I came across a Stanley Kubrick biography in a charity shop last week and bought it for $1, which I'm yet to read.
It was written by an author I hadn't heard of before named John Baxter who seems to be somewhat of a book collector going by other titles of books he has authored.

Then I did an internet search for The Kubrickon and found an old 2014 podcast interview at The Sync Book site featuring Jasun and also featuring the late Mark LeClair.

It's still interesting/amusing to listen to their POV, but hard to take Jasun and Chris seriously, like they seem to be taking themselves.
I wonder if Jasun would classify Chris Knowles as a Kubrick Cultist like the likes of me and the other sync-heads?
Who would have thought a decade ago that sync-heads would be throwing bones at each other like opposing pop-cult members?-)
I find it funny how Jasun compares people who like Kubrick movies to heroin addicts in that interview with Shaun Attwood:-)
IA get the feeling Jasun really doesn't like Kubrick or people who like Kubrick's monolithic work:-)Weird Studies Podcast: On Stanley Kubrick's 'Eyes Wide Shut' |
Jasun just seems to have an axe to grind over Kubrick's work and with people who like it:-)
These Gen-Xers hit their 50s and all the leaded gasoline they huffed as kids finally turns their brains to tapioca. Many such cases, alas.
