WHY DID NONE OF YOU TELL ME ABOUT HELLO TAILOR BEFORE?
"For me, gritty superhero adaptations can sometimes work, but gritty fairytales? Not so much. Just look at Russell Crowe's Robin Hood, which removed everything that was ever charming or appealing about Robin Hood and replaced it with endless footage of Russell Crowe glaring at mud. The greatest source of tension in that movie was me desperately waiting for Russell Crowe to take a bath because he clearly smelled so bad, but that never happened. Even when Cate Blanchett's servants poured him a bath he just splashed some of the water on his face and was like, "well, I guess that takes care of all the Saracen blood I've accrued over the past decade of war-mongering". HE NEVER DID TAKE THAT BATH, YOU GUYS."
There's lots of Avengers costume neepery there if you haven't been linked yet. I haven't read that yet as I'm planning on doling it out slowly over the course of the day as I need mini-breaks from work. I'm o a BIG FINAL PUSH to get this site the hell designed and NOTHING WILL GET IN MY WAY except you guys continuously posting interesting links to go look at for hours and houra I HATE YOU SOMETIMES YOU KNOW?
Also, I am logging out of email except for those said mini-breaks so that I don't get sucked into comment replies, so replies may be slow. :)
