I gather Shipwrecked on Islands! has become somewhat controversial due to my brother's involvement in the Parliament occupation, but he honestly hadn't read my script -- the only people who knew that the uni riots were the inciting incident were the arseholes surveilling me. 🤬 To be blunt: the Government cannot stop me from writing a script. That's true, and there's no causative or strong correlative link between video game and movie violence and reality (yes, for real... that's old wives tales bs). So, no matter how much Mr Hipkins dislikes it, I'm finishing that 2030 musical and he can accept that.


It's not like he takes my policy suggestions seriously... 🤣

Accepting that I tried hard, and gave up because I knew I couldn't carry it. I tried really, really hard to make that series happen and was gutted, but now I know that I can't be the lead without going insane (that's what happened to Hannah, Stephen and myself over our various films), and that's why I'm focusing on the 2030 musical. The…
