Pestis the Spider she/her Posted October 2, 2015 Posted October 2, 2015 Social Network? I've just watched it, maybe that's why...
Shrike76 he/him Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 It's been a day and I'm still drawing a blank. Book, movie, comic, song?
Shrike76 he/him Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Madness! And I've been humming Christmas carols for the last hour, thanks very much... Okay, new description: A tired old king steals from another in an attempt to reclaim his former glory
Shrike76 he/him Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Okay, new description: A tired old king steals from another in an attempt to reclaim his former glory No guesses or is nobody around? Hint #1: Movie
Robinski he/him Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Troy? No, that's not right. It wasn't the king who stole Helen. Or was it, and then Orloondo Bland 'stole' her from the king? Edited October 4, 2015 by Robinski
Shrike76 he/him Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Nope. The movie is a good two decades older than Troy.
Young Bard he/him Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 1980's film - one king steals from another to reclaim his former glory. Is 'king' literal or metaphorical?
Shrike76 he/him Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I was incorrect (Troy is older than I thought by about quite a bit. Time flies...). The difference is far closer to one decade than two. Mostly literal. The character refers to himself as King in one song during the film. In other songs, other characters refer to him similarly.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Is this movie live action or animated?
Shrike76 he/him Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 The Nightmare Before Christmas What's this? What's this? The answer's in the air Very much so. I thought I'd follow one seasonal movie question with another. You get to badly describe the next, Sera.
Sera Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Aha! Ok, next one: Led by a priest, a group of extraordinary foul-mouthed orphans find themselves facing an evil king.
Sera Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 The lies of Locke Lamora! That was fast! Your turn.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I loved that book. But yeah it was filthy. A young famr boy, who is secretly the heir to the throne, sets off on a quest to save the realm. Edited October 5, 2015 by The Only Joe
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 The Codex Alera? Dang. I expected that one to take longer. You win.
