You Rarely Get A Tentpole

'harry Potter' Created A Generation Of Readers In An Era When Kids Could Have Disappeared Into The Depths Of The Internet. That's No Small Feat. Every Book Series Owes J.k. Rowling A Debt Of Gratitude.

Dr. Strangelove' Was And Is One Of My Favorite Movies Ever, And I Just Can't Believe They Actually Blew Up The World After That.

You Have To Listen To The Movie While You're Making It. I Think That's Important.

There Is No Right Way To Live. You Preclude A Lot Of Life By Trying To Conform To That Kind Of Ideal Or Stereotype. And It's A Natural Inclination In A World Where It's So Complex And So Occasionally Valueless, Morally Bankrupt, And Chaotic That We Want To Reach Back To Something In Our Past.

Really, Each Era Has Its Own False Nostalgia. We All Put A Picket Fence Up Around Something. For My Generation It Was The '50s, And For Other Generations It Will Be Something Else. Change Is Scary For Everyone, As Is Complexity, Contradiction, And An Uncertain Future.
