  1. why are there no stupid questions?
    :-p

  2. Lol, you had me there for a moment, Hallvord.

    Because there are only stupid answers, my friend. But I know that you knew the answer, so let me answer by some more questions:

    1) Should Vegetarians eat animal crackers?
    2) Do you find it a bit unnerving doctors call what they do practice?
    3) If a funeral procession is at night, do you drive with your lights off?
    4) If a turtle doesn’t have a shell, is he homeless or naked?
    5) If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?
    6) When sign makers go on strike, is anything written on their signs?
    7) When you open a bag of cotton balls, is the top one meant to be thrown away?
    8) Would a fly without wings be called a walk?

    But seriously, any film/media/photography/lighting questions…

    Which reminds me; the list from above was, erm, borrowed. But in the film-world, whenever you use someelse’s ideas, this is not called taking, stealing or plagiarism, no, here it is nobly called “to make a hommage”.

  3. Well, I can answer some of those (skipping 1 and 7 because I don’t get the point):

    – 2: If the world is a stage life must have its share of rehearsals so why should doctors be an exception?

    – 3: No, you hire Martin Weiss to do the lighting

    – 4: Neither, the shell neither fits the definition of “clothes” nor “house”

    – 5: Only if the doctor’s surname is Bush or Putin, in which case the person(s) is accused of terrorism

    – 6: Of course. A DIY job is not strike breaking by any reasonable definition.

    – 8: Definitely not, walking is something humans do. I know the answer but will refrain from revealing its real name here: a fly without wings prefers being anonymous because it is by the very nature of things on the Homeland Security Office’s “no-fly” list.

    OK, a slightly film-related question: why does a peaceful guy like you run around “shooting” people?
