I don't really care for or that much about Chat Roulette. I think the phenomenon of it and like the first wow factor which was so absolutely insane about Chat Roulette. Certainly that's what inspired me to make that movie but I think that's true for everyone that used Chat Roulette which is why it was such an explosion. Now it's just kind of disappeared. You don't hear much about it anymore.

Troubleshooting a wiring problem is a soul-killing experience.

I don't know of a more noble, a bigger deal as a filmmaker than to be a YouTube filmmaker.
