, just about every art form is a fucking capitalist conspiracy.

Pegg is no better, he probably gets a big fat check for every star trek he is in, but you don't see him ripping them up.

Cronenberg hit the nail on the head. Capeshit can be an art, but right now it isn't.

Pegg

>SW movies are for children but they don't want to admit it. There's a small group of fans that do not like comic sidekicks. They want the films to be tough like The Terminator and they get very upset and opinionated about anything that has anything to do with being childlike
Lucas

>SW created the big-budget comic book mentality, it ate the heart and the soul of Hollywood
Schrader

>A 12yo boy told me proudly that he had seen SW over a 100 times? I said 'could you promise never to see it again?' He burst into tears. I just hope the lad, now in his 30s, isn't living in a fantasy world of secondhand childish banalities
Guinness

>I don't think they are making them an elevated art form, I think it's still just Batman running around in a stupid cape. It's for kids, it's adolescent in its core
Cronenberg

>I don't want to see or make films about super heroes that fly around in spandex and a cape solving the problems of the world. I think it's fine for children, children of all ages by the way, but it's not for me
Friedkin

>They have been poison, this cultural genocide, Because the audience is so overexposed to plot and explosions and shit that doesn’t mean nothing about the experience of being human
Iñárritu

>Spandex must cost a lot. I look at them and scratch my head. I’m really baffled by it
Gibson

>Superman makes me vomit, Batman and all of that. That whole empire, this religion. It is so important that superheroes suffer... I don't give a damn, I shit on the United States

They aren't talking to you people. You're already a spent cache. You can't do anything or know anything that effects others or creates change. You human ballast.
