Hideo Kojima cheers himself up by watching the making of The Abyss

Kojima says he works all day, 5 days per week. Hits the fitness center twice per week. Has dinner conferences. Maybe squeezes in a guide or a film earlier than mattress. Takes weekends and holidays off, perhaps hits a museum in his spare time. I dunno, feels like a reasonably strong gig, however given the allegations about Konami’s employment practices, I actually received’t begrudge Hideo a strong work-life stability.

But what does he do when the grind of sport improvement will get him down? What any self-respecting creator with filmic aspirations would do, in fact – watches the making of James Cameron’s The Abyss.

Perhaps we should always all be taught a factor or two about perseverance from James Cameron and get our personal troubled genius cred by repeatedly watching the making of the Abyss. Let’s simply hope that Kojima is nearer to his Terminator 2 days than his “I want to make Avatar sequels forever” time.
