In Hollywood, you just kind of fail upwards. - Kevin Smith

Even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I’m forever changed because of who you are, and what you’ve meant to me.

Don’t be afraid to do weird stuff, so long as you do it cheaply and cover everyone’s bets. Be bold. Be stupid, if you have to: so long as you don’t hurt anybody, what’s it matter how dopey your dream is? If I hadn’t made TUSK? If I’d let it die as a podcast? I wouldn’t have three other movies I’m now making within the span of a year. Some folks will try to shame you for trying something outside the norm; the only shame is in not trying to accomplish your dreams.

lifes too $hort kids; do the shit that makes you happy!
