Kevin, hear me out! you've created a legacy with the askewniverse films. Think of it as a comic book universe. What would it be like if Marvel or DC wanted to just stop making super heor comics, and start making comics like Mary Worth, all serious and shit. Now there's nothing wrong with you making serious films, but you don't have to sacrifice anyhting to do it.
Your entire fan base is built on these films. I think this is why you want to stop making such films. You want to be recognized as a serious director, but people love your for these films, you can't let them down! Don't just cop out and stop making askew films forever, you can't sell out like that!
But if you're going to stop making askew movies, i have a good idea for the last one. take a Shakespearian comedy, say, The Taming of the Shrew, and re-do it with askew characters! Probably a bad idea, just something to get your brain going. Please don't let the people down!
A Loyal Fan
