The series "DEVS" was definitely a spiritual experience, moving and intimate, very introspective, with great performances.
Kes and 28 Years Later is such a exciting idea isn’t it? Also it’s wonderful to find out that Garland’s love of dreamlike filmmaking comes in part from renting Phantasm as a kid. The post office he mentioned renting from as a kid is such a great detail.
Always respected this guy for realizing the potential of video games way before the rest of Hollywood.

I love his screen play for DMC... Shit is so funny and cool. Sadly a lot of fans of the series hate it. Which is ironic because dmc5 was clearly inspired by it.

@@josephmorales652 he wasn't the main writer on it, just a consultant but that game looks fucking wild and I recently got into the other DMC gams so I gotta try it out.
Me & my mom loved the Day Of The Triffids. She hated horror movies, but enjoyed that one. Phantasm is pure art...
a furiously intelligent writer, who frustratingly doesn't get the recognition he deserves even to this day. his projects are multi layered that often require a second introspection & observation. from 28 Days Later, Sunshine, Dredd to Civil War, that many at first glance disregard, unfortunately
as a sometimes creative writer, I felt the exact same about Anatomy of a Fall. I just sat there at the end going "someone wrote that. someone WROTE that. how?!"
Sunshine seems like a cross between Clark Ashton Smith's Phoenix and Samuel Delany's Ballad of Beta-2. I wish sci-fi authors would be credited for all their ideas that get lifted for big budget films.
the movie was inspirational how are the gun sales?
Alex rules. Shame hes retiring from directing. Thankfully still writing.

No he didn't say he's not directing again just no plans to make another movie any time soon he's more focused on writing atm
If you are ever in Vienna you need to see the 3rd man in the Burg Kino.
