A computer nerd's view of Peter Jackson

My brain's "variables" — internal representations — for "heroic" and "awesome" and so forth are signed values. Peter Jackson's are unsigned, so he gets to enjoy twice the level of awesomeness and heroicity that I do. But when he cranks his movies up to the max, for me, the values wrap around to being negative.
