There's so much to be said about him. He was a brilliant writer and orator - I watched him carefully craft a brilliant speech for the NAACP. His dedication to his art was absolute. His love for his culture endless. His thirst for knowledge unquenchable. We lost a great man.

I saw the movie with John Singleton. We were elbowing each other the whole film. We loved it so much. So happy for our friend Peter Ramsey who did storyboards for us before he ascended to his rightful place as a legend.
Do you ever just think about what a miracle Into The Spider-Verse is? How it combines absolutely brilliant, funny, heartfelt, character-based storytelling with the most visually innovative animation we've seen in a studio film for ages?

A lot of people won’t realize the depth of this tragedy for a while - or ever. But this was what we needed. The best person for the job to vanquish Trump and get our country on track. Too much focus on disinformation and polls instead of what’s right for America.

Agree, not only are liberal arts underrated, focusing on STEM to the point of folks denigrating literature, history, sociology, etc has created too many wealthy technocrats with no understanding how society works best or even basic empathy for others. Now fascism is on the rise.
They aren’t ridiculous any more. I said this years ago and I’ll say it again, in an AI world, being trained in those liberal arts can be very valuable.

The three movies that inspired House Party were Animal House, Risky Business and American Graffiti.
American Graffiti is on Netflix. Perfection. It's so irreverent, its hard to believe George Lucas wrote and directed it. It's so different than any of his other films. Great double feature with Boyz N The Hood. John always told me it was an influence on him.
