Nearly everybody seems to have this, but I grabbed this one from [livejournal.com profile] paratti

A book you own that no one on your friend's list owns:
Junko Mizuno's Hell Babies artbook, Japanese edition. Padded pink vinyl to look like a baby book.

A CD you own that no one on your friend's list owns:
Howl: The Growls and Grunts of All Toho Monsters.

A DVD/VHS tape you own that no one on your friend's list owns:
The Quiet Earth, which is just darn rare on VHS. Alternately, the extremely low-rent but has-some-interesting-ideas zombie film Shatter Dead.

A place that you've been that no one on your friend's list has been to:
Tough one. Hm. The Bandai Musuem in Matsudo, Japan. Else we're probably talking storm sewers near in my hometown.

That's the one. And surreally, the background music near the end of X-Men is eerily similar to the music in that last, really memorable scene of The Quiet Earth. I've always wondered if that wasn't a slight "homage."

On DVD, finally? For the longest time it was VHS or nothing. That's a must-have, then. (Makes note)

Yeah, we order from amazon.uk quite frequently. Often foreign films especially come out there that never make it here, such as Indian musicals and Japanese horror....

And I agree, those scenes were amazing. If there's a more convincing, last-man-on-earth scenario then the first half of that movie out there, I certainly haven't seen it.

Storm sewers? You wouldn't by any chance be a fellow trespasser urban explorer?

I was just going to ask what you were doing down there!
Looking for something to slay?

Nah, just exploring. One of the odder outings of my high school days, and this guy I was hoping to impress... sigh. God, that was a long time ago. We came out through a manhole and climbed an abandoned building, too.

Eau de drainage not always a favourite fragrance!

I hope it hasn't soured you permanently on the joys of trespassing.

Oh, not at all. I just have less opportunities to do so these days. Less with the open storm sewer entrances in San Francisco.
