Stu's Picks


Stu

Who would play you in a movie? Rutger Hauer's character (Roy Batty) from Blade Runner, best villain-hero since Frankenstein.

Author you love to hate: Bob Dylan, I'm not sure  he's written a book, but what a yodler. Also Stephanie Meyer. Team Eli all the way!

What’s your porn star name? A tie between Studs Shagswell and Spank Spankerton.

What’s your favorite memory? Traveling to Prague for a Stop Motion Animation workshop. Visiting Kutna Hora and Jan and Eva Svankmajers gallery with my wife afterwards.

What's your favorite smell? Woodsmoke on a cold day.

Favorite pair of shoes (past or present): I have more of a love affair with T-Shirts, there's this one right now that has Animal from the Muppets on it. My mood perks up ten points when I wear it, bit of problem when it gets stinky and I have no time to wash it.

If you had a super power, what would it be? I'd love to make it rain bones on command like a Mortal Kombat fatality.

What’s in the trunk of your car? Books, I have soooooo many books, which is distressing because I no longer have anywhere to put bodies.

J. O. Barr is one of my favorite illustrators of comics, his style is closely akin to Will Eisner. Barr makes emotionally charged visual poetry laden with dark and violent overtones, its an urban western.

This is the director's cut of The Crow with material always intended for the original.

Feels a touch more avant-gard than the movie.

Whenever I feel blue, Haruki Murakami cheers me up. It's the combination of eccentric characters, surrealism, and addressing the issue of social isolation in Japan and society as a whole that make Murakami such a fun and soulful read. You don't always know what is going on, but you're too intrigued to care. Norwegian Wood is one of Murakami's works without surrealism, yet it is still filled with such memorable characters! Love in this book means finding someone who will let you be yourself.
