Some thoughts on your latest episode, gentlemen:
Yeah, TRUE DETECTIVE boasts the type of writing that makes me want to give up the game as there is no way…even if I lived to be 200 that I could write as well as Nic Pizzolatto. The guy is brilliant. And I think that Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey have both done the best acting I have ever seen them do and considering their sepearate bodies of work, that’s saying a lot.
Yeah, I liked the movie version of LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN more than the comic, too.
Here’s a link to my review of SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED. Enjoy.

And I agree; you wanna make a WONDER WOMAN movie, just go listen to the TV show’s theme song. Everything you need to know about her is right there.
And thanks for saying nice things about DILLON AND THE LAST RAIL TO KHUSRA. I don’t know if it’s the best thing I’ve ever written but I have to admit I’m delighted by the reception it’s been getting. Everybody seems to like it a lot.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting, DF, truth be told, your podcast Better in the Dark is the main thrust of my being brave enough to give this a try in the first place, so my hat is off to you, man.
I agree on all your points, and have Safety Not Guaranteed in my Netflix queue, so I’ll read the review after I’ve seen it.
Thanks again, man!
