Scarlett Johansson, Directorial Debut??? Wait, WTF?


Is it really a big deal that Scarlett Johansson is directing some short film, her "directorial debut"? I guess so because it's in all the papers again today. Here's the thing, directors don't even really do anything. Some do, the really good ones do, but way more just let the DP and the producer do all the heavy lifting. Actors are idiots. Just because you're around something a lot doesn't mean you know how to do it. I've played plenty of video games, that doesn't make me a video game programmer. I could be a great airplane mechanic but I promise you, If I get behind the stick, we're goin' the fuck down. Look at her for Christ's sake. She's wearing those stupid shades and hat like a director from the 40’s. I'm amazed she isn't yelling into a big megaphone at some actors in blackface for one of them to sit on a tiny cactus then run in circles for two minutes.
