Yeah, no. I’m not trying to keep track of 15 windows when I can make named groups to actually organize the various things I always end up coming back to

Ultimately a film is what the director creates. If the writing wasn’t good it’s up to them to figure something out how to improve it. If the producers try and force changes it’s up to the director to either make them fit or convince them otherwise.

I will say, however, that even the best directors can get fucked by bad editing. I mean, how many versions of Blade Runner are there (and how many of them are actually good)?

Fondant can be good, but it takes a hell of a baker to do so. A friend of mine’s mom made my wedding cake and the fondant she made was fucking bomb as hell. I was really skeptical of the fondant until she made the test cake, and I’m disappointed every time I have anything with fondant because I know it will never live up.
