john carpenter interview is not disappointing, he is so likeable

[@BrokenGodEnt]

He used to be seen as a bit of a dick. Refused to talk about certain things for awhile (Halloween being the biggest example) and said he even hated the Halloween series including his original. And he's also mentioned only getting involved in H: 2018 for a big paycheck. So he's either mellowed out, or just likes James lol. Also though, makes great movies. In the Mouth of Madness, Escape From NY and LA (unpopular to love that one, but I do), The Thing, Halloween, Starman, They Live, etc. Classics. All of 'em.

[@scottstark5528]

@@BrokenGodEnt I couldn't agree more, he has largely been an asshole in interviews since Halloween III, definitely regarding the Halloween franchise. He seems to have mellowed out, and Chelsea and James conducted a great interview with him.

[@16CharlyV]

5:10 - I love how John decides to turn the interview sideways and actually ask Chelsea and James about their hometown. Such a humble, curious man. I love him.
