Detlef Sping:

Queenie:
Well we decided that he would have the novel and I would have the screenplay. Though they both grew from an idea we had together it seemed fair enough to me. And given the copyright situation, I shouldn't have to pay him to license the rights - in fact, it might be the other way around. I dunno. Need lawyers to sort it out.

Queenie:
And why would I want to do that??

Detlef Sping:
Tell him Detlef sent you.

Queenie:
Sidney is very exciting about seeing Robyn Hitchcock in concert. I told her I'd take her when she's seven.

Detlef Sping:
Make a great film like 'Roger and me'.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:09:34 pm)

Queenie:
I like the version called "Rogering Me" better.

Detlef Sping:
Yes you need to be at least 7 to get the jokes.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:11:13 pm)

Detlef Sping:
yikes.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:11:34 pm)

Queenie:
You need to be at least seven to sit in one spot for so long.

Detlef Sping:
Are we talking about the same Roger Moore?
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:13:49 pm)

Queenie:
I read a book by John Irving about the writing and making of "The Cider House Rules". I really love John Irving's books. I wish I hadn't read this one. He is one arrogant fuck. I would have liked to have not known that.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:13:59 pm)

Detlef Sping:
God I hope not.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:14:16 pm)

Queenie:
He thinks novelists are just kings of the fucking world. He thinks screenwriters don't use "language", he says screenwriter's can't control "pace". Utter bullshit. But goes a long way towards explaining why "Cider House Rules" the movie sucked so bad.

Detlef Sping:
Yes and that Ron Howard is a little dictator.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:16:35 pm)

Detlef Sping:
His brother Clint is the talented one.

Heruka:
The Fuhrer Opie will see you now.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:18:31 pm)

Detlef Sping:
It just doesn't get better than Gentle Ben.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:19:45 pm)

Queenie:
The Fuhrer Opie... ha ha!
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:20:51 pm)

Detlef Sping:
Except for perhaps that crackhead Grizzly Adams.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:20:56 pm)

Detlef Sping:
The sidewalks await. Auf!
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:23:15 pm)

Queenie:
John Irving claimed that in ten years, he'd only seen two movies in the theater, and only to disprove the idea that they were better than the books they were adapted from. How can you expect someone who obviously doesn't care for movies much to write one?
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:23:43 pm)

Heruka:
If it helps, I can't stand many movies at all. They're terrible piles of nothing. The only ones that win awards are nothing more than left wing propaganda flicks. Perhaps making one from a different perspective will be a breath of fresh air.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:27:45 pm)

Queenie:
My new writing project will be very John Irving inspired. His novels... not his shitty assed screenplays.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:28:03 pm)

Queenie:
What would you like to see a movie about H?
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:28:31 pm)

Queenie:
I am also listening to a Stephen King book on writing that I bought on CD to listen to when I'm exercising. I got it because he reads it himself. He comes off as a WAY more humble and likeable guy than Irving.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:29:23 pm)

Heruka:
History. I like movies based on history. Worse than the movies, there are the actors. They seem to be, as a general rule, extremely ignorant people. Have you ever heard Whoopi Goldberg? She must have like a 3rd grade education. I just hate actors in general. Most anyway. These fuckers make 20 million a flick, then they complain that the American people aren't doing enough to help the poor. I'll stop there....
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:34:40 pm)

Heruka:
Any historical flick that has to do woth some English dying. I love that stuff. I love it when English people die.

Queenie:
Hollywood is a place of gross excess. I agree with you on that. When I heard that Marlon Brando got like 7 million dollars for four day's work on Scary movie 2 I just about barfed.

Queenie:
"You've been telling me you're a genius since you were seventeen. In all the years I've known you, I still don't know what you mean". One could write an entire movie around this lyric. By golly I think I will.

Cushca:
Dickless piece of shit.
(Mon Jul 9, 2001 - 1:38:36 pm)

Queenie:
Who?

Chewing Wax:
I already have two movies and a comic book series out for "the weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned".
