I'm trying to imagine what the director thought the audience's reaction would be. Some of the editing - like when he's about to fall down the stairs - seems to suggest she thought it would be tense. I wonder if, heading home at the end of the working day, she imagined the audience coiled rigid with fear and anxiety and speculated that the sequence would be spoken of in the same breath as the opening to Halloween. Or maybe she just didn't give a shit.

On a Nightmare on Elm Street tip, a good film trivia question is always what do Johnny Depp, Alice Cooper, LA Confidential writer Brian Helgeland, Iggy Pop and Peter Jackson all have in common.

^^^ by the way, if you're using that in a pub or at a dinner party it's a lot harder for people to guess the answer if you don't start by saying "Speaking of Nightmare on Elm Street..."

Try guessing it from the context. There's a clue in the phrase "On a Nightmare on Elm Street tip..."

Did they all have terrifying nightmares as children and have all tried to beat the record for staying awake just so that they don't have to face their fears in their dreamworld?

Did Peter Jackson have his innards ripped out and his body smeared all over the walls and roof of his bedroom by an invisible attacker?

have they all got drunk and awoken the next day to find that they've cellotaped cutlery to their hand, and three hours later while they slowly eat a bagel remembered that they posted a picture of themselves brandishing this arrangement together with a liberal coating of ketchup on their exposed torso onto a social networking site?

My last post had a slight spoiler about something that happens in Nightmare in Elm Street, so don't read it if you want to watch the film with no knowledge of what is going on.

did they all buy the 7 disc dvd set at a knock down price only to find that the promised commentary on disc 4 was non-existant?

have they all murdered children, been killed by a mob of concerned parents, then made murderous wisecracking appearances in the dreams of the children of the parents that killed them?

Have they all been played by Robert "classically trained actor" Englund?

That's Dennis The Menace though, right?

I thought Red and Green, but did a google image search to make sure and almost all the pictures on the front page are red and black which is why i wrote it.

It is Google's fault my post was wrong.

That answer is a bit of a letdown really.

Like I say, it's more suprising if you don't have a whole build up talking about the Nightmare on Elm Street series. Try imagining that question coming completely out of the blue, without any of the giveaway context. Perhaps after someone has just announced a really important piece of news, or a family bereavement, or maybe just to break a tense silence during a lunch break at the pub with some work colleagues. Suddenly, you see, it's a lot less predictable and more satisfying.

Also, the coda to the question is when people go, "OK... all right. Johnny Depp was in the first one, obviously, and Alice Cooper played Freddy's dad in number six, and Iggy did a song for no. 4, which - now you mention it - I remember was written by Brian Helgeland, but what the frigging tits did Peter Jackson ever have to do with Nightmare on Elm Street?"

I was looking through my bookshelf the other day and discovered that we own a book called "Puppetry of the Penis".

I say we, but I suspect it is Kate's rather than mine. It appears to be about using your penis as a puppet shockingly enough.

Lunch was some Tesco sushi, a tesco pork pie and two bananas. The sushi didn't come with enough soy sauce and had no wasabi.

That does sound like the lunch of a pregnant doesn't it.

I was going to buy a sandwich, a pork pie and some bananas, which is quite a sensible lunch. However, I had picked up the pork pie and was looking at the sandwiches thinking "I hate a sausage, hash brown and fried egg bap but 4 hours ago, do I need more bread?" and then cast my eyes down to the sushi and thought "Rice would be suitably filling and a bit of a change, and at £1.30 for that pack, it is also a bargain".

If I had reached this decision before picking up the pork pie then I may well have realised that pork pie did not go with sushi, however as I already had the pork pie in my basket I didn't really link the two together and this is why they were purchased.

I admit it was wrong and I shall attempt to do a better lunch when I have my next work lunch break on Friday.
