I think John Carpenter deserves an Oscar for Lifetime Achievement and they should do it NOW!


The man has made some of the most memorable movies of the last half century. He did gross, weird, funny movies that resonated with a LOT of us. Almost NONE of his work was a commercial success but who doesn't love "Escape from New York" or "Big Trouble in Little China" or what I consider his perfection incarnate masterpiece, "The Thing". He launched the entire slasher genre. The man is a fucking LEGEND and he deserves this at the least. The problem is, he didn't make art, he made ENTERTAINMENT. Which is what movies are at their core. Give that mayn his Oscer! via /r/movies https://ift.tt/3e1cKAy
