Studio exec’s theory on suspense:
Tweet“A guy takes a chicken outside the door, says: ‘I’m gonna fuck this chicken.’ He leaves. Now you’ve got suspense, see? You don’t know when he’s gonna fuck that chicken or if he even is gonna fuck that chicken. Do you race out there to defend the chicken? Do you? That’s suspense.”
