Two historians & their little sandbox
We blame Ridley Scott. "Kingdom of Heaven" was just begging to be sporked, and so we did, here and here. We had the time of our lives doing it, and it turned out that fellow geeks other people liked it, so we were quickly resolved to do it again.
Since this is very much a joint-venture undertaking by
cutecoati and
fourth_rose, this journal was created to serve as our common sandbox to play in. Our next victim will be "Gladiator" which will be posted sometime next week. After that, everything's game - classics from the 40ies as well as brand-new blockbusters and all that's in between.
For clarification: we don't spork these movies because we hate them. Quite the contrary. We both have a perverse liking for butchered history, Hollywood-style - all we ask for is that it's fun to watch!
So, we hope you'll enjoy the ride and join into the mocking! And if you've got a favourite history movie that you'd like to see sporked, please leave a suggestion in the comments to this entry. We'll do our best - unless it's Oliver Stone's "Alexander". This one is to be worshipped, not ridiculed ;-)
