I really hope that this is a very public negotiating tactic. I dunno. If Lynch isn't doing it, i don't want them to do it at all.

BD: So what stories and mediums influenced you most growing up?
MF: I would say that I was equally entranced by fiction and film. I was initially swept away by classic adventure authors like James Fenimore Cooper, H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, H. Rider Haggard. As I got older I got a little more populist in my tastes and embraced pulp fiction like Doc Savage and Tarzan. I also became a comic book collector in my early teenage years, particularly the silver age of the Marvel Universe and that led me into Tolkien and fantasy and sci-fi like Heinlein, Leguin and Bradbury. After that, I got more into adult fiction.
On the film side , I grew up in the era of James Bond and the great adventure movies of Lean and Hitchcock, and came of age in the 70’s, a golden age in American film making. The Godfather, Chinatown and Raging Bull – that whole canon through that decade really had a huge impact on me.
BD: What else would you say was influential in your early artistic development?
MF: Well I started writing myself, inspired by all those influences but also by television shows like The Wild, Wild West, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Mission: Impossible, Star Trek and The Prisoner. I began writing novels when I was ten or eleven and had written 3 by the time I was fifteen. So I knew pretty early on that storytelling was the path for me.
