Brief interview with Transformers 2 screenwriters about Michael Bay's Jar-jar Binks moments (creating two Autobots to resemble characters that could have come out of blackface minstrel shows from racist entertainment from a few decades ago) on the robots & war movie part 2, at Film School Rejects . Other than that weird distraction ( Mudflap & Skids ), pretty good robots & war movie - saw it today. I think they can also do without a lot of the regular humans interacting with other regular humans parts also - since the creators of the movie are just stringing stock & stereotypical situations together to give the non-military humans something important to do. They should just make the Duhamel character the main human focus, let the storyline about the kids in love go. Still remember the cartoons as being better - overall stories wise.

At that time I was in high school in Maryland & wondering about what kind of work/career I should go after - a pursuit for life type of thing. I saw Right Thing on video - good movie, had some issues with it - but most importantly I realized that it was a movie made by a "regular" person - an outsider to Hollywood, a type of filmmaker called an independent filmmaker. Lee's success with Right Thing made me believe that it was possible for me to make movies. So, 20 years later, here I am, sitting not too far away from where Right Thing was shot - far from Maryland in exciting New York City, & having made 3 indie features & working on a fourth one, & writing in an indie film blog.
