Spring Party, woo!
RANT.
IF YOUR LAST MOVIE MADE $35 MILLION AND YOU HAVE JIM PARSONS, DONALD FAZON AND ZACK BRAFF ATTACHED TO YOUR SCRIPT, YOU SHOULDN’T GO PANHANDLING FOR MONEY. SHOEHORNING IN A “NERDY” SUBPLOT TOTALLY PLAYS TO AUDIENCES NOWADAYS, AND INVOLVING CHRIS HARDWICK ONLY INCREASES THE PROFILE OF YOUR PROJECT. EVERY MOVIE HAS COMPROMISES, EVEN GARDEN STATE. YOUR NEW MOVIE WILL HAVE THEM TOO, EVEN WITHOUT A MAJOR STUDIO OR CORPORATE INVESTOR. THIS MOVIE TOTALLY SOUNDS LIKE A PIECE OF CRAP THAT WILL MAKE MONEY- SO PLEASE SHOW ME THE DECENCY TO INVEST IN IT PROPERLY, WHERE I WILL SEE A RETURN, NOT GET AN AUTOGRAPHED TCHOTCHKE.
