What Doktor Rotwang Thinks of the OSR Movement...
A quote from Top Dollar in “The Crow” (1994)…
“Well, well, well... Devil's Night is upon us again.
So we throw a little party, start a bunch of fires, make a little profit.
Problem is, it’s all been done before.
Man has an idea.
The idea attracts others... like-minded.
The idea expands.
The idea becomes an institution.
What was the idea?
That’s what’s been bothering me, boys.
’Cause I tell you — when I used to think about the idea itself,
it put a big old smile on my face.
You see, gentlemen...
Greed is for amateurs.
Disorder.
Chaos.
Anarchy.
Now that’s fun.
I started the first fires in this goddamn city.
Where I go, every charlatan and shit heel imitates me.
You know what they got now?
Devil’s Night greeting cards.
Isn’t that precious?
Yeah.
The idea has become the institution, boys.
Time to move along.
No, no...
I want you to set a fire so goddamned big,
the gods will notice us again.
That’s what I’m saying.
I want all you boys to look me straight in the eye one more time and say: ARE WE HAVING FUN OR WHAT??!!”
