Tabarrok in Variety

"Unstable characters run amok in Tabarrok's oddball oeuvre..."

Apparently, my movie producer brother and I have more than family in common!

Here and here are previous MR posts on my brother's oddball oeuvre.

I've had lots of professional interaction with producers and the cats they herd. Funding, producing, marketing/selling an independent movie is a difficult task that takes force of personality and a mind flexible enough to deal with studio executives, actors, agents, lawyers and the accountants.

Good for your brother, its nice to see some success out of the Tabbarok clan.

Weirdsville was funny. Less light-hearted than other stoner-comedies which I'd say made it better.

You get some Tabarrok in Variety and we get some variety in our Tabarrok.

"Palinmania"

The Palindrones, can't tell whether they are coming or going.

I object. We're not entirely unstable and it's a bit pretentious to refer to a blog as your "oeuvre".

I just moved to LA, can you get me a job at your brother's company?
