(Oh yeah: unless it's to be kept secretive, what mailing list? I've been growing bored with my current online haunts.)
Don't really see why one would remake Enter the Dragon, but then I feel that way about most things (and am somewhat pleased that the Prisoner remake has apparently been abandoned). EtD is, as one might expect, fun but ridiculous, and also very seventies. It's been much imitated, both as parody and not; Balls of Fury looks to be another example of the former.
Speaking of acid reflex, haven't been feeling all that well this evening. Continue to be annoyed that New York made all its toilet bowl too small by law a number of years ago. But enough TMI.
Is "The Outsider" the one where the guy realizes he's a monster at the end? (Will check before long.) Meanwhile, seem to have started yet another Moorcock, The Final Programme, and am surprised to find the writing style (from the same era as previously-mentioned stuff) significantly improved, even if the plot still basically boils down to quests & fightin', just more sardonic.
