I met Carpenter and he was very cool. I actually asked him why he comes off grumpy. He laughed and said, “it’s a huge emotional rollercoaster for me to talk to strangers. I hate praise and ego worship. I hate having my ass kissed. I was a kid who loved making movies. Anything beyond that is a myth”. I’ll never forget that.

@@DSnake655 same. If he hates ego worship and having his ass kissed and is just a “regular dude” like Alex Knox up there claims then maybe he should stop doing interviews and stay out of the public eye. His arm isn’t being twisted and he isn’t being forced to do these interviews or con appearances. He chose to sit down with this guy 😂

John was rude and patronising. I went off him after seeing this interview. I know he is a heavy smoker which can make people overly agitated but he usually controls his mood swings. Maybe because this was for a company in Britain artists often let themselves go as it isn't America. E.G. Robert Mitchum was more mannered in American interviews but when he came to Britain quite a different character was on show.

We met John and Cody that night, near the tour bus outside the Vicar Street venue. We waved at him like mad to get off the bus (we'd had a few) but he shook his head. When we were halfway up the street, one of the security guys called us back and said "John wants to talk to you". And there he was, climbing down from the bus with his hand outstretched. I don't know why he changed his mind, but I was beside myself. Unforgettable night.

I really like Carpenter's laidback, pretension-free view of films and his own work. His point about the interviewer trying to intellectualize everything is spot-on -- you can see Carpenter's desire to have a normal conversation when he talks about length of flights etc. This is the first interview I've see with him when he seems snappy, and I don't think it's his fault!

@JoKiR90 Жыл бұрын
It’s his fault 100%. He’s been in the movie business since the 70’s. He knows what he’s getting with these interviews. Especially at this point in his life and career. He knows they’re not their to have a good old fashioned friendly conversation with him about flights and the weather and what he had for breakfast. They didn’t twist his arm to do this interview. At this point John chooses what he wants to do and doesn’t want to do. He chose to be there so his behavior, again, is on him.

What he said about Alan was he would get the technical work so that all John had to do is play along to the film and Alan would have it mixed on the fly .

Its just painful to watch. The guy just doesn't set it up to be enjoyable at all, have a bit of energy. Rather than ask questions that we can find anywhere (and ones Carpenter has answered countless times) mix it up, ask some fun questions, what was the hardest shot of this film, what is your favourite shot of that film, if you had to get stuck in a room with one character who would be the best and who would be the worst, I think Carpenter would have enjoyed it more if the interviewer had more charisma and energy it comes off as a stilted nervous wreck and the constant going back to the book....jesus! Speak about subjects Carpenter loves and bring it round for the interview. Why ask questions we can find in countless places.

I had the pleasure of playing drums with the Flamin' Groovies (see Wikipedia) at the production wrap-up party for the movie, "The Thing" that year in Hollywood. I met John, his wife Adrienne (both very nice at the time)...and the special joy of meeting Kurt Russell ...who just happened to be a "Flamin' Groovies" Fan (go figure!). It was a fun night. The band members were all given purple, silk team jackets with "John Carpenter's The Thing on the back.....which I lost years ago. We heard that John asked Kurt, "Who would you like to provide music at the wrap party?" Kurt said, "the Flamin' Groovies"....to which John replied, "Who are they?" Always liked that movie! It sure was painful to see such a BAD interview! Poor John, having to put up with such shallow questions! Hopefully the interviewer will find an easier profession for himself............maybe Underwater Fingerpainting!!

Poor John. This guy is painful. I made 24.33 minutes, but this guy is out of his league in every sense. Didn't really do his homework & has no idea what he's doing. You can see the pain in John's eyes over the stupid questions. His eyes roll like mine, to the point of eye strain. GAWD

I appreciate Mr Carpenter's honesty and no bullshit approach to life and that comes across in his movies, particularly the thing is a great example that movie is almost too realistic and was probably a big part of why it was critically panned, its too effective and does not let up, it put the audience in a corner and just attacked them relentlessly on every level with very few tension release valve moments and no hope. Its the end of the world and its inevitable.

Inside of 10 seconds I could tell this was going to be a painful interview to watch, and I paused it to read some of the comments... sure enough every comment is about how brutally painful it was to watch. Still, I really tried to watch it anyhow, but my God, the pain... So, as much as I love and admire JC, I'm going to have to pass on watching the rest... Get a better interviewer apparently because this guy is awful. Such a shame, waste of the mans time and ours.

Instead of coming into the interview with a passion and love for film, the interviewer shows up with a smugness and unfounded intelligent attitude with incredibly trite questions. As many interviews John Carpenter has given over the years, I'm sure he was annoyed by the whole interview. I think this is a problem with film "know-it-alls" who have studied film in school and assume they're so clever. Just come in with a passion and talk about your favorite scenes in his films ask him real questions you want to know!
