(...) Given the overall quality of John Carpenter's last few films, I can see why he'd resort to auctioning furniture on eBay. Dave! (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) Heh! In my original post, it was Joe Carpenter, I couldn't help changing it to John. I didn't know if anyone would catch it... Some of his recent movies have been realy bad, I agree, but "John Carpenter's Vampires" is thoroughly enjoyable, (...) (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

Starman, The Thing, and Big Trouble... are all pretty good (there's that phrase again!), but Village o' the Darned and In the Mouth of I-wish-I-were-HP-Lovecraft were terrible! (...)

(...) Hmmm. Yeah, "The Thing" is one of my favourites, ever since I first saw it (in about '84). And the DVD is good value, too - has some really good commentary about how they did some of the effects. Pretty fun stuff! ROSCO (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) Come on man!! "They Live" is probably my favorite "B" movie of all time. It has one of the best fist fights I've seen in a movie, All to get a guy to ware a pair of sunglasses of all things!!

(...) If by "best" you mean comically protracted, I wholeheartedly agree! While undeniably a good B-movie, one of the things I like most about it is... . . . . . . spoiler space . . . . . . . the fact that the hero dies. That's fairly rare in modern (...)

That is one awsome, and incredibly funny at times fight. If it (...) (24 years ago, 15-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
