“Fun can be sad. It often is. I like when the objects, the scenery, and protagonists fight together. The derision, irony, unfortunate associations, absurdity and sometimes subversion of staged and un-staged situations. A balance of intentional and unintentional is a good place to look for fun. Fun is probably the most valuable thing we can have in this life. Along with sex.”
