I am sorry but who greenlighted “Pan”? “Abominable Bride”?

The Steve Jobs script? The Man from Uncle Reboot? The Terminator 2 Script? Oh. And my favorite face palm of the year: Tomorrowland?

I am sorry but (a) characters, (b) their experiences, and not (c) your woo woo.

And I am sorry but if you haven’t got storyboards ala-hitchock and it isn’t fucking obvious, then you don’t do it. It’s just wishful thinking or gambling. Or really, it’s a bunch of losers free riding on money so that they can get enough credentials to work on something that isn’t total shit – or at least have fun and get laid during the shoot.

Illustrated novels and comic books work well because they’re storyboards already.

One of the ways to not get (fucked) is to take the best ten storyboard sequences you can find and put them on your wall (this works with all art not just film). This way anything you look at that isn’t great will look like shit.

The other way is to spend more on experienced actors than on sets and destinations.

I’m just bitching. But you know, it’s like air pollution sometimes. You choke on the bad art.
