TV/Movies Megathread

[Viking]

War Horse. Not the worst WWI movie ever, because The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles exists. Still, ten million people died in WWI: I don't give a shit that some whiny English kid temporarily lost his pony. Verdict: send it to the glue factory.

TYIJC was a TV show so War Horse is still in the running for worst WWI movie ever.

There was a good one? 

If I'm thinking of the right movie, I thought the orignal was pretty taught in a Dr. Strangelove played straight kind of way.

That's the one in which the US President bravely decides to nuke New York, instead of annihilating the Soviet Union, in order to court the anti-war vote, right? Lame. Thanks, Kennedy.

I only saw it once, in the theaters as a child and never found it again, and I remember loving it.  But I doubt it would hold up as well now.

Margin Call.  Fucking assholes.
Awesome cast.

No kidding.  I think we should have bravely decided to nuke Edinburgh.

Not really a Kennedy composite.  More of an Adlai Stevenson.

And I would've hit Boston instead.

[Ed Anger]

New York for Moscow? good trade.

Down with hipsters.

[Darth Wagtaros]

And the damnyankees.

Fuck that, New York is way more important than Moscow ever was, not even close to an even trade.  Dirt for dirt.  Fenway gets glassed.

Can't tell if you're being serious. 

He nukes NYC so the nuking of Moscow won't set off mutual assured destruction.

Kleves is a Walter Matthau fan.

Should have nuked Baltimore. Fuck the Colts.

In 1964?  No way.  1984?  Why not.

Because nobody would notice.
