If you could pick one artist and get them to create more stuff now, who would it be?

I'd pick Darin Morgan, who wrote four episodes of The X-Files and two of Millennium, five of which were among the smartest, funniest and most touching hours of telly I've ever seen. Then he embarked on a career of doing nothing.

Mitch, so he would quit bitching about it.

I'd make John -- the Revelation guy -- write lyrics for Eminem.

St. John of Matmos? That would be cool.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 15 September 2003 15:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Was that the St. John who invented the lava lamp?

Bill Waterson, more Calvin & Hobbes preferably.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 15 September 2003 17:26 (twenty-two years ago)

I second Bill Waterson, and add the guy who did Bloom County.

If we can do this, I remove Berke Breathed!

Barbara Neely, I wish she'd write a new book. Um, there are lots of dead ones I need more from, if we're making a total fantasy list... I want another Epoxies album toot sweet and they're not dead.

ugh

Hating on Bloom County/Berke Breathed is unacceptable.

Kieslowski, a) even though he's dead, and b) he's still got projects in development.

Portishead

The Real Frank Miller, not the Fake One who did DK2.

― Sir Leee (Leee), Tuesday, 30 September 2003 05:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Captain Beefheart

Eric Cantona

I know it's not fun to rag on someone posting to a thread of yours (and in particular one you're glad to see revived), but seriously, man, Portishead? Go play the first album again. That's all they will produce ever.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 30 September 2003 09:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Excepting of course the second one.

― Sean (Sean), Tuesday, 30 September 2003 09:20 (twenty-two years ago)

The second one = the first one again, is my point.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 30 September 2003 09:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Only better.

― Nathan W (Nathan Webb), Tuesday, 30 September 2003 10:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Bill Watson thirded here
A.A. Milne
Haruki Murakami

Sorry, I don't do very well with maths.
