    Is Where’d You Go, Bernadette worth seeing this weekend?

    I remember when my mom told me about Boyhood, I think it was a few years before the movie was set to release. I’m about a month younger than Ellar, I was so eager to see that film. Most anticipated movie for almost 4 years lol and the film absolutely blew me away.

    this video could have been 40 minutes and covered more of his films and i would have watched, I think he’s one of the most interesting filmmakers working today and i love hearing about his process

    He reminds me a lot of David Foster Wallace. The way he speaks and even his look, the only thing missing is a bandana.

    One of my favorite directors! The Before sunsrise/sunset/midnight trilogy is a masterpiece study of relationships and it has affected me deeply. Linklater is a true artist.

    School of Rock is the movie that turned the bored, interested-in-nothing 16y/o who only listened to Hip Hop and other popular music into the biggest Led Zeppelin fan. And the funny thing is Led Zeppelin isn’t even featured in that movie that much, but School of Rock opened the door to a whole new world of music for me. I also credit this movie with teaching me to keep an open mind. I was so snobby as a teenager. Anything I didn’t already like was somehow ‘bad’ to me and School of Rock slapped that attitude out of my face with its energy and enthusiasm and love for music. It changed me for the better. I can’t name many films that have done that for me.

    What about the bus driver in Beavis and Butthead do America?

    I don’t object to this video being 15 minutes long as much as I object to it not being an hour and 15 minutes long. And you didn’t ask him about EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!! or IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO LEARN TO PLOW BY READING BOOKS?! Dadgummit, Vanity Fair, get a film geek to program these interviews!
