All this badmouthing that's been going on is complete nonsense!
Kev, every now and then a "no comment" would do just fine.
I know that PT has said the same when asked about your negative comments towards him & his flick.
His comments about Fincher in "Rolling Stone" we're indeed out of line, and viscious, and I would address him the same on those as well.
You guys are both young enough and talented enough to do what you each do best. And that's making movies.
And sure everyone's entitled to their opinons, but being in the spotlight as the both of you are, it ultimately reflects back on you and your films.
It's almost watching two kids in a sandbox throwing sand in each others faces until the other is just smart enough to realize it's not worth it and move on to the swing set.
Which leads me to wonder what the "vibe" will be like when you two guys are in the room together for the uopcoming FADE-IN writer's conference in LA next month?
So let's all just be mature professionals here, and stop bad mouthing each other and get back to what really counts... and that's making movies!
And for the record, I've meet you both and deeply respect each others works, that's why I find this whole thing non-sensical.
Best to you in your future endeavors Kevin.
Sincerely,
