It is rare that a press release gets me to comment on it anymore. Mostly because after seven years of this gig everyone knows I'm going to shit on whatever I talk about. It's all jokes people, sure, some are really mean jokes, but I don't think we have to be positive about every damn thing every created. Do you like every painting and picture you've ever seen?

That's right, plot twist motherfuckers, I'm excited as fuck for this film!!!
