Movies like that aren't about the visual effects and explosions. They're human stories about family, about life, about death.
Gaslight Anthem's thing is its power. It's just like boom and explosions and loud, and play with everything you got.
Much like every artist or every creator, I got into comics as a kid, and the most important thing was the 'bang zoom' of it. As many explosions as possible.
The Internet doesn't like you to learn too much about explosives.
We've gotten quite creative with our use of explosives... It's almost like an art form, rather than just blowing crap up.
It was called the Reclaim Guide. It was just a general protest guide that went over security culture and stuff like that. A small portion of that guide dealt with explosives information.
I'm a big believer in the transformative, exponential power of art, like a reverse pyramid scheme.
There is no intrinsic reason African countries should be importing, rather than exporting, basic staples like rice or higher value products like frozen chicken, cooking oil, or instant noodles.
Exporting firms are more productive and pay higher wages than their domestically focused counterparts, especially in places like Sub-Saharan Africa. If firms manage to thrive in world markets, they tend to increase their productivity even more.
If high-wage, high-cost nations like Germany and Japan can compete on exports, California can.
I like the idea of infiltrating an area that is not really exposed to me or my work.
I use voiceover just like I use dialogue. There's a way to give out information or give out insight to the character or give out their worldview, and maybe you have to slip in exposition, but it's all about how you write it.
He who is ashamed would like to force the world not to look at him, not to notice his exposure. He would like to destroy the eyes of the world.
Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
You could imagine a language exactly like English except it doesn't have connectives like 'and' that allow you to make longer expressions. An infant learning truncated English would have no idea about this: They would just pick it up as they would standard English.
When I was a boy, I was taught never to use insulting expressions like, 'I've been gypped,' or, 'He welshed on the deal.'
Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence.
When she had passed, it seemed like the ceasing of exquisite music.
Some of our most exquisite murders have been domestic, performed with tenderness in simple, homey places like the kitchen table.
Don't let anyone tell you what you ought to like... Some wines that some experts think are absolutely exquisite don't appeal to me at all.
