I don't want to give the moon attention for its aberrant behavior. Go home, Moon, it's the daytime! You're drunk!

King's Landing is the Gotham City of Westeros.

"I'm breaking the wheel! Now, everyone swear traditional feudal fealty to me because of a quasi-legitimate legal argument that I'm your monarch or get burned alive!"

Yup.

Man, I would love it if they took 3 or 4 episodes to adapt "The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck."

Pffft. I doubt that Breitbart could do a better job of objectifying and demeaning women than the current fashion industry.

I still maintain that Conway's outfit above would've made a great costume for Buckey in the first Captain America flick.

Even weirder is that Eisner and Miller were pretty good friends, and Miller made the movie because he didn't want anyone to "ruin" the Spirit. I think he somehow really thought he was honoring the character.

I think this is what Snyder (and Miller) were going for - the elephants as grotesque weird beasts were how the Spartans saw them, not how they actually were, but I think they fail in the execution so it just looks like they're fighting Lord of the Rings monsters.

I don't remember which came first - the Simpsons episode where Homer gets a gun and then uses it to do EVERYTHING (turning off the TV, the lights, opening a beer, etc.), but I saw the Simpsons ep first and this movie always reminds me of that.

I'd put forward LA Confidential. It deviates wildly from the story of the novel, but absolutely keeps its spirit and themes.

" Shoot ’Em Up was a way over-the-top half-CGI gun opera, its tone set by the scene where Clive
Owen takes out a team of assassins while still fucking Monica Bellucci."

"Snyder’s widely derided 2009 adaptation of the canonical graphic novel Watchmen gets rightly criticized for missing the nuances of the book, but it doesn’t get enough credit for its fight scenes, which are really something."

Where they can team up with Annihilus? Seems like a bad idea.

Black Dahlia is kind of interesting to watch in that it gets so close to doing it right, but yet is a total disaster.

I personally hate the Fifth Element, but if Face/Off and Starship Troopers made it on this list, Fifth Element probably should have too.

Glamdring the Foe-Hammer is the best Tolkien-inspired penis name.

Huh-huh. "Wang."

No, I think Valerian Besson is the man for this job.

"Look, if you had just asked for specific documents and given him sufficient time to destroy them, he would have been happy to tell you the documents don't exist."
