If you're going to depict a fictional city with buildings that defy the laws of physics, you may as well have it attack Gotham City or Springfield.
That reminds of the crossover fanfic I tried to write when I was in the sixth grade about Mr. Burns sending Godzilla to attack the Simpsons while they were sailing on the Titanic II.
My parents heads' will explode when I give them that answer. XD

The reason there are two threads is that my computer was acting up and I just thought my first click hadn't registered, so I clicked the post button again and ended up with a second thread.
Pfft. You just don't want to admit that the barriers between the infinite timelines are breaking down.
I bolded yo mamma.
How about an Ancient Astronauts Disappreciation Thread?
Arachnid homosexuality? Is that legal?
The Little Mermaid (1989) 9.5/10
Toy Story 3 (2010) 8/10
The Valley of Gwangi (1969) 6/10
Ah, go bold youself!
Faye Spalm?
Is this her?

You're sacred of it? Is that an expression I'm unaware of?
I don't recall which thread it was in, but some newcomer(?) used "sacred" instead of "scared" in some discussion about Vader a month or so ago.
What happened to the sole AT-ST that shows up in one shot in TESB? Did it quickly phase in-and-out of Hoth's equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle?
I wouldn't be surprised if TMBTC was an acronym for "taste my big tasty c***" or something along those lines.
^Faceplam.
I would just like to say that I loved the animated series that spun off from the '98 film as a kid, and I'd love to revisit it someday.
The film itself, though ... meh.
I'm sacred of the faceplam.
^Maybe eventually. I should put it out there, though, that I don't like Grant Morisson, and I have yet to read a story from him that doesn't fill me with apathy, hatred, or disgust.
Maybe a character like that exists in one of the non-Roman writing systems.
What causes rainbow colours to show up in striped objects in B&W films/TV shows played on a regular TV?
CROSSFADE TO
Daniel inside his quarters, packing various books and other items of importance into a large trunk.
SUPERIMPOSE: “SIX MONTHS LATER”
As Daniel places two final items – the photo of his foster parents along with a photo of his real ones – in the trunk, he hears a knocking at his door.
DANIEL: (bemused) Yeah, yeah – I’ll be ready in a second.
CATHERINE: (O.S.) It’s me, Daniel.
DANIEL: Oh! (turns to face the door) Come in.
The door opens and Catherine strides in. Closing the door, she crosses her arms across her chest.
CATHERINE: (smirks) I thought you didn’t like to travel.
DANIEL: (grins) I got over it. (losing the grin) Have you heard from Barbara or Meyers?
CATHERINE: (shakes her head) I haven’t been in contact with them since West fired them from the project. Why?
DANIEL: (waves his hand) Nevermind ….
CATHERINE: You’ve been having doubts, haven’t you?
DANIEL: Wouldn’t you?
CATHERINE: West may be pig-headed, but he isn’t stupid. If he had any concerns at all about your ability to decode the alien gate, he wouldn’t have been so quick to put you to the job.
DANIEL: I could have really used Barbara’s expertize, though. She’s an astrophysicist – she’s made it her life’s work to learn the physics behind things like the stargate.
CATHERINE: Understanding how the stargate works isn’t important. Understanding the physics behind the stargate isn’t important. What lies beyond the stargate – that is important. (beat) The first time I saw that ring being dragged out of the dust in Egypt, I knew something like this would happen – that there would be some incredible journey to be taken. And, naturally, I thought it would be I who would take it. (beat) But now I’ve grown a little too long in the tooth, so it’s going to be you instead of me. (beat) It has to be you.
Reaching around her neck, Catherine unfastens the gold pendant from around her neck, handing it over to Daniel.
CATHERINE: This was found with the stargate. It has always brought me luck.
DANIEL: (regards the beautifully crafted medallion) I can’t accept this.
CATHERINE: (begins stroking Daniel’s cheek) Bring it back to me.
Silently, Daniel accepts the gift. Turning the trinket over in his hands, his eyes go over to his desk, upon which rests the beautiful bust of the Egyptian woman.
DANIEL: Wait a second.
Stepping over to his desk, Daniel picks up the valuable piece of art. Turning back to Catherine, he hands her the bust.
DANIEL: You were right – this piece is from the 14th century BC. Take care of her for me.
Smiling, Catherine accepts the bust.

Hard for any movie to have such an impact today, mainly due to the constant leaks, making of's, clips showing key parts of the movie and marketing etc.
Back in 77 I went to the movie and had never even heard of it. I was worried it was going to be a war film and it would give me night-mares!
These days I parctice good film-hygiene to try and enjoy movies more.
I watch no trailers, news items, teasers or anything for a movie I am interested in. Nothing. Then I go see it as early as possible.
I am enjoying movies far far more than I had been over the past few years. It makes it so much more enjoyable when you haven't already heard the lines, seen the effects, know the twists etc.
I think it is why I enjoyed Tron Legacy so much more than my peers, I kept myself in the dark and knew nothing except the images on the posters. It was so much more impressive that way. It was like being a kid again.
Of course, exposing oneself to spoilers allows you to know in advance whether or not a movie is even worth seeing in the first place.
But Matthew Broderick is almost always awesome!
Bumping for the lulz.
Does anyone else think "ROFLMAO" sounds like the noise a cat would make coughing up hairballs?

What is up. With the sentence fragments?
