Indie Films Mugs

"So many indie films, so little time."

"You're going out there an annoying, mannered girl, but you're going to come back an indie queen."

"I wasn't in the mood for exquisite observing."

I'm here with movie expert, Mister Flick, to discuss monsters who are actors. Let's start with Jekyll and Hyde. He does some good work and some bad work. Who picks scripts well? Dracula finds roles he can really sink his teeth into. Frankenstein, on the other hand, will take just about any part! What about King Kong's career? It was brief but he did climb to the top! And some critics think the Invisible Man is among the best. I agree with that ... but he only does low-budget indie films

"Ronny, there's not going to be any 3-D. The studio wants you to shoot it on your cell phone."

'Thank you for coming out to support our independent film. In the spirit of independence, we don't need you. Get out.'

"For the best picture not having won anything thereby being eliminated from this category..."

"I'll do the movie but I want to be highly compensated and highly acclaimed."

"I'll have a cup of coffee, and would you mind removing that ridiculous painting and turning off the Wilco?"

"I only like their bad albums – the good ones are too commercial."

"I'm glad they want comedy... the budget is a joke."

'You have no idea how hard I've gotta work just to maintain my indie cred around here!'

"Just remember, when he says 'indie' he means Indianapolis."

"It's an 80's indie band, fronted by Robert Smith."

Morrissey

Fuzz - The band will never lose its artistic integrity.

"That' was great - let's run though that again."

"I'm just doing this until my album breaks!"

"Tiffany tells me you were at Sundance."

"It's a niche movie. Then there's a car chase, and – bam – mass market."

Read this book! It will never be a motion picture or even a made for TV movie.

"How's this for an idea — the first hundred-million-dollar independent film!"
