Because books.

I've decided that Zack Snyder's demographic is pretty exclusively 13 year-old boys, and that I should just stop bothering to be interested in anything he produces.

I thought his remake of Dawn of the Dead was fantastic. And 300 was technically really cool, and mostly coherent. But it's been all downhill from there.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I KNOW, Anne! Gorgeousness and weirdness in one fun package!

Is Suckerpunch based on a graphic novel or is it just trying to look like it is?

move out and draw fire

I've had that same question, sj. Based on reading the reviews I'd say no, but the logo desgin seems too good for Hollywood.

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

James Van Der Beek makes a movie with Sam Elliot. Antonio Banderas and Snoop Dogg star. Cosmic sex happens.

I am curious.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I really liked Watchmen

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I liked it too, Laga. And I liked Dawn of the Dead. But 300 was surprisingly boring.

Would 300 have been a good movie in a language you did not speak?

Dawn of the Dead is probably the movie that turned me into a true horror fan. I didn't enjoy 300 much but I'm glad I saw it so I could really appreciate Robot Chicken's 1776.

"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

I enjoyed it, but that was due to a combination of the art direction, cinematography, and Gerard Butler's personal trainer.
