: think about it, if you speant your whole life creating a style of film, wouldn't you think it was cool that somewhere, someone was studying you in an english class, the same english class in which Shakespeare, Byron, Toni Morrison, J.D. Salinger, Maya Angelou, Alfred Hitchcock, Tom Stoppard, Oscar Wilde, among other greats who a puny-minded, pasty faced, limp dick pissant like yourself probably has never heard of.
Listen cocksmoker, dropping names of authors (especially piss-poor ones like Byron and Angelou)is a sure sign of bullshit intellect. So what if you've read Beloved, The Catcher in the Rye, or some horseshit from the Harlem Renaissance? It doesn't make you any smarter. Quit being such a pretentious little bitch and get to work on your final paper at your "liberal school" that you are so god damned proud of.
If you want a hint about successful screenplays, don't try to rip off somebody's style. Just because they are successful doesn't mean you will be as well. Be original and drop the drooling fanboy gig. Have you ever seen a tribute band with a platinum album? Face it, come original or be a nobody.
