H Rocco Oscar® Winner	Apart from being dantoris' signature for a while, I believe the image is of Stephen Dorff from JOHN CARPENTER'S VAMPIRES.

Chris Kinsinger Oscar® Winner	Never saw Carpenter's Vampires. Is it any good? I thought his remake of Village Of The Damned was dreadful...what happened to the John Carpenter who I loved when he made The Thing and Big Trouble In Little China? So Howard, it looks like you & I are the message board's Butch & Sundance. "Harrisburg Hairball and The Old Tampa Fart". Or do you want top billing?

Chris Kinsinger Oscar® Winner	Hey Timmer! About John Carpenter...I really loved his movies, right up until Prince Of Darkness (1987). I saw that one in the theatre, and couldn't believe what a mess it was. That movie represents the LINE that Carpenter has drawn. Everything before that line was fascinating stuff. But everything after that line has been pretty poor. What happened? Did Carpenter finally fry his brain cells with drugs?

H Rocco Oscar® Winner	I LIKED VAMPIRES ... it wasn't AT ALL the movie I would have made (I adored the novel), but I thought it was a bit of a return to form. VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED was dreadful, I hated MEMOIRS OF AN INVISIBLE MAN, but I rather enjoyed the purposeful intransigence of IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS. I haven't seen a lot of his latter-day pictures, but I kind of think that the problem isn't that he's changed, it's that he HASN'T changed. He's saying the same couple of things over and over again, and I see no development of any kind. He seems almost bored with HIMSELF at times. I'm a bit worried that his next picture (as I remember) looks so much like THE THING. Um, he made that one already, people? NP: "Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher"

Nicolai P. Zwar Oscar® Winner	Mr. Rocco hits the spot, my sentiments exactly. The problem with Carpenter is that he has NOT changed. He's still doing the same old same old film trickety scares that he did in HALLOWEEN. Some of his later movies had some interesting ideas, especially IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS, which also had certain interesting single scenes but got bogged down unbelievably toward the end. VAMPIRES was such a case. The opening of the movie when the vampire hunters take out the first nest was very well staged, and certain scenes in the movie worked well (Maximillian Schell as a cardinal was a delight), but overall it was not that much to be excited about. Still not quite back to the form he once had with movies like ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK.

Howard L Oscar® Winner	"So Howard, it looks like you & I are the message board's Butch & Sundance. 'Harrisburg Hairball and The Old Tampa Fart'"." I like it. And better yet, think of us as Wilford Brimley & Richard Farnsworth in the dugout happily discussing memorable moments in "the game."

Jennie Oscar® Winner	Hmmm....a picture? I dunno...I'm very NOT photogenic...I hate pictures...that's why I'm usually BEHIND the camera as the photographer and such in some clubs I am in.

As for female Celebs that we are infatuated with. Well, I would assume all would be an good rough estimate. I will say, it is nice to have the female perspective when it comes to discussing film music. So anyway, thanks. NP: Krull MP3 Suite ***** Regards, Sean Robert Abbey

H Rocco Oscar® Winner	Jennie, WHICH of us ARE photogenic? Look at those mugs! I've settled on my photo -- not the cigar one I alluded to before, one more terrifying by far. Now I just figure out the scanner.

Chris Kinsinger Oscar® Winner	"...better yet, think of us as Wilford Brimley & Richard Farnsworth in the dugout happily discussing memorable moments in 'the game.'" I hope that this won't embarrass you, Howard, but I love you...and the image (from The Natural, one of my favorites!) above perfectly depicts our (virtual) friendship. A good friend is a treasure, even if we've never actually met. Now...on to John Carpenter. I don't entirely agree with the assessment above (that he hasn't changed). How can the John Carpenter who directed Starman possibly be the same John Carpenter who directed the dreadful Village Of The Damned??? I believe that drugs are involved here somewhere...that is unless other life-altering circumstances are to blame. The man HAS changed...

Nicolai P. Zwar Oscar® Winner	Some years ago (maybe in 1994 or so), I met John Carpenter. He looks somewhat older than he actually is, but he did not seem to be under drugs at that moment.

Marian Schedenig Oscar® Winner	Chris, that was hilarious! Valere, we want to see your photo! Oops. Guess I shouldn't have said that, as I still haven't got around to scan a photo of myself... Well, I hope I will soon. And then, mommy will have to decide whether to honor this by posting her own photo, too. NP: Sinfonia antartica (Ralph Vaughan Williams)
