I’ll just preface this by saying I had an extremely hard time choosing a director. I love film and drowned myself in choices; but the director I chose is a personal favorite of mine as well as an amazing director that could take this project to the next level, David Fincher. Anyone who loves film knows the Finch, the guy behind Fight Club, Gone Girl, Se7en, and my personal favorite, Zodiac (so underrated it should be criminal).

Writing yourself in any sort of way is easy, and she’s never challenged herself to do something different. In that sense, I feel her characters are kind of one-note. She’s the funny girl, where is the other side of her? This goes into a second weakness I think she has. Mindy is one note. I hate saying this, but I think it’s true. The funny pop-culture loving girl shtick is great, but what range, depth, outside the box thinking do you have? I have never seen her stretch. I like writer’s and directors who challenge themselves and I don’t think she does. I would love to see her do something dark or terrible just to shake things up. I think as an artist you have to keep evolving and growing, and honestly, I don’t see very much
