Spirit Press: Screen Daily

Are you sick of these yet? Here's an article on Screen Daily about, er, "The VFX genius behind The Spirit."

As for himself, meanwhile, Maschwitz, who is also an experienced commercials director, is developing his own screenplays and hoping for the chance to direct a feature. Making his second-unit directing debut on The Spirit, he enthuses, "was about as much fun as one can have within the confines of the law".

(forgot to mention....cool article. lots of good press for you and Miss Hannigan's coming out of The Spirit. Way to go.)

ooh, Stu to direct a feature sounds great! Any more hints if something is planned?

Not to much. Love them. Bring em on!

I was actually thinking of the same thing Stu.

How are you going to handle the onslaught of attention as your notoriety rises? As more and more people get to know you and want a piece of you?

I hope you can maintain a decent quality of life with a fair amount of privacy as it were.

On the plus side you live and work here and nobody really bothers to much.

There are people in the business just walking around all the time so it's not that big of a thing.

Hopefully you can find a balance between wild popularity and hometown blogging and just keeping it down to earth with your friends, family, and neighbors big and small....

Great Work!

Can I just say that the people that read this blog are the freaking best? Seriously. If I was Oprah I'd be like, look under your seats. Car keys. Woooooooo!

Thanks for the imaginary beemer! Best of luck. Hail to the rebel!

Hi Oprah, can you give me a drivers license to match my new car then?

Anyway - a while ago I was slightly skeptic on whether The Spirit would offer something new beyond Sin City, but I'm starting to see that it does. In Holland we'll have to wait until end of februari to see it though.

Stu

I could use a new pick-up / car, should I start to look under my seat?

Laurence.
