David Cronenberg has a new movie coming out! Everyone should see it and make the man very wealthy already.
Great, long article about the man here. If you've ever wondered what it'd be like to insert a videocassette into your abdomen or to peel off your own ear, then you should read up (not to mention see every movie the man's made).
He came very close to directing Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy back in the 80's. Just imagine what could have been...
This quote made me love him even more : "I don't do demons. I'm an atheist, and so I have a philosophical problem with demonology and supporting the mythology of Satan, which involves God and heaven and hell and all that stuff. I'm not just a nonbeliever, I'm an antibeliever - I think it's a destructive philosophy. But the people who send this material out, all they know is that you've done some stuff that they think is supernatural, which is actually not something I do either. I was asked to do 'Dark Water,' and it was a nice script, but the reason I didn't want to do it was the ghost thing. The movie posits that ghosts do exist. That suggests that there is some kind of afterlife. I'm philosophically opposed to that view."

Okay, seriously. I knew your taste was ATROCIOUS. But really...Cronenberg? Filthy. Have you never seen one of his movies? Like Crash? Or Existenz? Can you possibly say that either of these movies are even worthy of showing in an airplane on a red eye? I imagine that an ailing balding one-handed castrated monkey could better direct a movie than Cronenberg on his best day. Hahahaha.
You suck.
