Birdman

- I'm gonna destroy your play
- Did I do anything to offend you?
- as a matter of fact you did, you took up space in a theater that otherwise might have been used on something worthwhile.
- OK well you didn't know if it is any good or not
- that's true, I haven't read a word of it or even seen the preview but after the opening tomorrow I'm going to turn in the worst review anybody has ever read and I'm going to close your play. Would you like to know why? because I hate you and everyone you represent. Entitled, selfish, spoiled children. Blissfully untrained, unversed and unprepared to even attempt real art. Handing each other awards for cartoons and pornography. Measuring your work in weekends. Well this is theater and you don't get to come in here and pretend you can write, direct and act in your own propaganda piece without coming through me first. So break a leg
- ... I'm an actor...
- You are no actor you are a celebrity, let's be clear on that.
