    Ha ha April Fool. You've actually been having a bizarre dream and it is in fact 1996 right now. We are all going to go watch the new Coen Brothers movie 'Fargo' later. I will call you on your phone that is attached to a wall and can't make you insane later.

    I was skeptical the new "custom AI movies" thing was going to work, but I tried it last night and there, on screen, was Spiderman banging my wife. Later we watched a Tom Cruise film and he too banged my wife. And when we put on an old Marx Brothers movie, all of them were going to town, on my wife

    I got my daughter to watch the Blues Brothers with me. She loves it. 😊 Fun Fact: It was the first R-rated film I ever saw and being from South Holland, I saw it in Calumet City. They had the famous Blues Brothers car parked outside the theater the day I saw it. THE most Chicago movie ever.

    Finally, as an aside, I'd note that film and TV already do this better - Band of Brothers spares no punches. If video games want to be taken seriously as an art form, they need to follow suit - they need to have the courage to deliver the facts, unvarnished.

    Such a fun film to produce, with a truly great cast & crew. It was thanks to the late, great Jim Jacks that we were able to get the film made. He fought for our little film and so many others, including films by the Coen Brothers, Kevin Smith and Richard Linklater.
