I watched The Goonies today as it goes. I've really been
obsessed with films from the 1980s lately.

that's because, I imagine, we're less aware of the process
when we're children, and we accept more. the key to watching
it now is to strip yourself of your sophistications, and
slip back to being young again. take my hand, and we will
walk into the water.

I'm never underwhelmed by things I used to love a decade and
a half ago. Probably because I've never STOPPED watching and
doing things I did back all those years ago.

Gotta watch each Transformers season at least once every
year or two. I'll even pick up an Archie comic or a 1990
Gamepro and leaf through it.

I have the 2-disc DVD of BTILChina ;) excellent stuff, a
movie that at first glance doesn't seem so appealing, but
grows on ya. I watched a movie today which I picked up in a
2nd-hand shop some time ago, called The Jitters -- it's
kinda funny -- features chinese vampires in chinatown -- you
might like it :D LOW budget flick.

I remember the first time I heard KLF's "Chill Out", being
pleasantly stoned and blown away by it -- it was so
fantastic, a true defining moment.

I remember one of the first times I heard SAWII -- in my
flat in Edinburgh aged 18 -- my friend brought around his
vinyl copy, and we had big speakers and listened to it in
the dark.

I remember the first time I heard Pink Floyd's The Wall -- I
was 14, doing the washing up, when my big brother put it on
the tape player... again, I was blown away by it, and
instantly fell in love with it.

I remember visiting the Blue Room in Edinburgh aged 18,
listening to trip hop sitting at a table on a sunday night
surrounded by fake fog, and smoking a joint, and thinking
"wow, this is ultra cool".
