I was drunk...
So...dude. Man....I don't know how to say this. So, you know Neill, you're my main dude. Like, main dude. But sometimes I feel like this is a one sided relationship. I feel like you're just going through the motions. Not always, but sometimes, and during one of those weak moments I met Guillermo del Toro.
He's a very irresistible man, he flattered me, and...I...I worked with him. But only a little bit, and it meant nothing. Well, not nothing, I mean it was super cool and I met a bunch of really great guys. Wonderful people and insanely talented. Guillermo was also crazy talented and amazingly busy, I have no idea how he does it all. Super fun too, fun guy to work with. But, again, it was a moment of weakness. I feel like the ugliest Diane Lane in the world.
I hate for you to find out this way, but it's in the Hollywood gossip mags now. Total Film posted some of my pictures, with my name attached. I figured it would get to you eventually, and I preferred you heard it from me.
So hopefully you'll find it in your heart to forgive me. I'm not really like this, it's only happened once, and I've learned from it.
Pacific Rim is going to be pretty fucking awesome though.

Maggot King
Neill...Neill...Neill. Dude, where's my trailer. Where's my gawddamned Elysium trailer. I wants it!
I saw the Pacific Rim trailer, and it looks fucking fantastic! I bet a lot of good looking people made that film, or at least did the art for it. Like golden gods, using their talents to produce art for the masses (that means they used their wang doodles to paint with). My one issue is all these extremely intelligent Youtube kids saying things like 'Why robots? Why not giant missles?'.
Anyway, quick sketch. It's the Maggot King. Sounds very fantasy right? All that fantasy crap is the same, not that I'm anti fantasy. I worked on a fantasy game for over 8 years. Loved it. But everything is named shit like this. The Lich King. Lord of Night. He who Seeks. Legolas. Tommy Two Poops. Fuck it. they all want to be Lord of the Rings. All of them. Not awful, but dammit, LotR was new when it came out (shut up Tolkien purist and your based on Norse Myths horseshit)!
I once mentioned having our games dwarves (since, you know, we HAD to have them) live in trees and be almost like burly primates. Like Tarzan gorilla's, but smarter. Frazetta the shit out of them. You might have though I had asked to stab an old lady the way people in that meeting responded. "Dwarves don't live in trees! They mine...IN THE GROUND!"
It's like people love to make rules for shit that needs no rules. It's called FANTASY for a reason.
So if mankind makes giant robots to battle giant monsters, fuck all I don't care if a giant missle makes more sense, the robot's going to be way fucking more fun! God bless GDT!
Now give me my Elysium trailer.
OH FUCK! Premiere the Elysium trailer on this blog! That will surprise the shit out of everyone!!!
