Here's some space opera for you!   Perry Rhodan looks like he just wants to know where the space-bar is so he can have a space-beer and forget about work for a while.

I worked in the animation industry, and yeah, pretty much every company we got contract work from was looking for any excuse to not pay us, while simultaneously looking for any reason to levy fines against us. "We wanted this work submitted by 10am Tuesday! The work just came in and it's now 10:05am, that'll be a $10,000 penalty charge."

First thing I did, googled "Derek" thinking it was him, but when I saw that Derek looked nothing alike I was like "Huh, guess it's not from that show". BTW, you're right, thanks much

Yeah, I always forget he's no the main character. And yeah, I know he doesn't look like that cause, well, he doesn't look like that normally.

Well uh this is Spike Lee's response to the that poster situation and his response is basically "I don't care it's not my problem" https://twitter.com/SpikeLee/status/406084275969085440 quote:I Never Heard Of This Guy Juan Luis Garcia,If He Has A Beef It's Not With Me.I Did Not Hire Him,Do Not Know Him.Cheap Trick Writing To Me.YO

Stare-Out posted:Well I'll be, Spike Lee is a douche. At one point he was going to sue "Spike TV" for obvious reasons, so this isn't a surprise. What makes it surprising is Spike's non-reaction. He's not outright saying, "I know who did the posters, this guy is lying" but more, "I don't know what he's talking about so... not my problem." There's of course a chance he could be lying for promotional purposes, but if that comes out he would be blacklisted indefinitely, so for now I'm sticking with his story.

God. And Do The Right Thing was one of my favorite movies. Kind of undermines the premise when the hero who wasn't afraid to start a goddamn riot now just brushes off a dude who comes to him with a problem with something of his.

Guess this is one of those times where you'll have to separate the art and the man. Although considering how political Spike's flicks (and that one in particular) are, I can understand why that would be hard.

Although considering how political Spike's flicks (and that one in particular) are, I can understand why that would be hard. It's probably more that Lee has forgotten his roots. He's been separated from nearly 25 years from the last time he's really struggled to make something. That's a long enough time to become insulated from the realities of starting off in the business he's in. He's no longer the provocateur indie filmmaker, he's now the Man. Maybe Spike Lee needs to stop watching Knicks games from courtside and go sit in the nosebleeds once in awhile.

Lee's twitter is full of people calling him out in mostly constructive and reasonable ways. Hopefully he gets the message, though I wouldn't be surprised if he just doubles down and makes it worse.

I've stood by Lee through some of his missteps, but I think this is the final straw, because the guy should know better. I'll hope that Lee's perceived enemies (like Tarantino and Eastwood) will play the bigger men and hire the guy to do something.

That's the most charitable scenario I can think of.
