You're sure you're not thinking of Kingdom of Heaven, the trailer for which has just come out?
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wasn't Gates of Heaven an Errol Morris documentary about pet cemeteries?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Ah, that must be it then. Hmm, maybe the former got turned around because it's not such a good idea to have two similarly named historical epics coming out too close to one another? Or because investors are gunshy about 'gate" and "heaven" being used in the same movie title?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yes, but I wouldn't be surprised if the same title's been used elsewhere.

Reusing movie titles? The bastards!

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I'm still working on the idea of George Clooney in a skirt.
Also, I don't know how to break it to you all: at Thermopylae, the Spartans lose. A lot.
You know what else? Someone will have to be on set to remind Michael Mann that Spartans do not wear pencil neckties and pastel-colored trousers.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Someone will have to be on set to remind Michael Mann that Spartans do not wear pencil neckties and pastel-colored trousers.
Yeah, that kind of ruined Last of the Mohicans for me.

As long as they sport mullets, I think Mann will be ok.

Yeah, that kind of ruined Last of the Mohicans for me.
OMG! Me too!
Although, come to think, I would far rather Michael Mann's Spartans wore pencil neckties than the get-up the Troy Spartans wore, which just bellowed Starlight Express.
I don't even know if George Clooney knows how to rollerskate.

I saw a trailer for Vin Diesel in some Disney thing or other. He seems to be trying to work the Aaaaanold in Kindergarten Cop thing. Wonder if Vin's interested in politics?
