I enjoyed Reign of Fire muchly based on shirtlessness alone.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
So, wait, are y'all saying there was shirtlessness involved?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

They should've called it Shirts on Fire.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Shirts on Fire and Too Many Beards. Oh, and One Annoying Blonde Chick and a Pretty Good CGI Dragon.

So, wait, are y'all saying there was shirtlessness involved?
In my plan, we are shirtless.

Yeah, Bale could definitely have lost that beard and I would have been happier. IMO, Siddig looked hotter with one, though.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
That movie was basically a bizarro Ralph Lauren campaign, with some random plot elements interspersed. You know, the my-peeps-were-savaged-by-a-dragon look, the beautiful trauma, the char effects on artfully-distressed sweaters, the washboard abs, the tattoos. There were even children, although they were not posed in vaguely pornographic style in their underwear.
I'm only sorry that they had to kill the dragons, and did not get to have telepathic friendships with them (perchance to go riding).
However, there was a pony. Or, more like a Clydesdale. It even survived to the end!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No, no, no.
Reign Of Fire was a presentation of post-colonial dynamics, sans shirts, plus beasties. Really, I might have gone into the social sciences if there were more well-considered lacks of shirts.

If I only had a brain...
Have you ever SEEN an economist naked? Not a pretty sight.

You did catch the "well-considered," right?
