The newscaster on Soviet TV says "everyone in Moscow has an apartment, while people in New York sleep on park benches."

The next day an ad appears in the Moscow paper: "WANTED TO TRADE: three-bedroom apartment in Moscow for park bench in New York."

Did you ever work on any pilots that didn't get picked up by a network?

I saw BATTLEFIELD EARTH on opening weekend and actually enjoyed it. But then again, I love bad movies. Also, I was totally baked.

Unfortunately for Christian and everyone else involved in the movie, the filthy man-animals at Franchise Pictures were actually making the movie as part of a massive accounting fraud. (They told investors it was budgeted at something like $70M, but in reality only about half of that was allocated to the movie. And it shows.)

I heard you on the We Hate Movies podcast talking about Deadlock (aka Wedlock) with Rutger Hauer. Any great stories from making that one?

I haven't seen that, but I did read an Ebert article that acknowledges how FREDDY GOT FINGERED (which he despised) has picked up a huge cult following.
