  1. No truth to the rumor that it was Robert E. Howard that offed himself. He is spinning in his grave though, over Barak the Barbarian. Fun Fact: Barak (Baraq) was the magic flying pony that Mohammed rode to Jerusalem, then to heaven. Or so they tell me, Islamists wouldn’t lie would they?

  2. Well, there is more than enough nihilism in that story to push fragile minds over the edge.

    I’d love to know what you were thinking by shooting yourself in the MIDDLE of a movie, though. Maybe he’d seen it already, but generally I would assume you’d finish what you start and then finish, well, everything. It’s like George Carlin said, writers would never commit suicide because they would never stop revising the suicide note.

    Yep, musta been the blue penis.

  3. According to imdb.com, the plot is as follows: “When an ex-superhero is murdered, a vigilante named Rorschach begins an investigation into the murder, which begins to lead to a much more terrifying conclusion.”

    Who knew the terrifying conclusion was other viewers shooting themselves.

  4. Reasons why I don’t go to theaters:
    121 Having to wipe blood off the bottom of your shoe, so you don’t stain the mat.
    122 the noisy a**holes in the back killing themselves.

  5. I saw it at an IMAX theater — great special effects and good human interest plotline, but I agree with the review. Would have been an awesome movie if it was more focused on today’s threats. Not some leftist’s perception of the world, where the US is causing the problem.
