A long march, a long march, and twenty years behind

Look, I don't know Neil Marshall from a poke in the eye with a pilum, but all things being equal, I'd rather see The Eagle of the Ninth. No offense, but General Virilus? Does he have a very great friend in Rome named Biggus Dickus?

(Oh, movies. How is it you can beautifully realize Middle-Earth and still fuck up the Romans on a regular basis?)

Ugh, Centurion looks absolutely horrendous. Wow. It looks halfway decent for a laugh, at least.

On the other hand, Eagle of the Ninth? Eeeeeeeeeeee. I really hope they do it well.

I'll get right on that... here's hoping it works. :)
