    [edit]: NOT saying Ned doesn’t seem smart, or that Chemistry is a bad subject, I’m just shocked. Like if you picture a Chem major that goes to Yale (or any school actually) they wouldn’t seem like him (IMO- I know chem majors and they are just not like him). I would have thought he majored in English or something entertainment/writing related. It’s like John Mulaney- he went to Georgetown and was an English major, but he’s a comedian.

      I heard about "Comfort Girls" a long time ago and was really disappointed when I couldn't find it online anywhere - though some of his other stuff is. He was using the label "ELY" for his work then, so I suppose if he wanted to continue in this direction, he could differentiate it from his mainstream material by going back to that old label.

I'm not great with horror so idk if I could watch all the Eugene originals, but man, his ideas are really great and even though both films seemed dark, I think there is a market for them. My question to Eugene is, how do you feel taming down your creativity to fit mainstream? If you don't mind it that's fine with me - but isn't the point of art to be provocative and don't you want to leave an artistic legacy behind that reflects the inside of your soul? Things you've probably thought about Eugene.. but I just wanted to put it out there. Respectfully, discopineapple
