Oh, how I love John Carpenter


And especially since I found this. In particular Episode 2 of Big Trouble in Little South Park, which soothed my hangover no end. It's not been a productive day, but there has been joy! Also I'm very tempted by the idea of purchasing a replica wife-beater, though not sure if I'll mullet up to complete the look.

Also I cannot fathom how it managed to bomb at the box office, it's obviously up there in Carpenter's top three films. And Kurt Russell's, the other two being Escape from New York, and The Thing. Hang on, I feel some kind of film-watching marathon coming on...

I think you'll find you're overlooking Halloween and Tango & Cash for Carpenter and Russell respectively.

Oh yes, and we've just finished teaching, so you might receive a few more e-mails now that we're back in the (ahem) "technosphere".

The idea was of the two conplementing each other perfectly. I hear there is a petition for a BTLC II which I shall be signing up for.

Also Nick we are in Basingstoke this weekend I'm afraid - Dan tried to lure us to London but to no avail.
