i wonder if there is more to it than him takin umbrage @ a SUPER oblique & encrypted fixfic in the form of a happier endin for LEON | THE PROFESSIONAL ,

or if he also thinks that he is the only one allowed to reinterpret the story of the maid of orleans

& is also pissed off that nobody appreciates his sublime artistic endeavors  eg the horrible reviews that THE MESSENGER got when it came out

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/messenger_the_story_of_joan_of_arc/

& also how his recent attempted biopic of aung san suu kyi THE LADY was panned as a failure as biography DESPITE michelle yeohs acting being praised GOOD ACTING NOT ENF TO SALVAGE BAD DIRECTING is the eternal lesson

but when i see that he – just like ridley scott , just like michael bay – made a weird “arty” low budget little crime flick w a big name cast

, that turned out to be awful & incomprehensible AND like scotts to have a major point of overlap w NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN but also to have so many points of congruence w other films , visually & in terms of degrees-of-separation via casting , & also via name magicsymbolism

that all are in some way connected w del toro films

that it is no longer a question to me if the PROMETHEUS “bandage underwear / running down the hall scn” was a deliberate or an accidental resemblance to 5TH ELEMENT also not a question if it was a swipe or an homage

nope

just like scott homaged BAYFORMERS in the yellow sports car scn in COUNSELOR

he homaged besson in PROMETHEUS

bc politics makes strange bedfellows but so i guess does bein scorned by critics & also havin yr own old fanbase wonder wth happened to yr talent & where is the bay / scott / besson who made the rock=&-armageddon / alien-&-blade runner / leon-&-element ??

so hey we can all join in self referential footshootin stupidity

which is also supposed to be a big NYAH BLARGH ARGH WE HATES YOU 4EVA ! ! ! to their rivals , all these upstart crew & actors who think they know how to make movies GRARGHSNARGRHL WE WILL SHOW YOU by makin a movie so terrible that nobody understands how we did it

wait

maybe we didnt think this plan thru

but yeah THE FAMILY has enf bits & pieces that only make sense if seen as slivers fittin into a goblins mirror reflection of PACIFIC RIM as a magic mirror reflection of , in this case esp , scotts ROBIN HOOD which was ripping off BLADE 2 in a huge way along w HELLBOY 2

but also the overall superheroes themes of all del toro movies

& yes THE DEGREES OF SEAN BEAN bc it is def a slam @ RONIN which hah yeah thatll ttly show everyone involved in PR

& yes the nastiness in LUCY is also stuffs that makes sense if yr lookin at it as , like TF4 , a backatcha to PR

& YES THERE BE ALREADY SALVOS FIRED @ BOTH DEL TORO & KENNETH BRANAGH IN SCOTTS EXODUS PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS

IF I CAN GET A PICSPAM POST TOG WO MY COMPUTER CRASHING YET AGN I WILL SET IT OUT PLAINLY

but im not sure what that will prove either

otoh IT WILL CERTAINLY PROVIDE RAW MATERIAL FOR THE ALCHEMICAL RETORTS & FURNACES OF “CRIMSON PEAK” & PR2

& who knows what else

bc i just discovered there is a MODERN VERSION OF CYMBELINE (x) COMIN OUT as a small art film by michael almereyda WHICH HAS BESSONS EXWIFE JOVOVICH and& PAIN & GAINs ED HARRIS and 50 SHADES DAKOTA JOHNSON as the princess AND BAYFORMERS 1-3 JOHN LEGUIZAMO and also ETHAN HAWKE WHO WAS RECENTLY STARBUCK TO WILLIAM HURTS AHAB – & WILLIAM HURT HAD A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN SCOTTS ROBIN HOOD , MORE ON THAT LATER – oh & yes , was in ANTOINE FUQUAS TRAINING DAY & IVE TALKED ABT THE UNIVERSAL FIASCO W TAKIN AWAY AMERICAN GANGSTER FROM FUQUA & GIVIN IT TO RIDLEY SCOTT TO MAKE IT A CROWE GARY STU VEHICLE – in which you may be forgiven for forgetting that a certain british actor of increasing renown had a bit part as another gangster but yes THERE IS AN IDRIS ELBA CONNECTION TOO – and finally there is the STAR TREK / REBOOT CONNECTION bc ANTON YELCHIN AKA CHEKOV IN NUTREK is in it

& yes there was ANOTHER jab @ traditional trek fandom in PAIN & GAIN to go along w the travestyin of WRATH OF KHAN in BAYFORMERS 3

bc bay cast TONY SHALOUB AKA FRED KWAN FROM GALAXY QUEST as the real-life-victim-made-unlikeable-“deserved-it” of the based-on-a-true-crime-case story SO YEAH there is so much of a huge fuckyou @ their own fans by these great big babies but also , or primarily , idk which & not sure they know which , @ their perceived rivals

which yeah ok sure theyre makin gobs of money on these studio-supported mega projects & gettin carte blanche to make their ugly little id vanity projects that barely break even if that & get trashed on RT

but i guess its just so much salt in their eyes that upstarts get praised by critics & happy fanbases alike

so they gotta act out EVEN IF IT MEANS AN ENDLESS STRING OF OWN GOALS & PYRRHIC VICTORIES

meanwhile

the shakespeare / stage / series tv community is NOT HAPPY w the annointed princes of hollywood

& they are showing it @ every turn

accordin to imdb almereyda has cast VONDIE CURTIS HALL AS THE ROMAN GENERAL & ENVOY TO BRITAIN in his new movie

which isnt just diverse casting YES WE BITE OUR THUMB @ WHEDONS WHITEWASHING but also a connex to 1 . THE SOPRANOS aka take that besson ! ! & to ER yes that is both a BATMAN and a coen brothers shoutout

they are playin the great game

& i am wondering like hell what stanley tucci is gonna show up in after he finishes HUNGER GAMES series now … .

(im sure it seemed like a good idea @ the time , when bay cast OMFG ROBIN GOODFELLOW AKA PUCK as his heel-face-turn villain as a TAKE THAT to captain america fans - these sort of things always do , which is why yr supposed to keep a five-yr-old child on retainer to look em over first ! ! )

I noticed that too! I was asdfghjkl

Then I debated whether to include it when I was re-designing Crosshairs, but I decided to leave it out. He’s already badass enough.
