Categories on why.movie
05-04-18 As today is an organization day, I was inspired to start by simplify categories for why.movie. There hasn’t been a whole lot of functionality there because there were way too many and I was confusing categories with tags.

Thinking of the Alexander analogy, when is an army big enough? When it’s big enough to win. I don’t need an ever expanding budget, just enough to make the movies I want to make. To accomplish the projects that seem worthy to me. The Mycenaens trekked 20k miles conquering the whole way. A crazy assed…
