One of the best things about this gig is the opportunity to speak with filmmakers whose work I admire and enjoy. Folks like Guillermo Del Toro, Terry Gilliam, Nick Park and now Edgar Wright, who directed the brilliant comedies Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz and is currently awaiting the release of his latest opus, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, based on the comic book of the same name. The movie has its coming out party at Comic-Con in San Diego this weekend and goes into general release on August 13. You can read all about the movie and its director in my just-published feature story over at Film Journal.
