Baron Munchausen is so-so. It has it's moments, especially when Robin Williams is onscreen. Mostly it just lost a lot of thecharm it had when I was younger.
Big Trouble In Little China is terrible.

I found Backstreet Boys: Backstreet's Back Behind The Scenes about a month ago while I was cleaning my basement.

I have a bunch of really horrible overseas region encoded lesbian pornography that is actually impossible to jack off to, it is just that ridiculous. If a girl ever said "fuck my pussy" while I was inside of her I would probably throw up a little bit.
Also I had no idea you could region encode VHS tapes but apparently you can. It took me months to track down a tape player that would play them and this involved playing it in a crowded pawn shop more than once which was just super awkward, and all for some porn I couldn't even enjoy.

--- Quote from: zerodrone on 17 Jan 2008, 16:27 ---ObPedantic: Johnny Mnemonic is a short story, perhaps you are thinking of Neuromancer by the same author, which is being made as a $70 million dollar movie with Hayden Christenson as Case, directed by a guy whose resume includes almost nothing but music videos, including Britney Speas' "Toxic" and "Knights of Cydonia".
Unless you were being funny.

Actually I just have a printing of Johnny Mnemonic bound on its own, so I mistakingly called it a book instead of stipulating that it is, indeed, a short story. Still doesn't change my opinion on it though. :P And I know very well which movie I was talking about. It starred Keanu Reeves, Ice-T, Henry Rollins, etc. I enjoyed it. It is a little bit hokey, but the story itself is interesting (though it differs from the short story significantly, if you haven't read it/seen it). William Gibson was a pioneer in cyberpunk, and as Johnny Mnemonic was first published in 1981, and his first novel (Neuromancer) was published in 1984, I still think it is safe to say that Johnny Mnemonic was at the start of the cyberpunk revolution, at least as far as William Gibson is concerned.
