Jim Jarmusch's Golden Rules of Filmmaking
karenabad: Rule #1: There are no rules. There are as many ways to make a film as there are potential filmmakers. It’s an open form. Anyway, I would personally never presume to tell anyone else what to do or how to do anything. To me that’s like telling someone else what their religious beliefs should be. Fuck that. That’s against my personal philosophy—more of a code than a set...

Thank you Apple
Since I blasted Apple on the iPhone 3.1 upgrade sloppiness, it’s only fair that I applaud them when they do something well…and in this case it’s something extremely important to me.

TV Worth Watching

490 things petermartin likes (as of 11/4/09) →
All the posts that I’ve “liked” on Tumblr. Many inspirational, some fascinating, some marked “to find later”, and some that just made me smile. I think I’m going to redesign my Tumblr soon and incorporate the “likes” feature on my main design, as I easily get twice as much pleasure from the content I’m reading on here as the content I produce...
