Well, Sir Paul's getting up in years you know.  He's got to save for retirement and all that...


He can't afford to retire now, he's got a new baby and a trophy wife to pay for.

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

Listening to the commentary track on the "Royal Tenenbaums" DVD, Wes Anderson said that he had wanted to include the Beatles rendition of "Hey Jude" in the film but Sir Paul refused.  So they had Mark Mothersbaugh record a version, which was VERY good and really made the scene.

Oh god, Jough, you really shouldn't get into Wes Anderson's soundtracks when I'm around... I have this unfortunate propensity to turn into a slavering geek when he's mentioned, and the soundtracks are among the best parts of his films.

I mentioned it just for you.

I consider Anderson to be one of the best filmmakers of his generation, right up there with the other Anderson, Paul Thomas Anderson, David Fincher, Neil LaBute, David O. Russell, Atom Egoyan, Todd Solandz, Quentin Tarantino, Roger Avary, Steven Soderbergh, Spike Jonze, Tom Tykver, Sophia Coppola, Sam Mendes, Richard Linklater, Alex Proyas, Alexander Payne, Guy Ritchie, Peter Jackson, Robert Rodriquez, Christopher Nolan, Baz Luhrmann, Darren Aronofsky, Bryan Singer, etc.

Did I leave out any talented young auteurs?

Ah yes.

And Michael Bay.  The giant.

Damn Jough. Erm, perfect list. I agree with al of them.
Oh but you missed off some of the other older crowd, like I'd put Gilliam on there, and Hiyao Miyazaki, and Shinichiro Watanabe.
