Any particular quotes that are worthwhile? I don't feel like watching the entire thing.

Wally said "they" recently watched PRINCE OF THE CITY, the Sidney Lumet film. Not sure if he was talking about Chris and himself or not. If so, could that be one of RISES' inspirations? Like BLADE RUNNER was to BEGINS and HEAT was to KNIGHT?

Just throwing that out there.

The reason why i said "3:00A.M." was because of the patrick picture. The episode of spongebob "graveyard shift". :geek:

Interesting interview. The way he talks about capturing light on film is really inspiring.
