"Mothman Prophecies? Oh dear..."

pb you villain, been talking this movie up for a while, sounded good.

So I did some research about this movie.
What you, and everyone else, neglected to mention that it's about a big moth.
Like Arthur in The Tic.
*wiggles fingers* OOooooo, scary!

And, worst of all, it stars small-eyed Richard Gere.
Which instantly removes any possibility of it being
(a) Interesting
(b) Scary
(c) Any good at all.

Who lets Richard Gere peer about in their movies?

I like films with Killer Bees.

*silence*

I'll go away now.

Or Attack of the 50ft Woman.

She does absolutely nothing. I think she kills a few men, and then gets on a spaceship, or something. Utterly pointless.

But then, I wasn't entirely surprised when the woman suddenly became grew a few more feet and became the star of the title.

I can understand why you could have thought Mothman was something else though.

A dark soul that murders people that likes to put dead moths down his victims throats...

...Or has that been done before? :0)

But you don't see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want to see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When will I see the Moth, Mummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????????

See, I would think you're joking, but I always think you're joking when you say stuff as absurd as this.

A moth. And it's big.

Can't I just watch Attack of the Killer Thrushes or BEWARE: KINGFISHERS?

I'd settle for seeing Gere's eyes in a movie.

I don't trust a man that has no apparent means of vision.

Yeah, I was really disappointed buy that ;(. I wanted to see a man in a moth costume, but noooooo, Hollywood are having none of that. Apparently the movie was toned down to allow for Gere's Buddhist beliefs. Well screw Gere and Buddha! I want my Mothman.

I wasn't really saying anything about the movie, which is a really bad interpretation of a book, I was talking about the phenomena. The movie is pretty dire, as you may imagine. It doesn't even have the mothman in it anyway. Bah!

The Rothman Prophecies

Coming to a cinema near you soon, the tale of strange disturbances in newsagents all over East Anglia.

Starting back in June 1996 in Ipswich a packet of Rothmans Royals, the blue ones, fell from their position on the stand. When the attendent went to pick them up, a second packet fell on her head, alarming her slightly.

Months later, in Ramsey, a newsagent was left 'puzzled' when 20 Rothmans were found in the packet upside down. He has still yet to give a full account of this, unable to accurately recall the day. Could there be something more behind this?

In Great Yarmouth at the turn of the Century a newsagent was shocked to discover 3 cigarettes missing from his packet. His teenage daughter denies any knowledge of this, but strangley reeked of cigarette smoke. Yet another strange occurance regarding Rothmans.

Now, set in modern day Bedford the Rothman Prophecies seem to be spreading. A truckload of Rothman's cigarettes is travelling down the A128, driven by Richard Gere, unaware of the strange occurencies that are about to occur...

lol

Never really noticed the squinty eyes thing, I obviously don't watch as many Richard Gere films as you!

"Oh no, The Mothman approaches, he will kill us for sure!"

"No, I am a small-eyed actor of limited ability, I shall save us!"

Richard Gere turns on a lighthouse.
Mothman proceeds to bump into the beam

"Ha ha, he is easily distracted by the big light!"

Gere smashes Mothman to pieces with a massive newspaper of righteousness.

"Hah, I have defeated the Mothman. Now I shall squint and run my hands through my hair"

"Hurrah for Richard Gere!"

THE END.
