Music:
Aphex Twin, Radiohead, Talk Talk, Boards of Canada, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the Pixies, the Smiths, the Clash, the Flaming Lips, the White Stripes, Beck, the Cure, Outkast, Jethro Tull, Led Zepplin, the Beatles... I am also quite partial to Uzbeki lounge, Belgian nosebleed, Welsh house and Icelandic folk. And bands with rude names, obviously.
Movies:
Ooh... My favourites are Eraserhead, Barry Lyndon, the Phantom of Liberty, Ichi the Killer and Barton Fink. All very pretentious I'm sure you'll agree. Will also watch anything that makes me laugh or think, failing that, any nine hour black and white Polish documentary about the holocaust will do.
Television:
Anything that makes me laugh. Examples include: Brass Eye, Jam, Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, the Simpsons, Father Ted, the Daily Show, Monty Python etcetera. I also like hard-hitting documentaries. And Crufts.
Books:
Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut, American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis, the White Hotel by D M Thomas, the Cornelius Quartet by Michael Moorcock. I also enjoy Stephen King and his books. Also an avid reader of comics and worship at the thrones of Grant Morrison, Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman.
Heroes:
Wonder Woman, the Phantom Stranger, Deadman, Zantanna, Mister Miracle, Howard the Duck, Miracleman (or Marvelman, I don't mind), Dead Girl, Doctor Strange, all of the Doom Patrol, Animal Man, Mr Hero, Green Arrow (Oliver Queen, obviously), Batman, the Martian Manhunter... I could go on!
