The thread of movie titles and absence of badges. In previous episodes, it was signs you're getting older, chiropractic vs. medicine, atheism vs. Mormonism and religion vs. science with no existentialism nor philosophy thrown in

Now, how I got to that one, is interesting.

One of my favorite westerns. Both the modern version and the classic. It would be hard to choose between it and Tombstone.

yep.

Maybe it doesn't count, but the other version is longer than some relationships I had back in my single days.
-
... are you referring to the original (which also counts i guess) or the remake after the one Patrick Stewart was in?
-
Unless a girl holding you to make a guy jealous counts as a relationship.

Near as makes no difference, it is 5 hours in length...

Burdens on Fire
This one might be a little bit of a stretch...took some liberties, and maybe not in the best way...lemme see if I can improve it...

The director's cut of the one I referred to was 295 minutes. A one-night stand without a courtesy breakfast can fall well under that. Or, getting back together with an ex and then realizing before the end of the night why you told them to kick rocks the first time (been there...) could also.

Yeah, "burdens" translating to that, while correct, is a bit of a stretch...

Something with Seats or whatever, or Horse in it just seemed too obvious.

I just think "Dark Knight", but that is plot and not title.

Damn him. "Gotham" got me thinking entirely about Batman. I did not think about it being an analogue for NYC.
-
That's the same thing I was thinking at first, then it just clicked about where Gotham is based off of.

Gotham for NYC is older than Batman.
"New York City," first used by Washington Irving, 1807, based on "Merrie Tales of the Mad Men of Gotham" (1460), a collection of legendary stories of English villagers alternately wise and foolish. There is a village of this name in Nottinghamshire, originally Gatham (1086), in Old English, "Enclosure (literally 'homestead') where goats are kept." It is unknown if this was the place intended.

Oh, that's not a title.

Wasn't "The Hobbitt" basically a pamphlet compared to the others? Or am I crossing neurons on this one?
-
it was.
slightly less than a third the length of the entire trilogy.
havent seen the movie yet so can't speak to that.
-
Yes, a single book similar to any of the other three in length. And those were murdered as far as what they kept in the movie. They cut entirely my favorite chapter (Scouring of the Shire). And the ending still went on forever.
I think they did a fabulous job on all the movies (haven't seen the last one yet) as movies.

You go really esoteric...
Great movie though.
Also, does anyone remember the video game of the same name, based off the same WWII battle?

I dunno...that one was pretty direct.

I knew someone would try that. Keep thinking, genius. This one should be pretty easy.

It might be, if it were not also the exact name of a movie I am familiar with. Kind of hard to forget it with Tommy Lee Jones' absolutely miserable version of an Irish baroque. It might be worse than Liam Neeson in a Western.
