Another marginal brush with semi-greatness

[ltmurnau]

Hey, guess what?

I was randomly Googling one of my game titles (to see where it pops up, is being sold, or has comments) and found that Alex Cox (director of Repo Man, Sid & Nancy, etc.) is doing a project for Venezuelan TV called Against The World. http://www.alexcox.com/future_prod.htm#P3

It's a semi-documentary about the various US Rainbow war plans, namely "Red" (war against Britain), "Crimson" (invasion of Canada) and "Green" (invading Mexico).

I offered him a copy of my War Plan Crimson game, and he accepted! (Though at first he asked if it would play on a Mac....) I sent it off to him today, with my regards.

I don't expect to hear back from him, but I don't mind - Repo Man is my favouritest movie EVAR (!!!) and it's nice to be able to send him something in appreciation for his work.

I love Alex Cox!

There is always something interesting about everything he does.

Bud: Credit is a sacred trust, it's what our free society is founded on. Do you think they give a damn about their bills in Russia? I said, do you think they give a damn about their bills in Russia?
Otto: They don't pay bills in Russia, it's all free.
Bud: All free? Free my ass. What are you, a fuckin' commie? Huh?
Otto: No, I ain't no commie.
Bud: Well, you better not be. I don't want no commies in my car. No Christians either.

Wonderful movie.

"C'mon Duke, let's go do those crimes...."
"Yeah, let's go get sushi - a-and not pay!"
