All of the people that contribute to this site are great and I love how this is a place I can geek out on movies that many of my friends won't tolerate. I gain insight from everyone here. On Reed's China comment, I was in Macau China during a past holiday season for business working with an all Chinese team on a building project. As Reed knows, everyone on the team did EVERYTHING together. We kept going to the same restaurant that had "Santa Claus is Coming To Town" on continuous loop! It was like white noise to the Chinese. I had to work out an elaborate scheme with a fellow Chinese American coworker of how to get out of these dinners before I stuck a steak knife in my head!

I like to think that I occasionally have something interesting to say. The bootleg is indeed entitled "God's Army." Actually, I still have a poor VHS bootleg copy. A friend also provided me with early versions of "Waterworld" and "Robocop 3." As a fan of the filmmaking process, I like to see early edits, and all the footage that eventually gets discarded, and do a comparison with the finished films. With DVDs and Blu-ray providing more and more supplements, I guess there's less reason to seek out these leaked versions.

This is about an incredibly old (internet age) podcast, (Ep. 231 District 9) but I was just recently listening and heard Reed mention an early version of The Prophecy he had seen a bootleg version of. For anyone not believing this existed, I can say that I did see the (probably) exact same bootleg. At the time it was called 'God's Army' and was titled as such if I remember correctly. No sfx from what I remember and it was a very poor copy. The only reason I even remember any of this was that it was one of the first times I had ever seen a 'bootleg' copy of a movie. I thought it was very cool to be seeing a film before it came out in the theater and really, now that I think about it, it seemed to me to be the start of the whole movie piracy era with the internet and such. Not sure why I thought this was important, but I think I did want Reed to know that someone else did see that. heh Anyway Happy New Year and look forward to many more awesome podcasts in the future, guys!

Thx for all of your holiday greetings. I just watched a news report about how Xmas is being celebrated in China. One Beijing shopper noted how much she enjoyed the "romantic fairy tale of Santa." Ha ha. Hope all of you are sitting back digesting your Xmas dinner. Thx for all of your holiday greetings.
